Welcome to our New AuctionsPlus Website

Written by Angus Street | Jan 28, 2021 8:00:00 PM

As a loyal member of our digital community, you will have noticed that the AuctionsPlus website has a new layout, look and feel.

With customer service and innovation at our core, we have long recognised that our ‘old’ website was good – but could be better. Without reinventing the wheel, we’ve embraced the opportunity to enhance what we had and build what’s been missing.

We appreciate the importance of our website. Our goal has not been a radical redesign, but rather optimizing every aspect of your online journey to create a world-class digital experience. The enhancements and changes we’ve made are designed to make it easier to find more of what you are looking for and provide you with an efficient, intelligent and reliable experience.

Here are some of the key updates we have made and how they will enhance your online trading experience:

*New* Search Function

For the first time ever, you can search for specific listings instead of searching through to an entire auction catalogue. You are now able to search for specific stock categories, descriptions, locations, or stud sales across all auctions and classifieds, making it easier to find exactly what you’re searching for.

*New* Catalogue & Lot Information Layout

Our traditional catalogue displays remain, with some added inclusions to the information provided at a catalogue level. Once you are in the listing, we have improved the layout, look and feel for all categories. You can also email and call the selling agent or broker directly from the listing you are interested in.

*New* News Centre

We have built a central hub that gives you access to the latest livestock & agricultural news, market analysis, industry related articles and commodity insights.

*New* Help Centre

The information available to you on AuctionsPlus is extensive and it is all centrally located in our Help Centre. If you cannot find the answer to your question, we have provided multiple contact points to resolve your query as quickly and seamlessly as possible.

Enhanced Category Search

If you are browsing, pre-defined category search tabs allow you to easily view everything from commercial cattle to alpaca and property auctions. By selecting from one of the available categories, you will see all available listings (including auction, buy-now and classifieds).

Increased Filters & Sorting

After searching for a listing through our search bar or the category search tabs, new filters allow you to narrow your search even further. Including Agency group, Assessor and town name, catalogues are immediately sorted to suit your preferences. Filters will continue to evolve - so please send us suggestions below as to how we can improve your search.

Customise Your Experience

We appreciate how valuable your time is, so we have introduced a new saved searches function, allowing you to check for any new listings that meet your nominated criteria. In addition, a calendar reminder function means you to set calendar alerts for upcoming sales.

Improved Sharing

When selling on AuctionsPlus, you can now share customised catalogues through uncomplicated share functions via email, Facebook, Twitter or direct link. For buyers and those browsing, you also can share listings that you are interested in, simply and easily.

Upcoming Auctions

All upcoming auctions will remain on the homepage to ensure seamless connection to running auctions, along with habitual weekly catalogue access.

Auction & Results Tabs

The ability to browse results pages remains by selecting from pre-defined categories. In time, we will be expanding these categories and increasing the sophistication of our results to include indicator, comparison, and projection tools.

Market Comments

Our weekly Market Comments will continue to be emailed to your inbox and you can now find links to market analysis along with free market information and additional insights in the results tab.
