Rago Arts and Auction Center (Hereafter referred to as “the Auction
House”). 609-397-9374 (p) / 609-397-9377 (f)
All bidders are responsible for reading and understanding these
Terms of Sale, as well as any supplemental notices. If you have any
questions after having read the Terms of Sale, please contact the
C.E.O., Miriam Tucker, at mtucker@ragoarts.com or 609.397.9374,
extension 141.
All items in our Unreserved Auctions are “As-Is, Where-Is.”
1. General
Each lot in this catalogue is offered for sale subject to the terms set
out below, as changed or supplemented by provisions a) written in
other places within these Terms of Sale, b) in written supplements to
this Catalogue or other materials prepared by us and c) as stated by
the auctioneer or posted in writing at the auction, prior to a bid being
accepted for a lot. No other communications by any employee of the
Auction House is intended to be binding, and such communications
are made for informational purposes only. By bidding at the auction
the buyer and all bidders agree to be bound by these terms or those
changed and supplemented, whether bidding in person, through a
representative, by phone, by internet, or other absentee bid.
Upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the successful bidder
becomes the buyer and owner of the property and is responsible for
the property, the amount of the successful bid, the buyer’s premium,
applicable taxes, and other charges provided for in the Terms of Sale
in U.S. Dollars, payable immediately.
The thirty (30) day warranty shall commence on the date of sale and
continue to run without any tolling even if the Buyer within that
thirty (30) day period 1) fails to inspect or pay, 2) requests delay in
shipment, 3) provides incorrect shipping address or information or 4)
is unavailable to receive shipment.
Sales Results: Preliminary results will be available online shortly
after each sale at www.ragoarts.com. Final sales results will be
available as soon as the Auction House has audited and verified all
sales, usually within one day of the auction.
The Auction House retains all rights to photographs and other
intellectual property contained in this catalogue.
2. Auctioneer’s Determination Final
A lot will be sold to the highest bidder as determined in the sole and
exclusive judgment of the auctioneer. The auctioneer will also have
the sole and exclusive power and authority to a) resolve any disputes
between bidders, b) determine whether to pass or re-offer a lot for
sale, c) reject or challenge any bid or advance in the bidding, d)
exclude any bidder from the premises and e) otherwise regulate the
bidders, the bidding and its increments.
3. Buyer’s Premium, Purchase Price, Taxes, and Billing
For purchases made in the room or by phone or by absentee bid
and paid for by check, cash, money order or wire transfer: A buyer’s
premium will be applied to the hammer price of each lot equal to 25%
on the first $200,000; 20% between $200,000 and $3 million.
For purchases made in the room or by phone or by absentee bid and
paid for by Visa, MasterCard, Discover or PayPal: A 2% surcharge
will be added to the total invoice (hammer price, buyer’s premium as
above, any applicable taxes).
For purchases made through any online bidding platform, regardless
of means of payment: A buyer’s premium will be applied to the
hammer price of each lot equal to 28% on the first $200,000; 23%
between $200,000 and $3 million.
Taxes: If you are shipping to a New Jersey address or if you pick up
the lots you have won at our New Jersey location, you must pay the
State’s 7% sales tax. The only exception is for those who hold a valid
resale license and file the completed New Jersey State Sales Tax
Form (New Jersey Seller’s Certificate Form ST3 or Non New Jersey
Seller’s Certificate Form ST-3NR) with Rago at time of payment. No
New Jersey sales tax is charged for purchases shipped out of state.
Billing: All successful bidders will be sent invoices by e-mail or mail
(if we do not have an email address on file) within the two business
days that follow the auction.
4. Methods of Payment and Fees
Cash. Check. Wire Transfers. Money Order. Visa. MasterCard. Discover.
PayPal. (NOTE: A 2% surcharge will be added for payments made by
Visa, MasterCard, Discover or PayPal. See Terms of Sale paragraph
3.)
334
All payments are due immediately upon receipt of invoice. We
reserve the right to hold all goods paid for by check until payment
has cleared.
If payment is not received within fifteen (15) days, the Auction
House reserves the right to impose from the date of sale a late
charge of 1 1/2% a month of the total purchase price.
5. Payment, Collection, and Shipping Responsibilities of Buyer
Buyer Obligations: On the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, title to
the property immediately transfers to the successful bidder who,
in turn, becomes the buyer of the Property. The buyer immediately
assumes full risk and responsibility for the purchased Property,
including all costs and expenses of handling, shipping, insurance,
taxes, export, and otherwise, and is liable for the full purchase price,
plus the buyer’s premium, applicable taxes, and any other associated
expenses.
