If items are not picked up within 5 days of sale we will add on a $5 storage fee each day until the item is picked up.
We do require credit card information to bid online with us.
New York State also has 8% sales tax, If you are tax exempt please mail or fax over your tax exempt form. If you are out of NY State the sales tax will be waived. If you are purchasing any kind of currency the sales tax is waived.
ALL PROPERTY IS SOLD "AS IS" "WHERE IS" and ALL SALES FINAL.

Condition Of Items
Descriptions provided in both printed and on-line catalog formats do not include condition reports. The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging. Interested bidders are strongly encouraged to request a condition report on any lots upon which they intend to bid, prior to placing a bid. The Company, however, assumes no risk, liability or responsibility for the identification or authenticity or authorship, or weight, count, or measure of any property identified in its catalog or lists of sale. This shall include, among others, the identity of the creator, the period, culture, source of origin, as the case may be, with which the creation of any property is identified in any publication.
Payment
Your credit card that is on file will be charged either the day of the auction as soon as the auction ends or it will be charged the Monday after. That will be the charge for the item(s) itself and you will be charged a second time for your shipping cost.
We charge $5 per person to pack, handle and ship items.
WE DO NOT GIVE REFUNDS, ALL SALES ARE FINAL. You must understand this and accept the fact that once you pay for an item there is no turning back, we pay our consignors immediately after items are paid for. We are sorry for an inconvenience this may cause you but we just are unable to give refunds.
You may pay with Paypal BUT you will pay an extra 3% on top of you total cost to cover the Paypal fee.
Shipping Terms
Auction House will help with any shipping at buyers 100% expense, this will include trips to and from the shipping facility and handling charges.
You may also pick the item up at our facility, just call to make arrangements. We have staff here Monday through Friday 9:00AM - 3:00PM. If you need to make special arrangements at a different time then provided please give us a call and we might be able to meet you, depending on time.
Just an FYI, anything with glass or framed art will be expensive to ship. We will not take responsibility to pack these items, they will go to a shipping facility.
For example, a glass framed print shipped out and it was $98 to ship to California, a framed art with no glass shipping and it was $78. Please keep this in mind when you are bidding.
