1
Albania - Premium mint (hinged) and used selection of 59 stamps 1913-1944, seemingly all better neatly identified and arranged on 3 pages, including "back of the book" airmail / semi-postal issues. A premium offering of better material. 2025 Scott US$952.25 = $1,285.50
History

2
Algeria #B1-B103. Complete run of mint semi-postal issues from the 1927-1969 period, all neatly arranged in mounts on the previous owner's album pages. Mostly Never Hinged, but we did note some Hinged material as well mixed in (especially in the earlier material). Ignore some of the pricing on the pages, that was done before us and does not reflect the current catalogue value. A nice chance to get a run this comprehensive. 2025 Scott US$496.20 = $669.85
History

3
Australia #52/55. Trio of nicely used higher value "Roos" with the "Narrow Crown/Narrow A" watermark (Scott wmk 10). The 2/- brown has a light parcel cancel, the 5/- has a socked-on-the-nose "Sydney/39" CDS cancel. The 10/- has a lovely, light "Gaffneys Creek, Victoria" circular date stamp (from the old gold mining community which had a post office up to 1981). A couple of pulled perfs noted here and there, still very striking stamps. 2023 Scott US$415.00 = $560.25
History

4
Australia #126-129. The four highest value ‘"Roos" covering the 5/- to £2.00 denominations from the 1932-1935 printing with the "C of A" watermark. The 5/- is likely cancelled to order, the 10/- has a socked-on-the-nose "Ship Mail Room" cancel, the £1.00 has a partial "Sydney" cancel and the £2.00 stamp has an indistinguishable CDS cancel. The £1.00 stamp has a bit of wrinkling and the £2.00 has a rounded corner. Still better than normal appearance. 2023 Scott US$1295.00 = $1,748.25
History

5
Australia #129. VG/Fine CDS used example of the 1934 issue £2 dull rose and black high value Kangaroo (wmk 228). A decent example of this elusive stamp. 2024 Scott US$800.00 = $1,080.00
History

6
Australia #132. Perfectly centered partial CDS used example of the 1932 issue 5sh gray green "Sydney Bridge" high value commemorative. This stamp is almost always found off centre. 2024 Scott US$275.00 = $371.25
History

7
Australia #O1/O14, CO1. Wholesale lot of "OS" overprinted officials on regular issue and airmail stamps. All used except for one copy of O3 which is mint, hinged. The Kingsford Smith issue includes non-CTO examples and there are up to 9 of a type. A complete run except one of the 6d Kangaroos. Expect the occasional small fault, but otherwise this is a desirable group. Total 2023 Scott US$615.55 = $830.99
History

8
Australia - Duo of fine mint Lightly Hinged 1915/1923 "Roo" issued with "SPECIMEN" overprints, consisting of the 1915 issued £2.00 black and rose and 1923 issued £1.00 grey (Stanley Gibbons #45s/75s). Gibbons only values the #45s as part of a set of three (at £800.00), but lists #75 individually at £150.00. A couple minor gum bends, mentioned "for the record", but an attractive addition to any early Australia collection. Estimate = $150.00
History

9
Australia - Kangaroo OS perfins sorted by perfin type and then by denomination and colour and unchecked for watermarks. Starts with 8 copies of the large "OS" from the first issue, followed by an assortment of the small "OS" on 1/2d-2/- denominations with up to six of a type. Not listed in Scott, but the minimum Stanley Gibbons catalogue value is £360.00 ($632.00 CDN). Bonus material includes five stamps with "OS/NSW" perfin, 2 with the "T" perfin for the Government of Tasmania and the sleeper is a £1 ‘Roo Scott # 57 (catalogues $375.00, the only stamp that we did check for watermark), with an "ES" perfin for "Elder Smith & Co" with the appropriate Adelaide postmark. Expect a few minor faults and there could be some light duplication. Estimate $200.00
History

10
Australia - Perfin Holding. A collector's accumulation of 236 Perfin stamps, neatly arranged on stockpages and including both "Official" and "Private" perfin types. Strength in the George VI era "Roos" and "Heads". An interesting group, of which we usually don't see in this sort of quantity. Expect the odd fault. Estimate = $130.00
History

