GUIDE TO BUYING IN AN ONLINE ONLY AUCTION

The following guidance is intended to give you useful information on how to buy in an Online Only Auction. We recommend that you read the guidance below carefully in order to familiarize yourself with the way that the Online Only Platform works before you start to participate in an Online Only Auction. It is also important that you read the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only) which are set out below and note that Replica Shoes ’s acts for the seller; you should refer in particular to Conditions 3 and 4 of the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only). Terms defined in this Guide shall have the same meaning as in the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only) unless the context otherwise requires.

1. REGISTER A VERIFIED ACCOUNT WITH SOTHEBY’S

In order to be eligible to participate in an Online Only Auction, you must have registered, and maintain, a Verified Account. The registration process requires you to enter your debit card or credit card information, your address and to confirm that you have read and accept our Conditions of Business for Buyers, the Authenticity Guarantee and this Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction.

2. BROWSE THE LOTS FOR SALE

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.

Please note that a printed catalogue is also available for this sale.

Pre-sale estimates

As indicated in the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only), the Online Sale Information for each Lot and the printed catalogue include 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 and in the printed catalogue 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 and in the printed catalogue do not include buyer’s premium, any applicable VAT (or any amount in lieu of VAT) or any applicable ARR.

Condition of Lots

The Online Sale Information and the printed catalogue include the online catalogue description of the Lot. The Online Sale Information includes also any online condition report provided in relation to the Lot by Replica Shoes ’s solely as a convenience (and any images of the Lot shall be deemed to form part of any such condition report) and 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 or in the printed catalogue will not amount to a full description of the condition and the absence of any reference to the condition of a Lot in the 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.

Provenance

In certain circumstances, Replica Shoes ’s may publish in the 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

The Online Sale Information includes a shipping costs calculator which has been developed by Replica Shoes ’s to enable you to estimate the amount it will cost you to have the Lot shipped to your delivery address (inclusive of VAT, associated packing and transit insurance costs) in the event that you are the successful Bidder so that you are able to account for this cost in your assessment of the appropriate amount to bid for a Lot. Please also note that the transit insurance price quoted by the shipping costs calculator shall not include the impact of any applicable ARR on the total purchase price payable in respect of a Lot by the Buyer. Please also note that the shipping cost which is generated by the shipping costs calculator may differ to the actual amount of the Buyer’s Shipping Costs which is quoted to you in the Buyer’s Shipping Quote (which shall include the amount of any applicable ARR payable in relation to the Lot).

Sotheby’s is always happy to discuss any Lot in which you are interested. Further information requests can be submitted via the ‘Request Info’ button which appears at Lot level on the Online Only Platform.

3. SUBMISSION OF A BID FOR A LOT IN AN ONLINE ONLY AUCTION

An Online Only Auction can be fast moving. Competitive bidding can often escalate very quickly. Once you have set up a Verified Account, you will be able to submit a bid for a Lot by entering your maximum bid and clicking the ‘Leave Bid’ button which appears at Lot level on the Online Only Platform. If you haven’t already registered as a Verified Accountholder, you will be prompted to do so at that point. You will then be asked to review and confirm your maximum bid. As soon as the ‘Leave Bid’ button or the ‘Place Bid’ is clicked, your bid is submitted. You accept and agree that a bid is submitted using the ‘Leave Bid’ or the ‘Place Bid’ button.

Bids can be submitted through the Online Only Platform from the start of the Online Only Auction until the Lot closes. Enter your maximum bid (being the highest price you are willing to pay on the Lot). The Online Only Platform will then place incremental bids on your behalf up to your maximum bid for as long as you are the highest bidder. Sotheby’s uses pre-determined bidding increments. Please refer to the bidding increments link which appears at Lot level on the Online Only Platform. In cases where two equivalent maximum bids are submitted, the first bid received will take priority.

4. MONITOR YOUR BIDS

If you are outbid at any time you will receive an email notification informing you accordingly and the email notification will provide a link to follow to increase your bid. We encourage you to monitor the bids on Lots throughout the duration of the Online Only Auction to ensure your status as the highest bidder up until the close of the Online Only Auction.

5. CLOSING THE ONLINE ONLY AUCTION

An end time is displayed for each Lot at Lot level on the Online Only Platform. Lots will close at the time stated at Lot level on the Online Only Platform unless a bid is placed within 1 minute of a Lot’s scheduled end time. If this occurs, Replica Shoes ’s will extend the sale of that Lot by 5 minutes from the time of the last bid. The extension of any Lot’s closing time does not affect the closing time of the following Lots. This may result in Lots closing out of numerical order.

6. HOW TO PAY FOR YOUR LOT

If you are a successful Buyer of a Lot, Replica Shoes ’s will email you the Buyer’s Invoice for the total amount due by you (together with payment instructions) as soon as reasonably practicable after the final Lot in the relevant Online Only Auction closes. Payment from the invoiced party is due in full by the payment date stated in the Buyer’s Invoice. Please note that we reserve the right to decline payments received from anyone other than the buyer of record and that clearance of such payments will be required. Please contact our Post Sale Services Department if you have any questions concerning clearance.

Subject to the limitations and requirements in the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only), Replica Shoes ’s accepts the following forms of payment: Sterling wire transfer, Sterling cheque, Sterling cash (in person at our New Bond Street premises only), UK debit card.

Please refer to Condition 8 of the Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only) for further details regarding payment of a purchased Lot.

