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. |

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.

of payment accepted at auction;
Cash (Sterling, Euro notes)
Cheque (from established customers)
Debit Card (no surcharge)
Credit Card (no surcharge on UK accounts)
Methods of
payment accepted after auction; all the above plus
Direct bank transfer to our account (Robert
Murray Stamp Shop, sort code 82-45-05, account
80371787)
but please quote invoice number,
and email or phone to advise us
of payment,
plus
PayPal by arrangement (additional fee of 4% UK, 5%

NB; credit card payments after
posting of
lots incur a 1.9% surcharge (higher for foreign).
