We thought it Timely (if not Marvelous) to advise you of how we’re operating over the upcoming festive period.

To order in time for Christmas, UK orders must be placed by 4 pm on Saturday 11th December. As long as they’re paid for by 4 pm on Tuesday 14th December, they’ll be posted on Wednesday 15th December. Royal Mail advise that these should be delivered in time for Christmas. (Delivery times vary outside the UK, so we’re not giving dates for these.) After this, we won’t be posting again until Wednesday 29th December.

Our weekly Newsletters will continue up to and including 11th December, after which they’ll be taking a two week break, returning on Saturday 1st January. You can of course place an email order at any time, and we will fill your order and bill you to fit in with the above postage dates.

We shall be using the time to catch up with the assessment of several collections that are awaiting valuation, so that when the Newsletter returns on 1st January, it should feature bumper updates going forward.