A Buyer’s Premium is payable by the successful Bidder on a Lot in an Online Only Auction.

In an Online Only Auction conducted by Replica Shoes ’s in London, the Buyer’s Premium rate is as follows: 25% of the Hammer Price up to and including £300,000, 20% of any amount in excess of £300,000 up to and including £3,000,000 and 13.9% of any amount in excess of £3,000,000.

Sotheby’s will also email you the Buyer’s Shipping Quote in respect of the Buyer’s Shipping Costs payable by the Buyer in consideration of Replica Shoes ’s delivery services for the purchased Lot at which point Replica Shoes ’s will ask you to confirm your delivery address. In the event that you are eligible for a VAT rebate based on your confirmed delivery address, Replica Shoes ’s may reissue the Buyer’s Invoice.

Provided that the Buyer’s Invoice has been settled in full by the payment date stated in the Buyer’s Invoice and the Buyer’s Shipping Quote has been settled in full by the payment date stated in the Buyer’s Shipping Quote, any financial release of the property has been completed and any requisite export licence or certificates has been provided to Replica Shoes ’s, Replica Shoes ’s will ship the purchased property to your delivery address no later than thirty (30) days from the closing date of the relevant Online Only Auction.

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

All shipments should be unpacked and checked on delivery and any discrepancies notified immediately to the party identified in your quotation and/or the accompanying documentation.

The export of any lot from the UK 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.

Sotheby’s, upon request and for an administrative fee, may apply for a licence to export your lot(s) outside the UK. An EU Licence is necessary to export cultural goods subject to the EU Regulation on the export of cultural property (EEC No. 3911/92, Official Journal No. L395 of 31/12/92) from the European Community. A UK Licence is necessary to move cultural goods valued at or above the relevant UK Licence limits from the UK. For export outside the European Community, an EU Licence will be required for most items over 50 years of age with a value of over £39,219. The following is a selection of categories of items for which other value limits apply and for which an EU Licence may be required. It is not exhaustive and there are other restrictions:

Sotheby’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.

Please note that Replica Shoes ’s is unable to arrange delivery to those locations which are specified as excluded zones in the shipping costs calculator which is available on the Online Only Platform (each an “Unavailable Destination”). In the event that you request delivery of a Lot to an Unavailable Destination, Replica Shoes ’s reserves the right to require you to collect the Lot from the Replica Shoes ’s storage facility at Greenford (13 Ockham Drive, Greenford, Middlesex, UB6 0FD) or to arrange delivery of the Lot by a third party carrier.

EU Licence Thresholds

UK Licence Thresholds

Photographic positive or negative or any assemblage of such photographs: UK Licence threshold: £10,000

Textiles (excluding carpets and tapestries): UK Licence threshold: £12,000

British Historical Portraits: UK Licence threshold: £10,000

Endangered Species: 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 the EU. 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 US and there are other restrictions on the importation of ivory into the US under certain US regulations which are designed to protect wildlife conservation.

Sotheby’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). Please note that Replica Shoes ’s is not able to assist buyers with the shipment of any Lots containing ivory and/or other restricted materials into the US. A buyer’s inability to export or import these Lots cannot justify a delay in payment or a sale’s cancellation.

US Economic Sanctions: The United States maintains economic and trade sanctions against targeted foreign countries, groups and organisations. There may be restrictions on the import into the United States of certain items originating in sanctioned countries, including Burma, Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Sudan. The purchaser’s inability to import any item into the US or any other country as a result of these or other restrictions shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale or any delay in payment. Please check with the specialist department if you are uncertain as to whether a Lot is subject to these import restrictions, or any other restrictions on importation or exportation.

EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS

The following key explains the symbols you may see inside this catalogue.

△ Property in which Replica Shoes ’s has an Ownership Interest

Lots with this symbol indicate that Replica Shoes ’s owns the lot in whole or in part or has an economic interest in the lot equivalent to an ownership interest.

⊻ Interested Parties

Lots with this symbol indicate that parties with a direct or indirect interest in the lot may be bidding on the lot, including (i) the beneficiary of an estate selling the lot, or (ii) the joint owner of a lot. If the interested party is the successful bidder, they will be required to pay the full Buyer’s Premium. In certain instances, interested parties may have knowledge of the reserve. In the event the interested party’s possible participation in the sale is not known until after the printing of the auction catalogue, a pre-lot announcement will be made indicating that interested parties may be bidding on the lot.

□ No Reserve

Unless indicated by a box (¡à), all lots in this catalogue are offered subject to a reserve. A reserve is the confidential hammer price established between Replica Shoes ’s and the seller and below which a lot will not be sold. The reserve is generally set at a percentage of the low estimate and will not exceed the low estimate for the lot. If any lots in the catalogue are offered without a reserve, these lots are indicated by a box (¡à). If all lots in the catalogue are offered without a reserve, a Special Notice will be included to this effect and the box symbol will not be used for each lot.

⊕ Property Subject to the Artist’s Resale Right

Purchase of lots marked with this symbol (§]) will be subject to payment of the Artist’s Resale Right, at a percentage of the hammer price calculated as follows:

Portion of the hammer price (in €)

Royalty Rate

From 0 to 50,000 4%

From 50,000.01 to 200,000 3%

From 200,000.01 to 350,000 1%

From 350,000.01 to 500,000 0.5%

Exceeding 500,000 0.25%

The Artist’s Resale Right payable will be the aggregate of the amounts payable under the above rate bands, subject to a maximum royalty payable of 12,500 euros for any single work each time it is sold. The maximum royalty payable of 12,500 euros applies to works sold for 2 million euros and above. Calculation of the artist’s resale right will be based on the pound sterling / Euro reference exchange rate quoted on the date of the sale by the European Central Bank.

