2. BROWSE THE LOTS FOR SALE IN THE ONLINE ONLY AUCTION

Once the relevant Online Only Auction has opened, the Online Sale Information regarding each Lot for sale in the Online Only Auction is available for you to review.

Pre-sale estimates

As indicated in the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only), the Online Sale Information for each Lot includes pre-sale estimates which are provided by Replica Shoes 's as a guide for prospective Bidders to assist them with determining the appropriate amount to bid for a Lot. In our opinion, any bid for an amount which is between the high pre-sale estimate and the low pre-sale estimate stated in the Online Sale Information for the Lot would offer a chance of success. Having said that, it is important you appreciate that Lots can realize prices which are above or below the pre-sale estimates. It is advisable to check the pre-sale estimates prior to submission of a bid. Please note that the pre-sale estimates which are stated in the Online Sale Information do not include buyer's premium, any applicable taxes or tariffs.

Condition of Lots

The Online Sale Information includes the online catalogue description of the Lot; any online condition report provided in relation to the Lot by Replica Shoes 's solely as a convenience (and the online images of the Lot shall be deemed to form part of any such condition report); any other information relating to the Lot or the conduct of the Online Only Auction which is published on the Online Only Platform (including this Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction).

All Lots are offered for sale in the condition which they are in at the time of sale in an Online Only Auction. Any reference to condition in the Online Sale Information will not amount to a full description of the condition and the absence of any reference to the condition of a Lot in the online catalogue description does not imply that the Lot is free from faults or imperfections. It is important that you appreciate that you will not have an opportunity to inspect the condition of a Lot prior to submitting a bid in respect of such Lot. Please refer to Condition 3 of the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only) for further information regarding the basis upon which your bid for a Lot is submitted.

Motor Vehicles

Motor Vehicles are sold on the basis of their artistic, decorative or collectible value only, and should not be assumed to be operative or safe to use as a means of transport. It is essential that prior to any intended use, any Motor Vehicle is checked and approved by qualified personnel.

If buyers intend to use a Motor Vehicle offered for sale as a means of transport, it is their sole responsibility to ensure, before the sale, that it can be used safely, is in good condition, complies with the requirements of the Highway Traffic Act and other applicable standards and has the required certifications, documents and insurance in place. Replica Shoes 's does not provide any guarantee in this regard. To the fullest extent possible in law, the seller and Replica Shoes ’s accept no liability for the safety or operation of any Motor Vehicle.

In particular, it is the buyer’s sole responsibility to register with and obtain the relevant licence from the HK Transportation Department for the motorbike to be used on the roads of Hong Kong. Sotheby’s and the seller make no representation on the roadworthiness of a Motor Vehicle, nor take responsibility for any liability for failure to obtain the relevant registration and/or licence.

The electrical and mechanical components of Motor Vehicles are not inspected prior to sale. Buyers acquire them at their own risk.

"Mileage" or "Mileage Recorded" information contained in the Online Sales information, or any other document, is the distance read on the odometer. Replica Shoes 's does not guarantee that it corresponds to the distance actually travelled by the Motor Vehicle. Buyers must ensure by themselves that the condition of the Motor Vehicle is consistent with the mileage read on the meter.

Buyers will note that Motor Vehicles offered for sale may include parts that have replacement original parts, may have been repainted or consist of an assembly of parts from various vehicles, which makes it difficult to define their condition. Replica Shoes 's relies primarily on information provided by the sellers regarding the date, condition and authenticity of Motor Vehicles. Replica Shoes 's cannot conduct a detailed inspection of each Motor Vehicle.

In accordance with the legislation in force, Replica Shoes 's may be required to reveal to the seller the details of the buyer of a Motor Vehicle.

Export authorizations

It is the buyer’s responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import licence.

Import regulations

Sotheby's does not guarantee that a Motor Vehicle may be imported (regardless of age) into any country. Import rules are subject to change and bidders are advised to check with their own government import requirements for a Motor Vehicle prior to placing a bid.

Import into the United States

Some Motor Vehicles, including those under 25 years of age, may not be accepted for import into the United States. Bidders are advised to consult a broker approved by US Customs prior to placing a bid.

Import into Canada

Most Motor Vehicles under the age of 15 cannot be imported into Canada.

