Sign-Up for Telephone Bidding

Important

Telephone bids must be set up in advance of the auction. Please refer to our full auction terms for the registration deadline.

Please ensure you have an English speaker available for the telephone bid.

Do not register to bid unless you have, or will, see the lot(s) in question before their sale.

How Telephone Bids Work

Once you have registered to bid over the phone, we will give you an approximate time for our call. Our auctions begin at 9:30 a.m. and typically run at about 90 lots per hour. We will call you around five lots before your lot is up for auction. When your lot comes up, the auctioneer will open the bidding in the room and then proceed to take bids from telephone bidders.

If you successfully outbid all other bidders, please contact us to arrange payment and collection.