⦿ Restricted Materials

Lots with this symbol have been identified at the time of cataloguing as containing organic material which may be subject to restrictions regarding import or export. The information is made available for the convenience of Buyers and the absence of the Symbol is not a warranty that there are no restrictions regarding import or export of the Lot; Bidders should refer to Condition 11 of the Conditions of Business for Buyers. Please also refer to the section on Endangered Species in the Buying at Auction Guide. As indicated in the Endangered Species section, Replica Shoes ’s is not able to assist buyers with the shipment of any lots with this symbol into the US.

A buyer’s inability to export or import any lots with this symbol cannot justify a delay in payment or a sale’s cancellation.

∏ Monumental

Lots with this symbol may, in our opinion, require special handling or shipping services due to size or other physical considerations. Buyers are advised to inspect the lot and to contact Replica Shoes ’s prior to the sale to discuss any specific shipping requirements.

Please refer to VAT information for Buyers for VAT symbols used in this catalogue. Value Added Tax (VAT) may be payable on the hammer price and/or the buyer’s premium. Buyer’s premium may attract a charge in lieu of VAT. Please read carefully the “VAT INFORMATION FOR BUYERS” printed in this catalogue.

VAT AND OTHER TAX INFORMATION FOR BUYERS

As a successful Bidder for a Lot in an Online Only Auction, you will be charged VAT or any other applicable sales tax (unless an exemption applies). Any such taxes will be identified in the Buyer’s Invoice.

The following paragraphs are intended to give general guidance to buyers on the VAT and certain other potential tax implications of purchasing property at Replica Shoes ’s. The information concerns the most usual circumstances and is not intended to be complete. In all cases the relevant tax legislation takes precedence and the VAT rates in effect on the date of the sale of a Lot in the Online Only Auction will be the rates charged except for Lots sold subject to Temporary Admission for which the applicable rate will be that in force at the date of release of the relevant Lot by Replica Shoes ’s. It should be noted that, for VAT purposes only, Replica Shoes ’s is not usually treated as an agent and most property is sold as if it is the property of Replica Shoes ’s.

In the following paragraphs, reference to VAT symbols shall mean those symbols located beside the Lot number or the pre-sale estimates in the catalogue (or amending sale room notice).

1. PROPERTY WITH NO VAT SYMBOL

Where there is no VAT symbol the property is free from VAT and Replica Shoes ’s will not charge VAT on either the Hammer Price or the Buyer’s Premium.

2. PROPERTY WITH A # SYMBOL

Although these items are not free from VAT, Replica Shoes ’s is able to use the margin scheme and VAT will not normally be charged on the Hammer Price.

Sotheby’s must bear VAT on the buyer’s premium and hence will charge an amount in lieu of VAT at the standard rate on this premium. This amount will form part of the Buyer’s Premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified.

Please see ‘Exports from the European Union’ for the conditions to be fulfilled before the amount in lieu of VAT in the Buyer’s Premium may be cancelled or refunded.

VAT-registered buyers from within the European Union (EU) should note that the amount in lieu of VAT contained within the Buyer’s Premium cannot be cancelled or refunded by Replica Shoes ’s or HM Revenue and Customs.

Buyers from within the EU requiring an invoice under the normal VAT rules, instead of a margin scheme invoice, should notify the Post Sale Service Group or the Client Accounts Department on the day of the auction and an invoice with VAT on the Hammer Price will be raised. Buyers requiring reinvoicing under the normal VAT rules subsequent to a margin scheme invoice having been raised should contact the Client Accounts Department for assistance.

3. PROPERTY WITH A ‘SINGLE DAGGER’ SYMBOL

These items are standard-rated and will be sold under the normal UK VAT rules. Both the hammer price and Buyer’s Premium will be subject to VAT at the standard rate.

Please see ‘Exports from the European Union’ for the conditions to be fulfilled before the VAT charged on the Hammer Price may be cancelled or refunded. Replica Shoes ’s must always charge VAT on the Buyer’s Premium for these lots and will neither cancel nor refund the VAT charged.

VAT-registered buyers from other European Union (EU) countries may have the VAT cancelled or refunded if they provide Replica Shoes ’s with their VAT registration number and evidence that the property has been removed from the UK within three months of the date of sale. The evidence of removal required is a certificate of shipment or, if the lots were carried by hand, proof of travel and completion of a form available from the Post Sale Service Group.

All business buyers from outside the UK should refer to ‘VAT Refunds from HM Revenue and Customs’ for information on how to recover VAT incurred on the Buyer’s Premium.

4. PROPERTY WITH A ‘ALPHA’ SYMBOL

Items sold to buyers whose address is in the EU will be assumed to be remaining in the EU. The property will be invoiced as if it had a # symbol (see ‘Property with a # symbol’ at section 2 above). However, if the property is to be exported from the EU, Replica Shoes ’s will re-invoice the property under the normal VAT rules (see ‘Property sold with a ‘SINGLE DAGGER’ symbol’ at section 3 above) as requested by the seller.

