No Estimate
Welcome to our third online timed auction, which we've called our "Collectors' Auctions" as most lots are suitable for collectors - single items, covers, small collections, and cheaper lots.
The sale is now live and you can bid on any lots. At 11:00am on Tuesday 23rd November the first lot will end, the next thirty seconds later, another thirty seconds after that, and so on until about 10:00pm.
To avoid confusion with our live auction, the first lot number in this sale is 1000.
INSTRUCTIONS AND RULES for online bidders;
If you are new to this platform, please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions - both for Easy Live Auction and for ourselves. You must register with Easy Live Auction before you make any online bids. Easy Live Auction charge a fee of 3% + v.a.t. (= 3.6%) on the selling price, which we collect on their behalf (there is no option for the single up-front fee in timed auctions). No bids will be accepted below the lower estimate price.
VIEWING; Due to Covid restrictions, viewing in person is restricted, but can can arranged at our shop by appointment. Extra information about lots is available - all requests will be considered.
TELEPHONES; Our phone lines are only staffed at certain times. In the days preceding this auction this will be Monday 15th to Friday 19th November 10am-11am each day, Saturday 20th November 2-3pm, and Monday 22nd November (date of live auction) 10am to 12 Noon (Tuesday 23rd November to be arranged).
NB some catalogue prices in the lot listings are from older editions, as some of the cataloguing work is done from home without always having latest catalogues to hand.
Our Buyer’s Premium is 14.4% (12% + v.a.t.).
