to below as "The Bidder") and delivered to Countrywide
Property auctions (referred to below as "The auctioneers")
to be received not less than 24 hours prior to the start of the
auction together with the appropriate payment. a separate
form should be completed for each lot for which a Bidder
requires the auctioneers to bid.

current money laundering regulations, either the originals
or copies certified by a solicitor or a member of Countrywide

THE DEPOSIT. Each form must be accompanied by a
deposit payment which represents either
(a) For proxy bids ­ 10% of the bid or £2,000, whichever is
the higher.
(b) For telephone bids ­ 10% of the maximum guide price for
that property or £2,000. whichever is the higher. Plus £800

with a telephone bid, the purchase price is higher than the

the purchaser to make the deposit to the required figure.
if the purchase price is less than the guide price, then the
payment will be used in full as a deposit. in the event that the
bidder is unsuccessful, the full amount of the deposit will be
promptly refunded.
4.
PROXY BID. The auctioneer or his staff will compete in
the bidding up to the maximum of the authorised Proxy bid.
if successful, the purchaser will be informed as soon as is
practicable.This bid is binding on the bidder up to 6pm on
the day of the auction to allow for the possibility on unsold
lots that the Vendor agrees to sell post auction at a figure
below the reserve price. where two equal bids are made
by two separate bidders, the first bid received will take
preference.
5.
TELEPHONE BID. a member of the auctioneer's staff will
attempt to contact the Bidder by telephone prior to the lot
concerned being offered for sale. if contact is made then the
Bidder may compete in the bidding through the auctioneer's
staff or the Bidder's agent. The bidder accepts that they are
unable to participate in the auction if it is impossible to obtain
telephone contact or the line breaks down.
6.
THE CONTRACT. at auction, a contract is created at the fall
of the auctioneer's hammer. if a bid is successful therefore,
the auctioneer is authorised to sign the memorandum of
agreement (minutes of Preference and Enactment for scottish
property)
7.
DISCLOSURE OF BID. The amount of any proxy or
telephone bid will not be disclosed to the Vendor or any
other party except senior members of the auctioneer's staff.
8.
CHANGE OF MIND. if the Bidder wishes to withdraw the
bid or wishes to attend the auction to bid himself, then it is
the Bidder's responsibility that the auctioneer for the day is
informed personally before the lot in question is offered for
sale.
9.
AUCTIONEER'S LIABILITY. The auctioneers will do their
utmost to conform with the instructions of the Bidder, but will
accept no liability whatsoever for any bid not being made
on behalf of the Bidder, whether through lack of clarity of
instruction or any other reason.
