1.
CATALOGUE DESCRIPTIONS
WIEDERSEIM ASSOCIATES, INC. has endeavored to accurately
describe all items being sold, but all property is being sold
“AS IS”, “WHERE IS”. No statement in this catalogue,
invoice, bill of sale, or elsewhere by any representative or
person in the employ of WIEDERSEIM ASSOCIATES, INC., shall be
deemed a warranty, representation, or assumption of liability
with respect to age, condition, size, quality, variety,
importance, provenance, material of manufacture, metal content
or assay, stone identification, weight, or size measurement, or
historical relevance of any of the items offered for sale. Any
potential Bidders accept sole responsibility for contacting us
to obtain condition reports on any offered lots and/or inspect
said lots before bidding to determine the condition and if there
are any repairs or restorations. CONDITION REPORT REQUESTS:
Any requests received after 12:00 Noon the day before the start
of an Auction may not be answered. Questions cannot and will not
be answered once the Auction has started. The absence of a
condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect
condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections,
or the effects of aging. Wiederseim Associates will endeavor to
provide additional information as a courtesy, but it is only an
opinion and should not be regarded as a statement of fact.
ALL SALES ARE FINAL! Any items purchased and removed from
the auction cannot be returned.

of your bank. This letter must state an exact amount of funds
guaranteed, expressly stating the funds are payable to WIEDERSEIM
ASSOCIATES, INC. on the specific day of the Auction. In any event,

4. DISPUTES &
TITLE TO GOODS
In the event of a dispute, the Auctioneer will be the
final judge as to which Bidder is successful. The Auctioneer may at
his sole discretion, re-open the bidding on a particular item. Title
shall pass on all items sold when the Auctioneer says “SOLD”. The
Purchaser assumes total and full responsibility for all goods at
that time, and is responsible for payment for all items whether or
not the Purchaser actually takes possession at that time. If any
dispute arises after the conclusion of the Auction, the records of
the Auctioneer and Clerk shall stand as conclusive. Any loss or
damage by breakage, natural disaster, theft or any other cause is
therefore the sole and entire responsibility of the Purchaser.
5. BUYER’S
PREMIUM & SALES TAX
Each individual Lot sold is
subject to a 17% Buyer’s Premium which will be added to the
successful bid price of each Lot and is payable by the Purchaser as
part of the total purchase price. Separate Terms apply to internet
bidding. A 6% State of Pennsylvania sales tax will be added to the
total purchase price, unless purchased for resale or exempt from tax
by other Pennsylvania law. All Bidders who qualify for exemption
must file a Sales Tax exemption form with WIEDERSEIM ASSOCIATES,
INC.
