7. The goods are sold in the condition in which they are at the time of the surcharge.
8. All information, whether in writing, digitally or orally provided by us, is purely informative and not binding. They are only an opinion and are provided to the best of our knowledge and conscience. The buyer is assumed to personally verify the condition, nature, date, in short, the overall condition of the goods during the exhibition days. On request, all facilities for further expertise are provided. Therefore, after the surcharge, no complaint will be accepted in connection with condition, nature, description in the catalog, date, etc., nor will the buyer be able to invoke his relationship of trust with the auction house.
9. Customers buyers should consider possible visual deviations in the photos displayed on screens, printed matter and other media. We strive to convey as realistic a picture as possible. Nevertheless, deviations occur due to differences in contrast, brightness, saturation and type of screen or degree of gloss, light incidence and ambient colors. Colors and color description have to do with individual perception and no rights can be derived from this. Lens distortion is also possible. Returns on color deviations and lens distortion can therefore not be accepted.
10. If an interested party damages a property to be auctioned, he must make this known. Failure to do so may give rise to legal proceedings. If the auctioneer deems it necessary, the person will be required to pay compensation in the amount of the high estimate, plus 27.5%.
11. After the surcharge, everyone is responsible for their own property. No goods will be handed out to buyers during the auction. This is not always possible on the day of the auction itself.
12. Every buyer must identify himself correctly. A bid number can be obtained during the viewing days and before the auction. During the auction you can contact the secretariat. However, we strongly recommend that you provide yourself with a buyer number in a timely manner to avoid delays during the auction. The identification includes, but is not necessarily limited to, the retention of a copy of the identity document and personal data. We handle this discreetly and do not pass this information on to third parties. They can be viewed and adjusted at your request, as well as removed from our database.
13. One is supposed to buy at one's own expense. In the event of non-payment of the goods assigned to him/her, one cannot rely on a client. The making of an offer is binding.
14. In the event of a dispute, during the auction, of any kind, only the working bailiff / notary is authorized to settle the disputes immediately and this in the last instance and without recourse.
15. For original art, of which the author is either a living artist (from the E.U.) or for 70 years after the year of his/her death, a resale right is payable on the hammer price from € 2,000.

However, the maximum amount of the right may not exceed € 12500.

All information about resale rights in Belgium can be found on www.resaleright.be.

Goods that are not collected within 14 calendar days after the auction date are subject to a storage fee of 1.50 Euro per item per day, even if payment has been made. This cannot be waived, unless the buyer contacts us to agree on an exact date for collection, within a period deemed reasonable by us, and we expressly agree to waive the storage costs.

The order of packaging/shipment is the same as the order of payment. We work together with various companies: De Post, Post.NL (TNT) and DHL/Fedex/UPS. When using a courier service (DHL/Fedex/UPS), only the cost price for packaging will be charged and you must provide the collection by the courier service yourself. This service is offered to you by us as an additional service, but all risks associated with this remain at the expense of the buyer. Even when insurance has been taken out, it does not intervene in all cases. When this intervenes, the full purchase amount is not always covered.

19. Both Belgian and foreign bidders can bid by telephone, online or by means of a written bid. We cannot guarantee that the connection by telephone or online bidding option is always perfect and therefore recommend that you also have a written offer recorded, so that you do not suffer any disadvantage in the event of abuse. You can also book a telephone line without obligation while still bidding online, so as not to take any risks. Foreign buyers must disclose their full identity to us no later than 24 hours before the auction.
