TERMS OF SALE: a. The Purchase of and Payment for Property The sale of a lot shall be to the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer, in accord with these Conditions of Sale. Title to the lot shall pass with the fall of the Auctioneer's hammer. Buyer shall pay the Purchase price, as defined above, and such other fees as may be due, in full, within seventy-two (72) hours of the close of the auction. Sale is not final and property will not be released to Buyer until good funds for all amounts due, are received by GCA. No lot shall be transferred by Buyer to another person until the sale is final. In the event of partial payment for any lot or lots we shall apportion charges and apply payments, in our sole discretion. The Buyer grants GCA a security interest in the purchased Property, and we may retain as collateral any property purchased and any funds in our possession, to secure a Buyer's obligations to us, if any. We retain the rights of a secured party under the New York Commercial Code.

AUCTIONEER'S DISCRETION - Auctions can be fast paced and there are many moving pieces. Many times, snap decisions are made, and mistakes can be made easily with an errant click or with a misspeak. We have been in business over 35 years and have been recognized as the Best Auction House in the Hudson Valley 16 years running. However, we are only human and we realize now that mistakes have been made and in advance, we realize that mistakes will be made by our staff in the future. We understand from experience that losing a lot because of a clerking error can be emotionally impacting and we work hard to both avoid mistakes, and still keep up the fast-paced exciting atmosphere that we are known for. Regarding resolution for discrepancy and errors, the Auctioneer has the absolute discretion to; -(a) pass a lot or withdraw it from sale at any time prior to its actual sale; -(b) refuse to recognize any bidder in the interest of time or for any other reason; -(c) refuse to recognize any bid in the interest of avoiding trouble collecting, maintain a peaceable auction event, or for any other reason; -(d) resolve any dispute between bidders or resolve any doubtful bid by deciding who is the successful bidder or nullifying the auction of the lot and reoffering it for sale. The Auctioneer's decision is binding as to disputes arising at auction. If a dispute arises post sale, our records of the sale shall be conclusive. Both the Auctioneer and GCA shall be without any liability whatsoever resulting from the exercise of the discretion referred to herein. -(e) resolve any issue occurring from any error made by auctioneer, recording clerk, and or any other auction staff. e. RESERVES - All Property is offered for sale subject to a Reserve unless otherwise stated by us at time of sale. GCA may protect the Reserve by an initial bid or continued bidding on behalf of the consignor.
