Either make a bank deposit ( BNZ account 02-0214-0052076-00) and let the Treasurer Terry Castle know, or post your bids with a cheque or cash to Kevan.

No compound or rolling bid instructions will be accepted. Every effort will be made to secure lots at a rate exceeding lesser bids by the smallest margin, and all postal bids will remain confidential to the postal bid coordinator. In the event that a postal bid equals a floor bid, the postal bid will have preference. All postal bidders will be notified after the auction. Completion of the appropriate documentation and payment inclusive of any delivery costs must be received before any item will be released to the buyer. NZCCC cannot provide international delivery and overseas buyers will be responsible for their own delivery arrangements. Any lot found to deviate from the list description will have the postal bids waived on that lot. Buyers : Please register your attendance and obtain a buyer number.
