Our Role

68. Where lots have been consigned to us for sale, Bid for Wine acts solely for and in the interests of the Seller. We do not act for Bidders and do not give advice to Buyers or Bidders.

Bidders may wish to take independent advice on Lots and their value before bidding on them. www.wine-searcher.com can assist Buyers in this respect.

69. Where lots have been consigned to us for sale, the Seller has authorised Bid for Wine to sell their Lot(s) as an agent on behalf of the Seller and Bid for Wine acts only as agent for the Seller. Any statement or representation we make in respect of a Lot is made on the Seller's behalf and any contract for sale is between the Buyer and the Seller and not with us.

70. Bid for Wine does not owe or undertake or agree to any duty or responsibility to you in contract or tort (whether direct, collateral, express, implied or otherwise). If you successfully bid for a lot and buy it or buy a lot via the ‘Buy Now' option, at that stage we do enter into an agreement with you as the Buyer.

Descriptions of lots

71. Each lot is sold by its respective Seller to the Buyer of the Lot as corresponding only with the title of the auction Lot. The remainder of the auction description (given on behalf of the Seller) may contain additional information about the Lot and is not part of the contractual description in accordance with which the Lot is sold by the Seller. Bid for Wine reserves the right to use stock photographs unless these would be unrepresentative of the condition of the lot(s) offered for sale.

The Seller's responsibility to you

72. Save as described in Clause 71, the Seller does not make or agree to make any representation of fact or contractual promise, guarantee or warranty and undertakes no obligation or duty, whether in contract or in tort (other than to the eventual Buyer as set out herein), in respect of the accuracy or completeness of any statement or representation made by him or on his behalf which is in any way descriptive of any lot or as to the anticipated or likely selling price of any lot. Other than as set out herein, no statement or representation in any way descriptive of a lot is incorporated into any Contract for Sale between a Seller and a Buyer.

Bid for Wine's responsibility to Buyers

73. Save as described in Clause 71, Bid for Wine does not make or agree to make any representation of fact, and undertakes no obligation or duty (however arising) in respect of the accuracy or completeness of any statement, representation or description made by Bid for Wine or on Bid for Wine's behalf which is in any way descriptive of any lot offered on the site. No statement or representation by Bid for Wine or our behalf in any way descriptive of any lot is incorporated into this agreement.

Alterations

74. Bid for Wine may, at its sole discretion, amend lot descriptions relating to lots sold by consignment before or during a sale. Amendments will be flagged within the description of a lot or auction. Wherever possible we will notify the current high bidder(s) of the changes.

You will be liable to pay the price bid or the buy now price plus any VAT and duty payable if you require the wine to be removed from Bond. Bid For Wine will collect the amounts owing under this contract on behalf of the seller.

At the same time, a separate contract is also entered into between Bid for Wine and the Buyer and you agree to pay Bid for Wine any buyer's premium and VAT advertised as applicable to the lot.

The Seller's and/or Bid for Wine's liability

76. Other than any liability of the Seller to the Buyer of a Lot under the Contract for Sale, and save as described in Clause 71, neither we nor the Seller are liable for any error, misdescription or omission in any description of a lot whether contained within the auction description or otherwise, whether given orally or in writing and whether given before or during the running of the auction.

77. Under all circumstances neither we nor the Seller will be liable for any loss of business, profits, revenue or income, or for loss of reputation, or for disruption to business or wasted time on the part of management or staff, or for indirect losses or consequential damages of any kind, irrespective in any case of the nature, volume or source of the loss or damage alleged to be suffered, and irrespective of whether the said loss or damage is caused by or claimed in respect of any negligence, other tort, breach of contract (if any) or statutory duty, restitutionary claim or otherwise.
