Buying at Three Bridges Auction House
How to Bid
Bidding can be done in various ways. You can visit the auction in person and bid by yourself using your unique buyers number provided by ourselves. You can leave a commission bid with us; this is where the auctioneer will bid on your behalf.
Telephone Bid- Same again you can visit us, send an email or call us up for a telephone bid. A member of staff will call you 5 lots before your item it to appear for sale. The member of staff will ask if you want to bid at the increment stated by the auctioneer which then you reply "Yes" or "No" the bidding will continue till you win the item or the other bidder wins the set item. We will call three times, failure to answer will result in us continuing the auction without your bid.