Items sold to buyers whose address is outside the EU will be assumed to be exported from the EU. The property will be invoiced under the normal VAT rules (see ‘Property sold with a ‘SINGLE DAGGER’ symbol’ at section 2 above). Although the Hammer Price will be subject to VAT this will be cancelled or refunded upon export - see ‘Exports from the European Union’. The Buyer’s Premium will always attract VAT. However, buyers who are not intending to export their property from the EU should notify our Client Accounts Department on the day of the sale and the property will be re-invoiced showing no VAT on the Hammer Price (see ‘Property sold with a # symbol’ at section 2 above).

5. PROPERTY SOLD WITH A ‘DOUBLE DAGGER’ OR ‘OMEGA’ SYMBOL

These items have been imported from outside the European Union (EU) to be sold at auction under Temporary Admission. When Replica Shoes ’s releases such property to buyers in the UK, the buyer will become the importer and must pay Replica Shoes ’s import VAT at the following rates on the hammer price:

‘DOUBLE DAGGER’ - the reduced rate

‘OMEGA’ - the standard rate

You should also note that the appropriate rate will be that in force on the date of dispatch of the property from Replica Shoes ’s and not that in force at the closing date of the Online Only Auction.

These lots will be invoiced under the margin scheme. Replica Shoes ’s must bear VAT on the Buyer’s Premium and hence will charge an amount in lieu of VAT at the standard rate on this premium. This amount will form part of the Buyer’s Premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified.

(VAT-registered buyers from the EU should note that the import VAT charged on property released in the UK cannot be cancelled or refunded by Replica Shoes ’s, however you may be able to seek repayment) by applying to HM Revenue and Customs - see ‘VAT Refunds from HM Revenue and Customs’ at section 7 below)

(VAT-registered buyers from the UK should note that the invoice issued by Replica Shoes ’s for these items is not suitable evidence in respect of import VAT.)

On request, immediately after the closing date of the relevant Online Only Auction, the Temporary Admission Department can either ask HM Revenue and Customs to generate a C79 certificate (for UK buyers), or obtain a copy of the import C88 (for other EU VAT registered buyers), which may be used to claim recovery of the VAT. Otherwise Replica Shoes ’s may re-invoice the lot as if it had been sold with a ‘SINGLE DAGGER’ symbol and charge VAT at the standard rate on both the Hammer Price and Buyer’s Premium and provide a tax invoice to the buyer. This may enable a buyer who is VAT registered elsewhere in the EU to avoid payment of VAT in the United Kingdom. Re-invoicing in this way may make the lot ineligible to be re-sold using the margin scheme.

Sotheby’s will transfer all lots sold subject to Temporary Admission to its Customs warehouse immediately after sale.

6. EXPORTS FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION

The following amounts of VAT may be cancelled or refunded by Replica Shoes ’s on exports made within three months of the sale date if strict conditions are met:

- the amount in lieu of VAT charged on Buyer’s Premium for property sold under the margin scheme i.e. with a # symbol or an ‘alpha’ symbol.

- the VAT on the Hammer Price for property sold under the normal VAT rules i.e. with a † symbol or a an ‘alpha’ symbol.

- the import VAT charged on the Hammer Price and Buyer’s Premium for property sold under Temporary Admission i.e. with a ‘double dagger’ or ‘omega’ symbol.

In each of the above examples, where the appropriate conditions are satisfied, no VAT will be charged if, at or before the time of invoicing, the buyer instructs Replica Shoes ’s to export the property from the EU. If such instruction is received after payment, a refund of the VAT amount will be made. If a buyer later decides not to use Replica Shoes ’s shipping services a revised invoice will be raised charging VAT.

Where the buyer carries purchases from the EU personally or uses the services of another shipper, Replica Shoes ’s will charge the VAT amount due as a deposit and refund it if the lot has been exported within three months of the date of sale and the following conditions are met:

- For lots sold under the margin scheme (# symbol) or the normal VAT rules († symbol), Replica Shoes ’s is provided with appropriate documentary proof of export from the EU. Buyers carrying their own property should obtain hand-carry papers from the Shipping department to facilitate this process.

- For lots subject to Temporary Admission.

Property subject to Temporary Admission must be transferred to another Customs procedure immediately if any restoration or repair work is to be carried out.

- buyers carrying their own property must obtain hand-carry papers from the Shipping Department for which a charge of £30 will be made. The VAT refund will be processed once the appropriate paperwork has been returned to Replica Shoes ’s.

- Replica Shoes ’s is not able to cancel or refund any VAT charged on sales made to UK or EU private residents unless the lot is subject to Temporary Admission and the property is exported from the EU and Replica Shoes ’s is instructed to ship directly within three months .

- any refund of VAT is subject to a minimum of £50 per shipment and a processing charge of £20.

7. VAT REFUNDS FROM HMRC

Where VAT charged cannot be cancelled or refunded by Replica Shoes ’s, it may be possible to seek repayment from HM Revenue and Customs. Repayments in this manner are limited to businesses located outside the UK and may be considered for:

VAT charged on Buyer’s Premium on property sold under the normal VAT rules (i.e. with a ‘dagger’ or ‘alpha’ symbol)

import VAT charged on the Hammer Price and Buyer’s Premium for lots sold under Temporary Admission (i.e. with a ‘double dagger’ or ‘omega’ symbol)

Email the Overseas Repayment Unit: Newcastle.oru@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk

Use this email to contact HMRC about reclaiming VAT paid in the UK if your business is based overseas.

