I do not wish to cause trouble but I am aware that there is a fairly strong case appearing against Hampsons Auctions.

If you are selling your P&J it is possible they may contact you and assertively recommend you use their auction services to reduce the effort involved. Given the state of the market at present this may appear like an interesting possibility. Don't let me put you off deciding to do it but I would not recommend doing it with Hampsons.

I watch a YouTube channel called GeoffBuysCars and whilst he is quite coarse on some things he is in the car trade and knowledgable. He became aware of Hampsons as he monitors auctions both for pricing and as a source of cars he buys for traders.

It would appear they will push very hard for consignment and prime a lot but then just put it up with no reserve and let it go. All manner of bad practices being used to withhold money and deposits. I will link to one of the GBC YouTube videos but if you do a search you may find quite a lot of other things about it.

Happy if the mods wish to remove this in case it is considered awkward but thought it important for everyone to be aware as a lot of other less questionable channels do exist.





Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Fair warning I think, I've been following this story for a few weeks and the details are quite alarming.
