Bids are accepted above or below this figure, although bids below about 75% or 80% estimate only have a tiny chance of success (and are not normally sold at less than about two-thirds of estimate). Estimates are in Pounds Sterling do not include the 10% buyer's premium.
After the main listings you will find various information and instructions. This is followed by a sample bid form, and a copy of the the notes that appear on the reverse of our bid forms.
This is a public auction, in which written/telephone/e-mail bids are also accepted. If you are bidding with us for the first time, please bid by two of these methods with the same bids (e.g. by post and by phone, or by telephone and by e-mail), or bid in good enough time for us to get back in touch with you with any queries.
NEW BIDDERS;
Please note that bidders who are not already known to us are required to bid in the first instance by two different methods. The options available are email, telephone, or post. New customers attending one of our sales in person for the first time, and intending to bid, are invited to make themselves known before the sale starts. This saves the auctioneer from having to ask for a name during the sale. |

us or connect online � as well as our main website at

we can be found on the social media by searching for �Robert Murray
Stamp Shop� on

Facebook
Our Website will still be the first port-of-call for
most information, but the Facebook and Google+ pages
will be useful places for news, updates, snippets, and
comments.
Our Facebook page often has a few
illustrations and further descriptions and comments,
extra to what is in the catalogue.
�uro Currency; We are happy to accept Euro cash
payments in our shop. We normally allow the market
rate rounded down to the next whole penny. For
example, at the time of writing, the market rate is
0.8865, so we are allowing 88p per Euro (which is
probably better than your bank will give you). You can
also pay for lots in this auction by Euro banknotes
(postal customers please confirm before sending). We
also accept payments in our shop in Euros, and we buy
the old �legacy� currencies, as well as other coins
and notes.
NORMAL BIDDING STEPS
We list here our normal bid steps for your
information. This may be of help to bidders who are
unable to
attend the sale, as any written bids received which do
not fit our normal pattern would usually be taken
down to the next normal step. (We keep to these
increments as much as possible, but do sometimes
change if circumstances make it desirable.)
Up to �20, bids are in �1 steps.
From �20 to �30, bids are in �2 steps.
From �30 to �50, bids are in �2 or �3 steps (i.e. �30,
�32, �35, �38, �40, �42, �45, �48, �50).
From �50 to �100 in �5 steps.
From �100 to �200, bids are in �10 steps.
Then �220, �240, �260, �280, �300, �320, �350, �380,
�400, �420, �450, �480, �500, �550, �600, �650, �700,
�750, �800, �850, �900, �950, �1,000, �1,100, �1,200,
etc., and above this in 5% to 10% steps.

THIS IS HOW YOU CAN
In Person.
This is a public auction, and bids are made in the
traditional manners.
Bids by
post. Please use the Bid Form supplied, and send
first class.
Telephone
bids will be accepted at any time before the sale
(but the earlier the better). These bids
should be confirmed in writing, even if the
written confirmation will not reach us until after the
auction. Numbers are 0131 552 1220, or 0131 478
7021.
A mobile number (07974 962649) can be called on
the afternoon and evening of sale only.
Fax bids;
no fax facility is available.
E-mail
bids should be sent to us at [email protected]
at any time from the moment you
receive this catalogue until
time. Please use the format and wording used on
the bid form that comes with your auction cat-
alogue, and include your postal address. (We have
a back-up email address of [email protected] in case of
problems.) We normally confirm receipt of email bids
within
24 hours (not on the Sunday before the auction,
and usually within one hour on the auction day)
CREDIT CARDS
We are happy to accept MasterCard and
Visa credit card payments, as well as payments by
Maestro and Delta. This facility can be used by room
purchasers (who pay their accounts at the auction), by
other local customers (who pay their bill in our
shop), and by postal buyers.
In order to deal with postal clients, our bid forms
have been designed to make space for credit or debit
card instructions.
If you want your purchases charged in this way, please
complete the appropriate section.
Do
not
complete these details unless you want to pay by card,
and to have
the lots posted.
We have negotiated good rates with our bank, and are
able to absorb the bank charges for this service
ourselves, and therefore there is no additional charge
for the use of this facility, as long as postal
bidders give us their details in advance of
posting. Only for postal buyers where credit
card details are given after posting, we will
charge 1.9%
extra (Visa/MasterCard), plus cost of posting
receipt slip.

FORTHCOMING AUCTIONS; Our next stamp auction is planned for 26
September
This auction is
conducted according to the �Philatelic Auctioneers
Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale� (available if
requested), with the exception of Clause 6, where
�Scottish� should be substituted for �English�.
A Buyer�s Premium of 10% (inclusive of
global v.a.t.) will be added to the sale price of all
lots.
Telephone bids are accepted, but must later be
confirmed in writing. Alternatives and limits are
accepted.
Material can be
accepted at any time for inclusion in future sales. Our
commission is 12% of the sale price, plus administration
fee of �1.20 per lot + �5.50 per vendor (all plus
v.a.t.). Full details on request.
We DO NOT charge buyers a handling charge per
lot, nor is there VAT added to any sale prices.
Please bid early. In the case of equal
bids, the lot will be sold to the person whose bid was
received first (unless free bidding in the room equals
the top book-bid, although the Auctioneer will try to
regulate the bidding in such a way as to avoid this).
Apart from viewing the lots in person, you can get
a better description of any lot, by telephoning or
writing. (Photocopies are available, at a minimal plus
postage, or request scans by email.)
Remember the Buy or
Bid
The annual subscription for our auction
catalogues is currently �7 for inland addresses. If you
are not already on our mailing list, please send us �9
with a note of your name and address. Regular bidders
and buyers may qualify for free renewal. Rates abroad
are European countries �12, Overseas �15.
Successful postal bidders should note that
postage stamps are not an acceptable means of paying
your account.
Prices realised for this sale will be published
with our next catalogue. If you are not normally on our
mailing list, the List of Prices Realised can be had by
simply sending us a stamped addressed envelope.
Alternatively, you can be put on our auction mailing
list (see above).
The telephone number at the
Stewart�s-Melville Pavilion is 0131.551 2331
(mobile 07974 962649).
Open Bids (�Buy Bids�)
are not normally accepted. If such bids are made, they
will be taken to mean a bid of ten times the printed
estimate.
Any invoices remaining unpaid fourteen days
from the auction date (or after delivery to a postal
buyer) will attract interest at the rate of 2% per month
or part thereof.

Most Popular Stamp Shop.
We've started
selling some of our stock of philatelic (and other)
books online on Amazon. We actually have a
very good stock, but few customers know what we have if
they don't ask. You can go onto our www.stamp-shop.com
website, get onto the Contents page, and you'll see a link
from there. (This
link will take you off this site to Amazon's.)
Of course these books are also available to shop customers
(though prices are sometimes different due to Amazon�s
�aggregate price plus postage� policy !).