8. SALES AND USES TAXES

Buyers from outside the UK should note that local sales taxes or use taxes may become payable upon import of items following purchase (for example, the Use Tax payable on import of purchased items to certain states of the USA). Buyers should obtain their own advice in this regard.

In the event that Replica Shoes ’s ships items for a purchaser in an Online Only Auction 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 the relevant state’s sales or use tax 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 and use tax will not be charged. Clients who wish to have their purchased lots shipped to the US by Replica Shoes ’s are advised to contact following telephone number:

You should read these Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only) and the Online Sale Information (including, but not limited to, the Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction set out above) carefully before placing a bid for any Lot. In particular, Bidders’ attention is specifically drawn to Condition 4 below, which contains specific limitations and exclusions of the legal liability of Replica Shoes ’s and Sellers.

By bidding for a Lot in an Online Only Auction on the Online Only Platform, you agree that these Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only) and the Online Sale Information shall be contractually binding on you. In the event that you are the successful Bidder for a Lot in an Online Only Auction, you agree that these Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only) and the applicable Online Sale Information will constitute the contract which governs the relationship between Replica Shoes ’s, Sellers and Bidders.

1. Introduction

(a) Replica Shoes ’s and Sellers’ contractual relationship with prospective Buyers is governed by:

(i) these Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only);

(ii) the Conditions of Business for Sellers (Online Only) a copy of which can be provided to you on request;

(iii) the Online Sale Information (including, but not limited to, the Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction set out above); and

(iv) Replica Shoes ’s Authenticity Guarantee, as applicable to the item of Property (set out below).

(b) The Online Sale Information will identify the owner of the Lot immediately prior to the start of the Online Only Auction as either (i) a third party (in which case, Replica Shoes ’s acts as agent for the Seller) or (ii) Replica Shoes ’s (in which case, Replica Shoes ’s acts in principal capacity as Seller). In the case of (i), Replica Shoes ’s provides services to the Seller including, but not limited to, concluding the sale contract which exists directly between the Seller and the Buyer (with Replica Shoes ’s acting as agent on behalf of the Seller). In the case of (ii), Sotheby’s owns the Lot in whole or in part and/or may have a legal, beneficial or financial interest in the Lot as a secured creditor or otherwise.

In circumstances where the Seller is an Online Consumer, the right to cancel the purchase of a Lot does not apply however the Buyer may have the right (under the Consumer Contracts Regulations) to cancel certain services provided by Replica Shoes ’s in connection with the purchase of the Lot (in accordance with the procedure set out at Condition 12 of these Conditions of Business for Buyers (Online Only)).

3. Duties of Bidders and of Replica Shoes ’s in respect of items for sale

(a) Replica Shoes ’s knowledge in relation to each Lot is partially dependent on information provided to it by the Seller, and Replica Shoes ’s is not able to and does not carry out exhaustive due diligence on each Lot. Bidders acknowledge this fact and accept responsibility for carrying out investigations to satisfy themselves as to the Lots in which they may be interested.

(b) Bidders acknowledge that many Lots are of an age and type which means that they are not in perfect condition. 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 or in the printed catalogue 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 images of the Lot may not accurately reflect the actual condition of the Lot. In particular, the images may represent colours and shades which are different to the Lot’s actual colour and shades. The Online Sale Information and/or the printed catalogue 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 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 and the printed catalogue 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.

(e) Subject to the matters referred to at 3(a) to 3(d) above and to the specific exclusions contained at Condition 4 below, Replica Shoes ’s shall exercise such reasonable care when making express statements in the Online Sale Information (including, but not limited to, the catalogue description and any condition report relating to the Lot) as is consistent with the standard of care which a Bidder would reasonably expect from an auction house of Replica Shoes ’s standing taking into account the estimate of the relevant Lot and in the light of:

(i) the information provided to it by the Seller;

(ii) scholarship and technical knowledge; and

(iii) the generally accepted opinions of relevant experts, in each case at the time any such express statement is made.

4. Exclusions and limitations of liability to Buyers

(a) Replica Shoes ’s shall refund the Purchase Price to the Buyer in circumstances where it deems that the Lot is a Counterfeit and each of the conditions of the applicable Authenticity Guarantee has been satisfied.

(b) In the light of the matters in Condition 3 above and subject to Conditions 4(a) and 4(e), neither any Replica Shoes ’s Company nor the Seller:

(i) is liable for any errors or omissions in information provided to Bidders by Replica Shoes ’s (or any Replica Shoes ’s Company), whether orally or in writing, whether negligent or otherwise, except as set out in Condition 3(e) above;

(ii) gives any guarantee or warranty to Bidders and any implied warranties and conditions are excluded (save in so far as such obligations cannot be excluded by law) other than the express warranties given by the Seller to the Buyer in Condition 2 of the Sellers’ Conditions of Business;

(iii) accepts responsibility to any Bidders in respect of acts or omissions (whether negligent or otherwise) by Replica Shoes ’s in connection with the conduct of the Online Only Auction and/or the operation of the Online Only Platform or for any matter relating to the sale of any Lot.

(c) Unless Replica Shoes ’s owns a Lot offered for sale, it is not responsible for any breach of these conditions by the Seller.

(d) Without prejudice to Condition 4(b), any claim against Replica Shoes ’s or the Seller by a Bidder is limited to the amount of Purchase Price with regard to that Lot. Neither Replica Shoes ’s nor the Seller shall under any circumstances be liable for any indirect or consequential losses.

