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.
