At the end of this section is a link to register for ABSENTEE
BIDDING on Alexander Autograph's auction site.
Absentee bidding enables you leave you to lease a maximum bid on any number of lots.
Your maximum bid is strictly confidential. Only the highest bid necessary will be
used.
Our website is updated often as feasibly possible, but may on occasion take time
to reflect the last high bid.
Most auction houses close absentee bidding before the commencement of a given sale;
Alexander remains open throughout the sale, however bids on the day of the sale
will be accepted on 'best-efforts-basis' only. This means that bids left on the
day of the sale or not guaranteed to be accepted or executed.
Customers should be aware that prices posted on our web site are for informational
purposes only; official results will not be posetd until after the auction. No customer
should ever presume that they are the highest bidder based on any posted price.
When in doubt, they should contact customer service via phone or email.
While all accepted Internet orders receive email confirmation, we currently do not
email 'outbid' notices, so please check the website regularly.

At the end of this section is a link to register for LIVE INTERNET
BIDDING on Alexander Autograph's auction site (powered by Artfact). This site
carries a 3% premium over the absentee bidding site, and allows you to bid live
as the lots are put up for sale.
As with absentee bidding, it is important to bid in "proper increment" and while
we take great effort to ensure that all bids are accepted in proper increment, it
is ultimately the customer's responsibility.
For good order, please note the table below and call us before the auction if you
have any questions.
