Conditions of Sale
All property is sold "AS IS", and neither O'Gallerie nor the Consignor makes any representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to the merchantability, fitness, or condition of the property or as to the correctness of description, genuineness, attribution, provenance or period of the property. By bidding, you agree to these Conditions of Sale.
A premium of twenty-three percent (20% Buyer's Premium + 3% online fee) of the successful bid price will be added to the bid prices and is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price.
On the fall of the Auctioneer's hammer, title to the offered lot or article passes to the highest bidder who assumes full risk and responsibility thereof. The Auctioneer has sole discretion in the acceptance of bids and in the determination of the highest bidder.
All purchases are to be paid for either by bank wire or credit card (VISA, Mastercard or Discover) during or immediately after each Auction. Credit card information is requested as part of the registration process. If payment arrangements are not made within one week following the auction, your credit card may be charged. O'Gallerie reserves the option to hold purchases until authorization is obtained on credit cards or bank wires are received.
No lot may be transferred to another buyer.
Removal of purchases, including packing & shipping arrangements if needed, is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Purchases may be picked up during the three business days following the auction, at which time all purchases are to be paid for and removed. Purchases not picked up within the three business days following the auction may be moved to a public warehouse at the purchaser's account, risk and responsibility. Additionally, O'Gallerie has the option to resell the property either privately or at auction without any requirement for notice or advertisement. The purchaser will be liable for any deficiency, all costs, including handling, storage fees and insurance, our commission(s) at regular rates or incidental damages.
If O'Gallerie should be prevented by fire, theft or any reason whatsoever from delivering any property to the purchaser, our liability shall be limited to the sum actually paid by the purchaser.
All lots in the Catalog may be subject to a reserve (a confidential minimum price below which the lot will not ordinarily be sold). We as the Agent for Consignor may place bids during the auction if and when the highest outstanding bid at any time during the sale is below the reserve which may have been established on the lot being offered. Consignors are not allowed to bid on their own property.
No reference to imperfections is made in the catalog descriptions or verbally by the Auctioneers. Since all sales are final and O'Gallerie makes no refunds, please verify our descriptions and carefully view the property at a preview before you bid. No employee of O'Gallerie is authorized to make on our behalf, or that of the Consignor, any representation or warranty, oral or written with respect to any property.
O'Gallerie reserves the right to withdraw any property at any time before actual sale, or reject a bid from any bidder.

Your use of the WePay payment service (the "Payment Service") is solely governed by WePay's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy located at www.wepay.com/legal (collectively, the "WePay Terms"). All transactions, using the Payment Service or otherwise, remain subject to the applicable terms and conditions herein (including the refund policies posted therein). You may not use the Payment Service to engage in activities prohibited by the WePay Terms or otherwise to violate applicable law.
If you use the Payment Service, you will be required to provide information regarding your credit card or other payment instrument.

You will promptly update your account information with any changes (for example, a change in your billing address or credit card expiration date) that may occur. You agree to pay O'Gallerie the amount that is specified for the item(s) you are purchasing in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions herein. If after three (3) business days you fail to pay for the items you win in full, O'Gallerie reserves the right to charge your credit card on file the entire amount due (including the hammer price, buyer's premium, all applicable taxes and other charges.)
In the event you file a chargeback with your credit card facility to reverse or invalidate a processed payment, O'Gallerie and WePay have the right to contest any such chargeback in accordance with the WePay Terms. We and/or WePay may request necessary information from you to contest the chargeback. If the chargeback is contested successfully, your payment will be released to WePay. If a chargeback dispute is resolved in your favor, you will recover the chargeback amount through your credit card facility.
