    Hi all,

    I am having a little difficulty. My father won a bid on the diesel 2010 BLUE Suzuki SX4 at ep mooney auctions for 12000e and was 100% on the price and happy, considering the forecourts market value of this car.

    however, there seems to be a confusion. The Auctioneer appears to think that the hammer price was 13000e. Now we are certain that this is not the case. Why they do not have recorder or video in place is beyond me? That much cash being turned over and no written or recorded agreeement except verbal??? And the law probably will favour the auctioneer!!

    I wonder has anyone else the same issue with eauctions???

    Auctioneers could just ask for another 1000euro and most would not contest this thinkng it was their mistake???

    They seem like a one man operation if you ask me!!!!

    Now maybe it`s just an auctioneers mistake but who knows?

    Did anyone else recorded the price for the diesel Suzuki BLUE SX4 2010? Only blue one in the auction!! This would really help me out. Auctioneer may settle at our price if he finds another person who saw the hammer price.

    Thanks and I hope you can help.

    was it 12,000 that he bid? surely there are further fees and costs on top of that

    I think he's been very clear that the auctioneer has been disputing the hammer price before auctioneers fees.

    Jesus that's great, they have no proof of the agreed price! Just get a couple of people to say the hammer price was 10000 instead!

    bad news mate, the hammer price was 13k. in fairness to the auctioneers, they have 2 guys up at the top recording the prices and everyone's radioed up to each other so i'd be surprised if they got it wrong.

    they only make another 50euro from that 1k you're disputing with them so it's not as if they really care about the 50 quid but if they got it wrong for their client (the liquidator) well, then they tarnish their reputation so it's in their best interest to record everything accurately.

    Hi all,

    First can i thank you all for your speedy replies. I posted this up to try and get a fair overview of the arguement as best as possible for my father and mother. I have Just read the replies and phoned some trades people who attended the auction last week.

    - comments on boards heard 13000 and forecourt car buyer/seller in Dublin heard 12000 along with my Dad and Mother. It appears to be stalemate.

    Having personally not met with the director or seen the auction in full operation but having listened to my father since the debate ended in agreement, they are a very good business and well operatored, so at least they are an honest company. They have come to an agreement and both parties are content with this(or else there would be no agreement).

    I would like to stress to any auctioneer that in this century where kids are using the internet, mobile phones and computer games, that they splash out and buy a video recording system and an audible recording system to back up on a verbal agreement. It can only help the matter and provide real proof for both parties.

    Thank you all very much for your help guys

    If your Mum and Dad and that other seller heard 12k then I surmise they must've just missed the next call of 13k. Very easy done but I can guarantee you that 13k was the hammer price because there were 3 other people on my row all writing down the prices and we were constantly checking each other's notes. We were also only 5-6 rows from the auctioneer and had a giant speaker not too far from us so if your Dad came to an agreement for less that 13k then tell him he should be happy in the knowledge that he is not getting screwed.

    Anyway, only posting this as it comes across as though your Dad is still a bit miffed. Hope he enjoys the car. They are a superb little machine and well built. Happy motoring!

    That really pisses me off, how many creditors did they leave hanging, yet it's no problem to buy back your old stock with cash. I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.
