Many auction houses employ specialist valuers for categories such as watches.<\/p>\nWe always advise that buyers request a detailed condition report from the auctioneer before they bid (this is easy to do on the item\/lot page), to make sure they are satisfied as to the condition and authenticity of an item.<\/p>\n
Ultimately, if a mistake is made and an item turns out not to be genuine but was catalogued as such then the buyer can return it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