11
Australia - Roo-stravaganza Part 1. An old-time estate find, originally in a small envelope stuffed with used Kangaroo issues, probably untouched in 40 years. We mounted it on a Vario stockpage, leaving it unchecked for watermarks, retouches, or cancels (of which there are several beauties). This part covers the 1/2d to 6d and is only sorted by major colours, but obvious shade differences exist. Roughly 100 stamps, expect the odd small fault, but catalogued by the minimum Scott for each denomination/colour. A very conservative total 2023 Scott US$1133.00 = $1,529.55
History

12
Australia - Roo-stravaganza Part 2. From working on an estate and a small envelope stuffed with used Kangaroo issues emerged from the pile, probably untouched in 40 years. We mounted it on a Vario stockpage, leaving it unchecked for watermarks, retouches, or cancels (of which there are several beauties). This part covers the 9d to 10/-, and is only sorted by major colours, but obvious shade differences exist. About 80 stamps in total, expect the odd small fault, but catalogued by the minimum Scott for each denomination/colour. A very conservative total 2023 Scott US$598.75 = $808.31
History

13
Australia - Used collection of Australian 1913-1990 in deluxe Stanley Gibbons padded album. About 80% complete for the period (with the exception of "Back of the Book", which need attention), almost all used with the odd mint (usually in mounts) mixed in throughout. A great "foot in the door" collection to be built upon, or take what you need to fill the holes in your own album. Estimate = $130.00
History

14
Australia - New South Wales #O24/O33. Unusual "Specimen" overprinted set with the OS overprint and subsequently cancelled to order. Attractive appearance and all with no gum (presumably as issued). Both Stanley Gibbons and Scott indicates that the 5/- should be perf 10, but this example is perf 12. The footnote in Scott indicates that these may not be unexpected, as residual stock and reprints were sold when these issues became obsolete. Owner's 2018 Stanley Gibbons £500.00 = $900.00
History

15
Australian States - Perfins & Postmarks! A collector's holding of 97 Perfin Stamps & 220 "Postmarks", seemingly from all Australian States, but with strength in Tasmania. A very interesting duo of groupings, the perfins which seem to feature both "Official" and "Private" perfins, the "postmarks" being selected stamps, chosen by the collector for either CDS or Numeral cancels. Expect the odd fault, but a fun group of material, perfect for future research. Estimate = $160.00
History

16
Australian States - New South Wales #14/128 plus Back of the Book. Study group of used NSW issues with some perforated and imperforate side-face Victorian issues and a nice run of 1851 and "coin" design issues to 5/-. It’s unclear if any attempt has been made to sort by Stanley Gibbons, but there are some beautiful stamps here, along with some nice, readable cancels. About 150 stamps in total, including some "OS" overprints and "OS/NSW" perfin officials. Expect some minor duplication and some mixed condition. Perfect for the student of early OZ! Estimate = $150.00
History

17
Australian States - New South Wales #O30. Terrific "OS" overprint in red on the violet 5/- "Map" issue perforated 12x12 and likely cancelled to order (about the only way that you are going to find this issue). Nice deep colour and about as nice as you are likely to find. 2023 Scott US$800.00 = $1,080.00
History

18
Australian States - New South Wales #O31. Clean "OS" overprint in black on the ultra coloured 20/- "Governors" issue perforated 12x12 and likely cancelled to order (about the only way that you are going to find this issue). Clear print in an unlisted lighter coloured shade. Very nice. 2023 Scott US$1100.00 = $1,485.00
History

19
Australian States - New South Wales #O31. Strong "OS" overprint in black on the dark ultra coloured 20/- "Governors" issue perforated 10x10 and likely cancelled to order (about the only way that you are going to find this issue). Large gauge perfs are a bit rough, as you would expect. A previous owner’s mark is on the reverse. 2023 Scott US$1100.00 = $1,485.00
History

20
Australian States - New South Wales - Used accumulation that is the balance of an estate. Includes better individual stamps, such as Victorian side face issues to 8d, a 20/- "Governors", and a study group of five copies of the 5/- map and a nice used copy of #B1. Plus, there is potential for Stanley Gibbons listed shades and perforations and attractive and unchecked cancellations appear throughout. These unpicked holdings don’t come around very often. Estimate = $180.00
History

