We make every effort to describe all items accurately. However, all items are sold “as is” and Lycée Français de San Francisco is not responsible for the correct description, authenticity or description of any lot.

The monetary values of the auction items are estimates only and are not warranted for tax purposes or general value. Items may be listed as “Priceless” due to the exclusivity of the item but may have a fair market value. The payment of an auction item in excess of fair market value may provide the purchaser an income tax deduction. If you make any purchases, you will receive a receipt. On the receipt, we will list the item’s fair market value, the amount paid for the item and the difference, if the amount paid exceeds the fair market value. Please contact your tax advisor for further tax information.
