of Sale
Effective January 1, 2026
Last updated: January 1, 2026
Superhouse is a New York–based gallery working with artists, designers, collectors, advisors, and institutions. The following Terms & Conditions of Sale outline our standard policies regarding purchases, deposits, shipping, storage, and delivery.
These terms apply to all sales unless otherwise agreed in writing and are intended to ensure clarity, transparency, and consistency for all parties involved. Separate terms may apply to museum and institutional acquisitions.
For questions regarding these terms, please contact accounts@superhouse.us.
1. Final Sale – No Returns or Exchanges
All sales are final. The Artwork is sold as-is and may not be returned, exchanged, or refunded under any circumstances.
2. Non-Cancellable Sale
Upon issuance of this Invoice, the Buyer’s obligation to complete the purchase is binding and non-cancellable, whether or not payment has yet been made, except by written agreement of the Gallery.
2A. Buyer’s Request for Invoice
If the Buyer or their agent requests issuance of an invoice for the Artwork, such request constitutes a binding agreement to purchase the Artwork in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. The Buyer remains liable for the full Purchase Price, even if payment is made by a third party on the Buyer’s behalf. If payment in full is not received within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, the Gallery reserves the right to cancel the sale, retain any deposits as liquidated damages, and/or resell the Artwork. The Buyer shall remain liable for any shortfall between the resale price and the original Purchase Price, plus reasonable fees incurred in collection.
2B. Default / Non-Payment
If payment in full is not received within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, the Gallery may cancel the sale, retain any deposits as liquidated damages, and/or resell the Artwork. The Buyer shall remain liable for any shortfall between the resale price and the original Purchase Price, plus reasonable collection and storage costs.
3. Condition of the Artwork
The Buyer acknowledges that they have reviewed and accepted the condition of the Artwork as of the date of sale. No claims regarding condition will be accepted post-sale, as the Artwork is deemed to have been examined prior to purchase.
3A. Historical Furniture and Design Objects
For furniture and design items, the Buyer is encouraged to examine the piece and assess its condition prior to sale. The listing of a work does not imply it is in perfect condition or free from restoration or age-related wear (e.g., patina, cracks, minor losses). Restoration or imperfections due to age or use are considered inherent and do not require disclosure unless explicitly requested. A condition report may be provided upon request.
4. Payment, Title, and Risk of Loss
Payment of the total amount due (the “Purchase Price”) constitutes full acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. Payment is due upon receipt of this Invoice unless otherwise stated in writing. Title to the Artwork transfers to the Buyer only after full payment of the Purchase Price, including all applicable fees for shipping, bank transfers, customs, insurance, or storage. Until payment is received in full, the Artwork remains the sole property of the Gallery. Upon the Gallery’s receipt of full payment, all risk of loss or damage to the Artwork shall pass to the Buyer, and the Artwork shall thereafter be covered under the Buyer’s insurance. If the Buyer arranges shipping independently, title and risk of loss transfer upon pickup by the Buyer’s agent or carrier.
5. Shipping, Handling, and Storage
The Buyer is responsible for all costs related to shipping, handling, crating, customs, and insurance unless otherwise agreed to in writing. If the purchased Artwork remains in the Gallery’s possession for more than three (3) months after payment, a storage fee of $500 per month will be charged beginning on the first day of the fourth month. All storage fees must be paid before the Artwork can be released.
5A. Buyer’s Responsibility for Shipping Coordination
The Gallery may, at its discretion, assist in obtaining shipping estimates as a courtesy. However, ultimate responsibility for arranging and paying for shipping lies with the Buyer. Requests for updated shipping quotes do not suspend or delay the Buyer’s payment obligations. Payment in full is required before release or shipment of the Artwork.
5B. Uncollected Artwork / Abandonment
If the Artwork is not collected or shipped within ninety (90) days of the invoice date (or completion of payment, if later), the Gallery may, at its discretion: (i) charge storage fees as set forth above; (ii) consider the Artwork abandoned; and/or (iii) resell the Artwork without further notice to recover outstanding balances and fees. The Buyer waives any claim to the Artwork or to any proceeds of such resale.
5C. Packaging and Storage Disclaimer
If the Artwork remains in the Gallery’s possession after being packed for shipment at the Buyer’s request or due to Buyer’s delay, the Artwork shall be deemed delivered and accepted for all risk-of-loss purposes as of the date of packing. The Gallery shall not be responsible for any changes in condition, deterioration, or damage arising from prolonged packing, storage, or environmental factors during this period. Any such risk, including but not limited to humidity, temperature fluctuation, or material reaction, shall be borne solely by the Buyer.
6. Taxes and Duties
The Buyer is responsible for all present and future taxes, customs duties, and related charges associated with the sale. If the purchase is exempt from sales tax, valid exemption documentation must be provided within fourteen (14) days of the invoice date unless otherwise agreed in writing.
7. Representations and Warranties
The Gallery warrants only that it has the right to sell the Artwork. No other warranties, express or implied (including warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose), are made.
8. Entire Agreement
This Invoice represents the entire agreement between the Gallery and Buyer, superseding all prior communications, negotiations, and agreements, whether oral or written.
9. Governing Law – New York State
This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. Any legal disputes arising under this agreement shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of New York County, and the Buyer agrees to submit to their jurisdiction. The prevailing party in any legal action related to this Invoice shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and related costs. The Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Gallery for any breach of these terms.
10. Third-Party Purchases
If the Buyer is acting on behalf of another party (“Transferee”), these Terms and Conditions shall remain binding on the Buyer and shall also survive the transfer of ownership to the Transferee.
11. Force Majeure
The Gallery shall not be liable for any delay or failure in performance due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, strikes, transportation interruptions, or governmental actions.
12. Production and Delivery Timeline
Any stated timeframe or delivery date provided by the Gallery is an estimate only and is not of the essence. The Gallery shall not be liable for any delay in production, completion, shipment, or delivery of the Artwork, whether such delay arises from material shortages, fabricator schedules, force majeure, customs processing, or other causes beyond the Gallery’s control. Such delays do not entitle the Buyer to cancel the purchase, claim a refund or credit, or modify the Purchase Price or shipping terms. All costs related to shipping, insurance, customs, tariffs, and duties shall remain the Buyer’s responsibility, regardless of any change in timing, rates, or regulations occurring after the date of invoice.
13. Deposits and Forfeiture
If the Buyer pays a deposit toward the Purchase Price, such deposit is non-refundable except in the event of material breach by the Gallery. Once the Artwork is completed or otherwise ready for delivery, the Gallery shall notify the Buyer using the contact information provided. If the Buyer fails to remit the remaining balance or take delivery within sixty (60) days of such notice, the Gallery may, at its discretion: (i) cancel the sale, (ii) retain the deposit as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, and (iii) resell, reassign, or retain the Artwork without further obligation to the Buyer. The Gallery may also deduct from the deposit any costs incurred in fabrication, materials, storage, or administration. Title to the Artwork shall at all times remain with the Gallery until full payment has cleared. Upon cancellation under this provision, the Buyer waives any claim to the Artwork or to any refund or proceeds derived from its resale.
