Auctioneer and Auction:
This Auction is presented by Lone Star Art Auction, a d/b/a/ of Great American West, LLC (“Auctioneer”). The Auction is conducted under these Terms and Conditions and applicable state and local law. Announcements and corrections from the podium and those made through the Terms and Conditions appearing on the Internet at lonestarartauction.com supersede those in the printed catalog. Auctioneer Jason Brooks, State of Texas License Number 16216, will preside over the Auction.
Buyer’s Premium:
All bids are subject to a Buyer’s Premium which is in addition to the placed successful bid otherwise defined as the Hammer Price. Following is the Buyer’s Premium Schedule for the Auction: 20% for Live In-Person Bidding, Telephone Bidding, and Absentee or Proxy Bidding. 20% for Online Bidding on the Auction website at lonestarartauction.com. 25% for Online Bidding on Bidsquare and LiveAuctioneers.
Bidders:
1. Any person participating or registering for the Auction agrees to be bound by and accepts these Terms and Conditions (“Bidder(s)”).
2. All Bidders must meet Auctioneer’s qualifications to bid. Any Bidder who is not a client in good standing of the Auctioneer may be disqualified at Auctioneer’s sole option and will not be awarded lots. Such determination may be made by Auctioneer in its sole and unlimited discretion, at any time prior to, during, or even after the close of the Auction. Auctioneer reserves the right to exclude any person from the auction.
3. If an entity places a bid, then the person executing the bid on behalf of the entity agrees to personally guarantee payment for any successful bid.
Credit:
In order to place bids, Bidders who have not established credit with the Auctioneer must either furnish satisfactory credit information (including two collectibles-related business references) or supply valid credit card information along with a social security number, well in advance of the Auction. Bidders should preregister at least two business days before the start of the Auction (exclusive of holidays or weekends) to allow adequate time to contact references. Credit will be granted at the discretion of Auctioneer. Additionally, Bidders who have not previously established credit or who wish to bid in excess of their established credit history may be required to provide their social security number or the last four digits thereof so a credit check may be performed prior to Auctioneer’s acceptance of a bid. Check writing privileges and immediate delivery of merchandise may also be determined by pre-approval of credit based on a combination of criteria: Auctioneer history, related industry references, bank verification, a credit bureau report and/or a personal guarantee for a corporate or partnership entity in advance of the auction venue.
Bidding Options:
1. Presentment of Bids: Non-Internet bids (including but not limited to podium, phone, and mail bids) are treated similar to floor bids in that they must be on-increment or at a half increment (called a cut bid). Any podium, phone, or mail bids that do not conform to a full or half increment will be rounded up to the nearest full or half increment and this revised amount will be considered your high bid.
2. Auctioneer’s Execution of Certain Bids. Auctioneer cannot be responsible for your errors in bidding, so carefully check that every
bid is entered correctly. When identical mail bids are submitted, preference is given to the first received. To ensure the greatest accuracy, your written bids should be entered on the standard printed bid sheet and be received at Auctioneer’s place of business at least two business days before the Auction start. Auctioneer is not responsible for executing mail bids received on or after the day the first lot is sold, nor Internet bids submitted after the published closing time; nor is Auctioneer responsible for proper execution of bids submitted by telephone, mail, e-mail, Internet, or in person once the Auction begins. Bids placed electronically via the Internet may not be withdrawn until your written request is received and acknowledged by Auctioneer. Such requests must state the reason and may constitute grounds for withdrawal of bidding privileges. Lots won by mail Bidders will not be delivered at the Auction unless prearranged.
3. Caveat as to Bid Increments. Bid increments (over the current bid level) determine the lowest amount you may bid on a particular lot. Bids greater than one increment over the current bid can be any whole dollar amount. It is possible under several circumstances for winning bids to be between increments, sometimes only $1 above the previous increment. Bids will be accepted in whole dollar amounts only. No “buy” or “unlimited” bids will be accepted.
The following chart governs current bidding increments.
Current Bid Increment:
Under $2,000 $100
$2,000 – $5,000 $250
$5,000 – $10,000 $500
$10,000 – $20,000 $1,000
$20,000 – $50,000 $2,500
$50,000 – $100,000 $5,000
Over $100,000 $10,000
4. If Auctioneer calls for a full increment, a bidder may request Auctioneer to accept a bid at half of the increment (“Cut Bid”) only once per lot. After offering a Cut Bid, bidders may continue to participate only at full increments. If the Auctioneer solicits bids other than the expected increment, these bids will not be considered Cut Bids.
Conducting the Auction:
1. The highest qualified Bidder recognized by the Auctioneer shall be the Buyer. In the event of a tie bid, the earliest bid received or recognized wins. In the event of any dispute between any Bidders at an Auction, Auctioneer may at his sole discretion reoffer the lot. Auctioneer’s decision and declaration of the winning Bidder shall be final and binding upon all Bidders. Bids properly offered, whether by floor Bidder or other means of bidding, may on occasion be missed or go unrecognized; in such cases, the Auctioneer may declare the recognized bid accepted as the winning bid, regardless of whether a competing bid may have been higher. Auctioneer reserves the right after the hammer falls to accept bids and reopen bidding for bids placed through the Internet or otherwise.