(e) Nothing in this Condition 4 shall exclude or limit Replica Shoes ’s liability in respect of any fraudulent misrepresentation made by Replica Shoes ’s or the Seller, or in respect of death or personal injury caused by the negligent acts or omissions of Replica Shoes ’s or the Seller.

6. Bidding in an Online Only Auction

(a) Bidding opens at a specified amount (which is below the presale low estimate for the Lot) and escalates in bid increments which are set out in the Online Sale Information relating to the Lot and in the printed catalogue and which are determined at Replica Shoes ’s discretion). Replica Shoes ’s may vary the amount of the bid increments during the course of an Online Only Auction, at our sole discretion. Bids for a Lot may only be submitted between the dates and times specified in the Online Sale Information and in the printed catalogue relating to the applicable Online Only Auction.

(b) An Online Only Auction can be fast-moving. Competitive bidding can often escalate very quickly. Once you have set up a Verified Account, you will be able to submit a bid for a Lot by entering your maximum bid and clicking the ‘Leave Bid’ button. If you haven’t already registered as a Verified Accountholder, you will be prompted to do so at that point. You will then be asked to review and confirm your maximum bid. As soon as the ‘Place Bid’ button is clicked, your bid is submitted. You accept and agree that a bid which is submitted using the ‘Leave Bid’ button. Each Bidder will be entitled to amend, retract or revoke up to three separate bids in an Online Only Auction but thereafter, the Online Only Platform will not under any circumstances allow you to amend, retract or revoke a bid. If a bid is successfully submitted on a Lot in an Online Only Auction from a Bidder’s computer or mobile device, the Bidder irrevocably agrees to pay the amounts identified in Condition 8(b) below, in full. Sotheby’s is not responsible for any errors that the Bidder makes in bidding on a Lot. Sotheby’s reserves the right to restart an Online Only Auction or to restart bidding on a particular Lot if we consider it is necessary or appropriate or reasonable to do so.

(c) The Online Only Platform requires that you submit a bid which correlates to one of the increments set out in the bidding increment table which is available to view at Lot level.

(d) If you have the leading bid on a Lot, you will receive a notification on the Online Only Platform informing you that you are the highest bidder. If you are outbid by another Bidder, you will receive an email notification to inform you accordingly.

(e) In the event that you submit a bid for an amount at which a bid has already been accepted, your bid shall be rejected.

(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. This means that a contract for sale has been formed between the Seller and the successful Bidder at the end of the Online Only Auction. The successful Bidder will receive an email notification of any successful bid and will be invoiced by Replica Shoes ’s in accordance with Condition 8 below.

(g) The sale record for an Online Only Auction maintained by Replica Shoes ’s will be taken as absolute and final in all disputes. In the event of any discrepancy between the sale record for an Online Only Auction maintained by Replica Shoes ’s and any message or notification provided to you in relation to your bid on a Lot and/or the applicable Online Only Auction, the sale record for the Online Only Auction maintained by Replica Shoes ’s shall prevail.

(h) Replica Shoes ’s reserves the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to reject, revoke or refuse to accept any bid submitted for a Lot using the Online Only Platform even those bids which have previously been accepted; to withdraw any Lot whether prior to or during the Online Only Auction and Replica Shoes ’s shall have no liability whatsoever in connection with such withdrawal; to divide or combine any Lots; or to restart the bidding on a Lot at any time during the Online Only Auction.

7. Operation of the Online Only Platform

(a) Unless otherwise specified, all Lots are offered subject to a Reserve, which shall be no higher than the low presale estimate at the opening time for the applicable Online Only Auction. If any Lot is not subject to a Reserve, the ‘No Reserve’ symbol will be displayed against the Lot in the Online Sale Information and in the printed catalogue. Under no circumstances will the system place any bid on behalf of the Seller at or above the Reserve.

(b) Replica Shoes ’s offers the Online Only Platform as a convenience to its clients and the Online Only Platform shall be operated by Replica Shoes ’s using reasonable care. The application that enables participation in an Online Only Auction via the Online Only Platform is optimized for broadband connectivity (DSL or cable modem). Broadband or other internet capacity constraints, corporate firewalls and other technical problems beyond our reasonable control may create difficulties for some users including, for example, in relation to accessing an Online Only Auction via the Online Only Platform and in maintaining continuity of such access. Sotheby’s will not be liable for any errors or failure by Bidders to place bids using the Online Only Platform via the internet or a mobile device (except where any such error or failure is within Replica Shoes ’s reasonable control) including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by: (i) any loss of connection between Bidders and the Online Only Platform; (ii) a breakdown or fault with the online bidding software or other technical services which relate to the Online Only Platform; and/or (iii) a breakdown or fault with any internet connection, computer, mobile device or system.

8. Payment for a purchased Lot

(a) If you are a successful Buyer of a Lot, you will receive by email an invoice from Replica Shoes ’s as soon as reasonably practicable after the final Lot in the relevant Online Only Auction closes. In the event of any discrepancy between the any email notifications received by you from the Online Only Platform and the invoice emailed to you by Replica Shoes ’s after the relevant Online Only Auction closes, the invoice prevails.

(i) the Hammer Price;

(ii) the Buyer’s Premium;

(iii) any ARR; and

If you have purchased a Lot for delivery outside of the UK, you acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to ascertain and pay all international duties, custom charges, taxes, charges and tariffs owed to the appropriate government entity or that otherwise need to be paid prior to shipment and/or delivery including any third party charges necessary to facilitate shipment.

