Collections and Shipping Logistics:

On receipt of cleared funds, lots can be collected from our storage facility in Wellingborough.

Please contact the auctioneer for the full details and to make a timed appointment.

Alternatively, we can organise packing for postage and shipment on a worldwide basis.

Please contact us for a quote.

On occasions due to high value, complicated customs arrangements or for the need of highly specialised packing, we will recommend a third-party professional packer and shipper.

All glass will be removed from framed and glazed items prior to posting and may result in delays to shipping your items. (This service is included in the cost of postage and packing).

We can also totally remove all framing and mounts upon request to reduce shipping costs.

Alternatively, lots can be collected in person by prior appointment from NN8 1RT.

Overseas Bidders: 

Are responsible for all import duties, customs charges, and VAT payable in the destination country.

Customs declarations will be based on the final hammer price of winning bids without exception.

We are currently seeing unprecedented delays in customs clearance times around the world, it is not uncommon for this to take several weeks and unfortunately, we cannot do anything to expedite the process or be held responsible for any delays.
