Below are the measures we have had to implement. You must read and understand these new measures before proceeding to register for this sale.

Section 1: VIEWING
The general public are now allowed into the saleroom. This is by appointment only and the viewing days are Monday 19th To Friday 23rd October between 9am and 3pm. Please don’t just turn up, you must contact us first to make an appointment.

What we think is good and what you think is good may be miles apart.

Section 2: BIDDING
We are NOT allowing the general public into the auction room at present. The reason for this is because we are conducting larger sales, we have had to reduce the bidding area. With the latest government guidelines, we would only be able to accommodate a maximum of six people. We feel this is not practical and so for the time being, you will still need to bid live online from your home, We are excepting commission bids as normal but we are not able to provide a telephone bid services for this sale.

Section 3: PAYMENT
Please note that we would prefer payment by bank transfer our sort code and the account number is on the invoice you receive. The only other way is by debit card over the telephone on 01782 792585 or 07778 347125 or 07864 046382 during the following times.
