We’ve been using BPI Auctions for many years to both buy and sell woodworking equipment, and the service has always been excellent. We deal with Richard each time and can’t fault the support he provides. He makes the whole auction process professional, straightforward, and quick, with no issues at all. Whenever we’ve had questions or needed advice, he’s always been just a phone call away. We would highly recommend BPI Auctions and Richard’s outstanding service.

I’ve been a long time lurker on the auction site, just having a look. It wasn’t until I saw an auction I liked that I was bidding seriously, unfortunately I didn’t hit the reserve. I emailed in and was in communication with Claire who helped me find out the reserve and she reached out to the vendor to see if they’d like to sell at reserve. She did a stellar job and managed to secure some additional lots too. These were paid and collected very quickly without too much bother. All in all an excellent experience made perfect. Thank you Claire for making my first auction as smooth as possible!

David Ward, very professional and explained everything

Dealt with a professional gentleman, Dave Ward, who was very helpful explaining how everything works at all stages. As soon as our woodworking was shown for auction, it was bid on and bought. The gentleman paid BPI and they pay us 14 days later. It has already been collected and all went so smoothly. Thanks to Dave, we are looking for other items no longer needed. Would recommend to others as everything went so smoothly. Thank you David Ward. Regards Cheryl Mason

I recently used BPI as a selling outlet and was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The process was smooth and professional from start to finish, and the staff went above and beyond to make everything clear and straightforward; particularly Kevin. Their helpfulness and guidance made all the difference, and I couldn’t have asked for better support or a better sale day result! Highly recommended!
