Payment methods and billing

Invoicing is carried out the day after the auction close, if you offered a credit card with your bid form your card will also be charged. Otherwise, you'll be sent an invoice and your lots will be held until payment is received (see below for acceptable payment methods).

A 15% buyers premium is added to the selling price of lots, and postage and insurance are added on at cost. See About Shipping for more information on postage methods.
