POSTAL STRIKES
It seems very likely
that there
will be
postal strikes in the UK around the time of this auction. We
expect
that
catalogues should be out and delivered before any strikes
start, but
please
keep in mind the various implications;
1. If you are posting us a bid form,
please also contact us by telephone or email should
you have any
doubt
as to whether your bids will reach us in time. Remember
� if your
bid form
arrives late, it doesn�t count.
2. We will use our best judgement when it comes to
posting out
customers�
purchases after the sale has taken place. If there is no
strike we will
just go
ahead as normal. We will not put items into the postal
system if we
think they
are going to sit going nowhere. During a strike we will
continue to
process
packages ready to post once the strike is finished.

0845 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 display our rate beside the
counter.
We
normally allow the market rate rounded down to the next whole
penny.
For
example, at the time of writing, the market rate is 0.9010, so
we are
allowing
90p per Euro (which is probably better than your bank will give
you).
You can
also pay for auction lots in Euro banknotes (postal customers
please
confirm
before sending). We also accept payments in our shop in Euros,
and we
buy many of 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.
>From �300 to �500, bids are in �20 or �30,
and
above this in 5% to 10% steps.
