5.
It is up to the bidder to satisfy themselves prior to buying as to the condition of a lot. Whilst we make certain observations on the lot, which
are intended to be as helpful as possible, references in the condition report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated
by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from
defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. The condition report is an expression of opinion
only and must not be treated as a statement of fact.
Please ensure that condition report requests are received before 12.00 noon on Saturday 23rd May as we cannot guarantee that they will be dealt
with after this time.
6.

However, these services are subject to special conditions (see conditions of sale in this catalogue). All arrangements for absentee and telephone
bidding must be made before 5pm on the day prior to sale. Cancellation of bids must be confirmed before this time and cannot be guaranteed
after the auction has commenced.
