Please check our website regularly at www.lambertandfoster.co.uk and look out for any additional materials available on the day of the Auction, in order to stay fully informed with the up-to-date information. 2 The right is reserved to sell any of the Lots prior to the Auction, to withdraw any Lot from the Auction, and to vary the order of sale. If any Bidders are intending to come to the Auction for a specific Lot they are advised to check with the Auctioneers the day before the Auction to ensure that the particular Lot will be offered at the Auction. 3 A guide price, or range of guide prices, is shown for each Lot as an indication of the Seller’s current minimum acceptable price at Auction, to assist Bidders in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. The reserve price would usually fall within 10% of the guide price where a single figure is provided, or where a range of guide prices is specified, within that range. 4 A reserve price is the Seller’s minimum acceptable price at Auction and the figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the Seller and the Auctioneer. 5 Both the guide price, or range of guide prices, and the reserve price, can be subject to change up to and including the day of the Auction. 6 The successful Bidder is bound under contract to purchase the Lot as soon as the Auctioneer’s gavel falls on their final bid. Immediately thereafter the Purchaser will be handed a card to complete supplying details of their name and address and those of their solicitors. 7 The information from the card will be used to complete a Sale Memorandum in the form of that at the back of this catalogue which the Purchaser must sign and exchange with the Auctioneer’s staff prior to leaving the Auction room. 8 The deposit is payable on the fall of the gavel. Purchasers are required to bring a Banker’s Draft or Building Society cheque for an amount representing a sum not less than the deposit, or alternatively a Personal Bank Debit Card (not Credit Card, Business Debit Card or Cash Card) for payment of the deposit. Bidders should notify their bank in advance that they may be making a higher than usual transaction on their card and we would recommend that Bidders check whether or not their debit card has a payment limit prior to the Auction.
