• Any person wanting to bid at this auction must be registered, have a bidding number and have read the terms and conditions of sale before being active in auction.
• Where bidders are unable to attend the sale Absentee Bids are welcome. Absentee bids are preferred at least 48 hours prior to the auction but may be accepted up to one hour before the start of the auction provided all details of the Registration Form are completed.
• Any item may be sold before the Auction if a pre-set Buy Now Price is agreed by the bidder. Thus all lots may not reach the Auction on the night.
  
• All Absentee bidders will be contacted to confirm details. NOTE: If you have not been contacted your bid may not have been received.
• All Absentee bids must be accompanied by Credit Card payment details. Absentee bids will be advanced by the auctioneer. All bidding on behalf of the Absentee is undertaken in a competitive manner, at the lowest possible price (taking into account the reserve price and other bids).
• Live phone bidding by prior arrangement is also available. If you wish to bid by phone live at the auction please contact the manager on 06 844 4636 to make the arrangements. NOTE: limited numbers of phone bidders can be accepted on any one lot.
• The organizers will make all endeavours to ensure all details enabling Absentee bids and Telephone bids to be made are completed in time to allow their inclusion in the auction. They take no responsibility for circumstances arising that prevent this. To avoid this it is suggested that all Telephone or Absentee bids are made by forwarding the Absentee bid form to the organizers well in advance of the auction starting.
