Storage conditions

These Storage Conditions set out the basis on which Christie’s stores property. Any amendment to, or waiver of, these Storage Conditions is effective only if agreed between you and Christie’s in writing. For sale property, the terms of the applicable seller’s agreement shall prevail if inconsistent with these Storage Conditions.

You will find a glossary at the end of these Storage Conditions explaining the meaning of the words highlighted in bold.

1. Free Storage Period

Christie’s storage services are provided as a convenience to Christie’s clients and are not an alternative to long-term fine art/collectible storage. Therefore, property must be collected no later than thirty (30) days following:

1.1. Purchased property (auction) - the date of the auction;

1.2. Unsold sale property (auction) – the expiry of the after-sale period (or, if there is no after-sale period, the date of the auction);

1.3. Other property (including, but not limited to, property with Christie’s for the purposes of valuation or expertise) - the date that Christie’s received possession or control of the property.

1.4. Unsold sale property (private sale) - the expiry of the private sale seller’s agreement; and

1.5. Other property (including, but not limited to, property with Christie’s for the purposes of valuation or expertise) - the date that Christie’s took possession or control of the property.

If any property has not been not collected by the end of the free storage period, then storage fees may become due and payable as set out in paragraph 3 below. Paying storage fees does not override your obligation to collect the property.

2. Location and access

2.1. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Christie’s will decide in its sole discretion where any property is to be stored.

2.2. Access to property while in storage at a storage facility will only be provided on an exceptional basis (to be determined in Christie’s sole discretion). If you need access to your property, please contact Christie’s Post-Sale Service at 212-636-2650 or PostsaleUS@christies.com.

3. Storage Fees and Costs

3.1. Christie’s will be entitled to charge Storage Fees upon expiry of the applicable free storage period. We will notify you to the address set out on your invoice that the storage fees will be charged. Christie’s storage fees and details of how to pay are available on Christie’s website at www.christies.com/storagefees. All storage fees are exclusive of applicable sales and use taxes, which will be added to your invoice at the appropriate rate. Invoices for storage fees are payable in the invoiced currency on the due date set out on the invoice (the “due date”). Without limiting the foregoing, all purchased property (bought through either auction or private sale and located in New York) will be subject to New York City sales tax when such purchased property has not been collected one hundred eighty (180) days after payment has been made.

3.2. Christie’s may seven (7) days after the date of the auction in addition to any other rights or remedies it has by law:

(i) exercise all rights and remedies of a person holding security over your property, whether by way of pledge, security interest or otherwise as permitted by the law of the place where such property is located. You will be deemed to have granted such security to Christie’s and Christie’s may retain such property as collateral security for your obligations to Christie’s;

(ii) sell your property in any way Christie’s feels, in its sole discretion, to be reasonably appropriate and pay you the balance of the price realized after deduction of all amounts due to Christie’s;

(iii) transfer the property to a third-party storage facility and you will be subject to the third-party storage facility’s standard terms and directly responsible to pay the third-party storage facility’s fees and costs; and

(iv) take any other action Christie’s sees necessary or appropriate.

3.3. Nothing in this paragraph 3 shall act to limit any rights Christie’s may have in any seller’s agreement or conditions of sale applicable to the property.

4. Collection

4.1. You will provide Christie’s with at least 48 hours’ prior written notice of your intention to collect any property. Collection may only be made during working hours. Information on collecting property (including working hours) is set out on an information sheet which you can obtain from the bidder registration staff, Christie’s cashiers at (212) 636-2495 or Christie’s website at www.christies.com/storage.

(ii) in the case of all other property, in the absence of an agreed (in writing) loss, damage and liability value, Christie’s will not pay more than its reasonable estimate of the auction value of the property as determined in Christie’s sole discretion;

(iii) Christie’s will not be liable for any physical loss or damage to the property caused by climatic or atmospheric conditions beyond Christie’s control as long as Christie’s takes reasonable care and skill in handling the property to reduce the risk of physical loss or damage; and

(iv) by certain other conditions which are available from Christie’s or on Christie’s website at www.christies.com/liabilityterms.

5.3. Unless otherwise agreed in writing with you, Christie’s responsibility for physical loss or damage to the property shall end on the earlier of collection of the property or the expiry of the applicable free storage period. You agree that you will be liable for any physical loss or damage to the property once Christie’s responsibility has ended and:

(i) you hereby release Christie’s, its officers, employees, agents, contractors and insurers, from and against any and all liability for physical loss of or damage to the property;

(ii) you agree to pay Christie’s, any Christie's group company, applicable employee or agents (a) the full amount of any claim made against Christie’s or them for physical loss of, or damage to any property; and (b) any costs and expenses Christie’s has to pay as a result of a claim;

(iii) you agree that this paragraph 5.3 will apply no matter what caused the physical loss or damage to the property (including Christie’s negligence) and even if Christie’s pays compensation without its legal liability having first been proved; and

(iv) you agree to arrange appropriate insurance for all property including for the risk of physical loss or damage caused by negligence and will (A) notify your insurance carrier/company of this and (B) arrange for them to waive any right of subrogation against Christie’s, its officers, employees, agents, contractors and insurers with respect to any loss of or damage to the property while it remains in Christie’s or its agent’s care, custody and control.

5.4. Even if, despite the terms of paragraph 5.3 above, Christie’s is found to be liable for any physical loss of, or damage, to any property, Christie’s will not have to pay more in total than $75,000 or its reasonable estimate of the auction value of the property, whichever is lower.

5.5. Christie’s may, at its option, agree to continue to accept responsibility for physical loss or damage to the property after the end of the applicable free storage period, subject to payment of loss damage liability fees and certain other conditions.

6.2. If paragraph 6.1 applies and Christie’s considers, in its sole discretion, that the property is not suitable for sale, Christie’s may at its option:

(i) ship the property back to you at your cost to the last known address Christie’s has for you on its records. Christie’s shall have no obligation to verify that such address is correct. Such shipment shall be entirely at your own risk and Christie’s shall have no liability to you under any circumstances; or

(ii) dispose of the property as Christie’s sees fit, subject to applicable law.

6.3. If you owe money to another Christie's group company, Christie’s can retain your property and sell it in any way Christie’s thinks reasonably appropriate, deduct the monies owed from the price realized and pay such monies to the applicable Christie's group company and you the balance.

7. Dangerous property

Christie’s reserves the right to remove from Christie’s storage and/or destroy any property at any time (without any liability to you) that Christie’s deems, in its sole discretion:

7.2. the condition of which renders it unacceptable for storage in accordance with these Storage Conditions or is otherwise not in acceptable condition (by normal criteria); and/or
