Buyers Guide

DELIVERY

We can always arrange delivery of any item but depending on the item it could incur unnecessary costs, you will always have the option of collecting from our warehouse and showrooms just South of Edinburgh we will be happy to store items for you free of charge for up to 3 months after the purchase date. If time is not an issue for your delivery we can often help buyers by delivering with our own vehicles when they are near to your area but this is dependant on logistics, our fee would be nominal if you elect this service.

FRAMED ITEMS

You could save substantially on a delivery charge on framed and glazed items as its possible for us to send to you without the frame. If you elect to do this and want us to retain the frame for uplift at a later date you just have to inform us and we will store it free of charge up to a period of 3 months from purchase date.

All frames on items are sold as seen but if a frame needs a little touch up prior to collection or sending our workshop will do this free of charge.

JEWELLERY

All our jewellery comes with independent valuations from industry accredited valuers. We know from experience at auction that most buyers like to insure their jewellery purchases and all the valuations we supply should be accepted by all the major insurance companies. If you need any assistance on this we are here to help.

We state the ring size and description with each ring lot, if you know what size you want your ring to be we can have it adjusted prior to sending for a nominal charge of £30 + vat. Most rings have a wide tolerance for sizing if its a plain band but if the ring has diamonds or gemstones on the shoulder this normally restricts sizing to a few sizes up or down.

If you are having jewellery delivered it will always be done by fully insured registered post at our cost price from the royal mail.
