On Wednesday 19th June, the Agricultural Sales team travelled to Woodovis Farm, Lamerton, Tavistock, PL19 8QT where the annual West Devon Collective auction was being held by kind permission of the Hamilton Family. A total of 51 vendors travelled to the site for the delivery day on the 18th June to deliver their items with almost 500 lots being booked in for our auctioneers to sell.
The sale commenced at 10am with the smaller items available to bidders onsite, along with a second sale starting at 12pm, where online bidding and onsite bidding was available. Unfortunately, due to the poor signal in the area, only visual updates could be made to the prospective online purchasers. Despite this, there were still plenty of bids made online.
The catalogue saw 3,750 views with 128 registered online bidders. A total of 76 bidders were successful and came from across the South West.
Top price went to a 2003 McCormick MC100 4WD Tractor for £11,250 which was purchased by an on-site buyer and is staying local in Tavistock. Trailers saw a top price of £4,550 for a 14’ x 6’6’’ Ifor Williams Flatbed Trailer which was also purchased by an on-site buyer. A 1964 Massey Ferguson 35X 2WD Tractor which had an engine rebuild made £4,050. A very tidy tractor all round.
Overall, we saw a good turnout of bidders at this years West Devon Collective. It was a pleasure to welcome back old and new customers. Once again, thank you to the Hamilton family for allowing the use of their property to hold the auction.
The next West Devon Collective will be held in 2025 with the date awaiting confirmation. We look forward to seeing everyone next year.
