WITHDRAWN OR NOT FORWARD LOTS: Despite our best endeavours to ensure that all lots catalogued come forward for sale 

we are at the mercy of individual vendors some of whom regrettably do not always send the lots entered. This inevitably causes

disappointment we recommend that you make a phone call to check the availability to any particular “one off” lot before 

setting out.

CLEARANCE: All lots should be cleared on the day of sale, unless alternative arrangements are made, and remain at the risk 

of the purchaser from the fall of the hammer.

are due to be offered in more than one section of the sale at the same time are reminded of this free service. 

PRIVATE SALES: All lots are accepted on the understanding that they must not be sold prior to being auctioned, and any private 

transactions resulting from the exposure for sale of any items must be conducted through the Auctioneers.