2. Auctioneer reserves the right to refuse to honor any bid or to limit the amount of any bid, in its sole discretion. A bid is considered not made in “Good Faith” when made by an insolvent or irresponsible person, a person under the age of eighteen, or is not supported by satisfactory credit, collectibles references, or otherwise. Regardless of the disclosure of his identity, any bid by a consignor or his agent on a lot consigned by him is deemed to be made in “Good Faith.” Any person apparently appearing on the OFAC list is not eligibleto bid.
3. Nominal Bids. The Auctioneer in its sole discretion may reject nominal bids, small opening bids, or very nominal advances. If a lot bearing estimates fails to open for 40–60% of the low estimate, the Auctioneer may pass the item or may place a protective bid on behalf of the consignor.
4. Lots bearing bidding estimates shall open at Auctioneer’s discretion (approximately 50%-60% of the low estimate). In the event that no bid meets or exceeds that opening amount, the lot shall pass as unsold.
5. All items are to be purchased per lot as numerically indicated and no lots will be broken. Auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw, prior to the close, any lots from the Auction.
6. Auctioneer reserves the right to rescind the sale in the event of non-payment, breach of a warranty, disputed ownership, auctioneer’s clerical error or omission in exercising bids and reserves, or for
any other reason and in Auctioneer’s sole discretion. In cases of nonpayment, Auctioneer’s election to void a sale does not relieve the Bidder from their obligation to pay Auctioneer its fees (seller’s and buyer’s premiums) and any other damages or expenses pertaining to the lot.
7. Auctioneer occasionally experiences Internet and/or Server service outages, and Auctioneer periodically schedules system downtime for maintenance and other purposes, during which Bidders cannot participate or place bids. If such outages occur, we may at our discretion extend bidding for the Auction. Bidders unable to place their Bids through the Internet are directed to contact the Auctioneer at (469) 608-7600.
8. The Auctioneer, its affiliates, or their employees consign items to be sold in the Auction and may bid on those lots or any other lots. Auctioneer or affiliates expressly reserve the right to modify any such bids at any time prior to the hammer based upon data made known to the Auctioneer or its affiliates. The Auctioneer may extend advances, guarantees, or loans to certain consignors.
9. The Auctioneer has the right to sell certain unsold items after the close of the Auction. Such lots shall be considered sold during the Auction and all these Terms and Conditions shall apply to such sales including but not limited to the Buyer’s Premium, return rights, and disclaimers.
Payment:
1. All sales are strictly in United States dollars and accepted methods of payment include personal checks, commercial checks, and bank wire, and are subject to all reporting requirements. Authorized MasterCard, Visa and Discover credit card payments are accepted but are limited to a maximum total of $10,000.00 U.S. dollars for the auction. These credit cards are also accepted with the convenience fee charge of 3.0% added to the total purchase amount (hammer price plus Buyer’s premium). All deliveries are subject to good funds; funds being received in Auctioneer’s account before delivery of the Purchases; and all payments are subject to a clearing period. Auctioneer reserves the right to determine if a check constitutes “good funds”: checks drawn on a U.S. bank are subject to a ten business day hold, and thirty days when drawn on an international bank. Clients with prearranged credit status may receive immediate credit for payments via eCheck, personal, or corporate checks. All others will be subject to a hold of five (5) days, or more, for the funds to clear prior to releasing merchandise.
2. Payment is due upon closing of the Auction session, or upon presentment of an invoice. Invoices will be emailed to all successful online bidders by October 15, 2024. Auctioneer reserves the right to void an invoice if payment in full is not received within seven (7) days after the close of the Auction. In cases of nonpayment, Auctioneer’s election to void a sale does not relieve the Bidder from their obligation to pay Auctioneer its fees (seller’s and buyer’s premiums) on the lot and any other damages pertaining to the lot or Auctioneer, at its option, may charge a twenty (20%) restock fee on the amount of the purchase and offset the restock fee against any monies paid to the Auctioneer or against any of the purchaser’s properties held by the Auctioneer.
3. Lots delivered to you, or your representative, are subject to all applicable state and local taxes, unless appropriate permits are on file with Auctioneer. Bidder agrees to pay Auctioneer the actual amount of tax due in the event that sales tax is not properly collected due to 1) an expired, inaccurate, or inappropriate tax certificate or declaration, 2) an incorrect interpretation of the applicable statute, 3) or any other reason. The appropriate form or certificate must be on file at and verified by Auctioneer five (5) days prior to Auction, or tax must be paid; only if such form or certificate is received by Auctioneer within four (4) days after the Auction can a refund of tax paid be made.
