Terms and Conditions – Auctions

1. Introduction
   • These terms and conditions (‘Auction T&Cs’) apply in addition to our general Terms and Conditions of Sale. Where any part of these Auction T&Cs conflict with our general Terms and Conditions of Sale, the provisions of these Auction T&Cs will take priority.
   • In these Auction T&Cs:
     • auction period: means the period of the auction, as shown on the relevant webpage by a countdown timer (or similar);
     • current bid/bid price: means, at any time, the price that would be paid by the winning bidder (calculated in accordance with clause 2.2 below) if the auction closed at that time;
     • max bid: means the highest amount that a bidder would be willing to pay, as submitted as a bid via the relevant webpage;

2. The Auction Process
   • By placing a bid, you notify us of your intention to make an offer to purchase the item at the final ‘bid price’ (see 2.2 below), should your max bid be the highest of all bids at the end of the auction period (‘winning bid’). No sale will be made, and no contract will exist, until:

     • (if you placed the winning bid) you have completed your purchase in accordance with clause 2.4 below; and
     • You have received a confirmation email from us.
   • The ‘bid price’ will increase in set increments with each bid placed until the expiry of the auction period (at which time the then current ‘bid price’ will be the ‘final bid price’). The ‘current bid’ and ‘final bid price’ will be attributed to the person with the highest ‘max bid’ at the relevant point in time.
   • If two or more people bid the same amount, the person who placed their bid earliest will be considered the higher bidder.
   • If you have placed the winning bid you will be notified by email and will have seven days to complete your purchase via our website. If you do not complete your purchase during this time, the person with the next highest bid will then have the opportunity to complete their purchase within seven days, and so on until the item is sold.
   • Please note, you must be logged into our website to place a bid.
3. Cancellation and Returns
   • Our extended return period does not apply to goods purchase via an auction on this site. This does not affect your statutory right of cancellation (see clause 5 of our Terms and Conditions of Sale for more information).
   • Where you return or cancel an order after receiving the auction goods, a full refund will only be given where the relevant Certificate of Authentication is also returned.
