A summary of auction houses I have visited operating near Alresford in the north of Hampshire, United Kingdom. I am a regular buyer at Andrew Smith’s and I assist at Auctions in a Day. I am an infrequent visitor to the other auctions.
Please visit the auctioneer’s web site for current information. Buyers Commission includes VAT where applicable.
Sellers Commissions are generally the same as the Buyers Commission but there may be additional fees: lotting, insurance, storage etc.
