10th October (2pm onwards) : Results/Invoices will be issued to all bidders, regardless of success.
10th October (6pm) : Unsold Lots will be available to purchase. Please note, although you can request and pay for unsold lots straight away, please be aware that we are unlikely to commence shipping Late Sales orders until Monday 20th October at the earliest. Our procedures are such that auction bidders who provide payment details before the closing date are processed first in bidder number order; we then start shipping goods for those auction bidders who send payment in response to their invoice. Late Sales orders are processed and shipped after completion of the above. We regret we cannot make exceptions in order to expedite shipping Late Sales orders as we believe this would be unfair to auction bidders.
13th October : Shipping Commences. As noted above, bidders who provided payment details before the closing date are processed first.
3rd November (10am) : Late Sales Closes. Any remaining unsold lots will be reoffered with a reduced estimate in auction UPA100 in January 2026.
