Inside This Week’s Melbourne Auction Market – 68 Upcoming Sales inc Coins & Banknotes, Apple Gear & Robotic Home Tech

Philips has put together a catalogue that leans heavily on quality over quantity. The art section is the main draw, with a mix of Australian and international works that should pull in both collectors and decorators looking for a point of difference. If you’re after furniture, the antique and 20th century pieces are worth a close look, particularly the timber lots that have held up well.

Jewellery buyers get their own slice, with rings, brooches, and chains spread across the sale. The decorative arts are where the value often hides, so check the ceramics, glass, and silverware lots for anything with a maker’s mark or a distinctive pattern. The auction closes on 10 August, so give yourself time to inspect the condition reports before bidding.

Burns and Co know their way around classic and collectable gear, and this sale leans into the niche end of the hobby. You are not looking at one or two stray items here, the catalogue is built around model cars and related memorabilia, which means plenty of scope for filling gaps in a collection or grabbing something for the shelf.

Dig through the listings for specific brands and scales if they are named, but the real draw is the mix. Diecast cars, promotional models, and display pieces tend to turn up in these sales alongside signage and other petrol-themed collectables. If you are chasing a particular casting or a bit of workshop wall art, this is worth a proper scroll.

Delivery is handled from 4 Market Drive, Bayswater, so factor that in if you are bidding from further out. Timed online format means you set your own pace, just check the close time for each lot and be ready to move when the countdown gets tight. Burns and Co run a tight ship, so the condition notes in each listing are worth reading before you commit.

Burns is known for digging out proper classic and collectable gear, and this one looks like a lifetime of accumulation. While the full lot list is still being finalised, the focus here is squarely on collectables, which in Burns’ world means you can expect a solid run of vintage memorabilia, automobilia, and potentially some classic tin.

If you’re chasing parts, signage, or that elusive piece of history to finish a shed, this is the kind of catalogue worth refreshing. The delivery point is 4 Market Drive, Bayswater, so factor in freight or a pickup plan before you bid. Given it’s a named collection, there’s a fair chance of some serious depth in the catalogue, not just a few stray bits. Set your budget now, because single-owner lots like this tend to draw attention from the regulars.

Burns and Co, the team known for handling classic and collectable vehicles, is running this one from their Beresfield base, but the physical goods are staged at 4 Market Drive in Bayswater. It’s a straight-up workshop clearance, so expect the usual mix of heavy bench gear and the smaller stuff that adds up fast.

Standout items from the lot list include a Hafco lathe and a selection of welders, plus air compressors that’ll save you a trip to the tool shop. There’s also a decent run of Sidchrome hand tools, which always hold their value at resale. If you’re setting up a shed or topping up a trade kit, this is a solid chance to grab the expensive bits without paying retail.

Check the photos carefully and factor in the Bayswater pickup before you bid. The auction closes on 10 August 2026, so there’s time to sort out transport and have a proper look at what’s on offer.

Burns and Co have built their name on classic and collectable cars, bikes, and the sort of memorabilia that gets serious bidders clearing their Sunday. This one’s running as a livestream event, so you can sit in your shed and throw a bid without burning diesel to Beresfield. The catalogue leans heavy on motorcycles, with plenty of older Japanese and British iron, plus the usual run of enamel signs, manuals, and workshop tools that fill out a collectors’ sale.

Standout lots are the kind of thing you’d normally chase at a dedicated classic vehicle auction: original-condition bikes with matching numbers, period-correct accessories, and racing memorabilia with provenance. If you’re after a project or a tidy weekend rider, there’s likely something here. Check the lot photos carefully, because condition varies wildly, and ask Burns and Co for a condition report if you’re unsure. Bidding closes on 10 August, so register early and watch the livestream to gauge where the real interest sits.

Burns and Co know their way around a classic car yard, and this catalogue reflects that. The focus is on Australian and American muscle, with early Holdens and Falcons expected to draw the serious money. Motorcycle fans aren’t left out either, with a mix of road and race machines that range from restorable to ready-to-ride.

Beyond the vehicles, the memorabilia section is where the sharp money often moves. Original dealer signage, enamel badges, workshop manuals, and NOS parts can outperform the cars on a dollar-per-kilo basis. If you’re restoring something specific, check the parts bins early, because the good stuff goes fast.

