Entry forms must be received at least 48 hours prior to the sale day, although please contact us beforehand to ensure there is sufficient space left in the auction. Items must be received at the Sale Room by 4.00pm the day before the sale, although they can be dropped off in the weeks leading up to the sale at any one of our offices.
Commission at our Collective Sales is charged at 15% + VAT on all goods sold, with a minimum charge of £5.00. All payments will be sent out within 2 weeks of the auction date, less any expenses and commission.
Entry forms are available from any one of our branches or please email or phone us.
Buyers’ Conditions
All items purchased must be collected by 8.00pm on the day of the sale, unless haulage has been arranged. If items fail to be collected, a charge of £2 for small items and £10 for larger items will occur.
A Buyers Premium of 10% + VAT is charged upon every item purchased. Payments of accounts are made by cash and cheque only if accompanied by a banker's reference or bank card.
It’s worth noting that if you bid on an item at any auction, once the auctioneer has banged down their gavel in your favour and said “sold” a legal contract exists and you are obliged to pay for the item you have bid on. Always set yourself a top limit and try not to get carried away!
