Ordres d’achat :
Un enchérisseur ne pouvant assister à la vente devra remplir le formulaire d’ordre d’achat inclus dans ce catalogue et le signer.
ADER agira pour le compte de l’enchérisseur, selon les instructions contenues dans le formulaire d’ordre d’achat, ceci afin d’essayer d’acheter le ou les lots au prix le plus bas possible et ne dépassant, en aucun cas, le montant maximum indiqué par l’enchérisseur.
Ledit formulaire devra être adressé et reçu à l’étude au plus tard 24 heures avant le début de la vente.
Les ordres d’achat ou les enchères par téléphone sont une facilité pour les clients. ADER n’est pas responsable pour avoir manqué d’exécuter un ordre par erreur ou pour toute autre cause. Merci de vérifier après envoi que votre ordre d’achat a été dûment enregistré.
ADER se réserve le droit de ne pas enregistrer l’ordre d’achat s’il n’est pas complet ou si elle considère que le client n’apporte pas toutes les garanties pour la sécurité des transactions ; sans recours possible.
Pour garantir la bonne volonté de l’acheteur, une consignation pourra être demandée avant la vente qui ne sera validée qu’en cas d’adjudication.
Drouot Live et Interenchères étant des services indépendant, nous déclinons toute responsabilité en cas de dysfonctionnement. Le coût supplémentaire lié aux achats sur internet est détaillé sur chacun des sites et dans nos conditions de vente.
Transports des lots / Exportation :

L’étude est ouverte du lundi au vendredi, de 9 h à 18 h.

Les acheteurs sont invités à organiser eux-mêmes le transport de leurs achats si ces conditions ne leur conviennent pas. L’étude ADER ne fait pas les envois de bijoux, les acheteurs sont invités à organiser eux-mêmes le transport de leurs achats.
Défaut de paiement :
À défaut de paiement par l’adjudicataire de la totalité des sommes dues, dans le mois qui suit la vente, et après une seule mise en demeure restée infructueuse, ADER entamera une procédure de recouvrement. L’acheteur sera susceptible d’inscription au Fichier des restrictions d’accès aux ventes aux enchères (Fichier TEMIS – www.temis.auction) mis en œuvre par la société Commissaires-Priseurs Multimédia (CPM – 37 rue de Châteaudun 75009 Paris) et l’ensemble des dépends restera à sa charge.
