are met. Royal Bank America, an FDIC federally insured
bank, is the party that provides this service to PSfineart clients. Escrow
purchase terms and conditions are explained below.

accompanied by a PSfineart return authorization number, 3) is packaged
according to instructions, and with the same materials used for delivery,

Buyer's Satisfaction Confirmed:

buyer accepts the art and is satisfied with its purchase, and
