FTMTA Announce Second Auction
The FTMTA Executive Council has agreed that the Association will hold a second FTMTA Farm Machinery Trade Auction in early spring. The auction will take place at Punchestown Event Centre on Saturday, February 24th and follows on from the first such event held at the end of September when lots attracting a hammer price of nearly €1.2 million were sold.
As before the auction will facilitate the sales of lots coming from FTMTA member firms only; lots from other sources will not be considered. The auction will accept lots from all FTMTA member firms including retail dealers, manufacturers and distributors. The first such auction attracted a high degree of interest from potential purchasers both at home and abroad with some 2,500 people attending on the sale day and it is hoped to build further on this.
Viewing will be open at Punchestown, which has proved to be a highly suitable venue for such an event, on the day prior to the auction, Friday, February 23rd. Full details, including photographs, of most lots will be available online in advance of the auction. Bidding will be possible onsite, online or through a pre bid service.