Collection of Property and Storage Charges: The buyer will pay for the
purchased Property immediately and remove it from the premises of
the Auction House within fourteen (14) days of the sale. We are not
responsible for any damage or loss on property purchased but not
removed from premises. If the purchased Property is not removed
within thirty (30) days of the sale, the buyer will thereafter be
assessed a $10 per lot storage charge per day. The Auction House
may, at its discretion, remove the purchased Property to public
storage at the buyer’s risk and expense. All associated charges will
be added to the total invoice and must be paid in full before the
Property will be released.
Those who choose to pick up their property from the Auction House
following the sale must call 24 hours in advance to arrange pick-up.
Regular hours for pick up are Monday – Friday, from 9:00 a.m. – 11:30
a.m. and from 1:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Please bring your own packing
materials. The Auction House is closed on Federal holidays and on
Mondays following full auction weekends. Weekend pick-ups are
made by special arrangement and/or by appointment only. Note: New
Jersey sales tax of 7% must be added to your invoice when picking up
merchandise unless you have a valid resale number on file.
The buyer is responsible for the shipment of all purchased property.
We will work with any shipper of your choosing. If you have any
shipping preference for any reason, please make sure your shipper
carries insurance. We are not responsible for any damage or loss
that occurs while your objects are in another’s care. We will also not
be responsible for any damage or loss that occurs if you choose a
shipping method that we have advised against and we will require a
waiver from you acknowledging this.
As a convenience to the buyer, the Auction House will, if requested,
give your property to a third party shipper. This company will pack
and ship or arrange shipment for you via UPS, FedEx or other carrier,
fully insured, for a fee payable in advance by credit card. Shipments
are made within a few days after payment has been received.
All international customs, duties, and other tariffs are the
responsibility of the Buyer. The Auction House and all third party
shippers will declare the selling price as the value in all cases.
Shipping larger items: Larger items are objects such as furniture,
andirons, floor vases, or any other item whose safe packing will
exceed the limits of common carriers. The Auction House can arrange
delivery by freight almost anywhere in the United States, fully
insured, for a fee. The delivery of large, heavy, or expensive objects
is not an inexpensive proposition and we urge you to consider this
before bidding.
Firearms: Rago sells only antique firearms as defined by the U.S.
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. Due to New Jersey firearms
regulations, all handguns, pistols, and revolvers will only be shipped
via Federal Express and will only be delivered to a person who holds
a Federal Firearms License or a Curios and Relics License. Handguns,
pistols, and revolvers can only be picked up at Auction House by
a person who holds a Federal Firearms License or the proper New
Jersey handgun permits, which must be shown and logged. There are
no exceptions. No firearms will be sold or shipped internationally.
Property purchased and left at the auction house for 90 days will be
sold or donated for you.
6. Buyer Default
Remedies: If any of the Terms of Sale are not fully complied with by
the buyer, the buyer will be in default without need of notice by the
Auction House. The buyer shall be liable to the Auction House and
the consignor for the total purchase price, including all premiums,
charges, and expenses specified in the Terms of Sale. Interest shall
accrue at the rate of 18% per annum commencing with the date of
the auction. In addition to other remedies available to the Auction
House by law, the Auction House may, at its option, a) cancel the
sale of the lot(s) on which the buyer defaulted and of any other lots
sold to the defaulting buyer at the same or any other auction(s) and
retain as liquidated damages all payments made by the buyer, b)
resell the purchased Property, whether at public auction or private
sale, or c) pursue any combination of a) and b) above. In event of
default, the buyer will be responsible to the Auction House and
the consignor for any deficiency, any and all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, collection fees and expenses,
late charges, and other damages. The Auction House may, at its
discretion, apply any proceeds of sale otherwise due to the buyer or
monies of the buyer in the Auction House’s possession to reduce or
satisfy the buyer’s obligations.
Security Interest: As security for full payment to the Auction
House and the consignor of all amounts due, the buyer grants the
Auction House the right to retain a security interest in the Property
purchased at auction and in any other property or money of buyer
in the Auction House’s possession or coming the Auction House’s
possession (collectively, ’collateral’). The Auction House shall
have the rights of a secured creditor as provided by the Uniform
Commercial Code and other applicable law. Such security interest
in the Property or other collateral will cease when the Property is
physically delivered to the buyer or the buyer’s agent.
