documents relating to the lot 

• Check that what is said about the lot in the 

catalogue is accurate 

• Have finance available for the deposit and 

purchase price 

• Check whether VAT registration and election is 

advisable. 

Our role 

As agents for each seller we have authority to: 

• prepare the catalogue from information supplied by 

or on behalf of each seller 

• offer each lot for sale 

• sell each lot 

• receive and hold deposits 

• sign each sale memorandum 

• treat a contract as repudiated if the buyer fails to 

sign a sale memorandum or pay a deposit as 

required by the conditions. Our decision on the 

conduct of the auction is final. 

Guide price 

Where a guide price is given that price is not to be taken 

as an indication of the value of the lot or of the reserve 

price. 

The particulars and other information 

We have taken reasonable care to prepare particulars 

that correctly describe each lot. However the particulars 

are based on information supplied by or on behalf of the 

seller and we are not responsible for errors. 

The particulars are for your information but you must not 

rely on them. They do not form part of any contract 

between the seller and the buyer. If we provide any 

information or a copy of any document we do so only 

on the basis that we are not responsible for its accuracy. 

The contract 

A successful bid is one we accept as such If you make 

a successful bid for a lot you are obliged to buy that lot 

on the terms of the sale memorandum. The price will be 

the amount you bid plus VAT (if applicable). 

You must before leaving the auction: 

• provide all information we reasonably need from 

you to enable us to complete the sale 

memorandum (including proof of your identity that 

complies with money laundering regulations) 

• sign the completed sale memorandum and 

• pay the deposit 

We may retain the sale memorandum signed by or on 

behalf of the seller until we receive the deposit in cleared 

funds.
