• Please note that a buyer’s premium of 12% will be added to the auctioneer’s hammer price. A 25% deposit may be required in advance unless credit has been previously established.
• A valid credit card with expiration date is required, even though you may choose to pay for the item using another means of payment.

• Successful bidders are responsible for packing and shipping costs of all purchases. Wickliff & Associates Auctioneers, Inc., if requested, will coordinate the shipping of purchases, as soon as full payment has been received. Shipment of absentee bid may take up to ten (10) business days after payment has been received (depending on gallery workload).
• Absentee bids are executed in competition with the audience, on an alternate basis. Due to the uncertainties of bidding patterns, a lot may sell to the audience for the same amount authorized by an absentee bidder. In the event of identical bids, the bid received first will take precedence. The auctioneer's decision is final in the matter of same-amount bids, and our policy is that floor bidders will have precedence over absentee bidders.
• Wickliff & Associates Auctioneers, Inc. will call you if you are successful in your bidding. Due to the demands

• We are not held responsible for errors or failure to execute bids.
• All bids accepted will be executed subject to our Conditions of Sale and Information for Buyers as published and available at the gallery office.
