Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view, inspect and ask for written condition reports before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to the lot.

Neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition, size or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, and hereby excluded. All lots remain sold completely 'as is' - irrespective of any description, and no refund shall be issued on any lot where matters arising to condition are raised.

Auctioneum Ltd or its agents are not liable for any injury, damage or loss relating to use of any electrical item. Based upon guidance from Trading Standards, plugs, cables and power leads will be removed prior to sale. No guarantees, warranties or similar are implied nor given on the working ability or electrical safety of any item. 

 (4) Measurements and Sizes - any measurements or stated sizes should be assumed as 'approximate' where given, and buyers are specifically requested to check sizes match their expectations prior to bidding. 

 (5) Clocks & Watches:

Originality & Inspection:
We do not provide opinions on the originality of component parts, accompanying documentation, boxes, or any additional material related to clocks and watches. Potential buyers are strongly advised to physically inspect the items in person before placing a bid, as we will not accept returns based on factors such as originality, completeness, or working condition.
