Hobo-jo,yes you have to register at Auctions in Brisbane but there may be up too 5-8 people there on the day of the Auction working for thewillair, don't you have to be a registered bidder at the auction to participate? At least that was my understanding here in SA. How do you claim that you are not interested and then still register to bid?
REcompany,plus the vendors family and a few ringinsand in Qld as i have seen so many times they will stand next to you and try and add the little extra help in those few brief minutes,the best one a Lady agent pulled on us was she stood right next to me and the "Boss"on her mobile in the short skirt and high heels bidding away for as she told us a interstate buyer who trusted her to do the deal,the funny part was while she was pretending to bid her phone rang,"LOL",I just ripped our bidders card and threw it in her fake euro bag and walked out the gate..willair..
