25 The lots brought in remain the property of the consignor until the bid is accepted. Once the hammer falls at the auction, the item becomes the property of the buyer, subject to full payment of the purchase price. Leitz Photographica Auction cannot accept any liability for any damage that may occur during delivery, intermediate storage or viewing, unless the damage is due to intentional or grossly negligent behaviour on the part of Leitz Photographica Auction, such liability is therefor excluded. To avoid any such problems, lots brought in will be insured for 1.5% (incl. VAT) of the lower estimate. To theextent permitted by law, Leitz Photographica Auction's liability is limited to the lower estimate.26 Unless otherwise agreed, floor bidders may pay the purchase price including all customary local taxes and pick up the lot purchased at the auction from the second working day following the end of the auction. Invoices for lots purchased in writing, online or by telephone will be sent to the respective highest bidder in the working days following the end of the auction. Invoices must be paid net without deduction within 8 days of receipt. When paying by bank transfer, the purchase price including any taxes, fees and costs is due immediately and the bank charges must be borne by the buyer. In the event of default in payment, default interest in the amount of 5% above the base interest rateof the Austrian National Bank shall be due. For all payment methods, the buyer shall bear any expenses. Costs for packaging, transport and transport insurance are not included and will be charged separately. However, any storage and packaging for and from handover to the transport company is generally at the risk of the buyer. For auctioned lots that have not been picked up at the place of performance after 30 working days from the invoice date, the auction house is entitled to charge a storage fee of %u20ac1-10 (depending on size and value) per day and item. In any case, delivery of the auctioned lot is dependent on full payment being received by Leitz Photographica Auction.27 In the event the buyer refuses to take over the purchased item or is in default of payment, the buyer shall be liable for all resulting damages and consequential costs. In such cases, Leitz Photographica Auction may either demand fulfilment of the purchase contract or compensation for non-fulfilment of the purchase contract in accordance with the statutory provisions. The auctioned lot may be auctioned again at the expense of the buyer. In this case, the buyer is liable for a lower price and has no claim to any surplus proceeds that possibly have been achieved.28 In principle, auctioned lots will not be taken back. However, if there are obvious misdescriptions, except for technical defects as described in point 3), a complaint must be made immediately after the auction, either orally or in writing within 14 days at the latest. If the complaint is recognised as valid, the buyer has the right to a refund of the purchase price and the premium if the lot is returned at the same time. Further claims cannot be asserted and are excluded.29 Liability: Leitz Photographica Auction is not liable for damages caused by force majeure, technical failures or other unforeseen events, unless they are the result of gross negligence or intentional misconduct on the part of Leitz Photographica Auction.30 Upon the transfer of risk to the buyer, the buyer irrevocably releases Leitz Photographica Auction and any other Leica Group company, their respective officers, employees, agents, warehouses and other contractors and the seller irrevocably from all claims, causes of action, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees) for the loss of or damage to the purchased lot.31 Data protection: Leitz Photographica Auction saves and processes the personal data of bidders and may pass this on to another Leica Group company to use as described in and in accordance with our data protection policy, which is published on our website or available by email upon request.32 These auction conditions for bidders contain all agreements between the bidder and Leitz Photographica Auction. Verbal side agreements are invalid. All changes must be made in writing to be effective.33 The same conditions apply to online auctions as to on-site auctions, insofar as they are organized by Leitz Photographica Auction. However, Leitz Photographica Auction is neither be responsible nor liable for technical faults that could prevent a bid from being placed.34 Should any individual provisions of these auction conditions be invalid, in whole or in part, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.
