In particular, descriptions made verbally or in this catalogue are not guaranteed, including sizes of harness and vehicles. VIEWING ARRANGEMENTS. All lots will be on view up to and during the auction on the day of sale. Horse-drawn carriages should be in the Market prior to sale day, but most vendors prefer to bring their smaller items early in the morning of the auction. Tuesday is not officially a viewing day but prospective purchasers are welcome to inspect vehicles, although we cannot guarantee the time of their arrival. WITHDRAWN OR NOT FORWARD LOTS. Despite our best endeavours to ensure that all lots catalogued come forward for sale we are at the mercy of individual vendors some of whom regrettably do not always send the lots entered. This inevitably causes frustration and annoyance to prospective customers who may have travelled long distances for a particular lot. To avoid such disappointment we recommend that you make a phone call to check the availability to any particular “one off” lot before setting out.
