NO RESERVE - A Bi-Colour Gold and Amethyst Ring

The time at which bidding shall close for each Lot (the “Lot Closing”) will be indicated in respect of each Lot. We will endeavour to email you warning that Lot Closing is due on a Lot on which you have been outbid but you are advised to monitor Lots in which you are interested throughout the Sale. All bidding increments will be in the currency of the Online Sale only and payment for any Lot that is the subject of a successful bid must also be made in the currency of the Online Sale. Any currency conversion tool is provided on the Online Bidding screen for your convenience only. Please note that, unless otherwise stated in a Notice to Bidders in respect of a particular Online Sale, each Online Sale is conducted, and all Bids and payments shall be made, in pounds sterling.

During an Online Sale, you can bid for a Lot by clicking the ‘Bid’ button. Each bid shall be final and binding as soon as you click the ‘Bid’ button. You agree that each Bid submitted is irrevocable and cannot be amended or corrected even if submitted in error and notified to us.

You accept full liability for all Bids submitted via your Online Bidding account (including the liability to pay in full and on time for any Lot that is the subject of a successful Bid submitted from your account). We will endeavour to email you in the event you are outbid or your Bid is below another Bid already accepted, but you are advised to monitor your bids throughout the Sale. In the event of a tie between Bids placed, the earlier Bid received shall be accepted. Unless cancelled by us pursuant to these terms and conditions, the highest Bid submitted by Lot Closing shall be the successful Bid, thereby resulting in a binding contract for sale between you and the Seller on the terms set out in the Contract for Sale, and you will be sent an invoice by Mayfair Auctions by email. We will not notify you about Lots for which you were not the successful Bidder. In the event of any discrepancy or dispute about bidding or the sale of any Lot, the Sale record maintained by Mayfair Auctions shall be final and binding. Mayfair Auctions reserves the right to postpone completion of the sale of any Lot at our discretion while we complete our registration and identification enquiries, and to cancel the sale of any Lot if you are in breach of your warranties as Buyer, or if we consider that such sale would be unlawful or otherwise cause liabilities for the Seller or Mayfair Auctions
or be detrimental to Mayfair Auctions’ reputation. Mayfair Auctions also reserves the right to withdraw its permission for you to use Online Bidding, terminate an Online Bidding account, reject any Bids made or restart bidding afresh for a Lot, for any reason at any time prior to, during or after a Sale.

Lots offered for sale will vary in terms of age, type and condition, with potential faults, imperfections and repairs, and are offered for Sale “AS IS” in their condition as at the time of sale.

7.1 If you are a Consumer in accordance with the EU Consumer Rights Directive and habitually reside in a Member State of the EU, and the Seller is not a Consumer (as identified in the relevant Catalogue), you have the right to cancel the Contract for Sale relating to the purchase of a Lot, without giving any reason. Sellers who are Consumers will be identified as private individuals in the Entry for the Lot. The cancellation period will expire 14 calendar days from the day after the date on which you, or a third party (other than the carrier and indicated by
you) acquires, physical possession of the Lot.
7.2 To exercise the right to cancel you must inform Mayfair Auctions, who are offering to sell the Lot either as agent for the Seller or as the owner of the Lot, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. by post or e-mail).
7.3 You may use the model cancellation form set out in the Appendix hereto, but this is not obligatory. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired. Effects of cancellation
7.4 If you cancel the Contract for Sale, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery but not any extra costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us; or any import duties we incur as a result of you returning the Lot to us.
7.5 We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any Lots supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
7.6 We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than: 14 calendar days after the day we receive back from you any Lot supplied; or (if earlier) 14 calendar days after the day you provide evidence that you have returned the Lot.
7.7 We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise (but reimbursement will always be to an account solely in your name); in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement. We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the Lot back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the Lot, whichever is earliest.
7.8 You shall send back the Lot or return it over to us at such address as we may specify for the purpose, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 calendar days from the day after on which you communicate your cancellation to us.
7.9 The deadline is met if you send back the Lot before the period of 14 calendar days has expired.
7.10 You will have to bear the direct costs of returning the Lot. If we arranged for the Lot to be delivered we estimate that the cost returning the Lot by the same means is likely to be similar to the cost of delivery, but it is not possible for us to be more accurate as to this cost due to the many variables involved in our worldwide business model and the means by which a return might be made.
7.11 You are only liable for any diminished value of the Lot resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Lot.Right to cancel the contract for services.

7.13 Mayfair Auctions’ services consist of: the opportunity to participate in the Online Sale, to be introduced to Lots for sale which may be of interest, to view images and other information about such Lots, and any delivery service for any Lot which you purchase and which is to be delivered pursuant to an agreement with Mayfair Auctions).
7.14 You have the right to cancel the contract for this service within 14 calendar days from the day of conclusion of the contract, without giving any reason.
7.15 The cancellation period will expire after 14 calendar days from the day of the conclusion of the contract.
7.16 To exercise the right to cancel you must inform Mayfair Auctions of your decision to cancel the service by a clear statement (e.g. by post or e-mail). You may use the model cancellation form set out in the Appendix below, but it is not obligatory.

7.18 You request Mayfair Auctions immediately to begin the performance of its services (including any agreed arrangements for delivery) during the cancellation period described above. If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you any payments received from you in respect of the service. However, since you have requested us to begin the performance of services during the cancellation period, you shall pay us an amount which is in proportion to what has been performed until you have communicated us your cancellation from this contract, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.

8. GOVERNING LAW
8.1 All transactions to which the Contract for Sale applies and all connected matters will be governed by and construed in accordance with English law and the Seller and you each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, save that the Seller may bring proceedings against you in any other court of competent jurisdiction to the extent permitted by the laws of the relevant jurisdiction.