21
Australian States - Queensland #13/139. An extensive wholesale accumulation of hundreds of used Queensland, identified and sorted by Stanley Gibbons numbers. Up to about 20 of a type, with lots of stamps in the $3.00 - $7.50 catalogue range, but with individual items up to $27.50 (the high value "Chalons" are not counted), all half-filling a high end 48-page Lighthouse stockbook. Lots of cancel potential, with many numeral "Sunburst" cancels noted. The condition will be a bit mixed, but this is an unpicked holding that hasn’t seen the light of day in decades. Estimate = $250.00
History

22
Australian States - Queensland - Old time collection PLUS extras that will appeal to all students and collectors of Queensland material, including a mounted collection with lots of Chalon issues (values to £1) with several "sunburst numeral" cancels (and stamps which could catalogue up to $100.00 each). This is followed by a black stockpage with more early issues (only a few revenue cancels), with the lot concluding with a few pages of cheaper material selected for their cancellation appeal. Expect some duplication, some mixed condition and some joy to sort. Estimate = $200.00
History

23
Australian States - Revenues - Mounted assortment of used revenue stamps from Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. The Victoria includes Scott-listed "Stamp Duty" issues including AR11 and AR58 (catalogues $125.00 and $100.00 respectively), plus two different groups with "Cattle" overprints (there are good on-line catalogues that will help you sort these out). New South Wales includes "Stamp Duty" issues to £10.00 and the Queensland has some nice "Newspaper and Parcel" stamps showing steam trains. Over 100 stamps, all revenue cancelled, in better than average condition. Great to increase the eye-appeal of your collection. Estimate = $200.00
History

24
Australian States - South Australia - Balance of a collection with some very attractive items. Includes an old, mounted collection from the earliest issues both perforated and imperforate, with a good smattering of issues through to the tall issues (with denominations up to 5/-) and some officials. There are four pages of stamps selected for their readable cancels, including many squared circles. Unchecked for Stanley Gibbons varieties. Expect the condition to be a bit mixed and for some minor duplication. Also expect value at every turn! Estimate = $180.00
History

25
Australian States - Tasmania #2, 2a. Clean used copies of two of the three shades of the first 4d issue of Tasmania from 1853, showing the "Young Victoria". The stamps are F/VF with partial numeral cancels that an expert might be able to decipher. Comes with a certificate from Pinchot and Son (1988) of genuineness. A great way to start your Tasmanian collection. 2023 Scott US$975.00 = $1,316.25
History

26
Australian States - Tasmania #11/32. A dozen and a half used "Chalon" designed stamps, both perforated and imperforate up to 1/-. Includes some nice numeral cancels (and a couple manuscripts). Usual mixed condition, but great appearance. All counted as the cheapest for the design, so bargains might be found, including different shades or perforations. Total 2023 Scott US$921.00 = $1,243.35
History

27
Australian States - Tasmania - A couple of sections from mounted collections with nice "Chalon" issues to 1/-, both perforated and imperforate including some interesting cancellations and running up to the Pictorial issue. Lots of $30.00 - $75.00 stamps throughout, based on the layout there could be shades or perforations awaiting discovery. About 75 stamps in total, but with a bonus group of a dozen reprints, forgeries or otherwise reprobate stamps (including two that have "bad" certificates). A great lot for study or to enhance your collection. Estimate = $200.00
History

28
Australian States - Tasmania - Heavenly town and numeral cancel hoard. From an estate that has been untouched for thirty years, this collector bought and never got around to organizing. Hundreds of stamps here, mostly on their original pages, including stockpages and a mounted collection. Noted common towns (but sometimes with uncommon cancels from those towns), mixed in with better such as "Spring Hill", "Pieman Bridge", "Kangaroo Point", "Ouse" and "Campbell Town". Most are unidentified and await your discovery. There is good value just for the stamps here. Given the good quality of the strikes, we expect some mixed condition amongst the stamps. As with any old accumulation, some duplication should be expected. Estimate = $350.00
History

29
Australian States - Victoria #2/232. Balance of an estate that has sat dormant for over 30 years, with an assortment of used Victorian issues starting with a four-page mounted collection going back to the earliest issues (catalogued $550.00 many years ago with the faulty not counted). Accompanying this is a selection with a couple of pages of numeral and town cancels, a single album page and concludes with the loose stamps out of the lot that we have corralled onto a couple of black stock pages (noted #B1-B2 used), along with lots of cancel appeal and some better stamps peeking through. Appears unchecked for Stanley Gibbons listed varieties. Terrific little lot! Estimate = $200.00
History

