Historics’ relies on the i-bidder technology to offer overseas clients and prospective buyers who can’t come to the auction a possibility to engage, with the project debuting at the inaugural sale on June 2, which will feature a list of 64 special cars.
“During the sale, prospective buyers will see on screen a picture of each lot, just as they would in person at the auction, whilst a live audio feed keeps prospective purchasers up to speed on current bids in real time. Bidding the current asking price is just a one-click process with each live bid made via i-bidder.com, relayed directly to the auctioneer. In a further fillip to overseas bidders, the i-bidder system allows users to viewLot values in their local currency,” stated the press release, detailing the on-line bidding process.
“Attending in person remains the best and most exhilarating way to buy at auction, but we recognise that there are increasing numbers of prospective buyers, not all of whom can get to our sales at Brooklands, said Edward Bridger-Stille," Historics’ Auction Director. “By offering online bidding, we hope to allow as many people as possible the opportunity to sample even a small part of what buying a fine classic or sports car at auction is all about.”
