G'day Folks, Back again after a brief break in transmission, with some Assorted Fractional Lots on offer Scottsdale Tenths & Quarters & Halves, Crowns, Florins, USA and AUS half Dollars and some Bahama 1966 $1 coins Auction finish starting at 18:00 AWST (20:00 QLD / 20:30 SA / 21:00 VIC/NSW), Sunday 12th March...TOMORROW NIGHT!!! *with the obligatory 5 minute from last bid per Lot to allow for post time lock-outs, anti-sniping, entertainment etc* The below example gives an example for the finish process, times to be adjusted to suit each particular Lot... (eg. last post before 17:55 (19:55/20:25/20:55) with no further bids that Lot finishes at 18:00 (20:00/20:30/21:00)...if a bid comes in at 17:58 (19:58/20:28/20:58) then the auction for that particular Lot now finishes at 18:03 (20:03/20:33/21:03)...unless further bids extend it by a further 5 minutes etc...)...hopefully that makes sense... ~ SPOT RESERVE - Highest bid over Reserve price will be the winner on ALL Lots Postage at Winner's Choice/Cost/Risk (at this stage ) BONUS FREE Pre '46 Florin(s) (or '66 Fiddie(s) or '64 Kennedy(s) ) for winners of Multiple Lots And without further ado, on to the Auction...
