Buy vehicles from Mr. Auction

Mr. Auction usually auctions commercial vehicles and passenger cars twice a week at Troostwijk. Every lot has been checked and described by us. You bid at Troostwijk, pay after the award and collect in Alblasserdam, the Netherlands. For export we arrange documents and transport on request.

How bidding works

  1. Register at Troostwijk.

    Bidding is done through your account at Troostwijk Auctions. You do not need an account with Mr. Auction.

  2. Find Mr. Auction's auctions.

    Our auctions are called “Mr. Auction …” in the Troostwijk calendar. The “View the auctions” button takes you straight to the current auction.

  3. Read the lot.

    Each lot shows Mr. Auction's description, the RDW data, the photos and whether the price falls under the margin scheme or is exclusive of VAT.

  4. Bid until closing time.

    The buyer's premium and other charges are shown with the lot.

  5. Award.

    When you are awarded a lot you receive the invoice from Troostwijk Auctions for the hammer price and the buyer's premium, and an email from Mr. Auction with the collection day and what to bring.

Payment

After the award you receive the invoice from Troostwijk Auctions for the hammer price and the buyer's premium. You pay Troostwijk by bank transfer within the period stated on the invoice. Collection is possible as soon as the payment has been received.