Buyers should factor in the Bayswater location and arrange transport ahead of time. Burns and Co run a tight ship, so registration and inspection details are straightforward, but don’t rock up expecting to kick tyres on auction day without doing your homework first. The close date is the 10th of August, so pencil in your bids and stick to your limit.

Burns and Co have built a name for themselves digging out quality classic car and bike gear, and this one is straight from a serious hoarder’s shed. The Walter Jobson Collection is the kind of find that doesn’t turn up often: decades of accumulated dealership signs, enamel advertising, fuel pumps, and motorcycle parts, all in one hit. Part one means there’s more to come, so if you spot something here, it’s worth chasing now before the later rounds get picked over.

Standout lots include original dealer boards and tin signs from the 1950s and 60s, plus a swag of NOS (new old stock) motorcycle components, which are gold for restorers. There’s also a mix of workshop manuals, brochures, and period photos that add context for anyone documenting a specific marque. Bidding is via the usual online platform, with delivery arranged from Bayswater, so factor that into your logistics if you’re interstate. Check the full lot list early, because with a collection this size, the good stuff will get buried in the listings.

This is a proper enthusiast’s clearance from Burns and Co, delivered from Bayswater. The Park collection spans decades of petrolhead obsession, with standout lots like a restored 1970 Ford XY Falcon GT in factory-correct paint and a numbers-matching 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray with the 327 V8. Motorcycle fans get a 1972 Norton Commando 750 Roadster and a 1966 Triumph Bonneville T120R.

Beyond the vehicles, the memorabilia is deep. Expect original dealership signage, period-correct toolkits, service manuals, and a run of diecast models. The auction closes 29 June 2026. Buyers should factor in transport from Bayswater to their door.

This is a pure retailer shelf-clearance, so expect the kind of gear that usually sells at full retail, now starting at auction opening bids. The iRobot Roomba Combo J9+ is the headline act, a self-emptying robot vac and mop combo that’s only marked as minor use. That’s a big saving if you’re after a hands-off floor cleaner.

Beyond the robots, the lot list covers the usual suspect brands for a home-tech dump: Dyson, Sony, and PlayStation. The DeLonghi dehumidifier is a solid pick for Melbourne’s damp months, and the Homedics Foot Flow circulation booster is the sort of oddball lot that goes cheap because no one’s sure what to do with it. Spoiler: it’s a foot massager, and they’re surprisingly handy.

If you’re bidding, check the condition notes on each lot carefully. Some items are listed as minor use, which could mean anything from a display model to a customer return. No delivery details are given in the notes, so factor in a pickup trip to Melton if you win. Set a budget and stick to it, because clearance auctions like this tend to pull in plenty of lookers looking for a steal.

The MoeBot S10 is the headline act here, built to handle mid-sized lawns without you breaking a sweat. It maps your yard, dodges obstacles, and heads back to charge on its own, so it’s a solid grab if you’re over the Sunday mow.

The Poolbot B150 is a straightforward robotic pool cleaner, good for keeping the waterline and floor tidy without running the filter pump all day. Then there’s the Legee Q10 Pro, which doesn’t just vacuum and mop, it washes the mop pad at its docking station, so you’re not hand-rinsing dirty cloths. Rounding out the set is the Ultenic T20 Pro robot vacuum, a decent mid-range unit for everyday dust and pet hair.

Everything is new or ex-display stock, so condition will vary, but with only six lots, bidding should move quick. Pickup is in Dandenong South, so factor in a trip if you’re not local. Check the photos and read the condition notes before you commit, these are the kind of lots where the details matter.

Grays is putting up six pallets of returned smartphones, mostly flagged as "for parts," which means buyers should factor in repair or refurbishment work. The standout lots include three Motorola RAZR 50 Ultra 5G 512GB units, three RAZR 60 5G 256GB and RAZR 40 5G 256GB combos, and a mixed four-phone lot spanning the EDGE 60 Fusion, EDGE 50 Fusion, and EDGE 50 Pro. Another pallet combines the Oppo Reno 12 Pro 5G, Reno 13 F 5G, and the ASUS ROG Phone 8 Pro.

This is a clearance event, so condition will vary and there’s no reserve, meaning bids start at whatever the market decides. If you’ve got a repair bench or parts source, the value is in the volume, not the individual units. Check the photos carefully and factor in the "for parts" status before you commit. The auction closes on 6 September, so get your assessment done early.

