THE CONTRACT

1a) No vehicle will be accepted for sale unless the appropriate entry form has been fully completed and the entry fee paid. The Registration Book (and MoT certificate where applicable) must also be handed in to the Auctioneers and payment for the vehicle will not be made until this is produced.

The Auctioneers shall be entitled to a commission on the price at which the vehicle is sold in accordance with the published scale of charges. The commission will be paid by the Vendor at the time of sale.

Any vehicle sold without reserve may be held over to the next sale at the Auctioneers discretion in order to achieve the vehicles full potential. This decision rests with the Auctioneer not the Vendor. If in this event the Vendor decides to withdraw the vehicle then full commission is payable. d) The Auctioneers reserve the right to sell by Private Treaty at the Reserve Price (or such other price as may be agreed by the Vendor) any vehicle which has failed to sell by auction.
