AUCTION CATALOGUE
This auction is being carried out on behalf of the relatives of the late Peter Skinner. On this occasion additional lots will not be accepted on the day. Unless otherwise stated, all items are as seen, and have not been inspected in detail, so no warranty as to them being authentic, complete, or in working order can be implied. Buyers are advised strongly to check that mains operated items comply with current safety standards before connecting to the mains. Unless otherwise stated, no such checks have been carried out on equipment offered at this auction. Buyers should be aware that equipment may have been stored under damp conditions, with the risk of ‘leaky’ transformers which could trip RCCB protected mains supplies, or fail-to-chassis when powered. Equipment may not be adequately earthed, or earth connections may have corroded. Critical power supply components such as electrolytic smoothing capacitors require ‘re-forming’ if stored for extended periods of time, resulting in spectacular failure if not treated accordingly! Some equipment offered in this auction operates at high voltage. Applying power to equipment which has not been dried out properly, or with accumulated dirt or corrosion, can damage the equipment whilst making it potentially hazardous. Those intending to place bids at this auction will be issued with a bidding card before the start. All accounts must be settled by close on the day of the auction. You are advised that some items will carry a reserve price. Getting to Kineton: Kineton is signposted from junction 12 of the M40. Follow the signposted route via Gaydon. The Village Hall is in the centre of Kineton. For those who are unable to travel by car, the nearest railway station is Warwick, from where a taxi can be taken. The distance from Warwick is approximately 12 miles.
