Bid Form

There is a 10% buyer’s premium for this sale.

It has been a considerable time since the last sale, and there is little change ... the shop is still looking for suitable alternative premises to move into. Nothing adequate has turned up as yet, but there are many friends and acquaintances with their ‘eyes open and ears to the ground’, so hopefully something will turn up in the near future, so that normal service can be resumed soon.

It’s been decided to hold this public auction despite the disadvantage of having nowhere to hold viewing in the week prior to the sale; if there are any lots that you’d like to see, please get in touch and we’ll try to upload a photo to the Facebook page A.S.A.P.

Email bids to Stampshop40@btinternet.com Please place the bids within the body of the text, rather than as an attachment. You’ll get a confirmation email to let you know that your bids have been received. The latest that bids can be placed by email is 12 noon on the day of sale.

It is possible for customers known to us to leave bids by phone 07757 105 310 as the phone is often out of signal range, text is often best ... but please, don’t forget to leave your details!

All World Mixed Lots

Lot numbers one to twenty-seven are for Room Buyers only: they’re generally mixed lots, with clearance items, sorting boxes, some kiloware, postcards, accessories, etc. Generally bulky and probably worth less than the postage costs would be!
