Commission and Telephone Bids 
If instructed the Auctioneers will execute bids and advise prospective purchasers. This service is free. Lots will always be purchased as cheaply as is allowed by other bids and reserves. In the event of iden¬tical bids, the in house bid will take precedence. There must always be a maximum limit indicated. 'Buy' or unlimited bids will not be accepted. Commission bids placed by telephone are accepted at the client's risk. All bids are accepted exclusive of buyer’s premium. 
Written confirmation of telephone bids from persons unknown to the Auctioneers must be received before the commencement of the sale. Whilst every effort will be made to execute telephone bidding, the Auctioneers cannot be held respon¬sible for any default or neglect in connection with this service. All such arrangements therefore are made entirely at the prospective buyer's risk. 
It is recommended that all requests for telephone and commission bids are received by the auctioneers by the end of day prior to the auction. While every attempt will be made to execute such bids received on the day of the auction, it is not always possible to do so at this late stage. 

Clearance and payment 
No lots may be removed without payment of the full purchase price and the purchaser's premium unless any prior arrangements have been made. All lots are at the purchaser's risk after his highest bid has been accepted by the Auctioneers. All lots must be removed at the purchaser's risk and expense by 5pm on the Monday following the sale, in default of which the goods will be removed and stored at a charge of £10 + V.A.T. per week per lot, plus any transport costs. The Auctioneers shall not be liable for any loss or damage of any kind while the lot is in their or their agents' custody. In the event of any breach of these conditions by the purchaser the Auctioneers reserve the right to re-sell any lot without further notice by public or private sale and any loss arising from such sale together with all charges and expenses shall be made good by the defaulter. Purchasers shall be charged interest on any account unpaid for more than 7 days from the date of sale at the rate of 6.5% per month or part month.
