It's online m8 you only have to viit your PC.

[tigersaw]

Just had a look, some of the bidding is laughable, thats before buyer premium plus tax plus money transfer tax plus plus

For instance, lot 187 - £70 already !!

[peterco]

Do you not have to collect in person ??

Iwasn't going to mention it! Got some bids in myself

[andrewsmith]

TBH with whats coming out the woodwork I wouldn't touch any of the bikes on the book

[danf1234]

Load of ****.

Don't bother!

[Specialone]

I have signed in and keeping my eye on some things.
You cant say its **** when you dont know how much the stuff is gonna go for.
If the arai chasers go for £120 inc taxes and fees then thats an absolute bargain.
Ive got my eye on a couple of bikes as well,to sell on not keep.
They are selling whole displays of accessories inc racking which might be a bargain also.

The premium to auctioneer is 15% plus VAT.

Does that mean 15% + 17.5 on the 15% ... so 17.625% total charge OR does it mean 15% plus 17.5% on total payable so 35.125% charge?

[Biker Biggles]

Dunno.But lot one becomes a very expensive two year old ZX10 if you add both charges on to the £5000 price tag.

[Cymraeg_Atodeg]

it is 17.625% for the auctioneer and 17.5% for the thieving *******s called the government... So, it is final bid + 35.125% on top. So, if end bid was £120 total cost is £162.15

[andrewsmith]

The T&C's of the auction

14. Value Added Tax will be charged on all lots with the exception of Lots 1 – 37B, 39, 951–1650 & those denoted by an asterisk.

15. A Buyer’s Premium of 15% (Plus VAT) will be charged on all lots.

Which is still dirt cheap on most things they are selling, arai chaser for that much is a bargain if you can get one for that much considering i bought my chaser from them for £370.
At the time they had plain ones for £270.

IMO its the batches or larger lots where i think you could make some money, whole racks of goodies, some of the things are worth a punt.

Like i said, im watching a lot of things so will see how they develop.

BTW, they are selling the bikes so you would have comeback to them, not like buying a bike off a dodgy bloke in a pub is it, they must be theirs to sell, doesnt seem like the company that wouldnt check first is it.

[andrewsmith]

If I had the cash I'd buy up a couple of the job lots as you probs make 3 times what you buy it for

[svDaveC]

Notice of this is listed in MCN this week so a fair few will be aware. It looks like you have to collect in person anything you 'win' at auction, with no mention of delivery anywhere. So if you're a distance from Leicestershire the online bidding system's pretty pointless other than for high value items (ie bikes)?

[sauluk]

I'd imagine it'll be VAT on the auction fee itself where it says, auction fee (plus VAT) so say the fee was £10 you'd pay £1.75 VAT on top as well.

[Specialone]

Anyone seen what the stuff went for in the end?
I took a punt on a scorpian end can, bid at £50, ended up costing £67 with all the charges.

I was watching a 08 DRZsm, it went for about £3400 :smt103, bit over priced imo.
6 Givi boxes on a display went for £150 plus charges so that would make somebody some good profit.
A curvy went for £600 plus charges.

Saw the curvy - Someone got a bargin!

Nice one matey ;)

[david-m]

The red curvy is currently in my garage at home tucked between my Falco and RS250. I brought it as a xmas present for my old man. :santa:

Its in very good nick, has sensible extras incl heated grips a rack and a scottoiler. Some things were far too pricey (zx10, DRZ etc)

Nice one, it did look a bargain.
Some things looked really good price wise and some were more expensive than buying from a normal supplier.

[Owenski]

be keeping my eye on some boots for myself for xmas, cheers for the link Bre.

Whos local and willing to collect and post them on for a few extra quid, they sort of loose their value if I have to drive all that way to pick them up.

If I win anything I'll be going to pick it up. If they let me have yours I'll post on for you :-)

I picked up my scorpian can this morning from -ralph- who kindly picked it up for me.
Very pleased with it, never been on a bike and if i can get it to fit ill be well pleased.

[AndyBrad]

if anyone could pick some bits up for me please feel free to pm me and ill drop ya a couple of quid for your troubbles.

[SIII]

Just got me an Arai Chaser Force for £92.00!!! Should be about £107 including charges.:D
Luckily my sister lives just down the road so she can collect but means I wont get it till Xmas :smt088

:santa:

[Lissa]

Shoei XR1100...£57.50 including charges :D

Was needing a new crash helmet, so happy as larry! :p

[brennan]

I got a pair of SIDI B2 for just shy of £100 including fees, about half price. Bought a mate a pair of SMX-R's for the same price, he couldnt find them anywhere for less than £180.

Not too shabby considering we both needed boots.

Noticed a few items were very close to RRP, so with the fees they must have gone over?!
