Terms & Conditions
TERMS & CONDITIONS The Auction: The auction is open to the public and there is no admission fee or obligation to bid. The auctioneer introduces the objects for sale - known as "lots" - in numerical order as listed in the catalog. Treadway Toomey Auctions acts as agent on behalf of the seller and does not permit the seller to bid on his or her own property. Estimates/Reserves: The price estimates that appear at the end of each lot description are simply approximations, reflecting the range in which the price may fall. Some items are subject to a reserve, the price below which an item cannot be sold. In most instances, the reserve is less than the low estimate. Bidding in Person: If you would like to bid in person, you must register for a "paddle" upon arriving at the auction. The paddle is numbered so as to identify you to the auctioneer. To register, you will need a form of photo identification, such as a driver's license, passport or government-issued identification. You will also will be asked for your address, telephone number, and e-mail address. If you are bidding for someone else, you will have to provide authorization from that person in order to bid on their behalf. Issuance of a bid paddle is in the auction house's sole discretion. All lots sold will be invoiced to the name and address in which the paddle has been registered. Absentee Bids, Telephone Bids and Internet Bids: If you are not able to attend the auction in person, you may bid over the telephone during the sale, leave bids ("absentee bids"), which will be executed for you by one of our representatives, making every effort to purchase the item for as little as possible without exceeding your limit, or bid via the Internet (see our website for instructions on how to bid at our auction via the Internet). PLEASE NOTE: Treadway Toomey Auctions offers the absentee bid service as a convenience to its clients who are unable to attend the auction and is not responsible for error or failure to execute bids. Should you wish to participate by telephone or by leaving absentee bids, you must complete and submit an Absentee/Telephone Bid Form, which is included in the catalog and also is available on the auction website and at the auction house, or contact us as indicated below. Telephone Bidding: Please make arrangements for telephone bidding as early as possible, as there are a limited number of telephone lines available. Please make arrangements for telephone bidding no later than 5:00 p.m. (CDT) on the day prior to a sale. Please note that telephone bidding is generally reserved for items estimated at greater than $500. Absentee Bidding: Please provide absentee bids as early as possible. It is important that these bids are provided in the correct increments (see chart below). Should identical absentee bids come in, the first bid received will be honored. Absentee bidders have the same chance of being successful as a telephone or in-person bidder; the successful bidder is determined at the auctioneer's discretion. It is important that absentee bids are submitted prior to 5:00 p.m. (CDT) on the day prior to a sale, as execution cannot be guaranteed after that time. Please call us If you wish to confirm that your bids have been received.
