Mark Barrack, Head of Thainstone Specialist Auctions, said: “We were pleased to see a steady increase in the volume of entries as we head into the summer months, with over 1,800 entries featuring in the auction. This increase in entries demonstrates the continued demand in the market for good quality second hand equipment. Online bidders joined with enthusiasm with 664 bidders registering online throughout the sale. The online platform allows users the flexibility to participate from their chosen location and by reaching a diverse range of bidders we are able to ensure that all goods are exposed to a comprehensive network of buyers and sellers meaning the true value is achieved throughout the auction.

“We encourage businesses to contact our team to discuss marketing their surplus assets, as with continued demand it is a good time to move on underutilised equipment. Our team are available to discuss entries by contacting 01467 623770.”
