Went to look at a mower today that was listed on kijiji, but of course it wasn’t mentioned that it was being sold on Auction Time 🙄. Either way it was in good shape and is what we’re looking for. Have any of you bought stuff off Auction Time? How was it? Just took a quick look but sounds like a 10% buyer fee? Anything to know of? Have never bought off Ritchie but have bought off a Fraser Auction online once and it went good, assume this is somewhat similar?

Auctiontime platform is pretty nice. I've bought and sold off it. Some items have a buyer's premium, some don't so you have to watch that.
You just have to keep in mind that it's simply a digital consignment sale. Be sure to inspect items or bid accordingly. Hard to believe but some people are less then honest with their descriptions.
I've got a few good buys and got a couple educational experiences too.

You still have yours for sale? I was thinking about you yesterday and if you still had it! lol. The one we looked at was a 10 foot batwing Woods, can’t remember the model but it was good and heavy, we need to get the edges of our fields pushed back and look after the RM’s roads and ditches, seems like they don’t feel that’s necessary anymore. 😡

Yes, I still have mine. It is a 15 ft John Deere, come take a look at it, if you have time.

Don’t think I’ll need your mower now skfarmboy, ended up “winning “ the auction on the one I looked at. The auction seemed to work alright, I never used the max bid option, just the regular bid so had to keep an eye on it for the last little bit. Will see how the rest of the process goes as far as payment and such but don’t really see any issues there.
Should have bid on a swath roller, looked good in the pictures, last I looked it was $200 , I just replaced two tires, bearings and seals on one of ours for probably double that.😔