7. Warranties and Guarantees
All items are served “As-Is, Where-Is,” except as expressly stated
otherwise in the following paragraph:
All information in the catalogue concerning authenticity is
guaranteed for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of sale.
In that time, prior to payment to the consignor of the work, the
Auction House will allow the buyer to submit, at his own expense,
an opinion in writing from a recognized expert, pre-approved by
the Auction House and the purchaser, regarding authenticity. In
the event the work is judged inauthentic by the expert, the work
may be returned in the same condition as at time of sale and the
buyer’s full purchase price will be refunded. Refunds shall not include
costs of transportation, insurance, or other expenses that may have
been incurred by the buyer. It is the buyer’s responsibility to make
payment in a timely fashion such that the property can be released
and inspected within this thirty (30) day time frame. Should the
buyer not do so, or should the buyer request the auction house to
delay shipment, should he give an incorrect shipping address, or
be unavailable to receive shipment, the thirty (30) day warranty
shall still apply. If the Auction House has paid the consignor the
amounts due consignor as a result of the sale, the Auction House
will (i) refund to the buyer the amount of the buyer’s premium and
applicable taxes received from the buyer, and (ii) make written
demand upon the consignor for the payment of the balance of the
purchase price. If the consignor fails to honor the written demand for
a refund of the balance of the purchase price, the Auction House will
furnish buyer the name and address of the consignor, and assign to
buyer all of the Auction House’s rights for the return of the balance
of the purchase price of the affected lot. Upon this disclosure and
assignment, the Auction House will have no further liability to
buyer or responsibility to pursue the buyer’s claim. The Auction
House will extend reasonable cooperation to buyer, provided that
such cooperation does not require out-of-pocket expenditures by
the Auction House. This limited right of rescission is available only
to the original buyer and may not be relied upon by any heir, agent,
transferee, assign, or other third party or assigned to any subsequent
transferee of the Property which gives rise to the claim.
This Warranty does not cover any description that states there is
a conflict of specialist opinion; any description that states (or is
bracketed in a section described as) “as-is“ or “not guaranteed.”
This Warranty does not cover any typographical errors. This Warranty
does not cover wear on furniture. This Warranty does not cover
flakes, surface scratches, or manufacturing flaws in glass or ceramics.
The description of clocks and lighting devices, whether in catalogues
or condition reports, may be incomplete and not identify every
mechanical replacement, repair, or defect. The absence of reference
to the condition of a clock or lighting device does not imply it to
be in working condition or without defects, repairs, restorations, or
replacement parts.
The description of jewelry, whether in catalogues, condition reports,
or any other form, is rendered as opinion, including, but not limited
to, specialist opinion as to authenticity, the enhancement or
treatment of gemstones, the weight of gemstones, the country of
origin, the authorship or origin (manufacture) of an item, its period
(or c.) or the authenticity of its marks.
No warranty is made that any watch is in working condition or
without defects, restorations, or working parts.
Buyers are advised to check watch works prior to auction.
All measurements are approximate.
This disclaimer of liability on our part applies whether the
information is included in the catalogue, advertisements,
announcements, or communicated through our representatives, bills
of sale, or elsewhere, and whether written or oral.
No Warranty of Reproduction: Neither the consignor nor we make any
warranty or representation, express or implied, as to whether a buyer
will acquire any reproduction rights, copyrights or other intellectual
property rights in, or with respect to, the Property.
The Auction House makes no warranties, express or implied, as to the
merchantability or fitness for purpose except as otherwise expressly
stated in these Terms of Sale.
8. Qualifying to Bid
As a security measure for our consignors and our company,
all bidders must establish credit. You will be asked to furnish
identification and a valid credit card number, credit references and/
or (for absentee, phone and online bidders) an initial deposit in the
form of a pre-authorization hold equal to 10% of the low estimate
of the total number of lots on which you are bidding. First time and
international buyers bidding on Asian lots with a total low estimate
of $5,000 or greater will be asked to a) furnish an initial deposit
in the form of a pre-authorization hold equal to 30% and b) grant
the Auction House the right to charge your credit card 30% of the
selling price on the day of sale. If you are acting as another’s agent
or principal, we may request a letter of authorization. If you are
successful and do not remit payment as specified, the amount owed
will be charged to your credit card together with such charges set
forth in these terms of sale. If you have any questions, contact Eliane
Talec, ext. 118.
