Some content of this manual is being considered for archiving. If there is content you use regularly, please email [email protected] to let us know as soon as possible.
An auctioneer needs a special licence to sell
- firearms and ammunition less than 100 years old
- gaming machines that provide monetary prizes
- drugs and patent medicines
- stuffed animals that are less than 100 years old.
You should confirm that your auctioneer is licensed to sell such goods before you ask the auctioneer to remove them.
Items over 100 years old are classed as antiques, so a special licence is not required.
