Ildhafn library auction

Submitted by William de Cameron on April 5, 2014 - 12:56pm

The Ildhafn council has agreed that the time has come to dispose of our Baronial library.  This is being done by way of an auction, which will conclude at the Collegium on April 12th.

  • Please email David (arts@ildhafn.lochac.sca.org) to place a bid, or come along to the Collegium.
    • Email bidding will close on Friday evening (April 11th) after which you will still have a chance to bid on the items at the event.
    • The table below will be updated every couple of days with the current winning bid (amount + who)
    • (For those who have website access, please do not edit this page yourselves to place a bid - someone may have already emailed in a bid equal to or higher than yours)
  • Bids will be accepted in units of 50c.
  • You may bid $0 for an item.
  • Bidding at the Collegium will be by writing a higher bid (and your name) on the bit of paper accompanying each item. The auction will close some time during the afternoon of the Collegium (time to be announced at the event).
  • Some items are grouped together in the table below in the Author and Bid columns; you are bidding on the set.
  • Items must be collected at the end of the Collegium (by you or someone you've asked to pick up the items for you).
  • Payment will be by internet banking by April 19th

The bookcases from the library are also part of the auction; the bookcases will need to be collected from Al & Mel's house if you win the auction for them. Photos can be found here. The bookshelves aren't high quality, they were originally from the Warehouse.

 

Some of the books are a bit out of date, or better sources have become available since we put them in the library. If you have questions about the books, please email David (arts@ildhafn.lochac.sca.org).
