Bargains, at the Britannia?

Has anyone overseas received their lots yet? I just phoned and mine is only being sent on Monday. Every year I email and get no reply so have to phone and get told it still isn't sent. They are the most expensive postage fees and slowest of all the auction houses.

That's forward planning Ian!

Date is in the diary, see you and David (anyone else?) there.

Ryan,

I am in a similar boat to you. I needed to chase Ruth a couple of time and she responded yesterday that the lots will be despatched at some point next week.

Hi Frank, Yes, last time I went (November 2016) I picked up to great QSA's as prices well below market value. It takes a lot of searching but they are there sometimes and obviously it depends on what you're specifically collecting.

Well, of course, there are still, on rare occasion, bargains to be found, but, I think in todays marketplace, they are so few and very far between, to be actually found, but, I am pleased that you have managed to find some last year, I hope that history repeats itself for you this year!
