How to buy in an Online Auction

First of all don't be intimidated. It's easy.

You can bid on one of our online sales while sitting in your own living room. There are no hidden reserves or minimums. If you place a bid on something and no one else bids against you then you "win" the lot at the start bid price. 

We advise bidding after carefully reviewing the photographs of each lot. We take detailed shots of any condition issues.

Occasionally lots are unsold.

This happens when there are no bids on a lot. Sometimes they are re-offered at a reduced start bid and sometimes the owner chooses to have them returned.

We are happy to help guide you through the auction process. Please e-mail us if you have questions about specific lots in the sale. We will try to provide you with as much information as possible. Bid today!