30
Australian States - Victoria #30/228. Significant accumulation of several hundred used stamps, with up to 40 of a type filling a near-new 16-page Lighthouse stockbook. Bought as a collection 30 years ago and then appears to have never been touched. Some obvious shade and cancel appeal (e.g. numerals, circular date stamp, duplex), but unsure if perforations have been checked. Most are common stamps, with denominations to 5/-, but stamps cataloguing $3.00-$10.00 each are everywhere and includes a few Stamp Duty revenues. About as unpicked as you are going to find material like this. Estimate = $200.00
History

31
Australian States - Victoria #132/232. Treasures and attractive space fillers amongst this mint page of later Victorian issues. About 1/3 of the stamps have original gum, the rest have no gum and the copy of #124 is not counted (catalogues $100.00). The best includes #159 and #168 and there is lots of good shade study material here, especially amongst the penny and three half-penny issues. Substantial catalogue value throughout. Estimate = $130.00
History

32
Australian States - Victoria #184/229. Magnificent looking group of 28 different late Victorian issues. Includes most of the February 1901 set, including the three high values, both the May 1901 printings, most of both the June 1901 and 1905-1910 sets to 1/-. Fresh appearance, with better than average backs. Several have the Scott number penciled on the back, which doesn’t take away from this terrific lot. 2023 Scott US$661.45 = $892.96
History

33
Australian States - Victoria #B1-B4. All four of the Queen Victoria and Boer War fundraising semi-postal stamps. A mix of original gum (with heavy hinging) and no gum. That being said, these have an overall fresh appearance, and will be a welcome addition to fill those pesky "back of the book" spots. 2023 Scott US$667.50 = $901.13
History

34
Austria - Mid-1960's to early 2000's collector's used stock, neatly arranged within a 16-page Lighthouse stockbook and 11 manila stocksheets. Easily over 1000 stamps here, most selected for premium postmarks (plus a nice stockbook and manila pages). Estimate = $120.00
History

35
Bahawalpur - Ten Packets, each containing #1, 2-6, 16, 17, 22-25, 26-29, O1, O2, O12, O14-O15, O25-O28. Unusually fresh and VF mint NH or postally used selection of 25 different 1945-1949 period issues from the short-lived autonomous formerly Indian state. Some of these stamps are surprisingly hard to find, in no small part due to the very short time period that these were valid issues. What were once "all different" sample packs now catalogue US$96.50 per pack of 25! This lot contains 10 packs. A perfect acquisition for the Ebay or show seller. 2024 Scott US$965.00 = $1,302.75
History

36
British Antarctic Territory #1/201. Elegantly mounted collection in clear mounts, starts off with a near complete run to 1973, including both £1 denomination, switching to a mix of mint and used for the balance of the 1970's and then all mint to 1993 (but numerous spaces to be filled between 1986 and 2003). The mint all appears to be never hinged and most of the used material (as to be expected) is likely of philatelic origin. Very nice condition, and not often seen. Total 2023 Scott US$689.05 = $930.22
History

37
British Commonwealth - Common Design / Omnibus Collection. A nicely arranged collection of 1937 Coronation (189 stamps), 1946 Peace Issue (151 stamps), 1947 Royal Visit (14 stamps), 1948 Olympics (24 stamps) and 1948 Silver Wedding (low values, 71 stamps). All neatly hinged on quadrille pages within a blue Rapkin springback album. While not complete for any of the issues, this offers a hefty start to being complete and a great way to fill in holes in any current holdings (449 stamps in total). 2025 Scott US$340.55 = $459.75
History

38
British Commonwealth - Near complete set of the 1949 UPU (Universal Postal Union) Omnibus series, mint, lightly hinged on quadrille pages within a green Rapkin springback album. Missing only French New Hebrides, but including Iraq, Palestine and Jordan. A total of 322 stamps, making for a very attractive offering of this popular issue. 2025 Scott US$484.25 = $653.75
History

39
British Commonwealth - Plymouth Collection : Fiji Islands. Wonderful comprehensive used collection of Fiji 1937-1987 (#114/578) with 520 stamps, including perforation varieties, neatly arranged within mounts on quadrille pages within a Stanley Gibbons "Plymouth" album (with slipcase).

