    Buyer's Premium is 17.5% (plus VAT).  This is a commission that is paid in addition to the hammer price.

Important information:

In a timed auction, there is no auctioneer taking bids from a live audience in a room. Instead, bids can be placed online, on each lot for a defined period of time. Once the time-period expires, the bidder who has submitted the highest bid wins the lot, provided the bid exceeds the reserve price. Note that the online surcharge is a reduced 3%+VAT.

 

Max bids (competitive bidding)

 

As a bidder, you can enter a max bid – the most you are willing to bid, and we do the rest. The-saleroom.com will bid intelligently for you, only enough to meet the reserve or stay in the lead.

 

End-time extension

 

Lot scheduled end times are displayed on the individual lot time. Note, lots are scheduled to close in 30secs intervals from each other. These scheduled end times are subject to change should bidding occur within 5mins of the scheduled end time.

 

If a bid is placed in the final 5 minutes of the lot’s scheduled end time, the end-time will be extended to protect against ‘sniping’ – the practice of bidders placing bids in the last few seconds preventing other bidders responding. Boldon Auction Galleries have set the lot extension to 5minutes, meaning a bid placed in the final 5 minutes extends the lot’s end time by 5 minutes.

 

Outbid notifications

 

You’ll see your ‘current bid’ when you log in and view the lot (often it will be less than your ‘maximum bid’). If someone bids higher than your maximum, the-saleroom.com will send you an ‘outbid alert’ via email to let you know, so you can decide whether or not to bid more.

 

Viewing is by online catalogue or in person Saturday 3rd June 10am-1pm, Tuesday 6th June 10am–12noon and 2-6pm.  The sale ends on Friday 16th June 12noon.


Payment is due by Monday 19th June. 

All lots purchased must be collected by Monday 19th June.


Buyer`s Premium 17.5% + VAT

Lots purchased online with the-saleroom.com will attract an additional charge for this service in the sum of 3% of the hammer price plus VAT at the rate imposed
