No, not mine. The auctioneers are happy for prospective buyers to phone them to arrange viewings or discuss ‘ball park’ prices etc, so give them a call and they’ll pass on the vendors details.

If it had been closer maybe would it looks fairly tidy in photos Although used to work down at Eccles could have come down a run for nostalgia

 

[PSQ]

Eccles? Mersington by any chance?

 

[manfromhill]

Every bugger worked at Merrington at some point, well apart from me right enough.

That would be an education

Bizarre way to do a machinery sale,surely online auction is far more transparent,there were a couple of lots I might have bid on but won't bother now.

 

[Colin]

I sent a heap of stuff to Pentland auctions in Kirriemuir just before lockdown, he ended up doing it all online and it went pretty well.

Under different management though ! There were quite a few went there for sandwich year and I don't think the accommodation was much to write home about.

I spend a lot of time along there in my school days, my friends dad worked their and I was just along the road, you're right about the accommodation,

There are platforms like Ibidder and Proxibid etc that can be used by independent auctioneers, but I understand this sale was organised at relatively short notice to replace their regular ‘Kelso Racecourse collective sale’. I guess they’re just adapting to ‘interesting times’.

Would a live timed online auction not be a better bet for sellers? I personally hate the tendering system.

My thoughts are the same,tendering doesn't seem very fair to purchasers, could end up paying more than necessary

Its a royal pain to have to fill in ur detsils every bid

Wtf forklift for sale and attachments separate fair enough but who wants to win a bucket and lose out on the forklift.
Crazy way to sell.
