1st Fleet Auction - Stage 2

As with the previously-reported auction in Melbourne, the auctions in Brisbane, Adelaide and Sydney were judged a success, with close to all of the 680 lots on offer finding new buyers.

"The national auction program went extremely well with strong crowds at all of the auctions, with hundreds of bidders also participating in the auctions online," a Manheim spokesperson said.

"Over 95% of the items offered were sold with the balance still under offer, returning significant dollar values which met or exceeded sellers' expectations."