If you repair phones or know someone who does, this is a straight-up parts bonanza. The headline lot is the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra 1TB lot of four, which is rare to see in bulk. Also on the cards is a Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold lot, mixing 512GB and 256GB units, plus a mixed lot of S25, S20, and S20 FE models.

These are retail returns, so expect cosmetic wear, screen damage, or board faults. The “for parts” tag means they haven’t been tested as working, so bid to your own comfort level. With no reserve, the opening bids will be low, but the final price will hinge on how many other repairers are watching.

The auction closes on 7 September 2026. Lot count is small at seven, so pick your target early and check the photos closely. Grays runs these clearance events regularly, but the mix of current-gen S24 Ultras and the Pixel Fold makes this one worth a proper look.

The headline acts here are the unused container shelters, and there’s serious variety in the sizes. You’ve got the big 40ft x 80ft model for wide-span coverage, plus standard 40ft units and the extra-heavy-duty version if you need something that’ll cop a hammering. The fact they’re unused means no wear headaches, just assembly and go.

Beyond the shelters, the lot list points to a solid clean-out of workshop and site equipment. Generators are mixed in for off-grid or backup power, while tool boxes and general workshop gear round out the offering. It’s a practical spread for a shed fit-out, a rural property, or a small contracting job.

With 102 lots and a TBC close date, it’s worth checking the listing regularly for the final countdown. If you’re after shelter or power gear without the new-price sting, this one’s got plenty to sift through.

This one’s got plenty for operators setting up or restocking a workshop or warehouse. The hydraulic power packs are the sort of workhorse kit that keeps production lines moving, and the 5.5kW unit should handle heavier duties without breaking a sweat. The Rotronic measurement system is worth a look if you need precise environmental or humidity monitoring, a niche piece that often gets overlooked.

The continuous inkjet printer is a standout for anyone doing batch coding or packaging work. It’s industrial-grade, so it’s built for regular use, not light duties. Beyond those headline items, the 99 lots cover pallet racking and general warehousing gear, which means there’s likely shelving, storage, and workshop odds and ends to fill out a trailer load.

Pallet-lot buyers should check the listing carefully, as some lots may be grouped rather than sold individually. With the close date still to be confirmed, it’s worth locking in your list early and planning a site inspection if you’re serious about the bigger pieces.

The Bush Pack treatment on a 2021 Lark is the main draw here. It’s Jayco’s factory answer for rough gravel roads and longer stints off-grid, so it’s not just a standard van with a sticker. Expect the reinforced chassis, off-road coupling, and the larger fresh water capacity that sets it apart from the base Lark. For anyone planning a lap or regular trips into national parks, that’s the spec you’d tick anyway.

Being a Grays Online rolling auction, the close time shifts as bids come in, so you need to watch it rather than set a reminder and walk away. The van is located in Werribee, so if you’re in Melbourne’s west or willing to travel for pickup, it’s worth a physical inspection before bidding. Check the service history and any signs of water ingress, as you would with any used camper, but a 2021 model should still have plenty of life left in the canvas and seals.

If you’re after a tow-behind that’s ready for unsealed tracks without needing a full expedition build, this Lark Bush Pack is a practical pick. Just factor in the buyer’s premium and the pickup logistics when you’re working

The Holden Executive is a solid daily-driver prospect if you’re after something straightforward and cheap to run. Petrol sedan from 2003, likely with the usual fleet-car history, so it’s worth a look for anyone needing reliable transport without the new-car price tag.

The 1961 Rover J Sedan is the real point of difference here. That’s a classic British cruiser, and even in storage condition, it’ll draw interest from resto fans or parts buyers. Body and mechanical state will be the big question, so factor in a thorough inspection before bidding.

Both lots come from overdue storage, meaning the backstory is thin and the condition is unknown until you see them in person. With only two lots total, this is a small, focused sale, not a sprawling clearance. If you’re chasing either a modern commuter or a vintage project, get your viewing sorted before the close date on 2026-09-09.

This is a single-lot listing for a near-new Jayco Journey, one of the more popular entries in Jayco’s touring range. The 17.58-1 layout gives you a front double bed, mid-kitchen, and rear bathroom, which makes it a solid pick for couples or small families wanting a proper shower and toilet on board. Being a MY23, it’ll have the newer Jayco interior styling and the updated external graphics.

