DID YOU KNOW?

The majority of people have never attended an auction or sold or purchased anything on auction!

WHY?

Most people are scared that if they scratch their nose or lift their hand by accident, they will end up buying something they don't want. That only happens in Hollywood movies! Sellers are scared that their goods will be sold for a very cheap price. False, our job is to get the best possible price, why, the more you get, the more we earn on commission!

WHY SELL YOUR GOODS ON AUCTION?

It is the best way to ensure that you achieve the best price for your goods. You have all the second hand dealers as well as the private buyers competing for your goods at the same time. It's also safer, no strangers coming into your house, no waiting at home for a buyer who never arrives.

WHY BUY ON AUCTION?

You pay cost price and not retail price! You are buying goods for the same price that dealers are paying for them. Which means you pay cost price, you are not paying mark up prices which include profit!

We auction on Wednesday – You receive payment on Friday!

Free collection service (Terms & Conditions apply)

WHAT DO WE SELL?

We sell almost anything. From a single item, to an entire household. Furniture, appliances, kitchenware, ornaments, paintings, etc. If it's in your house or business, we can sell it.

GOT ANTIQUES, COLLECTABLES OR MILITARIA?

We hold specialised antique auctions every two months.
