Live Bidding DNW?

[Coinery 1,154]

Does anyone know whether DNW have their live-bidding facility operational for tomorrow's sale? I can't remember if it was their website that has it just sat there but never actually doing anything?

I did email them, but all they did was send me an online catalogue! Pah!

I've submitted my bids already but I notice that when you click on "Bid Live" it pops up with: "This facility will be made available on the day of the auction." Promising, but I'd ring them today to be sure - 020 7016 1700.

Based on their prior sales, that is exactly the case -- live bidding is only available on the day(s) of the sale.

I've successfully used it several times. It's only available live, at the time of the sale. I seem to remember that having registered on the site, I still needed to phone up to actually be set up for bidding the first time, but I may be wrong. Certainly worth a phone call to check if you're seriously interested in any lots.

Thanks, Clive, just phoned, and all sorted to bid! For any other web viewers seeing this, it's quite simply a case of creating an account, no credit or debit cards to register!

And, they do just run it on the day!

Thank acc. and coppers, all sorted!

As also being a new bidder you had me worried there. Now I'm worried about the amount of interest

Cartel time chaps.Plattiepus/Surrey coins want the VF's to sell on as UNC's.

If anyone wants to bid on copper PM me and between us we can sort a job. It is worrying.

[VickySilver 830]

Wow, do you trust them to have it up. I have bid successfully day of sale via internet but by recall a couple of times I was "skunked" by being unable to attach on satisfactorily and thus unable to bid...

It is a worry, but I have even less trust to write a blank cheque to someone who's got a vested interest in the coin selling well! I still can find the strength to state exactly what I'm prepared to pay, it feels really alien.

Don't suppose you, or anyone else, is going to be on the floor, by any chance?

Fancy a game of pontoon, Gary?

I don't think our hammered lots will clash, it's Clive and Rob I'm worried about!

Don't look at me, I'm skint and haven't put any bids in this time round. Doing a house up at the moment, so too busy.

I never see any hammered copper at the big houses? That's all I can afford to dig at at the moment, I'm stretched as thin as...well, a thin thing, really!

They do tend to only come up when a collection is sold, it is not very often you will see one or two at auction...I don't know why

It IS strange, I agree! Especially when it's possible to sit through many a lot where even a £2 increment on £20 is a struggle! Copper farthings would hold their own at auction, surely?

Big apologies for my constant edits, I'm sure my phone is doing its own thing. I edited this post because my phone inserted an 'an' for an 'a'! Bloody annoying that you have to watch the screen like a hawk, when all you want to do is look at the tap-keyboard and have what you plonk your thumb in (classic example...i just tapped in 'on,' and the phone, for whatever grammatical logic it can fathom, auto-changed it to 'in') arrive, in the way you WANTED it to, on the g'damn screen! It's not too much to ask, surely? Grrrrrr!

Only the 1 House Rob?...even I'm on a few more.

[VickySilver 830]

Well, no I won't be there and had to figure out what to do so left two bids by email...

Good luck with them, let's all keep our fingers crossed that Christmas comes early!

Uh, more than one. It's the second this year, hence the reduced coin activity of late. I'm a bloke and thus can't multitask which is probably a good thing given the prices at Spink today. I was informed today during the course of the sale thatby working on the house I was in the right place, as attending the sale or bidding online would have been very depressing and/or impoverishing. £165K for the Mary ryal, £36K each for the R3 angel and Briot unite, £6K for the Harold 2 Chichester penny, £18K for the Alfred penny with legend around the bust. Big numbers for the special pieces, though the average bits were eminently affordable.
