- In the acceptance of telephone bids, we reserve the right to use discretion regarding the booking of lines for lots under the value of £200.
Please note the following addendums to our Terms & Conditions, particularly those pertaining to potential buyers who come to us via the internet. It is very important that you read all our terms and conditions before submitting commission bids or registering for live online bidding.
Payment and Collection:
In the case of both telephone and commission bids, we would like to bring to your attention that the purchaser must arrange immediate payment upon notification of a successful bid and arrange directly after the sale collection of goods within a maximum of one week. We can recommend, without liability, appropriate courier / carrier firms for collection of goods; however both the insuring and carriage charge is entirely the responsibility of the purchaser. Upon request, we will also pack goods to the best of our ability for collection; we charge in every case £15 per lot for this service.
Registration and Bidding:
The auctioneers reserve the right to refuse admission to the saleroom premises or participation in any auction, and to reject any bid. They may accept, at their complete discretion, bids from those present in the saleroom, written commission bids left in advance of the auction, and an indication of intention to bid from those who wish to bid by telephone or online. Before the sale commences, prospective bidders are required to complete and sign a registration form including their name and permanent address, in order to obtain a numbered bidding paddle. New clients, or those who have not made a purchase at our saleroom within the last two years, may be asked to supply bank details or another financial reference and two forms of identification in order to register. To avoid any delay in the release of purchases, buyers should pre-arrange cheque or credit approval from their bank. Lots purchased will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. The auctioneer may also execute bids on behalf of the seller up to the amount of the reserve, which cannot be above the lower estimate. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the seller.
Commission Bidding:
Commission bids may be left no less than an hour before the start of an auction, indicating the maximum amount to be bid, excluding buyers' premium. These can be left in person, by telephone or via the 'My Lots & Bids' feature of our online catalogues. All bids submitted are regarded as acknowledgement that the bidder has read and accepts the terms and conditions of sale and will submit any specific personal details requested to verify their intention and ability to comply with those conditions. Commission bids will be executed at the lowest possible price having regard to any reserve and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids, the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. The auctioneer may execute commission bids directly from the rostrum, clearly identifying the successful bid as commission bid. Commission bids may be left with saleroom staff by telephone, at which point all details of proposed payment and collection arrangements will be required. We would remind prospective bidders that the firm strongly advises viewing onsite in person, or by an agent, and that any descriptions, condition reports and images supplied to the absentee bidder are an opinion provided by this firm and do not guarantee the condition, age or any other characteristic of the lot in question. Execution of commission bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale and we cannot accept liability in an individual instance for failing to execute a written bid or for errors and omissions in connection with it, arising from circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
Live Online Bidding:
All potential buyers will be required to submit bank as well as credit/debit card details when they register to bid live online. Registration for this service must be made no later than 24 hours before a sale. Bidders will be approved and activated for live online bidding at our discretion. Online bidders may have their credit/debit card details used to pay for lots and any ancillary charges should they fail to contact us immediately after the sale and arrange an acceptable alternative payment method. We reserve the right to charge for the storage of any lots not collected directly after the sale.
PLEASE NOTE: REGISTRATION TO BID AT ANY SIMON CHORLEY AUCTION MUST BE COMPLETED & CONFIRMED 24 HOURS BEFORE THE SALE.
New clients, or those who have not made a purchase at our saleroom within the last two years, are asked to fill in a short form, which will take you to a secure PROTX/CARDNET server page. This authorisation must be completed at least 24 hours before the sale in question.
The authorisation process will confirm your identity by PROTX through the ownership of the card. If you are successful in your bid, the 1GBP will be refunded in conjunction with your settlement of account.
If for any reason you are not immediately authorised as the owner of the card by PROTX, we will of course inform you before the sale
