Good morning, all. Its Saturday 30th May and we hope you are ready to join us.
Welcome to sale day. I hope you are all ready and looking forward to this two-day event here at A.S.H. Auctions. There is just a couple of hours left now before lot number 1 goes under the hammer, so I hope you are all getting yourselves ready to rock and roll.
Again, I thank you for the interest shown in this sale ,we have a vast number of new registrations, emails, pre bids, commission bids, and questions, which we have tried to answer to the best of our knowledge. Our ever-growing advertising campaign has brought many new customers to our site, and we welcome you all and hope some of you will come to the sale room so we can attach a face to a bidding number.
Just to remind you again guys that estimates are there to give you an idea what we think the items will sell for. We apply these estimates even when there are no reserves set Hey and as you know from previous sales ,we can be way out sometimes. This also applies to the starting bids again set to where we think the items should start ,but all these things are not set in stone and so when bidding live you decide what you want to pay and bid accordingly. That is another reason we say that bidding live is your best policy and makes auction sales more exciting.
The two live bidding platforms for this sale are Platform One: www.easyliveauction.com and Platform three: www.ashauctions.co.uk .
You can still register and view the catalogue for this week-ends sale ,just click either of the two links below or copy and paste them into your browser's address bar.

This week-ends sale will again be conducted from our home office in Blythe Bridge, not from the saleroom which means no one will be there this morning or tomorrow morning.
Members of team A.S.H. today will again be Maria who will be monitoring the sale which includes sorting out all registrations ,checking on the sound and vision ,answering any further questions you may have, and sorting pick up slots out as they come in.
Jim is not with us today so again I will be running Platform one: www.easyliveauction.com as well as being your one and only auctioneer for the day and monitoring bids from Platform three: www.ashauctions.co.uk , pre- bids and of course commission bids. So just be patient and try to make your bids clearly and quickly and I will try my best to keep up with these two amazing platforms.
Tomorrow Jim will be back with us, and he will run Platform one: www.easyliveauction.com.
Just a reminder that we start to broadcast at 9.50am with the sale commencing at 10.00am. on both sale days.
We will take a five-minute break after lot No 279 today and after lot 866A tomorrow. There are a total of 1,200 lots in the sale, so it is going to be a busy couple of days so help us and yourselves and get your bids in as quickly as possible.
