Buying at Auction
There is no need to register for our auctions. If you are the successful bidder
one of our sales staff will accompany you to the administration office and complete
the sale. You should bring with you your driver's licence showing your current address.
Arrive at the auction in plenty of time to inspect the cars. Most of the cars you
will see will be available for auction. If you wish a car to be started please ask
one of friendly floor staff for assistance. For insurance and legal reasons we cannot
allow you to test drive a car - the cars are owned by many people including fleet,
leasing and finance companies.
The cars are lined up in our under cover auctions in the order in which they will
be auctioned. All vehicles have reserves, occasionally the auctioneer will announce
that the vehicle will be sold with 'no reserve'.
Before the auction starts the auctioneer will read out the terms and conditions
of the auction. Please note that if you bid and you are the winning bidder you are
entering into a legally binding contract to purchase the car.
Bidding
The auctioneer usually asks for an opening bid close to the value of the car and
may reduce this asking price until a bid is received. Once bidding starts the bids
usually increase by $200.
To bid simply raise your hand in the view of the auctioneer until your bid has been
acknowledged.
If a final bid is below the 'reserve price', the auctioneer will call 'submit' or
'referred' this means that whilst the vehicle is not sold the auctioneer will negotiate
between you and the selling vendor in order to achieve a sale.
Paying for your vehicle
The final price to be paid is the bid price (or negotiated price) plus the 'buyers
premium'. You will be given an invoice and be asked to pay a minimum deposit of
$500 with the balance due in 48 hours by EFT, bank cheque or cash. Cheques are not
accepted. You may use your credit card for the deposit but not the balance.
Finance
Flexible and competitive finance from major lenders can be arranged via the auction,
subject to normal lending criteria.
Prompt pre-approval is generally possible, so you will be able to attend the auction
and bid with confidence.
Simply include your requirements when making an enquiry on any vehicles of interested listed here.

do once you have purchased your vehicle

local Roads & Traffic Authority within 14 days. Stamp duty will be payable.
