Phoenix Auctions - Friday 27th and Saturday 28th July 2012

Welcome to Phoenix Auctions No.14 Well, the result we achieved for the ½d KGV Sideways Watermark was very satisfactory. At just over $60,000 this more than doubles the last price of $28,300, achieved in 2003. Needless to say the vendor was extremely happy. He was watching the auction online and he said “it just kept on going up and up”. Overall the results from Auction 13 were quite pleasing. As you can see rare and desirable items are generally selling above expectations and this does show how strong the philatelic market can be. The year just gets busier and busier. This auction has over 2900 lots so we have split it into 2 days with three sections on each day. On Friday, Section 1 begins at 10am with PPCs, world collections and Countries A-H, including many covers and a fine range of stamps, there is a very nice group of early French flight PPCs, and very fine selections of Germany and Great Britain. Section 2 starts at 1pm and includes the remainder of the rest-of-world group Section 3 is the Australian Colonies group and this will start at 3pm The Saturday sessions start at 10am with Section 4. This begins with a fantastic BHP collection and continues through to the end of the Roos. Section 5 starts at 12:30pm and continues with rest of the Australian Commonwealth through to the end of the Postal Stationery. Section 6 is the last section and commences at 2:30pm. It begins with FDCs and goes through Postal History and Flight Covers before finishing with Australian Territories and PNG, including early covers from Nauru, NWPI & Papua. As most of you will realise we also hold a small BOX LOT auction on the day prior to our main auction and this time is no exception. These have been very successful with clearance rates of about 90% and aftersales bring this closer to 100%. If you are thinking of “cleaning up the study”, these box lot auctions represent an ideal way to sell those bulky boxes of philatelic “gems”. BOX LOT #1205 will be held on Thursday 26th commencing at 3pm and then it will be followed by our first LITERATURE auction, which will start at 4pm. The LITERATURE auction catalogue will be printed with the BOX LOT auction catalogue so don’t forget to request a copy if you are interested. The BOX LOT and LITERATURE catalogue will be mailed out about 15th July. Naturally they will be on-line at the same time. We have a bit of travelling coming up, David will be in Sydney on the weekend of August 18th & 19th. Just call the office if you would like him to pick up any other vendor consignments while he is there, or if you would simply like to discuss your future (philatelic) plans with him. Phoenix has taken Booth 21 at Stampex in London to enable us to hold viewing for the first Hardy Auction. This auction covers the Georgian Heads and KGV period Commemoratives and has many highly desirable items, most of which have not been on the market for over 30 years.

Phoenix Auctions - Friday 27th and Saturday 28th July 2012
Stampex is being held on 26th-29th September at the Business Design Centre in Islington. We look forward to catching up with our British friends and clients. We have a couple of days free before hand and a spare day after the show and we will be happy to meet with you on those days as well. Please contact our office to schedule an appointment. While we are on the topic of the first Hardy Auction, we can now tell you this is being be held on Friday 2nd November in the RACV Club at 501 Bourke Street, directly across the road from our office. This is during the Spring Racing Carnival so it is a wonderful time to be in Melbourne. While the RACV Club is for members only, they have quality accommodation and we have arranged for auction attendees to be able to stay there. Rooms are limited and early booking will be essential. This is a busy time in Melbourne and it is advisable to book early. Contact our office for a list of nearby Hotels. We will also be conducting viewing for the Hardy Auction in Adelaide on the weekend of 6th & 7th of October during the SA State Congress Exhibition. Viewing in Sydney is also being organised and this has been scheduled for October 15th & 16th at Philas House. The Australian Commonwealth Collectors Club will be holding its monthly meeting on October 15th. The second Hardy Auction will be held on Friday 10th May at the Exhibition Buildings during Australia 2013. This is most appropriate as this auction will be the Roos and Australia 2013 is celebrating the Centenary of the Kangaroo Stamps. We have been appointed official auctioneers for this major event and no other auctions will be held at the Exhibition. The Hardy Auction Catalogues will be sent to anyone who requests a copy, so don’t delay and request that you be added to the list of those wishing to get these must-have catalogues now.

Auction 17 is scheduled for 24th November, and consignments are actively being sought for this sale.

