Shipping & Sales Tax

Arrangement and costs of shipping are the responsibility of the buyer.

We recommend that potential buyers contact Village Express and or UPS to receive a shipping estimate prior to bidding. The possible high cost of shipping does not absolve a buyer from following through with a purchase.

Shipping:

Our approved shipper is The Village Express, Branford, CT 203-481-7426 or (vexpress@comcast.net) Attn: Kristen.

 

They will contact you after payment is made to arrange your shipping. Shipping is arranged only after items are paid for in full and payment clears. If payment is made by check, items will be held 7 days before shipment.

PICK UP: Items can be picked up in person at 14 Business Park Drive - Unit 5, Branford, CT - BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Please contact the gallery 24 hours in advance to make an appointment. Pick up can be scheduled for Monday through Friday between 9am - 3pm. We cannot accommodate any pickup without an appointment. Please note that all first-time buyers that wish to pick items up in person must pay with cash. 

Sales to out of state buyers that are picked up by the buyer's representative will be charged Connecticut sales tax unless the representative is a licensed commercial shipper and provides a Bill of Lading at pick up.

IMPORTANT: 

Purchased items that have been paid for but not picked up from our auction facility within 14 days of the auction will be stored at a rate of $5 per day per lot. Items not picked up within 60 days of the auction date will become the property of New England Auctions. 

Sales Tax - ATTN: ALL DEALERS/TRADE with Tax Exempt Numbers 

All sales are subject to Connecticut sales tax unless the buyer holds a valid tax exempt/resale certificate (from any state) and submits a signed and dated State of Connecticut Sales & Use Resale Form with their tax-exempt information prior to release of the purchases. We must receive this form for each auction transaction, even for tax exempt bidders who will be having their items shipped out of state. (This form is available at neauction.com). We do not collect sales tax on items shipped to other states unless a particular state's sales tax nexus has been met. Sales to out-of-state buyers without a resale certificate, that are picked up by the buyer's representative, will be charged Connecticut sales tax unless the representative is a licensed commercial shipper and provides a Bill of Lading at the time of pick up.
