Having worked at Epic a lot over the past several years I believe they are WSX in that lot as there has been a pair kicking about there. I think the WS218s went in a separate lot from.what I saw. Was hoping to pick up a cheap pair of F12s myself but it all got a little silly :(

Anyone here pick up anything?

Rather interesting to sign up to a forum and one of the first posts be about a place I spent many years working at!

Those WS218X look like WSX to me.....if that's the case they are far from a bargain at the price they are currently at.

But is it not, Purchase price + 15.5% and then VAT on the lot? So 38.6% on top of sale price?

i.e.

Item Purchased  £100.00
Buyers Premium £15.50

Sub Total £115.50
VAT £23.10
Grand Total £ 138.60


No it's not always VAT on the item, sometimes the item may be VAT free. So they charge the item plus VAT if needed. Then the sellers fees + VAT

I buy from Auctions a lot. 

I sit down with a spreadsheet and work out what each item is worth too me including fees and travel etc. Then I place that bid And shut the window. 

Buying from a auction you have no guarantee it works and no come backs so be a bit sensible. It has too be a bargain to even consider it imho.

Yup, I got a couple of bargains from the collateral of that auction including a PACE DAB tuner and a Philips Amp. Great. I shall be watching EBay for a few days after the auction.

So +35% to sale price.... bargain Confused


20% of which a business should be able to claim back

Nothing of interest for me on this one, was hoping for some more truss, but a) they cant spell truss and b) they only have tri corners (even though its described as quad?).
Did do very well in the Ramco clearout, but that was collection just down the road at Cardington hangers
