27th February: Catalogue Available
1st April (5pm) : Bidding Closes
2nd April (5pm) : Live Bidding for lots estimated at £1,000 GBP+ via Easy Live Auction. To participate, please register at Easy Live Auction by 2pm on 2nd April. Please note, we will try to approve registration requests placed after this time but we cannot guarantee this.
NB: IMPORTANT Please note the LIVE BIDDING SERVICE IS COMMISSION FREE provided you pay the FLAT FEE of £3 when registering to bid with UPA. We regret that we cannot subsidise this service. We STRONGLY urge colleagues (collectors and dealers) to pay the minimal £3 flat fee at registration.
4th April (2pm onwards) : Results/Invoices will be issued to all bidders, regardless of success.
4th April (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 14th April 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.
7th April : Shipping Commences. As noted above, bidders who provided payment details before the closing date are processed first.
28th April (10am) : Late Sales Closes. Any remaining unsold lots will be reoffered with a reduced estimate in auction UPA98 in July.
The catalogue is organised in Country order, with General material starting at Lot 1. We also have a ‘Gallery’ section which comprises late entries and/or high value material. For those countries which have additional lots in the Gallery section, this is indicated in the catalogue. In auction UPA97, the Gallery section starts at Lot 26808 (and appears at the front of the printed catalogue). The catalogue is available in a number of formats – please choose from one of the formats below…
