Terms and Conditions of Sale – Rossini Auction House

The sale will be conducted in cash and in Euros. The buyer’s premium is 30.6% incl. VAT, which includes the 3.6% fee charged by Drouot Online.

1. GUARANTEES

Attributions, including period indications, are established based on the current scientific and artistic knowledge at the time of the sale. These attributions are guaranteed for a period of five (5) years from the date of the auction. The statute of limitations for any liability claim against ROSSINI Auction House is five (5) years.

The catalogue order will be followed. Rossini will provide, upon request, photographs and detailed information to help potential buyers assess the condition of the items offered. No claims will be accepted once the lot has been adjudicated.

Reproductions of works in the catalogue are as faithful as possible; however, variations in color or tone may occur. The dimensions are provided for information purposes only.

ROSSINI Auction House is covered by professional liability and financial guarantee insurance in accordance with the law. All our experts are also covered by professional liability insurance.

2. BIDDING

Absentee bids: (except Online sales) If you wish to leave an absentee bid in writing, please use the designated form at the end of the catalogue. It must reach us at least 24 hours before the sale, along with your banking details.

3. PAYMENT DEFAULT

In the event of a default or delay in payment exceeding 30 days, a late penalty of 11.37% incl. VAT of the total amount will be applied.

Rossini reserves the right to take any recovery actions, including registration in the TEMIS restricted access file, and to seek damages covering, at a minimum, the seller’s and buyer’s fees that would have been collected had the sale been completed successfully.

4. RE-SALE (FOLLE ENCHÈRE)

By derogation from Article 14 of the Law of July 10, 2000:

"In the event of non-payment by the buyer, after a formal notice has remained unanswered, the lot may be re-offered for sale at the request of the seller by means of a new auction (folle enchère) at the expense of the defaulting bidder. If the seller does not make such a request within

two months

from the adjudication, the sale will be automatically cancelled, without prejudice to any damages owed by the defaulting bidder."

5. COLLECTION OF PURCHASES

Buyers are advised to collect their lots only by appointment as soon as possible to avoid storage fees, which are the sole responsibility of the buyer.

Storage does not imply any liability on the part of Rossini Auction House or the expert.

For all buyers (on-site, online, or absentee bidders), storage fees will apply starting from the 21st calendar day after the sale (excluding weekends and public holidays):

1. €5 excl. VAT per day per item
2. €10 excl. VAT per day per piece of furniture

If payment is made by cheque or bank transfer, delivery may be delayed until the funds are cleared.

Please note that certain bulky or oversized lots can only be collected from our logistics center located in Montargis, by appointment.

For card payments, delivery may be postponed until the withdrawal period has expired.

From the moment of adjudication, the item is under the entire responsibility of the buyer. It is the buyer's responsibility to insure their purchases. Rossini Auction House declines any liability for damage or loss incurred after the auction.

In the case of sales held at the Hôtel Drouot, storage fees are borne by the buyer.

6. SHIPPING OF LOTS

Transportation is entirely the buyer’s responsibility.

The buyer is responsible for choosing and organizing shipment.

Rossini Auction House may provide, for convenience only and with no contractual obligation, contact details of transport companies.

No lot will be handed over to a shipper until the purchase has been paid in full.

The issuance of an export license may take 4 to 5 months.

7. ONLINE SALES

Online sales are subject to the same terms and conditions as in-room auctions. However, Rossini Auction House cannot be held responsible for any technical disruptions, connection issues, system failures, or platform outages that may affect the transmission or execution of bids via online platforms such as Drouot Online or Interencheres Live.

Buyers acknowledge that participation in an online auction does not guarantee the successful placement or receipt of their bids, and that technical problems may occur independently of Rossini's control.

8.EXPORTATION

VAT-exempt invoices (for intra-community deliveries or exports outside the EU) will only be issued upon receipt of valid export documentation. Otherwise, the invoice will be issued inclusive of VAT. The buyer is solely responsible for completing the export formalities within the legal time limits.
