1 October 2002 - Check bidding status on our Website
Starting from our October Auction, you can now check the commission bidding status of all lots on our website before the start of
floor bidding. The bidding status will be updated daily. Mail bidders will be informed of their bidder or "paddle"
number by e-mail or fax upon request. Your paddle number will not be divulged to anybody else. You will therefore be able
to check if your bids are below reserve (it will not be entered) or if another mail bidder has outbid you by seeing whether
it is your paddle number that holds the high bid. This gives you the chance to fax in further bids.
Updating will stop 24 hours before the auction.
