    There are plenty of auctions kicking about for free if you look for them. Why should you pay to find out where they are, another scam! As you are a Co Durham lad there is an auction every Wednesday 5.30pm at Newton Aycliffe (viewing all day wed) Mainly rubbish but it's always interesting to see what falls off the back of a wagon!! pm me and I'll dig the address out for you.

    You DONT have to pay to find out where they are, and they are open to anyone, people / companies charging you for the info have simply found out where they are, and are selling you the info, there nothing to do with the police / government etc.

    If anyone is interested i know where the West Yorkshire ones are held, there not the golden goose people think they are though, there mostly full of unclaimed junk and damaged goods, and are usually busy.

    i think on those site mate that you get charged for biding to . so you pay for the item and pay so you can bid on the item. if your going to join make sure you read the small print a friend tells me it cost him a 10er on top of the sale price. i have found e-bay and gum tree to be about the best
    good luck any how mate

    What you don't agree with this as a way of punishing them. 2 weeks full board in the Baharmas is enough to sort out even the worst crim's ain't it ? It's just sircumstances why they took the illegal route IE not paying attention in school and not wonting to have to earn money like the rest of the population and not careing about who's sweet's they pnich . Life is very cruel hold on think I have spoted one of them got him ...

    Amazon.co.uk: government auctions

    more guides than you may care to read at amazon. Nearly 20 years ago I translated the action guide (by Chelekis) into German....that's how I know a little about it.

    Would I bid on one? Nope. To many bad vibes attached, like profitting from others heartache. Pay for the info? NO!! I do know of some people though who have successfully bid on office equipment and felt ok about it, as the company went bust and they thought the auction proceeds would go to the creditors. So what do I know.....
