Our full terms & conditions of sale are printed on the back of the bid
sheet or are available on our website. CONDITION OF STAMPS
IN COLLECTIONS & ACCUMULATIONS: - Any such lots may contain some material with faults, which is taken into
account when setting the reserves & estimates on such lots. - Description of condition of such lots is on the basis of what is the
prevailing condition of the material ie: "Mostly F-VF" means
some faulty items as well. - As is the rule with all public auctions; collections, accumulations &
mixed lots are not returnable. - We encourage bidders to view such larger lots before auction, have
somebody view for them, or ask us for extra information. - We are always happy to answer any queries about specific stamps that are
in a particular lot & their condition and/or provide photocopies or scans
of key items. - Also, we are happy for bidders to phone us during the viewing times (but
not on auction day!) and ask for expanded description of any lots. One of
our describers will then take out the lot and go through it with you on
the phone answering any questions about contents, condition etc.
CONDITION OF COVERS / CARDS etc:
Postally used covers/cards can be expected to show some wear consistent
with their age and travel through the mails such as light filing folds,
backflap or edge faults from opening, slight reductions etc. Unless
severe these will not be mentioned, and are not grounds for returns.
