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. |

any time you want to speak to us � from anywhere in the UK for

Friday
18 March; Please note that our shop will be closed all
day on the Friday after this auction.
�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 0.8492, so we are allowing
84p 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.
We are now stocking the
magazine Stamp and Coin Mart in our shop.
This is a monthly publication, priced at �3.20, and is a good
general interesting read. If we have copies available we�ll
bring them along to the auctions.

Estimate.
VAT on
Postal Services. As from 31 January VAT has been
applicable to some Royal Mail services. In general terms,
standard services are still exempt (first and second class
post, basic Special Delivery, standard parcels, standard
foreign services) but many �enhanced� services are now liable
to the tax at 20%. Where the tax is charged, it is not just on
the extra amount for the enhanced service but on the total
amount.
For
example, a standard UK parcel up to 4kg was �7.06, and
compensation up to �100 cost �1 extra, making �8.06. Now the
standard parcel is still �7.06, plus �1 insurance, plus 20%
vat on the total price, making �9.67. So the �1 insurance is
in effect costing �2.61.
This will
have
the following possible effect on our customers receiving goods
from us;
{a} Many packages will cost exactly the same as before.
{b} Some will cost a full 20% more than previously.
{c} Where it makes sense and is easy to apply, we will
sometimes choose to send packages by the standard vat-free
service, but cover it through our own insurance policy. This
will appear on invoices simply as �insurance�, and will only
be done where it gives the customer a worthwhile saving.
An then
of course, there�s going to be general increases in postal
rates from 6 April ��
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

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

change if circumstances make it desirable.)

>From �30 to �50, bids are in �2 or �3 steps (i.e. �30,
