GUIDE FOR BUYERS
We advise all bidders to read the Terms and Conditions of the Sale before bidding with Dan Morphy Auctions.

TERMS OF SALE
When bidding on any lot offered by Dan Morphy Auctions, the bidder indicates acceptance of the following Terms of Sale:


CONDITION OF ITEMS
Dan Morphy Auctions makes every effort to accurately describe all items offered in its sales, however all items for sale are AS IS, and it is the bidders responsibility (present or absentee bidders) to determine the exact condition of each item.

ABSENTEE BIDS
Dan Morphy Auctions will accept absentee bids if pre-authorized by mail, fax or through our website. Absentee bidders must use the absentee bid form and clearly mark the lot number, title and maximum bid amount. Absentee bidding forms may be accessed online at our website. If there are two (2) identical bids placed on the same item, priority will be given to the first bid received. All bids must be left in increments as explained on our bid form. If a left bid is OUT OF INCREMENT, the auctioneer has the right to round the bid up to the next correct increment. Dan Morphy Auctions is pleased to offer online absentee bidding as part of our auction services. Bidders may preview, register, and place bids online through our Web site. Online absentee bidding through Dan Morphy Auctions is available until 15 minutes prior to the start time of the auction. During the live sale, the auctioneer will execute your absentee bid competitively up to the maximum amount you have indicated. Online bidding through Artfact is also available; Terms and Conditions still apply.

If there is a tie bid between the Internet bidding venues, including Artfact, and the floor, the floor bid takes precedence.

BID INCREMENTS
Bid increments listed are a general guideline. Actual increments are at the auctioneers discretion.
$0 - $200.....................................$10

$10,000 +.................. Auctioneer's discretion

If a lot does not receive a bid of 25% of the low estimate, that lot will be passed by the auctioneer.


RESERVES
The majority of our items are unreserved, but occasionally items may carry a moderate reserve. Please note that when a lot carries a reserve, the reserve is usually somewhere below our low estimate. In the case of a reserved item, the seller has authorized the auctioneer to bid on their behalf until the reserve price is reached. Actual reserve amounts cannot be disclosed, but we will advise you if an item carries a reserve, should you ask. Unreserved lots will have a minimum opening bid of one-fourth of the low estimate.


RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES
The auctioneer will determine the highest bidder. The auctioneer alone has the right to reopen the bidding of an item if deemed necessary due to a dispute. If there is a tie bid between the floor and Internet or absentee bid, the floor bid takes precedence. Dan Morphy Auctions and its representatives reserve the right to remove those attendees who impede the previews and/or the auction. Title to all merchandise shall pass to the highest bidder at the fall of the auctioneers hammer. The buyer will then assume all risk and full responsibility of the lot purchased once ownership has changed.
