Coronavirus Update

January 05 2021

We would like to reassure all of our clients that we continue to monitor the situation regarding Coronavirus closely.

In line with current government regulations, we adjusted our mode of operation in March 2020 from an Auction House (open to the public) to an online auctioneer until further notice.  ALL future auctions will therefore be ONLINE ONLY until further notice.  

NOTICES FOR BIDDERS

  • Auctions will be listed on our website and bidding will be available ONLINE ONLY.
  • It will not be possible to view items prior to the auction.
  • We are happy to provide further information, condition reports and additional images via email where required.
  • We have an in house, cost-effective, shipping service and can ship the majority of items worldwide. If an item is particularly large, bulky or fragile, however, please check with us in advance that we are able to ship.
  • We are able to offer a click and collect service.  You will need to pay in advance and arrange a day/time to collect.  Your items will be brought to your car.
  • UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC ENTER OUR PREMISES UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

NOTICE FOR VENDORS

  • All auctions will continue as planned, although they are currently ONLINE ONLY.
  • Sale prices have remained strong since the beginning of the pandemic and bidder numbers have increased.
  • Valuations can be done by email and/or Skpe.
  • Items can be dropped off with us.  We will collect items from your car and give you a receipt.
  • UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MAY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC ATTEND OUR PREMISES UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

We have sufficient stock already consigned to continue running auctions throughout the new lockdown.  

In the meantime, we hope that all of our customers remain safe and well during this difficult time.

Best wishes

Karen and Paul Fairweather (Directors)
