As a service to those wishing to place bids before sale in writing, bidding

ESTIMATED PRICES
<Br>
As a convenience to our clients, we furnish pre-sale estimates for all
materials included in the auction. These estimates are only our approximate
valuations and should be taken as educated guesses based upon comparable
auction values and recent sales, not as “prices.” Bidding may begin at about
one-third to one-half the estimate but the final bid price may well be less
than or more than any estimate printed.
<Br>
BUYERS’ PREMIUM
<Br>
The purchase price paid by a buyer shall be the sum of the final floor bid plus
a 15% buyer’s premium. No extra fee will be charged if you pay by credit card.