How to Get the Most from The Phoenix Website. While quite a number of our clients make full use of the many benefits our website provides, it is obvious that most do not. So we are taking this opportunity to reintroduce these benefits to you. The homepage provides an introduction to current auction, or highlights of the next auction as appropriate. There are menus on the top left to provide different ways of accessing the auction lots. Within each auction menu there are six submenus: 1. In Lot Order - this provides you with a lot order index to the auction by section headings. Simply click on the section and it will take you straight to that part of the catalogue where you can see each lot in order with its full description and all its images. The estimate and starting price and a box for your bids are also displayed. Wherever the starting price is displayed it is always exactly uptodate. 2. By Country - this provides a cross reference listing by country. You don’t need to go backwards and forwards from the index to the catalogue listing anymore. 3. By Topic - the same as by Country but organised by topic or theme, and there are hundreds of themes. 4. Description Search - this is used for wild card searching through auction lots. This is very powerful and to get the most out of it please email us with search requirements so that we can set it up for you. 5. Image Gallery - this displays every image in lot order. It is a great way to browse an auction. 6. Bulk Bid Entry - this enables you to enter your bids as a batch. So when you have worked out all your bids you can just enter them on this screen rather than finding each lot and entering them one at a time. When you sign on with your Client Code and Password the full benefits are opened up to you. There are 2 entries at the top of the auction submenues. These are: By Collecting Interest - this shows all the lots which match your collecting interests. My Image Gallery - this provides you with just the images for the lots you are interested in. We ask you for your collecting interest so that we can provide you with these quick and easy ways to view just those lots that are likely to be of interest to you. Secondly there are new menus on the top right. These will vary from person to person and can include any of the following:1. My Details - this is where you change your details and preferences 2. My Auction 14 Bidsheet - this is the most important screen we have. It appears the instant you enter a bid and it allows you to manage all you bids from the one screen. It always shows the exact status of all your bids. 3. My Auction 14 Vendor Lots - When you are a vendor this screen shows all your lots in this auction with their current status. You always know exactly the situation with your lots. 4. My Mail Register - this shows you the details of every mailing with dates of mailing, registration numbers, mailing addresses and which invoices are involved. It also tells you whether just an invoice was sent or whether your lots were sent as well. Now you don’t need to call us to see if your lots have been mailed. It is all here for you when you need it. 5. My Invoice Register - this provides the details of every invoice and you can drill down to every lot on every invoice with their full descriptions and images. You always know exactly what is on every invoice. 6. My Receipt Register - this provides a list of every consignment we have received from you. It shows you every lot from each consignment with its full description and images, what auction it was sold in and if it has not been sold what auction it is in. When you have large consignments spread over multiple auctions it is just the screen to enable you to keep track of everything.

My Auction 14 Bidsheet. As we said earlier My Auction 14 Bidsheet is the most important part of the website when you have placed bids in the auction, because it provides everything you need to manage your bidding. With this screen you can change your bids, add limits to ensure you don’t overspend, enter Credit Card details or other special instructions. And it always shows you the current status of your bids. The lot is highlighted when you have the top bid so it is easy to see the current situation with your bids. As well as being able to modify your bids there is a +5% button which increases your bid to 5% above the current starting price. At the bottom of this webpage there is also a field to globally increase all your bids by any percentage amount. Very useful when your bids are all way below the starting price or you want to give yourself that extra level of safety. The website is there to help you get the most when dealing with Phoenix Auctions. We hope you take a little time to use it to your advantage. Remember that we are always happy to help if you have a problem or questions.
Terms and Conditions: These are found on the rear of your printed bidsheet and on the Phoenix website. At this auction Buyer’s commission is 15% ( plus GST.)

HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM OUR CATALOGUE
[These notes are offered as a guide to understanding the information given as symbols.] 1. 2.
3.
4.
5. 6. 7. 8.
Firstly, we have the lot number. If it has a P after the lot number then ithe lots is illustrated in the catalogue. All lots have at least 1 illustration on our website, and many will have multiple illustrations. The second column contains a symbol, which represents the item(s) in the lot: ** Mint, unmounted o.g. * Mint, mounted o.g. V Used, Very fine. F Used, Fine G Used, Good H Used, Heavy. U Used,quality unspecified W Unused, no gum D Piece Cover, card or Postal Stationery S Stamp (“Postmarks” lots) * The third column gives an overall quality assessment for the lot, from ‘A’ to ‘D’. The same standard applies to mint and used stamps, to covers, postal stationery, literature etc. An item graded ‘A’ is very fine; it has no faults. ‘B’ items are fine and may have minor imperfections. A ‘C’ item will exhibit obvious faults. Items in poor condition are rated ‘D’. Occasionally, an item in truly superb condition will be rated ‘A+’. This grading is used sparingly and is not applied to modern material, which one would normally expect to be in very fine to superb condition. An otherwise very fine item which has a subsidiary problem may be allocated an ‘A-’. This may be a stamp with writing or a hinge remainder on the reverse. A cover may have a receiver’s endorsement on the face. The halves of a letter card may be stuck together. A book may have a previous owner’s notations. Whether this factor makes the item an ‘A-’ or ‘B’ is a matter of degree. The fourth column is relevant to perforated stamps, and also to lots listed under the sub-heading ‘Postmarks’. For perforated stamps, this column gives a grading for both centring and perforations. The letter ‘A’ to ‘D’ relates to centring. ‘A’ stamps are very well centred; ‘B’ stamps are slightly off-centre; ‘C’ stamps are significantly off-centre, and may have the perforations slightly into the design; ‘D’ stamps are badly off-centre, with the perforations well into the design. [NB: These gradings are the same for all perforated issues, whether Australian Decimals, De La Rue Colonial keyplates or 19th Century American issues. However, it should be understood that for many issues poor centring is the norm. Thus ‘C’, and even ‘D’, gradings should be expected and accepted. For such issues a ‘B’ stamp will be above-average and an ‘A’ stamp will be considered an exceptional copy.] Following the letter ‘A’ to ‘D’ is a number ‘1’ to ‘4’. A stamp with all perforations intact is ‘1’. One or two short perfs, or normal rough perforations, will drop the grading to ‘2’. More notable perforation problems such as the perfs down one side being trimmed will result in a ‘3’ grading. A stamp with major perforation faults will be a ‘4’. [NB: A stamp graded ‘A1’ is well-centred with all perforations intact. In many cases, particularly with modern issues, this is the norm. However, for many issues, ‘B2’ or even ‘C3’ may be normal and quite acceptable.] For lots listed under the sub-headings “Postmarks” and “Ship/Paquebot Markings”, this column gives a grading for quality of the strike, and completeness. Quality is graded from ‘A’ (very fine) to ‘D’ (poor). Completeness is graded from ‘1’ (complete) to ‘5’ (identifiable only). ‘+’ is used for superb strikes; ‘-’ is used for postmarks which are lightly struck, a little doubled, or otherwise a bit short of the mark. The 5th column contains the general description of the of the lot and should be self-evident with one exception. When a catalogue value is extrapolated the value is followed by a ↕, e.g. $2000↕. Typical extrapolations are 40% of the catalogue value for hinged mint when the catalogue only provides values for MUH, 200% for MUH when the catalogue value is for mint hinged. The following notes apply specifically to postmark description. Whenever possible postmarks will be described in full, except that the top portion of a postmark is only spelt out when it differs from the post office name or requires some clarification. Bracketed shaded text within a description indicates that these characters cannot be read, while greyed characters are hard to read or are only partly present, as is the case when part of the postmark is on the edge of a stamp. Very large or small letters are represented by large and small fonts respectively; small fonts are particularly used to indicate the presence of small nylon wheels in the datestamp. The following example illustrates these points: '[POST] OFFICE/21DE86/GARAH'. For postmark lots the condition of the postmark is the most important aspect of our descriptions. Minor defects in the stamp or cover are mentioned only when the value of the item is significant. Naturally, major defects will always be described. The symbols in the second, third and fourth columns, and the illustrations of lots, form part of the lot description. The last column is the estimate. The reserve is almost always 75% of the estimate and bids below the reserve will not be considered. No GST is added to the hammer price. The vendors have accepted responsibility for any tax payable. We use the following standardised abbreviations: o.g. original gum opt(d) overprint(ed) d/s datestamp cds circular datestamp h/s handstamp mss manuscript; handwritten ERD earliest recorded date LRD latest recorded date o/o opened-out RLabel registration label M/S(s) miniature sheet(s) PPC picture postcard impt imprint mtd mounted provl provisional wmk watermark LDL large dateline (postmarks) SDL small dateline (postmarks) TLC,TRC,LLC,LRC Top Left Cnr, Top Right Cnr, Lower Left Cnr, Lower Right Cnr