Electrical and Mechanical Goods / Pinballs

All electrical and mechanical goods, including pinballs, are sold on the basis of their artistic, decorative or collectible value only, and should not be assumed to be operative or safe to use. It is essential that prior to any intended use, any electrical and mechanical systems are checked and approved by qualified personnel.

Using a pinball for any commercial or trade or economic purposes (other than personal enjoyment in a private premises) may require licences from the Office of the Licensing Authority of Hong Kong or a similar authority in any other jurisdiction, which is the buyer’s sole responsibility. Sotheby’s shall not be responsible for any liability arising from any failure to obtaining the necessary licences.

The electrical and mechanical components are not inspected prior to sale. Buyers acquire them at their own risk.

Buyers will note that electrical and mechanical goods offered for sale may include parts that have replacement original parts, may have been repainted or consist of an assembly of parts from various goods, which makes it difficult to define their condition. Replica Shoes 's relies primarily on information provided by the sellers regarding the date, condition and authenticity of any goods. Replica Shoes 's cannot conduct a detailed inspection of each item offered for sale.

Provenance

In certain circumstances, Replica Shoes 's may publish in the online catalogue description for a Lot the history of ownership of a work of art if such information contributes to scholarship or is otherwise well known and assists in distinguishing the work of art. However, the identity of the seller or previous owners may not be disclosed for a variety of reasons. For example, such information may be excluded to accommodate a seller's request for confidentiality or because the identity of prior owners is unknown given the age of the work of art.

Bidding practices

In situations where a person who is allowed to bid on a Lot has a direct or indirect interest in such Lot, such as the beneficiary or executor of an estate selling the Lot, a joint owner of the Lot, or a party providing or participating in a guarantee of the Lot, Replica Shoes ’s will notify you by email and publish a notification in the Online Sale Information that interested parties may bid on the Lot. In certain instances, interested parties may have knowledge of the reserves.

Sotheby’s employees may bid only if the employee does not know the reserve and fully complies with Replica Shoes ’s internal rules governing employee bidding.

Information regarding shipping and delivery

Our office is open between the hours of 9.30am and 6.00pm and you can contact Post Sale Services on the number set out in the online catalogue.

If this occurs, Replica Shoes ’s will extend the sale of that Lot by 5 minutes from the time of the last bid.

7. FURTHER INFORMATION REGARDING SHIPPING, EXPORT OF PROPERTY AND RELATED MATTERS

The export of any lot from Hong Kong or import into any other country may be subject to one or more export or import licences being granted. It is the buyer's responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import licence. The denial of any licence required or delay in obtaining such licence cannot justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making payment of the total amount due. Replica Shoes 's, upon request and for an administrative fee, may apply for a licence to export your lot(s) outside Hong Kong. Replica Shoes 's recommends that you retain all import and export papers, including licences, as in certain countries you may be required to produce them to governmental authorities.

Items made of or incorporating plant or animal material, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, tortoiseshell, etc., irrespective of age or value, may require a licence or certificate prior to exportation and require additional licences or certificates upon importation to any country outside Hong Kong. Please note that the ability to obtain an export licence or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import licence or certificate in another country, and vice versa. For example, it is illegal to import African elephant ivory into the United States. Replica Shoes 's suggests that buyers check with their own government regarding wildlife import requirements prior to placing a bid. It is the buyer's responsibility to obtain any export or import licences and/or certificates as well as any other required documentation (please refer to Condition 10 of the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only)).

TAX INFORMATION FOR BUYERS

Buyers should note that local sales taxes or use taxes may become payable upon import of items following purchase (for example, use tax may be due when purchased items are imported into certain states in the US). Buyers should obtain their own advice in this regard.

In the event that Replica Shoes ’s ships items for a purchaser in this sale to a destination within a US state in which Replica Shoes ’s is registered to collect sales tax, Replica Shoes ’s is obliged to collect and remit the respective state’s sales /use tax in effect on the total purchase price (including hammer price, buyer’s premium, shipping costs and insurance), of such items, regardless of the country in which the purchaser resides or is a citizen. Where the purchaser has provided Replica Shoes ’s with a valid Resale Exemption Certificate prior to the release of the property, sales / use tax will not be charged. Clients who wish to provide resale or exemption documentation for their purchases should contact Post Sale Services Department.

Clients who wish to have their purchased lots shipped to the US by Replica Shoes ’s are advised to contact the Post Sale Services Department before arranging shipping.

