Auctioneer Acting as Agent

Morgan O’Driscoll acts in every respect only as agents for the seller of each lot.

Acceptance of Bids

All bids shall be treated as offers made upon the conditions of sale. Confirming your bid is a commitment to buy and is legally binding.
The highest approved bidder shall be the Purchaser, and if any dispute arises as to a bid, the lot in dispute may be put up again at the last undisputed bid and any dispute whatever in respect of the property or the sale and delivery of the goods shall be determined by the auctioneer, or in his absence by the Clerk of the sale.
The bidding shall be regulated by the auctioneer as the sale proceeds, and no bidding shall be retracted.
The auctioneer has the right to refuse any bid at his absolute discretion.
The auctioneer shall be at liberty to group together any lots, or to divide any lots during the progress of the sale, and in the case of lots upon which there is a reserve, the auctioneer or his clerk shall have the right to bid on behalf of the vendor, or to withdraw the goods from sale.
The auctioneer accepts no liability for any failure or delay on placing bids or any errors contained in bids placed via the online bidding service. By choosing to use our online bidding service you agree that you are doing so entirely at your own risk.
The auctioneer accept no liability for delay, disruption or interruption of auction activity in the event of, but not limited to, technical problems, power cuts, electrical failure, fire, flooding and other acts of human error.
The auctioneer reserves the right to modify the Date or Start Time of Beginning of Auction at its discretion

Viewing of Lots

All lots are available to view in our Skibbereen office prior to Online auctions on designated times or by appointment.

The Buyer

Every buyer on being declared as such by the auctioneer shall if required hand in his name and full address and if requested his bank or other suitable references.
The purchase price payable by the buyer shall be the aggregate of the price at which the lot is knocked down and a premium of 20% of the final bid together with Value Added Tax on the premium at the prevailing rate. For example on a hammer price of €1,000, the Buyer's Premium amounts to €200 and the VAT on the Buyer's Premium amounts to €46, giving a total amount due of €1,246.

Packing and Shipping

The buyer shall be responsible for all packing and shipping costs for the purchased property. Purchased Lots may be packed and handled by the Auctioneer, its employees, servants or agents. Where this is done it is undertaken solely as a courtesy to buyers and at the discretion of the Auctioneer. Under no circumstances shall the Auctioneer, its employees, servants or agents be liable for damage of any kind and howsoever caused to glass or frames nor shall the Auctioneer be liable for the errors or omissions of, or for any damage caused by, any packers or shippers which the Auctioneer has recommended.
