An Auction by Any Name!

Bedlam - comment

Here's something novel.

Have you ever seen a sitcom where the vendor drives the bid DOWN and thought it comic and ridiculous, think again!

Auctioneer Ben Kloppers, in New Zealand, will REDUCE the asking price of a property in $5000 decrements until the first punter raises their hand .... and secures the sale.

An announcement for the bizarre auction states, "This is an absolute statement of intent to sell."

And it's not alone, it’s only part of a variety of outlandish strategies to entice buyers, along with the proposal of holidays or a car, to be offered free with the house purchase.
