1. INTRODUCTION AND APPLICABILITY
1.1 These terms and conditions apply at Bukowski Auktioner AB's/Bukowskis Oy Ab's ("Bukowskis") hammer auctions. These terms and conditions do not apply to online auctions of items offered by Bukowskis through its electronic marketplace via the internet where the auctions are conducted electronically. For the avoidance of doubt; notwithstanding what is stated in the preceding sentence, these terms and conditions apply to absentee bids submitted through Bukowskis' online service in accordance with section 5 below (Absentee bids).

1.2 Bukowskis acts as Commissioner, which means that the owner (the "Seller") of Items ("Items") instructs Bukowskis to sell Items in its own name but on behalf of the Seller. Exceptionally, Bukowskis may sell Items on its own account of which Bukowskis is the owner, e.g. after withdrawal in the context of the auction process.

1.3 In addition to mandatory legislation, these terms and conditions, the price list and other policies published by Bukowskis shall fully regulate what applies when registering and participating in auction and purchasing Items.

2. REGISTRATION
2.1 A customer (the "Customer" or the "Buyer") who wishes to participate in a hammer auction is obliged to provide the information Bukowskis requests for registration. The Customer must provide accurate and complete personal and contact information and is responsible for keeping the information up to date from time to time.

2.2 If a legal entity is registered as a Customer, the registration shall be made by a competent representative or authorised representative who has the right to bind the company to these terms and conditions and who shall also be listed as the contact person for the company in question.

2.3 Through registration, the Customer accepts the terms and conditions and other instructions given.

2.4 The following persons/Customers are not entitled to participate in auction: (i) persons under the age of 18, (ii) persons who do not have legal capacity or (iii) Customers who have been suspended temporarily or permanently.

2.5 Bukowskis protects stored personal data. Bukowskis may verify the accuracy of the information provided by the Buyer upon registration or later, e.g. through the use of various technical tools or by searching third-party registers. Concerning the use of personal data, see section 19 below.

3. PARTICIPATION IN AUCTION
3.1 In order to participate in Bukowskis hammer auctions, a special approval is required from Bukowskis. Bukowskis has the right to further restrict the right to bid by e.g. setting bid limits or requesting a deposit for certain Items.

3.2 Bukowskis is not liable for any damages that may arise because a Customer cannot have access to the auction e.g. to bid for an Item.
3.3 Bukowskis has the right to suspend Customers and their accounts from participating in auction. This may include, among other things, Customers which: (i) do not follow these terms; (ii) have overdue unpaid debt to Bukowskis; (iii) have not retrieved purchased Items or (iv) Bukowskis assesses, for example, abusing the right of withdrawal at online auctions. A Customer which has been suspended does not have the right to re-register. A Customer that has been suspended is still obliged to fulfill all obligations to Bukowskis arising before or in connection with the suspension.

4. ITEM DESCRIPTION/ESTIMATED PRICES
4.1 All Items are sold as is and in accordance with the text of the publication of the Item. Images should only be used for identification purposes. Bukowskis is not liable for any damage, defects or deficiencies not shown in such depiction.

4.2 An Item?s estimated price is based on a market-adjusted valuation of the Item prior to the auction but does not constitute a prediction of the sale price but an assessment and serves only as a guidance for the Buyer. The Buyer is not entitled to make any claim against Bukowskis in connection with Bukowskis' valuation of and/or the estimated price of an Item. The price at which an Item is ultimately sold may significantly exceed or fall below the estimated price.

4.3 Bukowskis reserves the right to change the description and/or estimated price. Changes or additions are posted or announced at the time of the auction.

4.4 It is the responsibility of the Buyer to examine the Item before the auction and assess its condition and nature. Published information regarding e.g. author, authenticity, age, technology, condition or provenance serves only as a guidance for the Buyer in his own examination of the Item. Bukowskis is only responsible for that the published data, along with any changes and additions, of the author of an Item, authenticity, age, technique, condition or provenance corresponds to the general opinion at the time of publication. Bukowskis is not responsible for any change in such general opinion after publication. Bukowskis is also not responsible for natural wear and tear or minor damage and defects, such as any mounting on canvases, condition of frames, natural changes in materials such as bleaching paper and cracking of wood, cut margins, stains or yellowings on graphic works. Clocks and clockwork are sold as works of art and Bukowskis is not responsible for their technical function as timepieces. Bukowskis is also not responsible for the operation of motor vehicles, mechanical, electric or battery-powered Items.

4.5 Bukowskis is entitled, but not obligated, to provide a special written condition report on the general condition of an Item and any damage, repairs, etc. Information provided by Bukowskis in a condition report does not relieve the Buyer from its own duty of investigation and serves only as a guidance for the Buyer in its examination and assessment of the Item.

4.6 Items are sometimes sold with special statement/certificate from external expertise. The fact that Items are sold with special statement/certificate from external expertise does not constitute a reason for the Buyer not to fulfil its obligation to examine and other obligations under these terms and conditions.

4.7 Bukowskis' liability for inaccuracies (see also section 13 below) is in any case limited to cases where an incorrect and/or omitted information is substantial. Bukowskis' liability applies only in relation to the Buyer and is in any case limited to SEK 10,000,000.

The Buyer is not entitled to any additional compensation. Bukowskis is never liable for direct or indirect damages such as legal or proxy costs that the Buyer may incur except if Bukowskis is guilty of gross negligence. The Buyer is obliged to take reasonable and normal measures to prevent, avert or limit loss or damage.

14. RETRIEVAL AND UNCLAIMED ITEMS

VAT is charged per Item per day. For furniture and other bulky Items, a double storage fee is charged. Storage is at the Buyer's expense and risk. If the Item has not been collected within the time limit set out above, Bukowskis shall, on behalf of the Buyer, take reasonable steps to care for the Item. Bukowskis also has the right to hand over the Item with care to a third party for continued storage, following which Bukowskis' duty of care ceases. All transport and storage costs incurred by Bukowskis when handing over to third parties for storage will be charged to the Buyer. If the Buyer so requests, Bukowskis can handle the transport of Items to its branches in Gothenburg, Malm? and Helsinki. The transport fee is charged according to a special price list.