Bidding Numbers: All bidders must register and receive a bidding
number from the Auction House prior to bidding at the auction.
9. Bidding Increments
All unreserved bidding starts at 50% of the low estimate unless
there are two or more competing absentee bids in excess of this
figure. The auctioneer has the sole and exclusive power, discretion,
and authority to regulate the bidding and its increments.
Increments
• $10 until $100 is reached
• $25 until $500 is reached
• $50 until $1,000 is reached
• $1,000 until $30,000 is reached
• $10,000 over $100,000
10. Absentee Bids
Absentee bids are requested by no later than 6:00 p.m. on the
business day before the auction. We accept absentee bids by
phone, by mail, in person, or by fax. Absentee bidders are emailed
bid confirmations – If you do not receive a bid confirmation by the
afternoon prior to the auction, please call us. When you do receive a
bid confirmation, please double check for accuracy.
All absentee bidding is handled as though you are in attendance. We
buy all designated lots for you one bidding increment above where
competition stops. Please check and comply with these increments.
In case of failure to comply, we will reduce each off-increment bid to
the next lower figure.
“Plus” bids: Because of our structured bidding increments, it is more
likely that several people will leave identical bids. Since an earlier bid
left with the auction house wins in the event of a tie, a later bid with
an added “plus” bid to the next increment would win the piece.
Absentee bids left with third party online bidding platforms are sent
to the auction house as the lot comes up for auction and not before.
There is no time advantage to absentee bids left with third party
online bidding platforms.
All absentee bidder names and bids are held in strictest confidence,
disclosed only in the event of a question after the sale.
Absentee bidding is a convenience offered to our customers and,
while we will make every effort to execute your instructions, the
Auction House is not liable or responsible for any errors or failure
to do so. If you place absentee bids with the Auction House, then
choose to attend in person, bid by phone or any other means, it is
solely your responsibility to cancel any or all absentee bids prior to
the start of the auction.
335
11. Telephone Bids
Rago guarantees you a line and a phone agent for bidding until 4 PM
on the day prior to an auction. After that time, we will gladly accept
your absentee bids, even during the auction (up to 30 minutes before
a lot goes on the block). Changes to bid lists left with us prior to the
deadline will always be accommodated as best we can, as will followup phone bids for those who attend/must leave the auction and
other exceptional cases.
If you need condition reports, please request and review them prior
to reserving phone lines.
Telephone bidders are emailed bid confirmations – If you do not
receive a bid confirmation by the afternoon prior to the auction,
please call us. When you do receive a bid confirmation, please double
check for accuracy.
We can call you at two phone numbers ONLY during the auction. If
you are unsure of where you or your agent will be during the sale, we
recommend you leave absentee bids.
Please do not change your phone number after your phone lines have
been confirmed; if you do, the Auction House will not be responsible
for any breakdown in communications. Overseas phone numbers only
will be confirmed the day before the auction.
We do not have the capacity to assign phone agents to clients who
want to listen only or who will not bid the minimum selling price.
Therefore, if you bid by phone, you must be willing to open bidding
and bid to within 2/3 of the low estimate should the bidding go that
far. You may, however, leave absentee bids for any amount.
Bids are placed on the telephone at the discretion of the Auction
House and at the caller’s risk. Telephone bidding is a convenience
offered to our customers and, while we will make every effort
to execute your instructions, the Auction House is not liable or
responsible for any errors or failure to do so.
If you place absentee bids with the Auction House or Live
Auctioneers and also bid in person, by phone or any other means, it
is solely your responsibility to cancel any or all absentee bids prior to
the start of the auction. If you do not or cannot, regardless of reason,
you will be held responsible for the property’s purchase.
12. Internet Bids
The Auction House has also engaged the services of third party
online bidding platforms called Bidsquare and Live Auctioneers.
Please proceed to these sites for all necessary information on how
to bid and buy online using this system. The user of Bidsquare
and/or Live Auctioneers indemnifies and holds the Auction House
and its consignors harmless against any claim arising out of or
resulting from your use of the Bidsquare and/or Live Auctioneers
sites, including all losses, damages, liabilities, and all fees (including
attorney’s fees), costs, and expenses incurred in connection with
any claim. Under no circumstances, including, but not limited to,
negligence, shall the Auction House and its consignors be liable for
lost profits or any special, incidental, or consequential damages that
result from the use of, or the inability to use, this site.
