Buying
at Auction
Catalogues
are available at the office and staff are available to answer
any questions you may have.
To
bid you need to register with the office who will give you a bidding
number unique to yourself. This bidding number can be written on
the back of your catalogue or you may be given a buyer card.
You
can use the same number whenever you visit the saleroom. If you
forget your bidding number, the office can remind you of it, there’s
no need to register again. If you change
any of your contact details simply let the office know the changes.
Please
ensure your bids are made clear to the auctioneer as the sale is
progressing. If you are successful in your bid please hold up your
bidding number so the auctioneer can record your purchase.
You
pay the price you bid plus a buyer’s premium stated in the
catalogue. VAT at the standard rate of 20% is applied to this premium.
Our
payment terms are displayed in the auction rooms and at the office.
We
accept cash, BACS and credit/debit cards. No lots may be removed
until payment is made.
Collection
of Lots
Once
you have paid for your purchases the office will issue an invoice
which you can take to a member of staff in the auction room for
collection. No items are to be removed from cabinets. To minimise
disruption to the auctioneer we ask that you collect your lots at
the end the sale. We appreciate this is not always possible and
will assist if possible. We supply an in-house delivery service
at minimal cost. We are also happy to post items to you at the purchaser's
expense.

certain price to be reached. We do not charge for reserve prices,
