If you are bidding with us for the first time, please bid by two of these methods with the same bids (e.g. by post and by phone, or by telephone and by e-mail), or bid in good enough time for us to get back in touch with you with any queries.
| NEW BIDDERS;

              purchased at stamp auctions in the past few years.
              The majority are Commonwealth and

�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 0.7061, so we are allowing 70p 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.

                      increments as much as possible, but do sometimes

                        bids should be sent to us at [email protected]

                      time. Please use the format and wording
                      used on the bid form that comes with your auction

                      alogue, and include your postal address.
                      (We have a back-up email address of  [email protected]
                      in case of problems.) 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 or debit 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 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 credit card details are given after
                          posting, we will charge 1.9%
                          extra (Visa/MasterCard), plus cost of
                        posting receipt slip.