If you place absentee bids with the Auction House and/or a third
party site and also bid in person, by phone or any other means, it is
solely your responsibility to cancel these absentee bids prior to the
start of the auction. If you do not or cannot, regardless of reason, you
will be held responsible for the property’s purchase.
Absentee bids left with third party online bidding platforms are
released to the Auction House when a lot comes up for sale. The
Auction House cannot distinguish these from bids made in real time.
They have no timed advantage.
13. Condition Reports
Condition reports are rendered as specialist opinion by the staff
of the Auction House and/or independent consultants and not as
statements of fact. We do not guarantee the content of written or
verbal condition reports.
Up-to-date condition reports can be accessed online at ragoarts.com.
If you would like additional information, please call (609) 397-9374,
fax condition report requests to (609) 397-9377 or e-mail them
to info@ragoarts.com. Our specialists will respond to requests as
quickly as possible.
Please be patient. We get many requests and we make every effort to
respond to all of them in a timely fashion. The Auction House is not
liable or responsible for any errors or failure to do so.
14. Reserves
A reserve is the confidential minimum price established by the
Auction House and the consignor. The reserve will never exceed the
low estimate of the lot. The Auction House prohibits consignors from
bidding on their own property, but may implement the reserve by
336
bidding on behalf of the consignor at the auction up to the reserve.
15. Estimates
The estimates provided in this catalogue are our opinion of the
price that a willing buyer would pay for the property at auction,
based, where possible, on prices paid for comparable items sold in
the past. They are neither a representation nor a prediction of the
actual selling price that will be realized at auction, post-auction
sale, or upon resale, which may be substantially different from these
estimates. We shall not be liable in any way for such a difference.
16. Withdrawal of Property from Sale
The Auction House reserves the right to withdraw property from
the sale for any reason and with no liability whatsoever for such
withdrawal.
17. Rescission by Buyer
All items are served “As-Is, Where-Is,” except as expressly stated
otherwise in Paragraph 7. Buyer acknowledges and expressly agrees
that the provisions of this Paragraph state the sole and exclusive
remedy available to a buyer in the event of non-conformity in
Property purchased. The buyer understands and agrees that the
exclusive remedy for any breach of the warranty shall be a rescission
of the sale and a refund of the original purchase price (bid plus
buyer’s premium), as well as any applicable taxes paid. Neither the
Auction House nor its Consignor shall be liable for damages beyond
the remedy expressly provided for herein, such as, but not limited
to, direct, indirect, special, incidental, punitive, or consequential,
including the loss of profit or revenue, cost of obtaining alternative
property, claims of customers of the buyer or otherwise.
18. Rescission by the Auction House
In the event the Auction House receives notice of an adverse claim
with respect to purchased Property, the Auction House shall have the
right (but not the obligation), in its sole and absolute discretion, to
rescind the sale to the buyer, upon written notice to the buyer. Upon
such notice, the buyer will promptly return the purchased property
to the Auction House’s premises in the same condition as when
purchased.
The Auction House will then promptly refund the purchase price,
including the buyer’s premium and applicable taxes paid. Buyer will
have no further recourse against the Auction House or the consignor,
and the Auction House and the consignor shall not be liable for any
damages of any nature suffered by the buyer.
19. Governing Law and Forum for Disputes
The laws of New Jersey shall govern the auctions of the Auction
House. Any disputes that may arise in connection with the auction
and/or any auction purchase, and all of the terms and conditions set
forth herein above, shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with New Jersey law. Anyone who participates in the auction and/or
makes auction purchases agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of the
courts of the State of New Jersey with respect to any dispute arising
in connection with the auction and/or any auction purchases. In the
event that the Auction House needs to bring an action to enforce the
terms and conditions herein and/or to collect any sum due and owing
to it the Auction House shall be entitled in addition to collect its
reasonable attorney’s fees, collection agency fees, and cost of suit.
20. Limitations of Liability
The Auction House acts only as the agent for the consignor and in no
event will be liable for any breach or default by the consignor.
21. Severability and Waiver
If any provision of portion of these Terms of Sale shall be deemed
unlawful, void, or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision
or portion shall be stricken and severed from the remaining
provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect. Failure to
enforce any of the provisions in these Terms of Sale shall not be
deemed a waiver of the right to enforce any other provisions of these
Terms of Sale.
22. No Assignment
Unless the Auction House consents in writing, buyers may not assign
their rights or any of their obligations related to an auction or other
sale by the Auction House.
