HIGH-VALUE ITEM HANDLING POLICY

(Recommended for £5,000+ works)

High-Value Works – Handling & Security

For items valued at £5,000 or above, Atlas Rare Books applies enhanced handling procedures to ensure security and preservation.

These may include:

  • Additional condition documentation prior to dispatch
  • Photographic recording
  • Signature-required delivery
  • Fully insured courier services
  • Restricted delivery options where necessary

In certain circumstances, we may:

  • Request identity verification
  • Confirm delivery address details
  • Require bank transfer payment rather than card payment

These measures are implemented solely to protect both purchaser and seller in high-value transactions.

For works of exceptional value, in-person viewing or hand delivery may be arranged by prior agreement.