(c) Replica Shoes ’s charges a Buyer’s Premium to the Buyer on the Hammer Price for each Lot sold. The amount of the Buyer’s Premium is set out in the Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction above.

(d) The Buyer of a Lot is solely responsible for the payment of any VAT (including, but not limited to, any import VAT), sales tax or value added sales tax, sales or compensating use tax or any other similar tax payable as a result of the sale of a Lot. Further information and guidance as to the application of such taxes is provided in the Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction set out above.

(e) In certain countries, local laws entitle the artists or the artist’s estate to the ARR when any Lot created by the artist is sold. If these laws apply to a Lot, the Buyer must pay Replica Shoes ’s an additional amount equal to the ARR (unless the local law requires payment to be made by the Seller). Further information and guidance on the application of the ARR is provided in the Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction set out above.

(f) Unless otherwise agreed, payment of the total amount specified on the purchase invoice for a Lot is due by the Buyer immediately following receipt of the Replica Shoes ’s invoice for the relevant purchased Lot and in any event no later than 48 hours after receipt of the Replica Shoes ’s receipt (the “Due Date”) notwithstanding any requirements for export, import or other permits for such Lot. Sotheby’s will only accept payment from the registered Bidder and we cannot change the Buyer’s name on an invoice or reissue the invoice in a name which differs to the name of the registered Bidder. If you are registered to bid as a company, your company will need to pay for any purchases in the name of the company via an accepted payment method. Partial payment of a Lot, or payment across multiple credit cards for a single lot, is not permitted. Further information regarding accepted payment methods is set out in the Guide to Buying in an Online Only Auction set out above.

(g) Title in a purchased Lot will not pass until Replica Shoes ’s has received the total amounts due for that Lot in accordance with Condition 8(b) above in cleared funds. Sotheby’s is not obliged to release a Lot to the Buyer until title in the Lot has passed and appropriate identification has been provided, and any earlier release does not affect the passing of title or the Buyer’s unconditional obligation to pay the total amounts due for that Lot in accordance with Condition 8(b) above.

(h) Risk in and responsibility for the purchased Lot will transfer to the Buyer as follows: (i) if Replica Shoes ’s dispatches the Lot to the Buyer using the method of shipping specified for the Lot in the relevant Online Only Auction, when the Lot comes into the physical possession of the Buyer or a person identified by the Buyer to take physical possession of the Lot on the Buyer’s behalf; or (ii) if collection by the Buyer in person is permitted for the relevant Online Only Auction, when the Buyer collects the Lot. As a Buyer, you acknowledge and agree that the Lot is at your risk if you choose to exercise any right you may have to cancel the contract for the purchase of the Lot (in accordance with the procedure set out at Condition 11 below) and that you should therefore ensure that you insure the Lot against loss or damage until it is returned to Replica Shoes ’s.

(i) If you fail to pay us the total amounts due for the purchased Lot(s) in accordance with Condition 8(b) above in full by the Due Date, Replica Shoes ’s will be entitled to exercise any of the remedies identified at Condition 9 below.

9. Remedies for non-payment

Without prejudice to any rights the Seller may have, if the Buyer without prior agreement fails to make payment for the Lot by the Due Date, Replica Shoes ’s may in its sole discretion (having informed the Seller) exercise one or more of the following remedies:

(a) store the Lot at its premises or elsewhere at the Buyer’s sole risk and expense;

(b) cancel the sale of the Lot;

(c) set off any amounts owed to the Buyer by a Replica Shoes ’s Company against any amounts owed to Replica Shoes ’s by the Buyer in respect of the Lot;

(d) apply any payments made to Replica Shoes ’s by the Buyer as part of the amounts due pursuant to Condition 8(b) above towards that or any other Lot purchased by the Buyer, or to any shortfall on the resale of any Lot pursuant to paragraph (h) below, or to any damages suffered by Replica Shoes ’s as a result of breach of contract by the Buyer;

(e) reject future bids from the Buyer or render such bids subject to payment of a deposit;

(f) charge interest at 6% per annum above HSBC Bank plc Base Rate from the Due Date to the date the Purchase Price and relevant Buyer’s Expenses are received in cleared funds (both before and after judgement);

(g) exercise a lien over any of the Buyer’s property which is in the possession of a Replica Shoes ’s Company. Sotheby’s shall inform the Buyer of the exercise of any such lien and within fourteen (14) days of such notice may arrange the sale of such property and apply the proceeds to the amount owed to Replica Shoes ’s;

(h) resell the Lot by auction or private sale, with estimates and reserves at Replica Shoes ’s discretion. In the event such resale is for less than the Purchase Price and Additional Buyer’s Expenses for that Lot, the Buyer will remain liable for the shortfall together with all costs incurred in such resale;

(i) commence legal proceedings to recover the Purchase Price and Additional Buyer’s Expenses for that Lot, together with interest and the costs of such proceedings on a full indemnity basis; or

(j) release the name and address of the Buyer to the Seller to enable the Seller to commence legal proceedings to recover the amounts due and legal costs. Sotheby’s will take reasonable steps to notify the Buyer prior to releasing such details to the Seller.

