    Registration and Bidding Opens: Saturday 7th May at 10am

    • Viewing - Monday 9th May - Wednesday 11th May, 9am - 5pm. This is by appointment ONLY and can be arranged online – HERE.
    • Buyers Fees - We charge a Buyer’s Premium of 12% (minimum £150) plus vat on the hammer price of each lot purchased.
    • Vehicles - all vehicles on offer are physically with us at our Easters Court premises so we have inspected both the vehicles themselves and the associated paperwork. Please note - this is a timed-online auction and although we aim to have viewing capabilities, this will depend on the latest Government restrictions. The Brightwells’ site at Easters Court is closed to all visitors without appointments until further notice.
    • Registration Deposit - A deposit reservation (like a hotel/hire car booking) of £2,500 is needed to participate in the Auction. Please note that all deposit reservations are managed through Sagepay - no deposits will be taken over the phone. Unsuccessful purchasers should note that refunds of deposits can take approximately 3 - 5 days, you will get an email at the time we have processed the release from our side and please check with your bank to ensure they do not have a longer return policy.
    Tips on Bidding - Register early and don’t bid late! And please note the following:
    o Bids cannot be withdrawn at any time. All bids are contractually binding.
    o If your bid has the value up to or at the reserve, the bid will be taken at it's maximum to the reserve.
    o If the lot has no reserve or if your bid is forced above the reserve by other bidders, then our increment system comes into play and you will see what the next minimum bid can be on the bid page. If your maximum bid is above the increment, the bid will go to the increment, unless someone thereafter forces the bid up to your maximum. Bidders cannot place a bid with the same maximum that someone else has already placed, so a warning will tell you if your bid is the same. You may pay less than your maximum bid if you win, therefore, depending on other bidders.
    o Further tips on bidding in this auction can be found in our Guide To Timed Auctions HERE.
    • Reserve Prices and Provisional Sales - Some lots may have reserve prices and the final highest bid on a lot may be subject to acceptance by the seller, if the reserve is higher. The highest final bidder on a lot is contractually obliged to stand by that bid, if it is accepted by the seller.
    • Warranties and Descriptions - Items in this auction are all sold as seen and without warranty. There is no guarantee of condition, working condition or description. No items have been tried or tested for sale. Volumes, where stated, are approximate and are not guaranteed. Condition Reports are for guidance only and do not provide any mechanical/electrical guarantees. Details of the vehicles offered are taken from the V5C.
    • Invoicing and Payments - All items must be paid for within 48 hours of invoicing. Your deposit will be lost if you fail to pay for a lot. Payment will be taken by bank transfer or debit card, terms will be sent with the email invoice. We do not accept cash.
    • Collection/Delivery of Purchases -
    o Collection by appointment only.
    o Hand washing, wearing gloves and hand sanitising is essential when coming onto our sites.
    o Social distancing measures must be in place and adhered to (2 metre distancing).
    o Items that have been handled must be wiped down for collection.
    o The collection point for items will be outside and customers must not come into any buildings.
    o All collections and deliveries will be handled in a ‘contactless manner’, with vehicles undergoing monitored quarantine periods and cleaning of handles and main controls etc.
    • Storage - Items can be stored with us free of charge for one week from the sale date, after which we will charge £15 plus VAT per item per day. You will need to insure your goods from the point of purchase, by law.
    Health & Safety – When customers come on site, we expect them to read our signage, listen to social distancing and cleaning requirements outlined by our staff and to abide by our risk assessments/notices. Failure to do so will result in being asked to leave our site, as we take the safety of our customers and staff to be our highest priority.
