Bidding advice
You can place bids either under the lot image on the main auction page or on the right side of the individual lot page.
Placing a Maximum Bid
Use the "Set your bid limit" button on the left side of the bidding panel to enter the highest amount you're willing to bid on a lot. Our system will then automatically raise your bid in set increments if you’re outbid, up to your maximum. If someone bids above your set limit, we’ll notify you by email so you can choose whether to increase your bid.
Placing a Single Bid
Alternatively, place a single bid by selecting the button on the right side of the bidding panel. The button displays the amount needed for the next increment. For example, if the current highest bid is £50.00, the button will show "+ £55.00" (reflecting a £5.00 increment).
Incremental Bidding Explained
Our system increases bids based on preset increments, as shown in the table below, whether you set a maximum bid or make a single bid.

Balmenach
A malt distillery in Speyside that is part of the Scotch whisky holding of ThaiBev through its subsidiary, Inver House Distillers. The distillery's output is highly-prized by blenders and has never been marketed as its own single malt brand.
Mark & Manny's Malts
Also known as MMM, this independent bottler is based in Belgium and was founded by friends, Mark Dermul & Imanuel Dijk, in 2016. Very much a labour of love, the pair release themed annual batches of just four single cask bottlings of various whisky types and some other spirits as well.
