Standard Buyer’s Conditions of Sale
1. All lots (which term shall include all forms of personal property whatsoever and property fitted or affixed to land) are tendered for sale subject to these Conditions. No variation of such Conditions shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by a person duly authorised by the Auctioneer. In these Conditions the `Auctioneer’ shall be the company or firm or person, or his or their servant or agent who has agreed to auction any lot. By making a bid for any lot the person making the bid warrants that he has read, makes his bid upon and agrees to be bound by these Conditions. He further warrants that he has due authority and capacity to make the bids and binds himself and any employer or principal to honour any contract resulting therefrom. Any bid shall be deemed to be an offer by the Buyer (which term shall include the bidder and any principal or employee of the bidder) to purchase any lot tendered upon these Conditions alone.
2. The Auctioneer tenders any lot for sale as agent for an on behalf of the person from or through whom instructions for sale have been received (the Seller) and not on the Auctioneers’ own behalf. The sale of any lot shall be concluded and binding at the moment when the lot is knocked down. The highest bid will be accepted save in exceptional circumstances, such circumstances to be determined by the Auctioneer whose decision shall be unchallengeable.
3.The Auctioneer shall have the sole and exclusive right at the site of the auction to determine all matters whatsoever concerning the conduct and/or effect of any auction sale or purported sale and without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing he shall be entitled to resolve disputes between bidders, to reject any bid, to withdraw, divide or consolidate any lot or lots and he will be entitled to bid on the Seller’s behalf, for any lot offered either with reserve or subject to the Auctioneer’s discretion. No person may advance less at a bid than the sum to be named from time to time by the Auctioneer.
4. As a computerised accounting system operates, it is a Condition precedent to any bid that the bidder obtains from the auctioneer’s clerks, a bidding number which will only be given upon satisfactory proof of identity and payment of a refundable deposit (usually £50.00 or £200.00 if bidding for vehicles, but more if required by the clerk), if called upon to do so by the clerk (for which a receipt will be given at the time of payment). The Auctioneer reserves the right to refuse any prospective Purchaser a bidding number and to refuse to accept bids from any party not having an official bidding number.
5. On a successful bid being accepted by the fall of the hammer, the Buyer undertakes to show his bidding number and if required to do so to pay an additional deposit there and then. The balance of the Buyer’s account shall be paid within one day of the sale – unless a shorter period is indicated by the Auctioneer – at the place specified by the Auctioneer for payment. No Purchaser shall have the right to avail himself of any set-off or other plea for none payment of his purchase money against the Auctioneer or his principals, but he shall be liable to the Auctioneer for any unpaid purchase money whether the lots bought have been delivered up or not. Payment is to be in a form agreeable to the Auctioneer and shall not be deemed to have occurred until any negotiable instrument has been honoured in full. Should payment not be received within this time limit the Auctioneer reserves the right to charge interest at the rate of 15% per annum until payment of the outstanding balance, and to bring into operation the remedies reserved under Condition 6. Time of payment shall be deemed to be of the essence.
6. The Purchaser shall not be entitled to remove any lot from its position at the time of sale until his account has been paid in full. In default of payment the Auctioneer shall have a lien on all the lots purchased by the Buyer and to forfeit any deposit paid (whether described as refundable or not). The Auctioneer shall also have the right to immediately re-sell the goods at his sole discretion (whether by auction or private treaty) without any right of compensation in the Buyer. Should a shortfall arise upon any such re-sale the damages recoverable by the Auctioneer from the Buyer shall include – but not be limited to – any loss arising on any re-sale of any lots together with the necessary expenses (including commission) of both sales. This Condition however is without prejudice to the right of the Auctioneer to enforce the Contract made at this sale if he thinks fit and the duly verified computer sales entry shall be deemed to be full and sufficient evidence of such Contract and binding alike upon Seller and Buyer upon written certification by the Auctioneer presiding.
7. The title to any lot shall remain in the Seller until the full sale price and any storage and interest charges have been paid to the Auctioneer, but the risk of damage to or loss of the lot by whatsoever cause and in whatsoever circumstances shall be transferred to the Buyer upon the sale.
8.The Auctioneer warrants that he will only sell lots which he believes to be owned by the Seller or to which the Seller will be able to pass a good title but should it transpire that the Seller’s title to any lot is defective or that the Seller cannot pass a good title to the Buyer, the Auctioneer shall be under no obligation to the Buyer, other than to use his best reasonable endeavours (short of litigation), to procure the transfer of a good title to the Buyer to assist the Buyer in exercising any remedies that he may have against the Seller.
9. The Buyer shall remove any lot for which he has paid in full plus other charges, if any, by the time for removal, which shall be either the time for payment or the time stated on any sale notes of the Auctioneer whichever shall be later, but provided that no lot shall be removed without the Auctioneer’s express written consent while the Auction is continuing. The Buyer shall be responsible for the removal of the articles and such removal must be carried out safely and lawfully. Flame cutting, the use of explosives or of any other potentially hazardous or inflammatory process shall not be permissible at the site without express written consent. The Buyer agrees to insure against and to indemnify the Auctioneer and the Seller against any and all claims arising in respect of injury or damage to person or property, whether real or personal, caused by or in connection with the acts or omissions of the Buyer, whether caused by himself, his servants or agents or his principles or employer.
10. All conditions and warranties as to the condition, quality, description or fitness for any purpose whatsoever of any lot sold by the Auctioneer are hereby expressly excluded. Neither the Auctioneer nor the Seller will be bound by or liable for any representation of any kind whatsoever, whensoever or howsoever made.