4. In the event that a Bidder’s payment is dishonored upon presentment(s), Bidder shall pay the maximum statutory processing fee set by applicable state law. If you attempt to pay via eCheck and your financial institution denies this transfer from your bank account, or the payment cannot be completed using the selected funding source, you agree to complete payment using another acceptable form of payment.
5. If any Auction invoice submitted by Auctioneer is not paid in full when due, the unpaid balance will bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law from the date of invoice until paid. Any invoice not paid when due will bear a three percent (3%) late fee on the invoice amount. If the Auctioneer refers any invoice to an attorney for collection, the buyer agrees to pay attorney’s fees, court costs, and other collection costs incurred by Auctioneer.
6. In the event a successful Bidder fails to pay any amounts due, Auctioneer reserves the right to sell the lot(s) securing the invoice to any under-bidders in the Auction that the lot(s) appeared, or at subsequent private or public sale, or re-list the lot(s) in a future auction conducted by Auctioneer. A defaulting Bidder agrees to pay for the reasonable costs of resale (including a 20% seller’s commission, if consigned to an auction conducted by Auctioneer). The defaulting Bidder is liable to pay any difference between his total original invoice for the lot(s), plus any applicable interest, and the net proceeds for the lot(s) if sold at private sale or the subsequent hammer price of the lot(s) less the 20% seller’s commission, if sold at an Auctioneer’s auction.
7. Auctioneer reserves the right to require payment in full in good funds before delivery of the merchandise.
8. Auctioneer shall have a lien against the merchandise purchased by the buyer to secure payment of the Auction invoice. Auctioneer is further granted a lien and the right to retain possession of any other property of the buyer then held by the Auctioneer or its affiliates to secure payment of any Auction invoice or any other amounts due the Auctioneer or affiliates from the buyer. With respect to these lien rights, Auctioneer shall have all the rights of a secured creditor under Article 9 of the Texas Uniform Commercial Code, including but not limited to the right of sale (including a 20% seller’s commission, if consigned to an auction conducted by Auctioneer). In addition, with respect to payment of the Auction invoice(s), the buyer waives all rights of offset he might otherwise have against the Auctioneer and the consignor of the merchandise included on the invoice. If a Bidder owes Auctioneer or its affiliates on any account, Auctioneer and its affiliates shall have the right to offset such unpaid account by any credit balance due Bidder, and it may secure by possessory lien any unpaid amount by any of the Bidder’s property in their possession.
9. Title shall not pass to the successful Bidder until all invoices are paid in full. It is the responsibility of the buyer to provide adequate insurance coverage for the items once they have been delivered to a common carrier or third-party shipper.
Delivery, Shipping and Handling Charges:
1. Buyer is liable for shipping, handling, registration, and renewal fees, if any. Lots won will be shipped in a commercially reasonable time after payment in good funds for the merchandise and the shipping fees are received or credit extended, except when third-party shipment occurs. Buyer agrees that Service and Handling charges related to shipping items which are not prepaid, may be charged to the credit card on file with Auctioneer.
2. Successful international Bidders shall provide written shipping instructions, including specified customs declarations, to the Auctioneer for any lots to be delivered outside of the United States. NOTE: Declaration value shall be the item’(s) hammer price together with its buyer’s premium and Auctioneer shall use the correct harmonized code for the lot. Domestic Buyers on lots designated for third-party shipment must designate the common carrier, accept risk of loss, and prepay shipping costs.
3. All shipping charges will be borne by the successful Bidder. On all domestic shipments, any risk of loss during shipment will be borne by the Auctioneer until the shipping carrier’s confirmation of delivery to the address of record in Auctioneer’s file (carrier’s confirmation is conclusive to prove delivery to Bidder; if the client has a Signature release on file with the carrier, the package is considered delivered without Signature) or delivery by the Auctioneer to Bidder’s selected third-party shipper. On all foreign shipments, any risk of loss during shipment will be borne by the Bidder following Auctioneer’s delivery to the Bidder’s designated common carrier or third-party shipper.
4. Due to the nature of some items sold, it shall be the responsibility for the successful Bidder to arrange pick-up and shipping through third parties as to such items Auctioneer shall have no liability. Failure to pick-up or arrange shipping in a timely fashion (within ten days) shall subject Lots to storage and moving charges, including a $100 administration fee plus $10 daily storage for larger items and $5.00 daily for smaller items (storage fee per item) after 35 days. In the event the Lot is not removed within ninety days, the Lot may be offered for sale to recover any past due storage
or moving fees, including a 20% Seller’s Commission.
5. Auctioneer shall not be liable for any loss caused by or resulting from: a. Seizure or destruction under quarantine or Customs regulation, or confiscation by order of any Government or public authority, or risks of contraband or illegal transportation of trade, or b. Breakage of statuary, marble, and similar fragile articles.
6. Any request for shipping verification for undelivered packages must be made within 30 days of shipment by Auctioneer.