Grays is running this as part of their rolling caravan and motorhome sales, so the close date can shift. Pay attention to the listing for any condition notes or photos showing wear, as these units often come from rental fleets or trade-ins. If you’re after a late-model van without waiting out a new build, this is worth a close look. Check the tare weight and tow ball mass against your tow vehicle before bidding.

The PX3 is Star Vision’s mid-size tourer, and a 2022 build means you’re getting current suspension, braking, and electrical setups. Look for the usual family-friendly layout: front bed, rear lounge or dinette, and a full kitchen with decent bench space. Check the lot photos for the specific interior trim and any add-ons like solar or a proper battery management system.

Given it’s a single caravan lot rather than a fleet clearance, this could slide under the radar compared to bigger multi-item auctions. That works in your favour if you’re chasing a near-new van without paying dealership prices. Grays listings for these often include a condition report, so pull that up before bidding. Also confirm the tare weight and ball weight if you’re towing with a specific vehicle. Close date is still TBC, so check the listing regularly for the countdown.

The Talawana X15 is Austrack’s mid-size off-roader, built for real dirt miles rather than bitumen-only trips. It rolls on a sturdy chassis with independent coil suspension, which makes corrugations and rutted tracks far more manageable than a standard leaf-spring van. Inside, you’re getting a queen bed, a decent sized dinette, and a full kitchen with a three-burner cooktop and a decent bench layout.

Storage is a strong point here, with a front boot and plenty of external hatches for camp chairs, recovery gear, or a portable fridge. The 12V system includes a decent battery and solar prewiring, so you can run lights and a fridge without needing to plug into powered sites every night.

Check the images for any stone chips or wear under the chassis, as this van has likely seen some gravel. It’s a single-lot listing, so there’s no bulk-buying angle, but if you want a late-model off-road van without paying new prices, this is worth a close look. Confirm the close date with Grays, as it’s still listed as TBC.

This is a single-lot listing, not a full clearance, so it suits anyone chasing one specific rig without wading through a yard of other gear. The Jayco Expander 57.37-2 is a well-known pop-top design, light enough for a decent range of tow vehicles and straightforward to set up. Being a 2005 model, expect some wear, but Jayco’s build quality from that era holds up well if it’s been looked after.

Check the photos and any service history closely, as pop-top canvas and seals are the usual trouble spots on a van this age. The layout is the classic 57.37-2: double bed up front, dinette that converts, and a rear kitchen. Grays runs this as a timed online auction, so you’ll need to register and bid before the close. If you’re handy with a bit of maintenance, this could be a cheap way into a proper caravan, but factor in a thorough inspection first.

This listing is one individual caravan from Grays Online’s rolling auction schedule, so it’s a standalone buy rather than part of a big yard clearance. Millard is a well-known Australian brand, and if this example is in decent nick, it could be a solid weekender or a cheap base for a renovation project.

The key here is condition. Caravans in auction can vary from “packed and ready to camp” to “needs a bit of TLC,” so you’ll want to inspect the photos closely and factor in any rego or compliance issues. Dandenong South is a convenient pickup spot if you’re in the southeast suburbs, but factor in tow costs if you’re coming from further afield.

Before you bid, check what’s included: annexe, awning, spare wheel, or just the van itself. Also confirm whether the auctioneer lists a reserve or if it’s a true no-reserve sale. If the body is sound and the internals are tidy, this could be a cheap way into caravanning without paying dealer prices.

This is a single-lot listing for a recent-model Goldfields Sovereign, a proper Aussie-built camper designed for getting off the beaten track. The Sovereign is known for its sturdy chassis and family-friendly layout, so if you’re after a ready-to-tow setup without paying new prices, this is worth a close look.

Grays has it listed as part of their ongoing caravan and motorhome sales, meaning the close date can shift, so keep checking the listing for the countdown. Given it’s a 2022 build, condition will be key, so factor in a pre-bid inspection if you can, or at least go through the photos carefully for any wear from previous trips. No reserve listed means it could go for a sharp price, but be ready to move when the timer gets tight.

This one’s a standalone caravan lot in Grays’ ongoing auction schedule, not part of a big clearance bundle. The Flamingo was a popular entry-level camper in its day, and this example gives you the bones to either restore or use as-is. Check the canvas for tears and the timber frame for rot, because that’s where old Jaycos usually show their age.

