ARTICLE 3 – THE SALES PROCESS

3.1 A Seller offering a Product must first arrange to get it surveyed. To that end, the Seller must fill in the Survey form (available on the Vendome Platform) for the Product that he wishes to be surveyed. At least 2 (two) photographs must be provided in order for Vendome to perform the Survey as soon as possible. The Seller may also get in touch directly with the Vendome Platform by telephone on +33 6 27 14 60 78 or by e-mail at contact@vendome.mc. If it is necessary to draw up an inventory of a collection, the Specialists of Vendome can travel on site and perform the Survey directly at the domicile of the Seller or at the location of his choosing.

3.2 The Specialists of Vendome shall conduct an initial Survey of the Product proposed by the Seller within 48 (forty eight) hours. If the Product is found to be Compliant, the Specialists shall quote an estimated Price in keeping with the state of the market and the distinctive elements of the Seller’s Product. The estimate shall be sent by e-mail together with a draft sale mandate.

3.3 The Seller may either accept or reject the terms of the sale mandate proposed by the Vendome Platform. If the Seller accepts the terms of the sale, he should confirm his acceptance of the terms of the sale proposed by Vendome by e-mail. The sale mandate must be signed and must be provided to Vendome upon handover of the Product by the Seller.

The Seller shall provide the package to the carrier upon collection, together with the signed sale mandate confirming the terms that the Seller previously accepted by e-mail. The Seller may also send the mandate by any means of his choosing, as soon as possible, to the address of the Vendome Platform, namely 1 Avenue Henry Dunant, 98000 MONACO, Monaco.

The Seller may also opt to bring the Product in person during the Survey or exhibition days staged by the Vendome Platform.

The Seller may also refuse to entrust the Product after receiving the estimate from Vendome. In that case, the process shall end at that stage, bearing in mind that no fee shall be charged for the Survey that was carried out. It shall be returned to the Seller, at his expense and organisation.

Finally, the details of the Product shall be uploaded onto the Vendome Platform within 48 (forty eight) hours following receipt of the Product.

3.5 When a Buyer confirms his intention to purchase a Product, this confirmation shall only become effective once the Buyer makes a secure electronic payment directly on the site of Vendome.

The sale is deemed to have taken place when Vendome acknowledges receipt and cashes the entire Transaction Price paid by the Buyer in an escrow account; the payment of the Transaction Price by the Buyer to Vendome shall be tantamount to its approval of the Seller’s offer. The Buyer acknowledges that its acceptance of the offer is made in light of the description of the Product that is on sale and subject to the delivery of the Survey Certificate, and that it is tantamount to a firm undertaking to enter into a contract with the Seller on the terms that are on offer. The Product is then dispatched to the Buyer.

3.6 Once the Product has been received by the Buyer, Vendome shall alone be empowered to instruct the payment of the Price to the Seller, after subtracting the commission and the delivery costs prepaid by Vendome. The consideration for the transaction shall be transferred after expiry of the Buyer’s cooling off period of forteen full days during which he can withdraw from the sale, within twenty days following the payment by the Buyer.

3.7 The Seller shall retain full ownership of his Product until the completion of the transaction. Vendome shall be deemed to be instructed by the Seller to do whatever may be necessary to complete the transaction. Vendome shall be deemed to be instructed by the Buyer to do whatever may be necessary to complete the transaction. Upon completion of performance of these mandates, Vendome’s liability as an agent shall be discharged.

3.8 The Products shall be delivered directly by Vendome, once the Survey has been completed, within 48 (forty eight) hours following receipt of the entire Transaction Price paid by the Buyer.

Delivery further afield is also available: United States, South America, Africa, Asia. The delivery costs amount to €15 for France, €30 for Europe and upon request for other countries.

3.9 Should the Product entrusted by the Seller not find a buyer under the terms stated in the sale mandate, Vendome may propose that the Seller put the Product up for sale again, possibly on new terms.

Should the Product remain unsold after 90 days, Vendome shall propose that the Seller revise the initial Price. With the Seller’s consent, Vendome may discount the Price initially on offer. This discount shall be displayed on the site and shall be reflected in the online sales catalogue as well as the product data sheets, in order to accelerate the sale of the Product.

Should the Product remain unsold after 90 days, the Seller may also opt to immediately retrieve the Product, which shall remain his property. The Product shall then be sent back to the Seller, and Vendome shall bear all the costs.
