�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 0.7584, so we are allowing 75p
              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 the old �legacy� currencies, as well as other
              coins and notes. 
Special offer in our shop on Prinz System
                  pages (similar
                to Hagner). Buy five packets and get a sixth one free !
                This applies to single-sided and to double-sided. (If
                you get a mix of doubles and singles, your free packet
                will be of the single-sided.)
                The offer is on now and will run right through to the
                end of January. Any orders made by 31 January can be
                brought to the auction and still qualify.
                These are very popular pages used by many collectors. If
                you don't already use them, pop in some time and we'll
                show you. Single-side pages are �4.75 per packet of ten,
                double-sided are �7.00 per ten, and they come in nine
                different formats.
It is
                some time now since we ran any of our stamp workshops,
                and people keep asking when we�re doing them next, so
                we�ve gone ahead and fixed a new series. See the
                coloured insert in this catalogue for details. We
                usually find that some sell out quickly, so if there�s
                something you don�t want to miss please book up as soon
                as you can.

                clear cover from 1970s/80s packs, but with a completely
                
                new descriptive wrapper, using photographs taken on the
                
                actual anniversary day (4 September 2014). These are 
                available in our shop at �5 each, and we�ll bring some
                to 
                the auction.

�uro Currency; We are happy to accept Euro cash payments
              (banknotes) at our auctions and 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 0.7936, so we are allowing 79p per Euro. 
            We usually have some extra illustrations
              online on our business
                Facebook page. The advantage of this approach is
              that {a} we can be a bit more �chatty� and give further
              information about items, and {b} we can add extra
              illustrations as required, or answer questions publicly.
              You can access this without having to register or log in.

Parcels;
                At some parcel weight bands, Royal Mail are
              now considerably dearer than some other carriers. We�ve
              almost always used Royal Mail and used postage stamps to
              pay the postage. We have not in the past charged any
              packaging fee above the cost of postage.
              If we are asked to use a carrier to send a package (rather
              than Royal Mail), and are not therefore using postage
              stamps, we will charge �5 per consignment for packing,
              plus �1 per further parcel (i.e. 1 parcel �5, 2 parcels
              �6, 3 parcels �7, et seq.). The buyer has to arrange the
              carrier, and pick-ups must be made during our working
              hours.
              We trust you�ll understand !
              We will continue to use Royal Mail as our default service,
              but ask customers to say if they�d rather use another
              parcel company.

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

THIS IS HOW YOU CAN BID;
                   
        In Person. This is a public auction, and
        bids are made in the traditional manners.
                   
        Bids by post. Please use the Bid Form
        supplied, and send first class.
                   
        Telephone bids will be accepted at any
        time before the sale (but the earlier the better). These bids should be confirmed in writing, even if the
        written confirmation will not reach us until after the auction. Numbers are 0131 552 1220, 0131 478
        7021, or UK local rate 0845 0500 886.
                   
        A mobile number (07974 962649) can be called on the
          afternoon and evening of sale only. 
                   
        Fax bids; no fax facility is available.
        
                   
        E-mail bids should be sent to us at [email protected]
        at any time from the moment you receive this catalogue until 
                   
        We normally confirm receipt of email bids within 24 hours
        (not on the Sunday before the auction, and usually
        within one hour on the auction day)
CREDIT
              CARDS
We are happy to accept
          MasterCard and Visa credit card payments, as well as payments
          by Maestro and Delta. This facility can be used by room
          purchasers (who pay their accounts at the auction), by other
          local customers (who pay their bill in our shop), and by
          postal buyers. 
          In order to deal with postal clients, our bid forms have been
          designed to make space for credit card instructions.
          If you want your purchases charged in this way, please
          complete the appropriate section. 
        Do not complete
          these details unless you want to pay by debit/credit card, and to have the lots posted.
          We have negotiated good rates with our bank, and are able to
          absorb the bank charges for this service ourselves, and
          therefore there is no additional charge for the use of this
          facility, as long as postal bidders give us their details in
            advance of posting. Only for postal buyers where card
          details are given after posting, we will charge 1.9% extra (Visa/MasterCard), plus cost of
          posting receipt slip. 
        VIEWING; please note that lots can normally be viewed in our
      shop during the one week prior to the auction. It is
      sometimes possible to view auction lots outside the normal times,
      but this must be by special arrangement.
