Hi,
I posted a question last year about a property that was being sold at auction.
https://www.askaboutmoney.com/threads/bidding-at-online-auction.210540/
I did not buy the house. I went to my limit, 2 other bidders carried on bidding for a time and it sold for a good bit over my limit, it made well more than twice the AMV. That was fine, I'd given it my best shot, I moved on.
Today I spotted that the sale added on the Property Price Register, with a sale price listed as not just considerably less than the sale on the day, but at less than my final bid - by a five figure sum. There are no stars by it to suggest it sold below its market value.
I went back to the old auction reports on the auction site, to check that I'd not lost my mind completely, though I still have the WhatsApp conversation where I was relaying progress to a friend, so am completely clear about the figures involved. The property is not listed there anymore. Nothing, it's disappeared.
What might have happened here? I am a little bit annoyed now, should I be or is this a thing that happens for reasons I am not appreciating?
Thanks for any input.
