These Conditions of Sale and Cataloguing Practices set out the terms we offer the
lots listed for sale.
By registering to bid and/or by bidding at auction, you agree to these terms; please
be advised to read them carefully before bidding.
GENERAL ASSUMPTIONS
- Unless otherwise indicated, Carlo Bonte Auctions acts as an agent for the
seller. - Sales are conducted by auction according to Belgian law; any disputes will
be adjudicated by Belgian law
- A bailiff/notary supervises all LIVE Auctions; disputes during the sale can only
be resolved by his/her decision. This decision is definite and irrevocable.
- By registering for our auction, the buyer accepts the conditions of sale
hereafter without any reserve.
In-house Buyer's Premium: 27% (see chapter B5 for more details)
A – BEFORE THE AUCTION
1. Description of lots
a. Certain words used in the catalogue have special meanings. You can
find a detailed explanation in the section 'Cataloguing Practices'
b. The description, condition report and any other statement made by
us (including artist, period, materials, dimensions, or provenance) are
our opinion only and are not to be relied on as a statement of fact.
c. All dimensions and weights are approximate only
d. We do not provide any guarantee concerning the nature of a lot
e. Estimates are made based on similar items' conditions, quality,
provenance, and previous auction results.
The Estimate may not be relied on as a sole indicator or guarantee of
the actual sale result or value for any purpose. Estimations do not
include the buyer's premium or any other applicable charges.
2. Condition
a. Goods are sold 'as is' at the moment of the adjudication. The condition
of lots can vary due to age, previous damage, restorations, or general
signs of use. This implies that lots offered will rarely be in perfect
condition.
b. Every bidder is expected to consult the condition report found on
each lot on carlobonte.be before bidding. Additional information
(and/or pictures) need to be requested at least 48 hours before the
first day of the auction. A missing condition report does not imply
perfect condition.
c. We carry out all condition reports with the utmost care; however, they
are to be considered incomplete. Condition reports are to be seen as
guidance only and are provided free of charge to help evaluate the
condition of an item.
All condition reports reflect our opinion only and can not be seen as a
replacement for a personal inspection or a professional examination.
d. Images and colours might slightly differ from the actual lot when
printed or viewed on-screen.
3. Viewing Days
a. Every bidder is due to verify the condition of goods by personal
inspection. We strongly recommend getting additional advice from a
professional advisor.
b. Viewing days are accessible free of charge by appointment. Our staff
will provide every opportunity to examine the lots further as long as
they do not suffer damage.
c. Any damages caused by a visitor will be proceeded against him/her.
In this event, the high Estimate price (or, if applicable, the reserve
price) will serve as a reference for the compensation for the seller.

purchased by a customer from outside the EU or by a customer who wants to
export the item outside the EU, the attestation as included in the guidelines of the

countries.
The purchaser who wants to export the item outside the EU must personally take
the necessary steps to obtain an official CITES certificate.
