Our experience
From the experience we have, the objects shall be put up for sale at a “symbolic” starting price, and then the market will set the price. On large objects, the “symbolic” starting price shall be agreed each time, between the seller and the Skandinavisk Service Partner. We have learned earlier that a “symbolic” starting price, each time provides a higher final price. The object will then be sold on the auction at the highest price achieved.
