    I can't see what is wrong about an auction for bicycles?

    They run a lot of them. Mostly bikes recovered by police etc that are never claimed.

    Merin Auctions had a great Auction last Wednesday..... cars were great value, they are very much in business

    You must have been at a different auction to me then. There was very little value to be had, most cars made more than what they'd make in a private sale

    The last time there was value was in 2009. I went to the machinery auction next door a good few times. Nothing there now only junk.

    I would urge people to be very careful in dealing with Merlin, i have found them to be nothing more than back street car dealers. They promote the fact they are members of S.I.M.I don't be fooled by this it means nothing that organisation have no powers over their members as in my case they were very embarrased by Merlin's behaviour. I have requested that Merlin be expelled from S.I.M.I as they are rogue traders.

    Its about being lied to by Merlin and where caught out they fitted a cheap windscreen causing problems and told me they had FrankKeans BMW check it, this dealership have told me my motor was never with them. All i'm saying is be very careful dealing with them they are nothing but cowboys
