It is the responsibility of all buyers to provide Lang’s with correct contact information and valid shipping address.

Due to the large amount of auction lots requiring shipping service, receipt of auction items may take up to 4 weeks, longer for items requiring special packaging, including oversize or overweight items. International buyers may encounter longer receipt times. Book buyers may also experience longer receipt times due to Media Mail shipping.

Unusual packaging needs or special shipping arrangements outside of Lang’s shipping department’s abilities, will be provided by a shipping service if Lang’s deems it necessary or it is requested by the purchaser.

If required insurance exceeds $5,000.00, the package will be mailed by Registered mail, which will extend arrival date. US maximum insurance per package is $25,000.00, over this amount, we will mail in multiple packages.

Due to country specific insurance maximums, an alternate carrier may be necessary to properly insure auction items, incurring additional shipping expense to be paid by the purchaser.

Please be advised: Due to prior issues, shipping to a third party requires your signed release absolving Lang’s from ALL liabilities, including damage, loss, or theft of your auction lots. All items have been properly packaged and verified as to condition prior to shipment. However, since you are not the physical recipient, you must accept full responsibility for your items immediately upon delivery to the third party.