23. No Modifications
These Terms of Sale may not be changed unless the Auction House
and buyer have agreed to do so in a written agreement signed by
both parties.
24. Export or Import - Endangered/Threatened/Prohibited Species
The State of New Jersey prohibits the import, sale, purchase,
barter, or possession with intent to sell of any ivory, ivory product,
rhinoceros horn, or rhinoceros horn product with exceptions that are
irrelevant to commercial sale. As used in this act “Ivory” means tooth
or tusk from any animal, including, but not limited to an elephant,
hippopotamus, mammoth, narwhal, walrus, or whale, or any piece
thereof, whether raw ivory or worked ivory, or made into, or part of,
an ivory product. As concerns worked products made of species legal
to sell under current Federal guidelines, it is the sole responsibility
of buyers to familiarize themselves with International and U.S.
state laws or requirements for import and export; to identify and
obtain any necessary export, import, endangered species or other
permit prior to bidding; and to abide by International and U.S. laws
and requirements. The Auction House and the Consignor make
no representations or warranties as to whether any lot is or is not
subject to export or import restrictions or any embargoes and will
have no responsibility with regard to these matters. a) International:
Several countries do not allow the importation of lots containing
materials made from endangered species. This includes, but is not
limited to coral and tortoiseshell. An export license may be required
for the export of certain materials, as well. b) State of California:
California Penal Code sections 653o - 653r make it illegal to import
into California for commercial purposes, to possess with intent to
sell, or to sell within the state, the dead body, or any part or product
thereof, of any polar bear, leopard, ocelot, tiger, cheetah, jaguar, sable
antelope, wolf (Canis lupus), zebra, whale, cobra, python, sea turtle,
colobus monkey, kangaroo, vicuna, sea otter, free-roaming feral
horse, dolphin or porpoise (Delphinidae), Spanish lynx, or elephant.
Starting in 2015, it will be unlawful to import into this state for
commercial purposes, to possess with intent to sell, or to sell within
the state, the dead body, or any part or product thereof, of any
crocodile or alligator. Should a buyer in California state an intent to
sell the certain animal parts named in California Penal Code sections
653o - 653r, the Auction House reserves the right to reject bids and
refuse to ship.
Brazilian rosewood (Dalbergia nigra) has been listed in in the most
restrictive category of endangered species, CITES Appendix I, since
June 11, 1992. Brazilian rosewood demonstrably acquired before June
11, 1992, and any product made from such wood, is considered to be
pre-Convention under CITES. The United States currently issues a
pre-Convention certificate under CITES for international trade. The
E.U. includes Brazilian rosewood in Annex A, which means that preConvention specimens generally may not be imported into the E.U.
for commercial purposes unless accompanied by an import permit
proving acquisition before March 1, 1947. Other nations have their
own import requirements. As a result, the Auction House will sell
property made from Brazilian rosewood, in whole or part, only to
buyers residing in the United States. The Auction House will ship
only to addresses in the United States. Inquiries from international
buyers prior to sale will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
25. Firearms
Rago sells only antique firearms as defined by the U.S. Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. All Firearms will be sold in accordance
with State of New Jersey and Federal firearms laws and any relevant
State of New Jersey and Federal laws. It is the sole responsibility
of buyers to familiarize themselves with their local laws and
requirements for the possession of firearms; to identify and obtain
any necessary license or permit prior to bidding; and to abide by
all Federal, State and local laws and requirements. The Auction
House and the Consignor make no representations or warranties as
to whether any lot is or is not subject to such restrictions and will
have no responsibility with regard to these matters. Rago sells only
antique firearms as defined by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco
and Firearms. Due to New Jersey firearms regulations, all handguns,
pistols, and revolvers will only be shipped via Federal Express and will
only be delivered to a person who holds a Federal Firearms License
or a Curios and Relics License. Handguns, pistols, and revolvers can
only be picked up at Auction House by a person who holds a Federal
Firearms License or the proper New Jersey handgun permits, which
must be shown and logged. There are no exceptions. No firearms will
be sold or shipped internationally.
Paragraph Headings: Paragraph and subheadings are included in
these Terms of Sale for ease of reference and should not be used to
interpret the meaning of the substantive provisions.
ADDENDUM TO TERMS OF SALE: JEWELRY
For centuries, natural gemstones have been enhanced in a variety of
ways, including heating, oiling and other methods. These treatments
are accepted by the international jewelry and gemstone trade. The
Auction House makes no representations or warranties, express or
implied, as to whether natural stones have been treated or enhanced,
whether specifically referenced or not.