History

41
British Commonwealth - Plymouth Collection : New Zealand. Absolutely stunning 2-volume used collection 1935-1988 (#185/897, including "back of the book" Health Stamps, Life Insurance, Ross Dependency). A total of 1009 stamps, largely complete for the period with many better items throughout (and mounts in-place for the small group of items that are "yet to be found"). Likely the nicest used collection of New Zealand we have ever seen, which we have elected to offer "as received" rather than break down to give the future owner the ability to enjoy the care and attention given to this collection. All neatly arranged in mounts, on quadrille pages within (2) Stanley Gibbons "Plymouth" albums (with slipcases). A seldom seen opportunity. 2025 Scott US$4356.50 = $5,881.25
History

42
British Commonwealth - Plymouth Collection : Norfolk Island. An in-depth, high quality used collection of Norfolk Island 1947-1988 (#1/436) with 440 stamps, seemingly complete for the period, neatly arranged within mounts on quadrille pages within a Stanley Gibbons "Plymouth" album (with slipcase). A wonderful assembly of material, collected and presented with great care by the previous owner. A gold-mine for complete sets and topicals. 2025 Scott US$447.75 = $604.45
History

43
British Commonwealth - Plymouth Collection : Papua New Guinea. Premium used collection of PNG 1952-1987 (#122/685) with 563 stamps, largely complete for the period.

History

44
British Commonwealth - Plymouth Collection : Solomon Islands. Premier used collection 1937-1987 (#64/605), George VI / Elizabethan collection of 652 stamps, largely complete for the period, neatly arranged within mounts on quadrille pages, within a Stanley Gibbons "Plymouth" album (with slipcase). A wealth of complete sets and topical interest, easily the nicest assembly of Solomon Islands we have seen in sometime! A great opportunity here. 2025 Scott US$706.85 = $954.25
History

45

History

47

All neatly arranged in mounts, on quadrille pages within a Stanley Gibbons "Plymouth" album (with slipcase). Largely compete for the period, with mounts in-place for the few missing stamps. Largely philatelic cancels, but just about the only way to find these used. Wonderful topicals throughout. 2025 Scott US$280.05 = $378.05
History

Algeria #B1-B103. Complete run of mint semi-postal issues from the 1927-1969 period, all neatly arranged in mounts on the previous owner's album pages. Mostly Never Hinged, but we did note some Hinged material as well mixed in (especially in the earlier material). Ignore some of the pricing on the pages, that was done before us and does not reflect the current catalogue value. A nice chance to get a run this comprehensive. 2025 Scott US$496.20 =

Australia #52/55. Trio of nicely used higher value "Roos" with the "Narrow Crown/Narrow A" watermark (Scott wmk 10). The 2/- brown has a light parcel cancel, the 5/- has a socked-on-the-nose "Sydney/39" CDS cancel. The 10/- has a lovely, light "Gaffneys Creek, Victoria" circular date stamp (from the old gold mining community which had a post office up to 1981). A couple of pulled perfs noted here and there, still very striking stamps. 2023 Scott US$415.00 =

Australia #126-129. The four highest value ‘"Roos" covering the 5/- to £2.00 denominations from the 1932-1935 printing with the "C of A" watermark. The 5/- is likely cancelled to order, the 10/- has a socked-on-the-nose "Ship Mail Room" cancel, the £1.00 has a partial "Sydney" cancel and the £2.00 stamp has an indistinguishable CDS cancel. The £1.00 stamp has a bit of wrinkling and the £2.00 has a rounded corner. Still better than normal appearance. 2023 Scott US$1295.00 =

Australia #O1/O14, CO1. Wholesale lot of "OS" overprinted officials on regular issue and airmail stamps. All used except for one copy of O3 which is mint, hinged. The Kingsford Smith issue includes non-CTO examples and there are up to 9 of a type. A complete run except one of the 6d Kangaroos. Expect the occasional small fault, but otherwise this is a desirable group. Total 2023 Scott US$615.55 =

Australia - Duo of fine mint Lightly Hinged 1915/1923 "Roo" issued with "SPECIMEN" overprints, consisting of the 1915 issued £2.00 black and rose and 1923 issued £1.00 grey (Stanley Gibbons #45s/75s). Gibbons only values the #45s as part of a set of three (at £800.00), but lists #75 individually at £150.00. A couple minor gum bends, mentioned "for the record", but an attractive addition to any early Australia collection. Estimate =