TREATMENT AND CONDITION OF GEMSTONES

Traditionally, gemstones have been treated by a variety of techniques to enhance color and generally to improve their appearance. Typically, rubies and sapphires have been heat treated and emeralds have been treated by oil or resin to improve color and clarity. These or other techniques, such as dyeing, irradiation, coating and impregnation, may be used on other gemstones. Although it is widely believed that heat treatments are permanent, purchasers should assume that any treatment may not be permanent and that over time special care of the stone may be required. Prospective buyers are reminded that, unless the catalogue description specifically states that a stone is natural, we have assumed that some form of treatment may have been used and that such treatment may not be permanent. Our presale estimates reflect this assumption.

To the extent that Replica Shoes ’s has laboratory reports containing specific information on the treatment of a stone, these reports are made available for review by prospective buyers. Available reports from internationally recognized gemmological laboratories will be noted in the description of the item. New forms of treatments and new scientific methods to discern them are constantly being developed. Consequently, there may be a lack of consensus among laboratories as to whether gemstones have been treated, the extent of the treatment or the permanence of the treatment.

References in the e-catalogue descriptions to certificates or reports issued by gemmological laboratories are provided only for the information of bidders, and Replica Shoes ’s does not guarantee and accepts no responsibility for the accuracy, terms or information contained in such certificates or reports. Please also note that laboratories may differ in their assessment of a gemstone (including its origin and presence, type and extent of treatments) and their certificates or reports may contain different results.

Bidders acknowledge this fact and accept responsibility for carrying out investigations to satisfy themselves as to the Lots in which they may be interested.

All Lots are offered for sale in the condition they are in at the time of sale in the relevant Online Only Auction. Any reference to condition in the Online Sale Information will not amount to a full description of condition and the absence of any reference to the condition of a Lot in the online catalogue description does not imply that the Lot is free from faults or imperfections. Condition reports may be available to assist Bidders with assessing the condition of a Lot and are for guidance only. The online images of the Lot form part of the condition report provided by Replica Shoes ’s. Certain online images of the Lot may not accurately reflect the actual condition of the Lot. In particular, the online images may represent colours and shades which are different to the Lot’s actual colour and shades. The Online Sale Information and/or any condition report relating to the Lot may make reference to particular imperfections of the Lot but you should note that the Lot may have other faults not expressly referred to in the condition report for the Lot or shown in the online images of the Lot. The condition report may not refer to all faults, restoration, alteration or adaptation because Replica Shoes ’s is not a professional conservator or restorer but rather the condition report is a statement of opinion genuinely held by Replica Shoes ’s. For that reason, Replica Shoes ’s condition report is not an alternative to taking your own professional advice regarding the condition of the Lot. Please note that all electrical and mechanical goods are sold on the basis of their artistic and decorative value only, and should not be assumed to be operative. It is essential that prior to any intended use, the electrical system for any Lot is checked and approved by a qualified electrician.

(c) The Online Sale Information provided to Bidders in respect of a Lot, and any other estimate, whether written or oral, or other report, commentary or valuation, is not a representation of fact but rather is a statement of opinion genuinely held by Replica Shoes ’s. Any estimate may not be relied on as a prediction of the selling price or value of the Lot and may be revised from time to time in Replica Shoes 's absolute discretion.

(d) No representations or warranties are made by Replica Shoes 's or the Seller as to whether any Lot is subject to copyright or whether the Buyer acquires copyright in any Lot.

(f) Unless Replica Shoes ’s decides to exercise its discretion in accordance with Condition 6(g) below, the highest bid when the Lot closes will be the successful Bidder.

Any symbols or notices in the sale catalogue reflect Replica Shoes ’s reasonable opinion at the time of cataloguing and offer Bidders general guidance only. For further guidance on export/import restrictions, please refer to the Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction set out above.

(d) Without prejudice to Conditions 3 and 4 above, Replica Shoes 's and the Seller make no representations or warranties as to whether any lot is or is not subject to export or import restrictions or any embargoes. The denial of any permit or licence shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale contract or any delay in payment.

(a) If the Buyer is an Online Consumer and the Seller is an Online Trader, the Buyer may have the right to cancel the sale contract which exists directly between the Online Trader (as Seller) and the Online Consumer (as Buyer) during the Online Sale Cancellation Period for any reason provided that (i) the Online Consumer duly informs Replica Shoes ’s during the Online Cancellation Period of their intention to cancel the purchase of the Lot; and (ii) the Online Consumer returns the Lot to Replica Shoes ’s without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen (14) calendar days from the day after the Online Consumer has communicated their intention to cancel the purchase of the Lot to Replica Shoes ’s.

