Full Terms and Conditions for bidders:
The Great Britain Internet Stamp Auctions, hereafter referred to as " G.B.I.S.A" takes great care to ensure that all descriptions of condition, cancellation, centring, colour, date of issue (postal marking), gum, paper, perforation, printing, margins, provenance, quality, source, sheet position, status, usage, watermark, and other philatelic terms for each "lot" are accurate and reliable. We guarantee that each individual item or "lot" is authentic and genuine unless stated otherwise.
Please note that the statements within our descriptions are the opinion of G.B.I.S.A and are not intended to be taken as factual statements.
Any expressions, comments, opinions, or annotations regarding the characteristics mentioned above that are attached to individual items or included within any lot (such as notes or catalogue prices) are not part of the auctioneer's statements unless otherwise verified or indicated by the auctioneer.

(a) Each lot has a reserve price.
(b) The highest bidder for each lot, taking into account the reserve price, will become the purchaser.
Clause 2:
(a) G.B.I.S.A can withdraw any lot without providing a reason.
(b) G.B.I.S.A may bid on behalf of buyers and vendors, but is not liable for any errors or omissions.