All stones have been identified by standard gemological field tests
as the mounting permits and the Auction House will make available
to prospective buyers any gemological certificates in its possession.
It will not always be feasible to obtain a qualified lab report on every
stone offered through the Auction House. Buyers wishing to have
a grading or gemological report from an independent recognized
laboratory such as the Gemological Institute of America, the
European
Gemological Laboratories or the American Gemological Institute may
request one at their own expense or hire an independent adviser of
their choosing.
Weights given are based solely on measurements and known
gemological formulae; they are approximate, not exact. Weight may
differ once a stone is removed from its setting. Buyers are advised to
verify weight estimates prior to auction
ADDENDUM TO TERMS OF SALE: COINS AND CURRENCY
Grading is a not an exact science. It is a matter of opinion as
to condition and other attributes. Because of this, grading can
and will differ among third party grading services (even though
consensus grading is employed by most), independent experts,
dealers, collectors and auction houses, including our own. Due to the
subjectivity of coin and currency grading, a given piece evaluated
twice by the same expert may be assigned a different grade each
time. Opinion as to the grading, condition or other attributes of any
property may have a material effect on value.
Therefore all coins and currency are served “As-Is, Where-Is,” by
the Auction House except as to authenticity, as expressly stated in
the Terms of Sale. They are sold without any additional express or
implied warranty, including, but not limited to, grade. This includes
all coins and currency, including, but not limited to, those:
• Referencing the opinion of a third-party grading service;
• With no reference to the opinion of a third-party grading
service;
• With reference to the opinion of Auction House as to grading;
• Subsequently submitted to a third-party grading service for
determination or certification;
• Encapsulated and therefore unable to be physically examined.
The Auction House reserves the right to differ with the grades
assigned to property, by certificate or otherwise, regardless of the
grading service and will not be bound by any prior or subsequent
opinion, determination or certification by third-party grading
services including, but not limited to, National Guaranty Company
(NGC), Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS), Paper Money
Guaranty (PMG) and Currency Grading and Authentication (CGA)
or any other any grading service, third party organization or dealer.
There is no guarantee or warranty implied or expressed that the
grading standards utilized by the Auction House will meet the
standards of any grading service at any time in the future.
The Auction House has graded uncertified coins and currency with
reference to the current interpretation of the American Numismatic
Association’s standards at the time of grading.
The Auction House reserves the right to re-grade property reconsigned for any reasons, including, but not limited to a change of
grading standards, differences in opinion, mishandling over time.
The Auction House will not be liable for any patent or latent defect
or controversy pertaining to or arising from any encapsulated coins
or currency. In any such instance, purchaser’s remedy, if any, shall be
solely against the service certifying.
Please note:
• Certain types of plastic may react with a coin’s metal or
transfer plasticizer to notes, causing damage. Avoid storage in
materials that are not inert.
• Catalog illustrations may not be to scale or reflect the
depicted property’s actual size.
26. Miscellaneous
Private Sales: These Terms of Sale shall apply to both auction and
private sales of property.

SHIPPING/RECEIPT OF PURCHASED PROPERTY
A bid is a contract to buy. So on the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer,
the successful bidder becomes the owner and assumes full
responsibility for the purchased property. This includes all costs and
the expenses of any handling, shipping, insurance, taxes, or export.
When the Auction Center receives and processes your payment, your
property is released - for shipping, delivery by freight, or pick-up.
Please allow up to three weeks.
NOTE: Some property in this sale may require specialized shipping.
Please call us for our recommendations.

We have engaged shippers to pick up several times a week from
the auction house. Our recommended shippers for small items are
Masterpiece Shipping and The Flemington UPS Store. Once we
receive your payment and the completed shipping form authorizing
the release of your property to the shipper, we will add your lot(s) to
the list for the next pick up. You will receive a shipping quote for your
approval within 48 hours after the shipper has picked up your lot(s).
If for any reason the quote is not acceptable to you, your property
will be returned to the auction house so that you can make alternate
arrangements.

arranging for delivery by freight. Depending on the location, we can
recommend a variety of third party shippers. We are also happy to
work with the freight company of your choosing. Please keep in mind
that delivery of these types of items can be an expensive proposition
and we urge you to consider this before bidding. Please remember
that it is your responsibility to pay for all deliveries.
