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;

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. |

starts at lot 187, lots 1-186 being the UK Specialised

Collections and
Mixed Lots,
continued.
� The
following
group of 70 lots
represents one very
extensive
world
collection (83
volumes !) now offered
for
sale in sections. The whole collection is an old-fashioned
yet
up-to-date
general range of all countries, with the straightforward
approach of
trying to
get as many different
stamps as possible � in this case about 80,000 different. By
far the
largest
numbers are commoner and cheaper stamps, with the majority
used, but as
the
collector was in the habit of buying auction box lots
and mixtures, occasional finds are possible. Stamps are
mounted with
hinges,
laid out onto A4 graph
paper in A4 binders, usually written-up and in date order.
Occasional
duplication appears to be usually shades, or mint/used,
etc., sometimes
multiples. Quantities quoted are as noted in the albums, and
appear to be correct. The first run of lots is of individual
countries,
followed by albums of smaller
countries alphabetically (which of course excludes the
countries listed
separately).

A Buyer�s Premium of 10% (vat-inclusive)
will be added to all sale prices.
0845 0500 886 Use
this
number to make bids or to check on
prices after the auction � or any time you want to speak to us �
from
anywhere
in the UK for the cost of a local rate phone call.
�uro Currency; We are happy to accept
Euro cash payments in our shop. We display our rate beside the
counter.
We
normally allow the market rate rounded down to the next whole
penny.
For
example, at the time of writing, the market rate is 0.9080, so
we are
allowing
90p per Euro (which is probably better than your bank will give
you).
You can
also pay for auction lots in Euro banknotes (postal customers
please
confirm
before sending). We also accept payments in our shop in Euros,
and we
buy many of the
old �legacy� currencies, as well as other coins and notes.
Most
auctions include a few lots which, due to their large size or
weight
compared
to value, will not be taken to the auction venue. They must
therefore
be viewed
at our shop during the previous week, and successful
purchasers will be
responsible for their collection from us. The symbol for these
is � ��, and very generally
speaking,
there's a cut-off
point of about �2 or �3 estimate per kilo weight.
If you attend the auction and buy any of these lots, you can
either
call at the
shop during normal opening hours, or it is sometimes possible
to
arrange to
pick up after the auction has finished (though please first
speak to
Mr. Murray
to arrange this).
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.
>From �200 to �300, bids are in �20 steps.
>From �300 to �500, bids are in �20 or �30,
and
above this in 5% to 10% steps.

supplied,
and send first

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

space for credit card instructions.
If you want your purchases charged in this way, please
complete the

section.
Do not complete
these
details unless you want to
pay by credit 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 card
details are
given after
posting, we will charge 1.9% extra
(Visa/MasterCard) or 18p (Maestro
and Delta), plus cost of posting receipt slip.
VIEWING; please note that lots can normally be viewed in our
shop during the one week prior to the auction. It is
sometimes
possible
to view auction lots outside the normal times, but this must be by
special
arrangement.
