Auction
Guidance Notes
Legal
packs on most lots will be available at our offices and at the sale
room together with any special conditions.
Prospective
purchasers can obtain guide prices on all lots by telephoning the
office.
Please
bid as clearly as possible and remember it is your responsibility
to attract the Auctioneers attention.
The successful
bidder will be under a binding contract when the gavel falls.
A buyers
details sheet will be provided and must be completed immediately,
in exchange for which a card will be issued.
This should
be presented to the appropriate Auction staff as soon as the contractual
documents are ready for signature, usually within 2 to 3 minutes of
the lots being sold.
10% deposit
must be paid by bankers draft or cheque by prior arrangement with
us.
The memorandum
of contract as printed in the catalogue has to be signed and exchanged
before leaving the room.

the office for guidance on general procedures or information on specific
lots, particularly if you are unfamiliar with auction procedures.
