GBS Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 if i wanted to go to the auction can i just turn up or do you have to fill in forms or something? You can just turn up. But you will need to fill out forms if you wish to bid. Now, how about those photos......? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBL Posted October 6, 2010 Report Share Posted October 6, 2010 Go onto Holts website and they should have information about their valuation days on there as HDAv has kindly posted. You will need to do this before the actual auction to get a feel for value. As regards the auction itself, I would recommend going to one of the viewing days beforehand and getting a feel for what is on sale. This will teach you a lot about quality and the market - as the actual auction day itself tends to be a frenzy of activity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