The layout is typical Jayco: a front bed, basic kitchen with sink and stove, and a dinette that folds down. The 1998 build means it’s pre-laminated timber, so it’s heavier than later models, but also simpler to repair. If you’re handy with a sealant gun and don’t mind a bit of elbow grease, this could be a cheap entry into caravanning.

Given it’s a rolling auction, the price will climb in the final hours. Set a firm ceiling based on what a used camper trailer actually owes you, and factor in rego and any safety gear it might need. Dandenong South pickup means you’ll need a tow vehicle with a suitable ball and wiring, so sort that before you bid.

This one’s a clean-out of retail stock, so you’re looking at a mix of box-fresh electricals and furniture with minor use. The Jason Furniture modular sofa is a solid pickup if you’re after living room gear without paying retail, and the SOLT dishwasher is a straightforward kitchen swap-in. On the entertainment side, the AIWA 8-inch Mega Boom speaker brings the noise with RGB lights, while the JVC party speaker comes with a microphone, handy for backyard gigs or karaoke nights.

The Apple and Sony lots are the drawcards here, but don’t overlook the smaller electricals and home improvement items that tend to fly under the radar at these clearances. Given the 100-lot count and the retailer’s need to shift everything, bidding is likely to stay sharp on the big names, so have your limits sorted before the close date. Check the condition notes carefully on the furniture and speakers, as some are flagged for minor use, and factor that into your bid.

The two JLG Toucan 10E units are the pick of the lot for anyone needing reliable vertical access. The 2023 model is nearly new, while the 2012 unit offers a cheaper entry point for site work. Both are electric, quiet, and suited to indoor maintenance jobs, warehouse fit-outs, or facility teams.

On the vehicle side, the 2006 Suzuki GDN71V petrol van is a solid runabout, while the 2005 Ford Transit T350 refrigerated unit is worth a look if you do food delivery or temperature-sensitive transport. The Transit’s fridge body adds real value if it’s in working order, so factor in a pre-bid inspection.

The GPU hardware suggests there’s computing gear in the mix too, which could appeal to miners, render farms, or IT recyclers. With only ten lots and an unreserved sale, expect competitive bidding on the newer manlift. Check Grays’ listing for the close date and arrange site viewing before you commit.

The Ford E350 is a proper slice of US RV culture, built on a heavy-duty van chassis. For buyers chasing a project or a budget tourer, this one offers a blank canvas: think V8 power, a boxy body with plenty of room to rework, and that unmistakable late-80s American styling. Grays has it listed as an individual lot in their ongoing auction schedule, so no fixed close date is pinned yet, meaning you’ll need to watch the listing for when bidding actually wraps.

Given the age, don’t expect showroom condition. Check for rust around the cab, the condition of the house electrics and plumbing, and whether the engine and transmission are healthy. The E350 platform is well supported for parts, but shipping and compliance costs could add up if you’re not local. Still, for someone handy with a spanner and a bit of patience, this could be a cheap entry into a proper motorhome, not a converted van. Keep an eye on the photos and any service history Grays has uploaded before you bid.

The Retreat Brampton is a well-regarded single-axle van, built for off-grid trips with a decent payload and practical interior. Grays has listed this as an individual lot, so you’re bidding on the whole van, not a package. Look for the usual wear on the annexe and tyres, but the 2016 build should still have plenty of life if it’s been looked after.

Inside, expect the standard Brampton fit-out: a front double bed, mid-kitchen with a full oven and grill, and a rear bathroom with a separate shower. Storage is generous for a van this size, and the external hatch makes loading gear easy. If the photos show a clean service history or recent rego, that’s a bonus worth chasing.

Buyers should factor in pickup logistics from Dandenong South, so arrange a tow vehicle or transporter before you bid. Grays runs this as a timed auction, so watch the countdown and have your maximum figure ready. No reserve games here, just a straight bid on a solid touring van.

The Ducato platform is a proven base for motorhome builds, and this 2023 example should still be under factory warranty, which is a solid tick for anyone wary of used RV niggles. Grays is selling it as a standalone lot, not part of a mixed clearance, so the condition report and photos will matter more than usual.

Check the odometer reading and service history in the listing, because a late-model motorhome that’s done serious highway kays is a different proposition to one that’s mostly sat in a shed. Look for the usual Fiat Ducato specifics: diesel engine, manual or auto box, and the layout inside, whether it’s a rear island bed, dinette conversion, or something more compact.

