How to make an offer

Offers can only be made via the online auction in the form of a bid once the bidding window has opened. No offers will be accepted outside of the auction process.

Once a sale has been agreed (STC) and a price agreed then no further price negotiation will take place. This sale price is fixed at the winning auction price and the buyer honoured to pay it. Any subsequent attempt by the buyer to contact the vendor direct to renegotiate on price would hold the buyer in breach of our terms. Should the buyer withdraw then they may have to forfeit the reservation fee. Please read the buyer terms and faq’s on the site for more details.
