How to gain access to the results With a touch-tone telephone you can gain access to the sales results. Dial +44-171-321.3221 (South Kensington Sales) then follow the instructions to enter the sale code and lot numbers: it is easy, when you hear the voice you dial the four digits code followed by the hash key (#); then you dial the lot number followed by the hash key. Immediately you can have the sale price. Let us suppose you had a successful bid for 100 English sterlings. The final price is usually 100 (sale price)+15 (buyer's premium) + 2,62 (VAT on buyer's premium) = 117.62. Some lots are daggered: this means that VAT is payable at the prevailing standard rate (17.5%) by the buyer on the final bid price (hammer price), plus buyer's premium. If you made a bid by post or fax, Christie's can contact on your behalf Merss Cadogan Tate (very good service!) for shipping (for European countries the cost is around 35-50 sterlings for 1-2 cameras). If you need more information you can write to Michael Pritchard, Auction Specialist and Editor of PW, the quarterly magazine of the Photographic Collectors Club of Great Britain (many Exakta Circle Members are members of this Club. Information can be found on Internet). 1997 program The program is: 16-17 January, 20 February, 6 march, 17 April, 12 June (Leica cameras), 10 July, 28 August, 9 October and 20 November 1997.
