Priority postage:
We do our best to post out items as soon as the balance of the invoice is settled. However, for your peace of mind, we also have a Priority Postage option for you at the payment stage. Priority postage will guarantee that your item is processed and dispatched the same working day as payment is received. Payment must be made by 1pm to qualify for same day dispatch. Payments made after 1pm will be dispatched on the next working day.
We are delighted to be extending out offer of free shipping to all of our customers beyond the New Year. We have taken this opportunity to thank our loyal customers and welcome new with no postage fees for the rest of the year across our Watch, Jewellery and Designer sales.
This is one of multiple savings initiatives we have offered our customers in 2019. Earlier in the year Fellows created our own new bidding platform (Fellows Live), giving bidders the opportunity to bid online for free. A saving of up to 6% compared to some bidding platforms. In September, Fellows offered customers from the USA free shipping on all of our auctions. The initiative proved successful with a surge of online bidders coming in from the United States. Now, we are offering the same service worldwide.
Anyone buying at Fellows through Fellows Live in November, December, and beyond the New Year will potentially be making considerable savings on both postage and online bidding fees. Customers will only have to pay the standard Buyer’s Premium for items purchased.
Stephen Whittaker, Managing Director of Fellows Auctioneers, said: “We have taken this option to give something back to our customers who have been faithful to us during another successful year at Fellows. I hope by offering both free shipping and a bidding platform with no online bidding fees our customers can see that we always aim to put them first. We pride ourselves on customer satisfaction and hopefully this scheme will encourage more bidders in our sales.”
Terms and conditions apply, please see Fellows’ website here for more details on items which will be excluded from free shipping.
Free shipping will not be offered for the Antiques, Silver & Collectables sale or the Online Watches & Watch Accessories sale.
