Registering to bid and Administration fee

Cooper and Tanner requires all bidders who wish to bid at our Auction to register beforehand, whether you are intending on bidding in the room, by proxy or online.

If you are successful in purchasing more than one lot, we will contact you following the auction to take subsequent payments for additional lots bought.
