This so called auction house withholds important information acting as if your highest bid has won the auction when in fact, they fail to disclose that there is a reserve price and that their vendors hold firm prices on the products that go to auction.

Misleading or Deceptive Conduct is when a business makes claims or representations that are likely to create a false impression in consumers as to the price, value or quality of goods or services on offer. This is against the law.

It’s also against the law for businesses to make false claims or misleading representations about their goods or services. This means businesses are not allowed to make statements that are incorrect or likely to create a false impression.

It doesn’t matter if the business intended to Mislead or Deceive, what matters is how their statements and actions affect the thoughts and beliefs of a consumer. The law applies even if no one has suffered any loss or damage as a result of the business conduct.

The maximum penalty for each offence is a. $500, 000 for an individual. b. Body corporates can be charged whichever is greater: c. $10 million, or three times the value of the benefit received, or d. 10 per cent of annual turnover in the preceding year (if the Court cannot determine the benefit obtained from the offence).
