There will NOT be an auction this coming Saturday, due to the various flooding issues people have had. The auction room is flood-free at the moment although Chelmer Street resembled the River Nile the other night.

The good news is that the draft software for going online to Oamaru and the rest of the world will be live very soon, i.e., by the end of July.

We remain packed out with hundreds of prime quality items.

Be in touch soon. Gerry Slessenger
