THE TABLES CONTAIN A LOT OF INFORMATION -THAT'S WHY THE ABBREVIATIONS ARE A BIT LONGWINDED!

 TO REDUCE THE COMPILATION TIME  REPEAT VALUES  FOR SINGLE ROW  ENTRIES ARE OMITTED WHEN UNNECESSARY.

THE RETAIL SELLING VALUES ARE GENUINE BUT ONLY A GUIDE AS THERE IS MUCH PRICE VARIANCE . TO CORRECTLY BALANCE THE TOTALS, THE TABLES ASSUME

1 ITEM AND 1 BID FOR TOTAL ITEMS{TI} AND TOTAL BIDS{TB}.

THE PUBLIC AND POSTAL AUCTION {PA} ROWS ASSUME 1 FOR {TI} AND 1 FOR {TB} AND SHOW AN ESTIMATED PRICE[USUALLY REALISING +/- 5% OF ESTIMATE}.