10. Transport and Shipping

(a) As stated in Condition 8 above, you will be emailed the Buyer’s Shipping Quote at the same time that you are emailed the Buyer’s Invoice. Once you have accepted the Buyer’s Shipping Quote and provided that the purchased Lot and the amount stated in the Buyer’s Shipping Quote have each been paid for in full by the Buyer by the payment deadline stated, Replica Shoes ’s will ship the purchased Lot to the Buyer to the address provided by you on your Verified Account, no later than thirty (30) days from conclusion of the sale contract between the Seller and the Buyer, unless otherwise explicitly agreed. Purchased Lots cannot be delivered to P.O. boxes.

(b) The Buyer is responsible for payment of the Buyer’s Shipping Costs as specified in the Buyer’s Shipping Quote. Although Replica Shoes ’s shall use reasonable efforts to take care when handling, packing and facilitating any shipment of a purchased Lot, Replica Shoes ’s is not responsible for any acts or omissions by any third party retained for these purposes including, without limitation, any packing, shipping or delivery of purchased Lots. Similarly, where Replica Shoes ’s may suggest or recommend any third party handler, packer or carrier if so requested by a Buyer, you acknowledge and agree that Replica Shoes ’s does not accept liability for their acts or omission and you agree to release Replica Shoes ’s from any such liability.

(c) Any Lot sold in an Online Only Auction may be affected by laws on exports from the country in which it is sold and the import restrictions of other countries. Many countries require a declaration of export for property leaving the country and/or an import declaration on entry of property into the country. Obtaining the necessary permits and/or licences may result in additional costs and subsequent delays. Local laws may prevent you from importing a Lot or may prevent you from selling a Lot in the country which you import into. It is the Buyer’s sole responsibility to identify and obtain any necessary export, import, firearm, endangered species or other permit for the lot. 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.

(e) Replica Shoes ’s is unable to arrange delivery to those locations which are specified as excluded zones in the shipping costs calculator which is available on the Online Only Platform (each an “Unavailable Destination”). In the event that you request delivery of a Lot to an Unavailable Destination, Replica Shoes ’s reserves the right to require you to collect the Lot from the Replica Shoes ’s storage facility at Greenford (13 Ockham Drive, Greenford, Middlesex, UB6 0FD) or to arrange delivery of the Lot by a third party carrier.

11. Cancellation of an Online Only Sale

(a) If the Buyer is an Online Consumer and the Seller is an Online Trader, the Buyer shall 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.

(b) To exercise the right to cancel the sale contract in relation to a Lot, the Online Consumer must inform Replica Shoes ’s (being the company within the Replica Shoes ’s Group and specified in the Online Sale Information which offers to sell the Lot either as agent for the Seller or as principal) of their decision to cancel the sale contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or email). 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 shall not process the reimbursement unless and until the Lot is returned to Replica Shoes ’s or you have supplied Replica Shoes ’s with evidence of having returned the Lot to us.

(d) Replica Shoes ’s will make the reimbursement to the Online Consumer using the same method of payment as the Online Consumer used for the initial transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise. Replica Shoes ’s will not charge the Online Consumer any fee in connection with processing the reimbursement.

(e) Sotheby’s shall not reimburse the Online Consumer by the amount of any supplementary costs which arise if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by Replica Shoes ’s or any import duties we incur as a result of you returning the Lot to us. 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

(a) If the Buyer is an Online Consumer and the Seller is an Online Consumer, the Buyer shall not have the right to cancel the sale contract (in accordance with Condition 11 above). However, the Buyer shall be entitled to cancel the contract for any delivery services which Replica Shoes ’s agrees to provide to the Buyer in connection with your purchase of the Lot during the Services Online Sale Cancellation Period without giving any reason.

(b) As a Buyer in an Online Auction, you request Replica Shoes ’s immediately to begin performance of the delivery services during the Online Services Cancellation Period. If you subsequently decide to exercise your right to cancel the provision of services (in accordance with Condition 12(a) above) during the Online Services Cancellation Period, you shall pay to Replica Shoes ’s an amount which is in proportion to the value of the services that have been performed by the time you exercise your cancellation right. 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. Replica Shoes ’s will make the reimbursement to the Online Consumer using the same method of payment as the Online Consumer used for the initial transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise.

SOTHEBY’S AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEE FOR BOOKS

If Replica Shoes ’s sells an item which subsequently is shown to be a “counterfeit”, or which in Replica Shoes ’s opinion is materially defective in text or illustration, 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).

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

(i) the catalogue description was in accordance with the generally accepted opinion(s) of scholar(s) and expert(s) 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) the item complained of comprises an atlas, an extra-illustrated book, a volume with fore-edged paintings, a periodical publication or a print or drawing; or

(iv) in the case of a manuscript, the lot was not described in the catalogue as complete; or

(v) the defect complained of was mentioned in the catalogue or the item complained of was sold un-named in a lot; or

(vi) the defect complained of is other than in text or illustration. (For example, without limitation, a sale will not be set aside on account of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal wormholes, lack of blank leaves or other conditions not affecting the completeness of the text or illustration, lack of list of plates, inserted advertisements, cancels or any subsequently published volume, supplement, appendix or plates or error in the enumeration of the plates; or

(vii) 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 (in respect of counterfeit items) or twenty one (21) days (for items materially defective in text or illustration) 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 (for counterfeit items) or twenty one (21) days (in respect of items materially defective in text or illustration) with the reasons why the Buyer considers the item to be counterfeit or materially defective in text or illustration, specifying the lot number, and the date of the auction at which it was purchased; 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.
