When a Bidder participates in an auction of Poly Auction (Hong Kong), Bidder shall first pay the auction deposit before collecting the paddle. The amount of the auction deposit will be announced by Poly Auction (Hong Kong) before the Auction Date. If the Bidder fails to buy the Lot and he does not owe Poly Auction (Hong Kong) any sum, then that auction deposit shall be returned to the Bidder in full without interest within 14 working days after the end of the auction. If the Bidder succeeds in buying a Lot, the auction deposit shall automatically be converted to the payment of the Purchase Price of the Lot.
If the Bidder succeeds in bidding registration, Bidder can collect the paddle with their valid ID document before the auction begins.
Buyers may bid by telephone during the course of the auction. Telephone bidding must be arranged in advance of the sale date by submitting the duly filled and signed absentee bid registration form, based on ID document.
