The figure at the end of each description is our estimate, in pounds sterling. 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. |

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 0.8549, so we are allowing 85p 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.
THE
AUCTION VENUE is 650 metres West of our
Shop, on
The bar (upstairs) is open
we do not allow drinks at the viewing tables, but
you are welcome to bring drinks down from the bar
once the auction has started.
Phoning for
results ? Note
that our shop does not open until
we do not normally answer the phone on the day after
the auction until after that time.
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,

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
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

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

telephoning or writing. (Photocopies are available,
at a minimal plus postage, or request scans by
email.)

2% per month or part thereof.