If you’re after a turnkey holiday rig without the new-car price, this is worth a close look. Dandenong South pickup means you’ll need to arrange transport or be ready to drive it out, so factor that into your bid. Keep an eye on the lot page for the close date and any added inspection notes, as Grays tends to update these closer to the end.

The standout here is the 4.8m x 3m Portable Site Office, built for on-site work where a proper room beats a swag or a ute cab. The other two lots are matching portable buildings, so you could grab one for a workshop annexe or pair them up for a bigger setup. All three are the same footprint, which makes planning easy if you’ve got a specific spot in mind.

Given the lot count is small, expect competitive bidding from tradies, site supervisors, and anyone setting up a temporary base. Check the listings for condition notes and pickup details, because transport and loading will be on you. Grays runs these sales regularly, so the close date should firm up soon, but don’t assume it’ll drift. Get your inspection done early and factor in removal costs before you commit.

The 2023 Jayco Journey is the obvious headline act, barely run-in and ready for a lap around the country. If you’re after something with a bit more grunt, the 2005 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 416 motorhome offers a solid base for a DIY conversion or a budget touring rig. The 2022 Goldfields Sovereign camper trailer is a decent option for off-road trips, while the 2005 Jayco Expander adds a classic folding van to the mix.

With only seven lots total, this is a tight, manageable sale, not a mad scramble through a massive yard. The close date is still to be confirmed, so check the listing before you plan your bidding. If you’re in the market for a caravan or camper, this is a good chance to grab something without the dealership runaround.

The 2025 Austrack Stockton X7 is the headline act here, built for off-grid work with a serious kitchen setup and quick-fold canvas. If you want a full caravan instead of a camper, the 2024 Ezytrail Winton 10 is a modern, compact option that suits a tow car without needing a truck. The 2001 Jayco Freedom is the entry-level pick, old-school but honest, and a solid first van for weekend trips.

Also listed is the 2025 Austrack Tradie, which is a bit of a curveball: it’s a camper trailer pitched at tradies or anyone wanting a mobile worksite setup. With only five lots total, this is a tight, easy-to-scope auction. Check the photos for condition on the Jayco, as age will tell, but the two Austracks and the Ezytrail should be close to turn-key.

This is a straight-up unused 2025 Jasmine OES FUQI-13FI, which means it’s essentially showroom stock without the showroom price. The FUQI-13FI is a compact full-height van, built for easy towing and quick setups, so it suits first-timers or anyone downsizing from a bigger rig. No prior owners, no stone chips on the drawbar, no mystery smells from the previous trip.

Grays is running this as a timed online auction, so you bid from your couch and sort out pickup from Dandenong South. Check the photos for the fit-out details, but with a 2025 build you’re getting modern fixtures, decent storage, and the usual Jasmine build quality. If you’ve been waiting on a new van but didn’t want to deal with a dealer yard, this is about as clean a shot as you’ll get. Just factor in transport costs if you’re not local, and confirm the compliance plate details before you bid.

The headline act is the 2015 Isuzu FRR 500 Long 4×2 Curtainsider, a solid workhorse for metro and regional runs. It’s paired with the 2013 Isuzu NPR 400 Long 4×2 Curtainsider, which suits smaller loads or tight loading docks. Both are long-wheelbase curtain-siders, so you’re getting proper cargo volume, not a cut-down city van.

If you run a courier, removals, or general freight operation, these two cover different weight ranges, which makes them handy as a pair or as separate buys. The FRR 500 sits in the heavy end of the light-truck class, while the NPR 400 is a more manoeuvrable option for suburban work. Check the service history and tyre condition before bidding, as curtain-sider fleets cop a hiding. Auction close date is still TBC, so register early and watch for the update.

This is No.2741 in the series, so you’re looking at a well-oiled operation that shifts a steady volume of numismatic material each time. The catalogue is online-only, which means you can browse and bid from anywhere, but the physical inspection might be limited, so check the listing photos carefully for grading and condition issues.

The real interest here is the range. Australian pennies and florins, silver threepences, and the odd sovereign or proof set often appear, alongside banknotes from the colonial era through to modern polymer. If you’re after world coins, there’s usually a mixed lot or two that can be worth a punt, especially if the photos are vague and the bidding stays quiet.

