gavelhouse.com conducts fortnightly auctions in Australia and New Zealand where bloodstock can be traded for an affordable listing fee and no commission is charged on lots that are offered unreserved and sell for less than $5,000, with 5% commission on other lots.
The success of the venture is growing all the time as more thoroughbred owners become familiar with the process of selling and what gavelhouse.com has to offer.
*Extensive international database thanks to parent company New Zealand Bloodstock and the brand's presence in the thoroughbred trading market as a classified site for seven years beforethe transition to online auctions.
*Strong social media presence
* Since April, horses sold internationally from New Zealand to Australia, China, Hong Kong, Macau, Malaysia, Tahiti and Singapore.
*Fully self-service site meaning sellers can list their horses for sale in their own time.
*An enthusiastic team on hand that's keen to offer a transparent and cost effective service to ultimately see the site grow to be the first choice for buyers and sellers alike.
Good sale results and happy vendors and buyers are the proof of the pudding.
The rising stocks of Cambridge Stud's boom sire Tavistock has seen savvy Kiwi vendors taking advantage of the timeliness of the regular gavelhouse.com auctions.
They have been cashing on his progeny's demand throughout the winter months with five colts successfully sold for between $91,000 and $138,000.
In addition to individual horses, stallion shares and nominations can be traded with plenty of interest generated in a share in Rich Hill Stud's Melbourne Cup winning sire Shocking resulting in it fetching $47,000, some $17,000 above its reserve!
