The Auction Venue
The bar at the venue is open
from 6pm, upstairs from the room used for the auction. Apart
from traditional bar things (like pints of beer !) it also
sells teas and coffees, and will have a supply of filled
rolls. Food and drink should not be brought into the auction
room during viewing, but can be once the auction starts.
Being a rugby club, the catering is of course sensible in
terms of quality and price.
Parking is available in the
club�s own car park. After 5pm we have unrestricted use of
the space, but before that there can sometimes be other
people using the sports grounds. If required, can customers
please take guidance from Club staff. Of course, parking
should be in designated spaces, and disabled bays should be
respected.

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 normally allow the market
rate rounded down to the next whole penny. For example, at the
time of writing, the market rate is 0.8884, 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.
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.