For anyone chasing a bargain, the key is to sort through the bulk lots early. Dealers often cherry-pick the obvious highlights, but the mid-tier material, like commemorative crowns or UNC decimal sets, can slip through at well under retail if you’re patient. The closing date gives you a clear window, so use it to line up your bids and avoid last-minute panic.

This is a regular public sale from the Box Hill auction house, pulling together the tail end of storage cleanouts, deceased estates and retail overstock. The kind of sale where you’ll find solid timber sideboards next to boxed power tools and odd lots of glassware. No single hero item jumps out from the listing, but that’s often the point: the value’s in the mix.

If you’re after furniture, get in early and inspect the joinery, because a lot of this stuff moves cheap when it’s lumped in with general household lots. Antique dealers will be circling the curios and smaller collectables, while anyone setting up a home or a rental property can pick up usable pieces for next to nothing. abbeysauctions runs these regularly, so the bidding tends to stay sensible until the last few minutes.

Check the photos and condition reports before the close date, and factor in pickup from Box Hill. There’s no online-only gimmick here, just a straightforward auction of unclaimed and unwanted goods. If you know what you’re looking at, you’ll find something worth the trip.

This sale is built around quality over quantity. The high-value records and small groups (three or less) get a proper visual grade using the Goldmine standard, so you know exactly where you stand on sleeve and disc condition before you bid. That matters when you’re chasing minty first pressings or obscure imports where condition makes or breaks the price.

The catalogue covers a broad sweep of genres, from classic rock and jazz to funk, soul, and early Australian rock, with a decent run of 60s and 70s originals. If you’re after reissues or common later pressings, this might not be your sale, but for original-label collectors and dealers looking to flip, there’s real meat here. abbeysauctions runs regular public sales out of Box Hill, so this is part of a steady rotation, not a one-off clearance. Bidding closes 10 September 2026, so give yourself time to work through the grade notes and pick your targets.

This weekly estate sale from abbeysauctions is a reliable one for anyone chasing second-hand furniture, vintage homewares or odd lots from deceased estates. The catalogue leans towards practical household gear, but there’s usually a few older pieces worth a second look if you know your timber and your china marks.

Buyers should check the condition notes on each lot before bidding, because estate goods can be a mixed bag. Furniture ranges from solid older Australian-made pieces to lighter retail stock, so decide whether you’re buying to use or to resell. Box Hill is easy to get to, and the regular weekly format means you can scope out one sale, then come back the next week with a better idea of what sells and what sits.

If you’re after a bargain on everyday items like crockery, lamps or side tables, this is a sale worth scrolling through. Just remember to factor in pick-up logistics, because some lots will be heavy and awkward to move.

Abbeys is putting together its September classics sale, a regular public auction that pulls from deceased estates and private collections. This one leans into the sort of gear collectors actually chase: old tin toys, enamel signs, and pre-1970s household items with proper patina.

If you’re after standout lots, look for the die-cast model cars and any original boxed board games, which tend to draw the serious money. Furniture is a decent bet too, with solid timber sideboards and display cabinets that need a bit of elbow grease but are priced to move. Retail stock and curios fill out the rest, so there’s a fair bit of rummaging potential for anyone who likes a mixed lot.

The sale closes on 19 September, so give yourself time to inspect if you’re local. Abbeys runs these regularly, but the good stuff goes quick, and the bidding tends to stay sensible until the last few minutes.

This is one for the design obsessives, not just the furniture flippers. The Memphis Milano pieces are the drawcards here, with Zanini’s teapot and Martine Bedin’s ‘Super’ table lamp representing the movement’s playful, sculptural side. Ettore Sottsass’s ‘Shiva’ vase for BD Barcelona adds another heavyweight name to the mix.

Beyond the big names, there’s practical firepower. The Roberto Monsani illuminated wall unit for Acerbis and the pair of Carlo Forcolini ‘Alessia’ ceiling lights for Artemide offer serious statement pieces for a renovated pad. The set of four Gianni Moscatelli ‘Poney’ swivel chairs for Formanova would suit a rumpus room or a studio space, and the Fabio Novembre ‘Org’ console for Cappellini is pure conversation starter.

The 12+ lots close on 7 September, so check the condition reports on the furniture pieces, particularly the sofa and the chairs. The Newson attribution will draw the most attention, but the Italian lighting and the Memphis-era ceramics are where the value tends to sit for those who know what they’re looking at.

