ABSENTEE BIDDING
Please bid on my behalf at your auction on Sept 17, 2005 for the
following Lot(s) up to the prices mentioned below. These bids are to
be executed as cheaply as is permitted by other bids or reserves.
PAAM assumes no responsibility for errors or failure to execute these
bids. By leaving these bids, I indicate my acceptance of and
compliance with the PAAM Conditions of Sale as printed in the Auction
Catalog. I will be responsible for the purchase price, buyer’s premium,
any applicable state tax and shipping costs on each lot I bid for
successfully.
PAAM packs and handles purchased lots solely as a courtesy to
clients. Charges for this service include labor, materials and postage
or freighting and insurance. PAAM is not responsible for the insurance
on a lot once the title has been transferred. In no event will PAAM be
liable for damage to glass or frames, regardless of cause. PAAM
may refuse to execute packing and shipping instructions on items
that in their judgment are too fragile or too valuable for delivery by
common carrier. Shipments will be made in order of payments
received.
I understand that the bidding on each lot will open at half of the low
estimate. Accepted bidding increments for absentee bids are as
follows: $500-1,000, $50; $1,000-3,000, $100; $3,000-5,000, $250;
over $5,000, $500.
Please note that the bidding may fall against you in the audience
when there is active competition for a lot. For instance, if you have
left a bid of $1,000 and there is someone in the audience bidding for
the same lot, the auctioneer may take a $950 bid from the person
representing you. The next bid -- $1,000 -- will fall to the person in the
audience. To ensure that you do not lose in this case, you may
authorize us to increase your bid by one increment beyond your
maximum bid to try to break this “tie” with the audience by checking
the appropriate column on this bid form (PLUS ONE).
