Common use of Bidding Clause in Contracts

Bidding. We do not accept bids from any person who has not completed and delivered to us one of our Bidding Forms, either our Bidding Registration Form, Absentee Bidding Form or Telephone Bidding Form. You may be asked for proof of identity, residence, financial details and references, which, if asked for, you must supply if your bids are to be accepted by us. Please bring your passport, driving licence (or similar photo proof of identity) and a debit or credit card. We may request a deposit from you before allowing you to bid. We may refuse entry to a Sale to any person even if that person has completed a Bidding Form. Bidding in person You should come to our Bidder registration desk at the Sale venue and fill out a Bidding Registration Form on the day of the Sale. The bidding number system is sometimes referred to as “paddle bidding”. You will be issued with a large card (a “paddle”) with a printed number on it. This will be attributed to you for the purposes of the Sale. Should you be a successful Bidder you will need to ensure that your number can be clearly seen by the Auctioneer and that it is your number which is identified as the Buyer’s. You should not let anyone else use your paddle as all Lots will be invoiced to the name and address given on your Bidding Registration Form. Once an invoice is issued it will not be changed. If there is any doubt as to the Hammer Price of, or whether you are the successful Bidder of, a particular Lot, you must draw this to the attention of the Auctioneer before the next Lot is offered for Sale. At the end of the Sale, or when you have finished bidding please return your paddle to the Bidder registration desk.
