The absence of any indication of restoration or defect does not guarantee that the item is free of them. Conversely, the mention of a few defects does not imply the absence of any other defect. The published reproductions of the lots are as faithful as possible to reality but have no contractual value greater than the description in the catalogue, as the proportion of the objects may not be respected and there may be differences in colour or tone. A prior exhibition enables buyers to appreciate the condition of the items offered for sale.

Notwithstanding the law of 31 December 1903, the successful bidder acknowledges and accepts that any items that have not been withdrawn by him within three months will be considered as abandoned and may be sold after a petition has been lodged with the court, and that Drouot will not have to wait a year to proceed with their sale by auction in accordance with the law of 31 December 1903.
Consequently, it should be noted that items that have not been removed within the three-month period may be reoffered for sale in order to cover storage costs.
By contractual extension of the law of 31 December 1903, which only allows abandoned items to be sold but does not give the depositary the right to apply to the courts for the right to destroy them, the successful bidder expressly acknowledges that items of low market value (i.e. items with an acquisition value by the successful bidder of less than 50 euros) which have not been removed by the successful bidder within a period of six months will be considered to have been definitively abandoned by the successful bidder. Ownership of these goods will then revert to TSE, which may destroy them after notification by registered letter to which there has been no response for one month, without having to seek an order from the judge referred to in article 2 of the law of 31 December 1903 concerning the sale of abandoned goods. In any event, in the event of destruction, the successful bidder may not under any circumstances claim any loss in excess of the purchase price paid by the successful bidder for the property destroyed.
