Experience all the fun of bidding in person. Arrive in time to register and we will happily provide you with a bidding number. If it is your first time, simply fill in a registration form at reception.
Our specialist sales are hosted live on the-saleroom.com, the world's leading portal for fine art and antique auctions. While other live auction platforms exist, they do not rival the-saleroom for global presence and audience. Visitors to the site can search and browse catalogues, and place bids over the internet in real time, with live audio feeds communicating the auction room atmosphere. It is free to register, and easy to do so, by simply following their online instructions to create an account.
All our available catalogues can be found on the Auctions page. Once you have located our auction house in the list you may view the illustrated catalogue, sign up to bid, and listen live on auction day.

We kindly ask that telephone bids be requested in writing (either via email or written letter), at least 24 hours before the sale date. Please contact us on 01228 904905 or email us at [email protected] for more information.
We like to keep things simple.
If you can't attend the sale in person, and would like to leave us a commission bid (what's this?), simply send us an email with your full name, address, telephone number and a copy of photographic ID, along with the lot number(s) and your maximum bid(s). If you are successful, we will send you an invoice via email, and if you are located at a distance, we will even add a figure for postage.
Invoices are sent out via email at the close of the sale, if you are not within our immediate locale, we will automatically include a postage quote where appropriate.
If you are successful, you will pay the hammer price, plus buyer’s premium.
We kindly request payment via bank transfer; all the details needed will be conveniently listed on your invoice.
We offer a friendly in-house packing and posting service for most lots. Unlike most auction houses, we are happy to pack and post a wide range of items.
For items of particularly high value, or for those of a fragile nature which would not be suitable for a postal service, we recommend Mailboxes Newcastle.
See our Postage & Packing page for more information.