Australia - Kangaroo OS perfins sorted by perfin type and then by denomination and colour and unchecked for watermarks. Starts with 8 copies of the large "OS" from the first issue, followed by an assortment of the small "OS" on 1/2d-2/- denominations with up to six of a type. Not listed in Scott, but the minimum Stanley Gibbons catalogue value is £360.00 ($632.00 CDN). Bonus material includes five stamps with "OS/NSW" perfin, 2 with the "T" perfin for the Government of Tasmania and the sleeper is a £1 ‘Roo Scott # 57 (catalogues $375.00, the only stamp that we did check for watermark), with an "ES" perfin for "Elder Smith & Co" with the appropriate Adelaide postmark. Expect a few minor faults and there could be some light duplication. Estimate

Australia - Perfin Holding. A collector's accumulation of 236 Perfin stamps, neatly arranged on stockpages and including both "Official" and "Private" perfin types. Strength in the George VI era "Roos" and "Heads". An interesting group, of which we usually don't see in this sort of quantity. Expect the odd fault. Estimate =

Australia - Roo-stravaganza Part 1. An old-time estate find, originally in a small envelope stuffed with used Kangaroo issues, probably untouched in 40 years. We mounted it on a Vario stockpage, leaving it unchecked for watermarks, retouches, or cancels (of which there are several beauties). This part covers the 1/2d to 6d and is only sorted by major colours, but obvious shade differences exist. Roughly 100 stamps, expect the odd small fault, but catalogued by the minimum Scott for each denomination/colour. A very conservative total 2023 Scott US$1133.00 =

Australia - Roo-stravaganza Part 2. From working on an estate and a small envelope stuffed with used Kangaroo issues emerged from the pile, probably untouched in 40 years. We mounted it on a Vario stockpage, leaving it unchecked for watermarks, retouches, or cancels (of which there are several beauties). This part covers the 9d to 10/-, and is only sorted by major colours, but obvious shade differences exist.

Australia - Used collection of Australian 1913-1990 in deluxe Stanley Gibbons padded album. About 80% complete for the period (with the exception of "Back of the Book", which need attention), almost all used with the odd mint (usually in mounts) mixed in throughout. A great "foot in the door" collection to be built upon, or take what you need to fill the holes in your own album. Estimate =

Australia - New South Wales #O24/O33. Unusual "Specimen" overprinted set with the OS overprint and subsequently cancelled to order. Attractive appearance and all with no gum (presumably as issued). Both Stanley Gibbons and Scott indicates that the 5/- should be perf 10, but this example is perf 12. The footnote in Scott indicates that these may not be unexpected, as residual stock and reprints were sold when these issues became obsolete. Owner's 2018 Stanley Gibbons £500.00 =

Australian States - Perfins & Postmarks! A collector's holding of 97 Perfin Stamps & 220 "Postmarks", seemingly from all Australian States, but with strength in Tasmania. A very interesting duo of groupings, the perfins which seem to feature both "Official" and "Private" perfins, the "postmarks" being selected stamps, chosen by the collector for either CDS or Numeral cancels. Expect the odd fault, but a fun group of material, perfect for future research. Estimate =

Australian States - New South Wales #14/128 plus Back of the Book. Study group of used NSW issues with some perforated and imperforate side-face Victorian issues and a nice run of 1851 and "coin" design issues to 5/-. It’s unclear if any attempt has been made to sort by Stanley Gibbons, but there are some beautiful stamps here, along with some nice, readable cancels. About 150 stamps in total, including some "OS" overprints and "OS/NSW" perfin officials. Expect some minor duplication and some mixed condition. Perfect for the student of early OZ! Estimate =

Australian States - New South Wales - Used accumulation that is the balance of an estate. Includes better individual stamps, such as Victorian side face issues to 8d, a 20/- "Governors", and a study group of five copies of the 5/- map and a nice used copy of #B1. Plus, there is potential for Stanley Gibbons listed shades and perforations and attractive and unchecked cancellations appear throughout. These unpicked holdings don’t come around very often.

*On our great bidboard page you will notice that we have included a declining clock that displays the time remaining in the sale, subject to the addition of overtime. There is an automatic 3 minute bidding extension if a bid is submitted on any lot within the last 3 minutes on the bidding clock. These time extensions will continue to occur until there is a 3 minute period during which no bidding takes place. We expect overtime with this type of bidding will last two to three hours in extra bidding time. This extra time will allow you to make sure you get the lots you really want to get right away.
