ABSENTEE BIDS: If you are unable to attend the Women for Women International UK Gala 2013 and wish to place bids you may give Women for Women International (UK) instructions to bid on your behalf. We will then try to purchase the lot(s) of your choice at the lowest price possible and to a maximum price as indicated by you. Please note that although Women for Women International (UK) will make every effort, we will not be responsible for any errors or failure to execute bids. Absentee bids must be received in writing. ABSENTEE BID FORM: Be sure to record accurately the lot numbers and descriptions and the maximum price you are willing to pay for each lot - this should be the amount to which you would bid if you were attending the sale yourself. Unlimited bids will not be accepted. In the event of identical bids, the earliest received will take precedence. AUCTION RULES: The person offering the highest qualifying bid prior to the close of bidding will be deemed the winner. Late bids will not be accepted. The decision of the person closing the auction is final. On the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the highest bidder shall be deemed to have purchased the offered lot subject to all of the conditions set forth herein and thereupon (a) assumes the risk and responsibility thereof, (b) will sign a confirmation of purchase thereof and (c) will pay the full purchase price. Women for Women International (UK) will not release a lot to a successful buyer until payment of the total amount due has been received by Women for Women International (UK) in cleared funds. SUCCESSFUL BIDS: Successful bidders will receive an invoice from Women for Women International (UK) detailing their purchases and giving instructions for payment and clearance of goods. Women for Women International (UK) will issue invoices to all contributors to the Gala 2013 Pledge.
