Bid not accepted then received invoice for goods
I was recently watching a live audction waiting for the skid steers to come up. I pushed the bid button on an item I didn’t want thinking it would pop up with ‘are u sure u want to bid’ or something similar as I had not placed a bid with pickes before. I was feeling relieved when it popped up with “ your bid was unsuccessful the auction is closed” as the bid is instant with no second chances. I even commented to my husband that was lucky. That afternoon a received an invoice for the item stating I had purchased it. I immediately contacted ...
Read morePickles at Altona and stated my bid wasn’t accepted, I sent screen shots of my account showing I had made no bids. Their manager got back to me the next day stating I had bid therefore I bought the item and if I don’t pay they are keeping the $1000 deposit they had taken from my credit card. I supplied the screenshots of my account showing no bids and he said that’s a different platform, yet this is my pickles account that they took my credit card details from and the $1000. I have had to lodge a credit card dispute to try to get my money back. I am very frustrated as I am adamant my bid was not accepted. Online live bidding with pickles does not seem to be transparent, I would not use their live bidding systemPickles review.
Very helpful staff, very good overall experience. I ended up with a very good plant trailer at a very reasonable price.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us Ron.
We're glad to hear about your bidding experience and we are delighted to hear you are happy with your new trailer.
Very happy with our purchase and the service.
We needed a car urgently and were recommended by our mechanics to go to Pickles because "they only sell good quality cars". We were very impressed with the vast stock of vehicles at Pickles, very happy with the service (bought and drove the car away on the same visit), and over the moon with what we've bought; a near new car at a very discounted price. Thank you Pickles.

Exactly what was claimed and offered.
Everything worked exactly as it should, the goods were exactly as described and pick-up went without a hitch. Now, if only Pickles would trans-ship between depots, then the service would be unbeatable !

Questions & Answers
OK so what is the process
1. Sign in online
2. Read report is this RWC equivalent?
3. Will report inform as to whether or not the vehicle is drive able, or has any mechanical defects?
4. Do you provide warranty? If so how much for how long and does it cover all mechanical defects?
Hi Serana,
Thank you for your question. ...
Read more Yes, the first step would be to sign up to MyPickles. Once you find the asset you like we strongly encourage you to read the condition report, this report is a visual walk around only and isn't a mechanical check, so to answer yours question, No it is not a RWC equivalent. If a fault is known to Pickles then we do detail this in the condition report however with our inspections being visual only not all faults are known if any. Some assets sold do come with a roadworthy and/or existing manufacture warranty, its best to check with the branch or manufacture on a case by case bases. Extended warranty https://www.pickles.com.au/Services/warranty and finance https://www.pickles.com.au/Services/finance are both available at Pickles If you have any more questions you can find a lot of answers via our FAQ's or if you call your local branch they will be more then willing to help https://www.pickles.com.au/about/frequently-asked-questions Best of Luck SamMy elderly mother's car has just written off.
