Auction

We host regular online Auctions on this website. There are usually around 100 interesting lots, look out for our next auction which we hope to have live in September.

To bid in the auction, please email the Auctioneer with the lot numbers you would like to bid on, your bids, and your name, address and phone number. By submitting a bid you accept that you have read and agreed to the Auction Rules.

To submit material for a future auction – you must be a SACS member to do so – please email the Auctioneer.

If you want to be notified about future Auctions, please submit your contact details so that we can advise you directly when every new Auction is ready.


You can read the Auction Rules here.


Please note: Only SACS members may bid in our Auctions or submit material for sale.

If you want to bid in the Auction you must become a member of SACS at £10 per year. This is not a lot of money given the cost of travelling to shows like Stampex in London, where the material on sale may not be as good as what you can see and buy here from dedicated South Africa collectors and specialists. Ten pounds spent here will entitle you to attend meetings, receive emailed PDF copies of The Springbok magazine and participate in our Zoom meetings and auctions. And more! Join SACS now …
