BIDDER INFO

Bidders are advised to carefully read through the Conditions of Business prior to participating in the auction. We invite you to contact us should you have any questions or view our FAQ page for further details.

Please note the name or company you use to register under will be noted on the final invoice if you are successful, and we can only receive payment from the exact same name or company. Please be aware that invoicing details cannot be altered once the lot is won.

Bidders will only be able to view their own bid amounts and can place as many bids as desired while the auction is open. A 90-second auto-extension will be triggered if a client is ranked in the top three bids during the last 90 seconds of the auction.

PAYMENT OPTIONS

Following a successful purchase at auction, bidders are advised that payment should be initiated by 5 p.m. the next working day following the close of the auction. Payment is to be completed via wire transfer. The successful bidder will receive a copy of their Bill of Sale and instructions to remit payment via email. 

ADDITIONAL FEES TO BE CONSIDERED

Buyer’s Premium
For Sealed lots, there is no buyer's premium and the final sale price will remain confidential. 

Taxes/Import Duties
Buyers are responsible for any applicable duty and/or local taxes on any lots purchased. International bidders are advised to inform themselves of potential import duties that would be due upon the arrival of the lot at its final destination. You are advised to speak with your local representatives in advance of the sale to understand what these costs may be. Please note for any car that has entered the sale on a temporary import bond, an administrative fee will be charged to the buyer to oversee the customs entry formalities. 

LOT REMOVAL/SHIPPING

Please note that the lots offered within this sale are not all located in the same location and therefore some lots may have storage fees applicable to the buyers of each respective lot. Please see each lot page for further information on lot location following the end of the auction. Please contact an RM Sotheby's representative should you have further questions. 

Buyers are required to make immediate arrangements for the collection and transport of purchased lots. It is the buyer’s responsibility to make their own arrangements, but RMS is pleased to offer our clients the services of the following companies for motor car shipping:
