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.
