BUYER’S TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Please read these Terms and Conditions
The following are the Terms upon which Authenticated Internet Auctions (‘AIA’) auctions a lot (‘the Lot’) on its website at http://www.authenticatedinternetauctions.com or any subsequent URL used by AIA from time to time (‘the website’):
AIA’s Role
AIA act as auctioneers of the Lot for the seller of the Lot (‘the Seller’).
At the time of the auction, the Lot will not be in the possession of AIA, as it is the responsibility of the Seller to retain the Lot until the Lot is delivered to the successful buyer. Save for carrying out the 360 degree photography of the Lot, AIA’s knowledge in relation to the Lot is dependent upon information provided to it by the Seller.
The contract for the sale of the Lot is made between you and the Seller for whom AIA acts as agent only. The obligations to you arising under the Contract for sale to you are therefore the Seller’s obligations and not AIA’s obligations.
AIA reserves the right to change these Terms and Conditions at any time. Amendments will take effect when posted on the website. The date of the Terms and Conditions are stated at the top of the Terms and Conditions. However, the Terms and Conditions current at the start of a transaction will apply until that transaction is completed.
AIA reserves the right to modify or withdraw the website (or any part) at any time without notice.
The Lots
AIA uses 360 degree photography to display a Lot from multiple angles on the website. AIA warrants that the photographs of the Lot on the website or in the catalogue have not been airbrushed or altered in any way.
AIA warrants for a period of five years from the date of the sale of the Lot that if the Lot is stated without qualification to be the lot of a named author that the Lot is authentic and not a forgery. This warranty is subject to the following provisos:
The warranty does not apply where:
a scientific process not generally accepted for use until after the publication of the Lot on the website or catalogue; or
a process which at the date of the publishing of the Lot on the website or catalogue was unreasonably expensive or impractical or likely to have caused damage to the Lot or reduce the value of the Lot is the only means of demonstrating the correct identification of the Lot.
The warranty does not apply where the description of the Lot on the website or catalogue corresponded to the generally accepted opinion of scholars or experts at the date of the sale or the description fairly indicated that there was a conflict of opinions.
The benefits of the warranty are not assignable and shall apply only to the original buyer of the Lot and the original buyer must have remained the owner of the Lot without disposing of any interest in it to a third party.
The Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy against AIA and the Seller shall be the cancellation of the sale and the refund of the Sale Price paid. AIA and the Seller shall not be liable for any indirect or consequential losses.
The Buyer must give written notice of the claim to AIA within five years of the date of the auction. AIA shall have the right to require the buyer to obtain the written opinions of two recognised experts in the field mutually acceptable to AIA and the Buyer, before AIA decides whether or not to cancel the sale under the warranty.
The Buyer must return the Lot to AIA in the same condition as at the time of the sale.
Save for the warranties set out in clauses 6 and 7 above, the Seller takes sole responsibility for any faults or defects in the Lot and for anything stated on the website in relation to the Lot including but not limited to any description of the Lot, its condition, ownership or authenticity.
The Lot is sold subject to the condition report for the Lot and subject to all reservations contained therein. You acknowledge that the Lot may not be in perfect condition and that no promise is made that the Lot is fit for any particular purpose.
The Auction
AIA will accept bids from online bidders through the website, from telephone bidders or by absentee written bids in accordance with the terms set out below.
Online bids for the Lot shall be submitted by commission bid through the website using Live Auctioneers bidding platform in accordance with Live Auctioneers terms and conditions (or through such other bidding platform as AIA decides from time to time).
Telephone bids are to be confirmed by the bidder with AIA’s bid department at least 24 hours before the auction on +44 (0)207 137 663. Telephone bids may be recorded and by bidding on the telephone you consent to our recording the conversation.
Absentee bid forms are available on our website and in the catalogue. You shall submit absentee bid forms to AIA at least 24 hours before the auction, although AIA retains a discretion to accept absentee bids at a later time prior to the auction. If AIA receives more than one absentee bid for a Lot for identical amounts which are the highest bids at the auction, the Lot will be sold to the person whose bid was received and accepted first.
AIA have sole and absolute discretion to determine whether any bid has been received, and the time at which any such bid has been received. AIA’s decision is final and binding in relation to such matters. AIA reserves the right to reject any bid and may require the production of bank details from which payment will be made or other financial references.
The Lot may be subject to a reserve which shall be no higher than the lower pre-estimate of the Lot. A sale of the Lot shall not take place if the highest bid is lower than the reserve. AIA is authorised to bid for the Lot on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the reserve. In accordance with common auction practice bids placed on behalf of the seller will not be identified.
Provided that the reserve is met (and subject always to clause 14 hereof), the first highest bidder for the Lot shall be the Buyer of the Lot (‘the Buyer’) and that first highest bid shall be the Sale Price.
AIA shall notify the first highest bidder that he is the Buyer of the Lot as soon as reasonably practicable after the auction period ends.
For higher value lots AIA may, at our discretion, also ask you to provide a bank reference and/or deposit.
Preservation of the Integrity of AIA
For the purposes of the preservation of its integrity, AIA reserves the right to withdraw any Lot from its website, the catalogue and/or the auction/bidding process at any time entirely at its sole discretion.
Payment
Within 10 days of AIA emailing or otherwise sending an invoice to the Buyer, the Buyer shall pay to AIA in pounds sterling:
the Sale Price; and
the Buyer’s Premium due to AIA which is calculated at 15% of the Hammer Price on absentee or telephone bids and 18% on Internet bids plus any applicable VAT; and
if the Artist’s Resale Right Regulations 2006 apply to the Lot, the Buyer also agrees to pay an amount equal to the resale royalty provided for in those Regulations.

