Buying at Auction (cont.)

Winning Bid

Should you be recognized

by the auctioneer as the winning bidder on

a particular lot, you may at your discretion

proceed to the cashiers desk to make arrangements for

payment, and pick-up/delivery of your purchase.

Manor & Street levys no additional surcharge

on items purchased at our regularly scheduled

Habitat consignment sales. For purchases made

at one of our specialty (automobile, equine, antique, real estate,

decorative art, historical furnishings, etc.), or commercial sales, Manor

& Street assesses the customary per lot buyer's premium

of 10% on purchases up to and including

$50,000, and 5% on any amount in

excess (subject to change at the discretion

of Manor & Street). The buyer's premium is

calculated in relation to the final, or ÒhammerÓ

price called by the auctioneer. For example, if the

hammer price of an object is $1,000, another $100 or 10% would be added to the

purchase price as the buyer's premium.The buyer's premium

is much like the service fee charged by

stock brokerage firms when they negotiate

a trade for a client. It covers the additional cost

of doing business over and above the actual stock

transaction. Sales tax, where applicable, will

be charged on the full amount of purchases made

through Manor & Street. Payment is due

in full within twenty-four (24) hours of

purchase on auction items priced up

to and including $25,000, and within three (3) working

days for all other amounts.You may

pay for purchases with cash, check, money

order, or wire transfer. If you pay by check,

your purchase may be held until the check

has cleared. We also accept Visa

and Mastercard for purchases up to and

including $25,000 total per sale.

Pick-up and Delivery

Unless otherwise stated,

all Manor & Street auction purchases

must be removed from the auction

site within twenty-four (24) hours

of purchase. Should an item need to

be held for a longer period of time, Manor

& Street will arrange for storage, and append any

incurred charges to the final invoice.
