How to make £10 free from Alliance Auctions

We all know how costs rise year by year. Printing costs go up, paper prices go up, so do envelopes let alone postage. We love to send out catalogues but it is getting prohibitively expensive.

Therefore just send us your email address and each month we will advise you when the catalogue is online. We will advise you again 2 days before the sale. If you do this then you get a £10 voucher to spend in our sales.

We know some of you like to have a paper catalogue, and of course, if you do we will happily continue to supply these as we do at the moment.

Revision). The placing of a bid is taken as full agreement to these. For Postal Bidders we will buy on your behalf at the lowest possible price, subject only to other bids received or reserves.

Postage, packing and insurance costs shall, in all cases, be borne by the purchaser.There is a handling fee of £2 for packing & insurance, applied to each consignment.

n Please avoid phoning for results the day after the sale, as we are exceptionally busy. We try to despatch lots the week of the sale, but it may take up to a week to complete this task. Please bear with us.

n We do strive for complete customer satisfaction and will accept the return of lots for an immediate refund, however as we have a duty to pay our vendors promptly 60 days after the sale, no returned lots can be accepted beyond 28 days from the date of the auction. NO EXCEPTIONS can be made unless an extension is requested when bidding. In line with this policy, unpaid pro-forma invoices will be cancelled 42 days after the sale and the lots returned to the Vendor. A lot may be returned which has been incorrectly described for a full refund, except in the case of Collections or Mixed Lots which are sold on an ‘as-is’ basis and not subject to rejection.

n All lots must be paid for within 14 days of invoice receipt. Payment can be made by signed and crossed blank cheque (Eurocheque with number on reverse up to £200), or Sterling draft or money order, or by Credit card (Access / Mastercard / Visa / Eurocard only) or debit cards. Overseas customers paying in currency other than £ Sterling must add £6 to their invoices to cover bank charges. After 28 days unpaid invoices will have interest added at the rate of 2% per calendar month or part month.
