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, £1,200,

number, and email or phone to advise us of payment,
plus
PayPal by arrangement (additional fee of 4% UK, 5% foreign).
€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 0.8564, 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 some old “legacy” currencies, as well
as other coins and notes.
The Auction Venue is 650
metres West of our Shop, on Ferry Road. It has its own car park.
The bar (upstairs) is open 6-10pm and also serves a variety of food, teas and
coffees. Please note that we do not allow drinks in the auction room during viewing,
but you are welcome to bring drinks down from the bar once the auction has
started.
Email bids are acknowledged
within 24 hours (1 hour on auction day). If no reply from us, please resend.

IMPORTANT; Viewing Arrangements for “Not-To-Auction” Lots.
This relates to all lots in
this auction which have the “[1a]” symbol in their description, signifying that they will not be taken to
the auction venue. It will be arranged so that these lots can be viewed at our
shop premises on auction day, and that purchases can be collected that
same evening.
{a} In addition to the normal viewing arrangements noted above, any lots marked
“[1a]” can be viewed at our smaller shop at 1A Inverleith Gardens, on Monday 25th
November from 3pm to 6.45pm. Should there be pressure on available space, viewing
will be at the discretion of our staff.
{b} After purchasing and paying for any “[1a]” lots at the auction venue, customers
can take their receipted invoice to our shop and pick up these lots, from 8pm
until ten minutes after the last customer has been cleared through accounts.
{c} Customers can still opt to collect their lots from us later in the week during
shop opening hours.
{d} There is no parking directly outside 1A, so customers will have to park a little further along Inverleith Gardens.
While we can lend you a trolley, there will be no available staff to carry boxes.

FORTHCOMING
AUCTIONS;
Our next auction is planned for early February 2010.
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 12%
(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 accepted.
Material can be accepted at any time for
inclusion in future sales. Our commission is 12% of the sale price, plus
administration fee of £1.70 per lot + £7 per vendor (all plus v.a.t.). Full details on request.
We DO
NOT charge buyers a handling charge 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 can get a better description of any lot, by telephoning or writing.
(Photocopies are available, at a minimal plus postage, or request scans by
email.)
Remember the Buy or Bid Sale - bring
items along on the night. We will try to sell them for you, at a charge of 10%
+ 50p (optional insurance 1% extra). Have a look at what’s on offer before and
during the main auction. You can buy items outright or place a bid. (Larger lots delivered to
our shop are charged £1 per lot entry fee.)
The
annual subscription for our auction catalogues is currently £10 for inland
addresses. If you are not already on our mailing list, please send us £10 with
a note of your name and address. Regular bidders and buyers may qualify for
free renewal. Rates abroad are European countries £15, Overseas £20.
Successful postal bidders should note that postage
stamps are not an acceptable means of paying your account.
Prices
realised for this sale will be published with our next catalogue. If you are
not normally on our mailing list, the List of Prices Realised can be had by
simply sending us a stamped addressed envelope. Alternatively, you can be put
on our auction mailing list (see above).
The
telephone number at the Stewart’s-Melville Pavilion is 0131.551 2331 (mobile 07974 962649).
Open
Bids (“Buy Bids”) are not normally accepted. If such bids are made, they will
be taken to mean a bid of ten times the printed estimate.
Any invoices remaining
unpaid fourteen days from the auction date (or after delivery to a postal
buyer) will attract interest at the rate of 2% per month or part thereof.
