i overheard someone the other day talking about an auction they had been to somewhere in sheffield that sells items that have been repossessed - apparently they have some really good items that sell for cheap prices like TV'c , hifi's and many more things of value at cheap prices -

does anyone know how i can find out more information about these auctions?? or if there are any in Sheffield and where they are??

That site looks less like a governmet site than any I've seen. I'd be very wary!

There is an auction of such property at Bawtry (motor) Auctions.

Or at least there used to be.!

I seem to remember it was once a month, but i may be wrong with the frequency of them.

You will have to ring them to find out exactly what the current situation is. I dont know if what was property just from the Doncaster area or county wide.

However what I do remember was that the "goods" were generaly poor quality. No better than you would find at a car boot and more expensive when the auction house puts their costs on top.

Motorcycle Auctions (stolen/recovered etc) are held every third wednesday in Bawtry, I rang them up, and it is touch & go wether they are having any more, as they aren't getting enough bikes in!

Surely thats a good thing right? lol
