Post by seasidedan »

Decent sized auction with a rare old mix of machines at the end of the month in Belgium:

Odd auction, I guess like eBay, as sellers all over the place. Only one machine interests me, the Dial for Money. Will post on SEMCO thread as funny.

Added to the Calendar.
Interesting but disconcerting sale. Troostwijk don't appear to provide an address on their website but, looking elsewhere, their head office appears to be in Amsterdam. I've never seen a company so thoroughly slated on trustpilot.

Looking at the reviews, I wouldn’t touch them with a barge, never mind a barge pole!

This auction comes back about 3-4 times a year with the same machines. Like the same in Rosmalen. Told him once I was interested in the Pace machine. Never heard again from him…

Troostwijk is mainly an industrial auction that clears bankrupt company assets etc. It's not a traditional auction house and is more like an ebay as suggested above. I've bought industrial printing machinery from it in the past for my company, but never a personal purchase.