Alternatively, the Online Consumer may use the model cancellation form set out below. Provided that the Online Consumer sends the communication to inform the Online Trader of the cancellation prior to the end of the Online Sale Cancellation Period, the Online Consumer will be deemed to have cancelled the sales contract within the Online Sale Cancellation Period.

(c) If the Online Consumer cancels the sales contract within the Online Sale Cancellation Period, Replica Shoes ’s will reimburse (without undue delay and in any event within fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt of the returned Lot from the Online Consumer within the time frame specified in Condition 11(a)(ii)) payments received by Replica Shoes ’s from the Online Consumer (including the Purchase Price and any Standard Online Delivery Costs).

Sotheby’s is entitled to deduct from the reimbursement the amount of any loss in value of the Lot which is caused as a result of unnecessary handling by you.

(f) You shall send back the Lot or hand it over to us at such address as we may specify for the purpose, without undue delay and in any event no later than 14 calendar days from the day after which you communicate your cancellation of your purchase of the Lot to us. This deadline is met if you send back the Lot before the period of 14 calendar days has expired. You will have to bear the direct costs of returning the Lot. If we arranged for the Lot to be delivered we estimate that the cost of returning the Lot by the same means is likely to be similar to the cost of delivery but it is not possible for us to be more accurate as to this cost due to the many variables involved in our worldwide business model and the means by which a return might be made.

12. Cancellation of Services

Replica Shoes ’s will make any reimbursement due to you without undue delay and in any event, not later than fourteen (14) days after the date on which we are informed about your decision to cancel the services.

If Replica Shoes ’s sells an item which subsequently is shown to be a “counterfeit”, subject to the terms below Replica Shoes ’s will set aside the sale and refund to the Buyer the total amount paid by the Buyer to Replica Shoes ’s for the item, in the currency of the original sale.

For these purposes, “counterfeit” means a lot that in Replica Shoes ’s reasonable opinion is an imitation created to deceive as to authorship, origin, date, age, period, culture or source, where the correct description of such matters is not reflected by the description in the catalogue (taking into account any Glossary of Terms). No lot shall be considered a counterfeit by reason only of any damage and/or restoration and/or modification work of any kind (including repainting or over-painting).

Please note that this Guarantee does not apply if either:-

(i) the catalogue description was in accordance with the generally accepted opinions of scholars and experts at the date of the sale, or the catalogue description indicated that there was a conflict of such opinions; or

(ii) the only method of establishing at the date of the sale that the item was a counterfeit would have been by means of processes not then generally available or accepted, unreasonably expensive or impractical to use; or likely to have caused damage to the lot or likely (in Replica Shoes ’s reasonable opinion) to have caused loss of value to the lot; or

(iii)there has been no material loss in value of the lot from its value had it been in accordance with its description.

This Guarantee is provided for a period of five (5) years after the date of the relevant auction, is solely for the benefit of the Buyer and may not be transferred to any third party. To be able to claim under this Guarantee, the Buyer must:-

(i) notify Replica Shoes ’s in writing within three (3) months of receiving any information that causes the Buyer to question the authenticity or attribution of the item, specifying the lot number, date of the auction at which it was purchased and the reasons why it is thought to be counterfeit; and

(ii) return the item to Replica Shoes ’s in the same condition as at the date of sale to the Buyer and be able to transfer good title in the item, free from any third party claims arising after the date of the sale.

Sotheby's has discretion to waive any of the above requirements. Sotheby's may require the Buyer to obtain at the Buyer's cost the reports of two independent and recognised experts in the field, mutually acceptable to Replica Shoes 's and the Buyer. Replica Shoes 's shall not be bound by any reports produced by the Buyer, and reserves the right to seek additional expert advice at its own expense. In the event Replica Shoes 's decides to rescind the sale under this Guarantee, it may refund to the Buyer the reasonable costs of up to two mutually approved independent expert reports.

This Guarantee is provided for a period of twenty one (21) days after the date of the relevant auction, is solely for the benefit of the Buyer and may not be transferred to any third party. To be able to claim under this Guarantee, the Buyer must:-