AIA has the right to cancel the sale of the Lot.

AIA may release the name and address of the Buyer to the Seller to enable the Seller to commence legal proceedings to recover all sums properly due

The Buyer shall be responsible for the packing, handling and transport costs of the delivery of the Lot to the Buyer.

Copyright
The copyright in all images and written material produced by or for AIA relating to a Lot shall remain at all times the property of AIA and shall not be used by the Buyer nor by anyone else without AIA’s prior written consent. AIA and the Seller make no representation or warranty that the buyer of a Lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights in it.

7 Breach by the buyer
7.1 If you fail to pay the Price in full (or if we agree with you payment by set instalments and you fail to pay any one or more instalment) by the due date, or if prior to you paying the Price in full you fail to comply with the obligations set out in clauses 5 and 6 above, or otherwise do or fail to do anything which may in any way imperil our ownership of the Work or the Work itself, we are entitled (without prejudice to our other rights and remedies at law) to either:

or
7.1.2 at our election, treat the sale as cancelled, and repossess the Work, in which case (and only in which case) we shall following the safe return of the Work, refund to you any part of the Price you have paid, after deduction of any sums due to us including but not limited to costs of recovery and restoration of the Work.
7.2 We shall also have the right to repossess the Work and cancel the sale if before you make full payment of the Price to us, proceedings occur in the UK or elsewhere involving your solvency (including but not limited to the presentation of a bankruptcy petition or winding-up petition; or the convening of a meeting to wind you up voluntarily).

8 Limitation of our liability
We shall not be liable for loss of profits (whether direct or indirect), loss of business, loss of anticipated savings or for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential loss or damage, if any and to the fullest extent permitted by law, which you may suffer in connection with buying the Work. Any liability to you for breach of our obligations whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, shall be limited to the Price paid for the Work (excluding any delivery costs and VAT) provided that nothing in this clause 8 limits or excludes our liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence or any of our agents; and/or (b) fraud.
9 Rescission
We will have the right, but not the obligation, (acting reasonably) to rescind a sale without notice to you, where an adverse claim is made by a third party, including but not limited to, someone claiming ownership of the Work. Upon notice of our election to rescind the sale, you will promptly return the Work to us. We will then refund the Price. The refund of the Price will constitute your sole remedy and recourse against us with respect to such claims.
