Approximate Value: High and low estimates are provided solely for comparison purposes and Antiquities makes no warranties of any kind relating to them.
Any Approximate Value may include valuations which reflect the full, highest retail price of the item, the item's insurance replacement value, or both. No price estimate or Approximate Value should be considered to represent the investment or resale value of the item. Such values are to be solely based on the due diligence evaluation of the Bidder absent any estimate or Approximate Value presented.
In the event that an item is listed as having an "Approximate Value", this represents Antiquities in-house estimate of what the item's Approximate Value would be. Actual appraisal of the item is the responsibility of the Bidder.
Antiquities is also pleased to let you know that your item may have an Independent Authentication and that the accompanying Certificate (COA) enclosed with the item is proof of the items authenticity.

Antiquities is not a Live Auction House therefore there will be no "Live Bidders" you're up against. However we do have a lengthy mailing list and our clients will be calling with bids. Therefore "Floor" bids will represent bids we take by phone/text from our regular clients.

The Bidder specifically waives the right to initiate a credit card charge back dispute on any basis of claim and agrees that the Bidder will pay Antiquities a minimum of $300 plus hourly charges and costs for any such charge back dispute opened, due to the severe administrative burden of such disputes and their direct violation of the dispute provisions above.

The protection of your personal data is of highest importance to us.

Conditions
Through our pictures and descriptions, we try and give our customers the best possible feel for the condition of our items. If you need more information, just send us an email and we will be more than happy to provide additional information to ensure that you are a confident buyer. Everything is sold "as is."
Occasionally you may notice that an item is re-listed. This can be due to a variety of reasons such as a winning Bidder in a previous auction not paying for the item, multiple types of the same item or it is one of the few items listed with a reserve and the reserve was not met.
There are times in which we encounter excessive delays obtaining the lots from our sources, so this may delay shipment. However, this is very uncommon. Under the rare occasion that a lot/s cannot be obtained from the consignor, the auction will be cancelled, and a 100% refund of your payment will be issued. If you happen to win a framed item or request custom framing on your item, please allow for an additional 3-4 weeks processing to accommodate your order.
When you signed up for Invaluable/AuctionZip or Live Auctioneers, you acknowledged and agreed that your bid is a binding contract. All sales are final. We expect that all bidders do any due diligence before placing bids. When you signed up for our auction, you also agreed to our Terms and Guidelines so please make sure you have read those completely.
If you purchased an autographed item from us, you did so based on our Rules and Guidelines. When third party certification is included on an item, Antiquities uses only Forensic Certification as it is the most trusted process in the country and the only certification accepted in a court of law. All resources we use for this process are Certified Handwriting Experts and their work and opinions are the only ones we value and trust. We don't work with nor do we condone working with companies who make exclusive agreements with other dealers/auction houses as it creates a bias in the industry. Forensic certification companies do not have any exclusive contracts with anyone so as to keep the work as honest and true as possible. We don't sell with any guarantee that a competing 3rd Party certification company has any authority over this process nor will we accept any other 3rd Party certification if an item is questioned.
Shipping Terms
All packages will be shipped through UPS or FEDEX with signature required unless otherwise noted before the time of shipment. SHIPPING TIMEFRAME 20 business days. Every shipment will be packed professionally, in house and we ship worldwide. The tracking number will be emailed as soon as it becomes available. Please note that we do ship multiple items in a single package to minimize shipping charges when possible.
Winning Bidder is responsible for paying the shipping charges. The shipping fee is added onto the final invoice. Shipping charges depend on the value of the package, dimensional weight, and your specific location in relation to our company. Antiquities insures packages while in transit to the winning Bidders.
International packages may be subject to their respective country's customs, duties, and taxes and Bidders are responsible for paying this additional charge. Antiquities is not responsible for paying your customs, duties and taxes. Please make sure you update the auction house if there is any change in your shipping address. Antiquities will base the shipping fee on that address and will only ship to the address shown in your profile unless other arrangements are made prior to shipping your package. Please note that as the value of the package goes up shipping charges go up. Please contact the auction house directly if you want an advance quote for your shipping charge.
In the event that you refuse delivery of the package for the completion of your order, at the discretion of Antiquities you will be liable for the 30% buyer's premium and an additional 25% restocking fee based on the total hammer price paid.