This one leans heavily on 19th and 20th century painting, with a strong showing of Australian names. The Heysen is the headline piece, an early oil from his time abroad, and the Haughton Forrest Tasmanian river scene is a tidy example of colonial landscape work. The Will Ashton of Berry’s Bay, painted in 1956, should draw interest from Sydney collectors.

The Rubery Bennett run is worth a look if you’re chasing smaller works. Seven oil on board landscapes, mostly Victorian alpine subjects like Mt Bogong and Mt Feathertop, plus a couple of outback scenes. They’re compact, framed, and a decent way to build a collection without chasing the big names.

Also keep an eye on the William Frater abstract from 1938, which sits apart from the landscapes and could appeal to someone after a bit of modernism. The W. D. Knox valley view is a solid mid-tier lot as well. Leonard Joel runs these sales regularly out of South Yarra, so the cataloguing is reliable and the condition reports are worth requesting before you bid.

This is a tightly curated grouping that leans into the shift in Australian art history, where female practitioners were long sidelined. The standout is Mary Cecil Allen’s *Reflections* from around 1920, still in its original John Thallon frame, a solid piece of her early Melbourne output before she moved to the US. Norah Gurdon is represented twice, with a floral still life from 1927 and the later *A Winter’s Day* from 1937, showing her range across intimate subjects and broader landscapes.

The print section is where the sharp-eyed buyer can move. Eveline Syme’s *The Duomo Steps, Siena* is a 1931 linocut in a tiny edition of 25, and it’s a classic of the Grosvenor School-influenced style she picked up in London. Dorrit Black’s 1930 bookplate for S. R. Phippard is a quirky, small-scale piece, while Lill Tschudi’s *Visiting Day* from 1937 carries the Swiss artist’s crisp, angular take on the medium.

Condition varies across the older oils, so factor in conservation costs if you’re bidding on the larger works like Aileen Dent’s *Zinnias* or Gladys Reynell’s *Mixed Bunch*. The sale closes 14 September 2026, and with only 12 lots listed, it’s a manageable catalogue to work through. Worth a look if you collect Australian women

This sale draws heavily on the Powell & King Collection, a name that signals quality over quantity. With just over a dozen lots, the focus is on pieces with real presence. The dining suite is the anchor: the 213cm-wide mirrored-top table is a genuine statement, and the eight matching chairs mean it’s a complete setup, not a pick-and-mix job.

Beyond the dining room, there’s plenty of decorative heft. A Clarice Cliff ‘Crepe de Chine’ tea set for four, plus two ‘Silver Autumn’ plates, offers a solid entry point into one of the most collectable names in British ceramics. For the bar cart crowd, the English Art Deco ‘Elevette’ drinks cabinet, likely by Asprey London, is a rare functional piece, while the chrome-framed tantalus keeps the cocktail theme going. Two large loom patchwork rugs, each around 3.9 metres long, could be the sleeper lots here; they’re big, bold, and hard to find in this condition.

Buyers should note the mix of Australian and European makers. The 1930s walnut and velvet sofa is a proper antique, while the provincial-style Chinese low table adds a lighter, more casual option. The sale is timed online only, so inspect the condition reports carefully, especially on the veneered and mirrored pieces where age shows first.

Donington Auctions has put together a solid catalogue for anyone chasing reference material on classic and performance motorcycles. The lots lean heavily toward printed matter, so expect factory workshop manuals, owner’s handbooks, and glossy sales brochures that fill the gaps when restoring or verifying a project bike.

Beyond the standard literature, there’s likely to be some rarer marque-specific material tucked in, given Donington’s usual focus on European and muscle-era machinery. If you’re restoring a bike and need the correct torque specs or wiring diagrams, this is the kind of sale where you can pick up the exact manual without chasing a photocopy online.

The auction closes 7 September, and bidding runs through the Donington platform. Melbourne buyers can inspect in person, but the sale is online, so interstate punters can get in on it too. Sort through the lots early, because the good stuff tends to get buried under the generic Haynes and Clymer reprints.

EJ Ainger has built a name for itself in Melbourne’s antiques trade, and this September sale looks to be a proper mixed bag for anyone furnishing a period home or chasing a specific decorative piece. Day one on Tuesday 8 September gets things moving, with the second session rolling into Wednesday 9 September, so there’s time to sort through the lots without rushing.

The strength here is the range. You’re not just looking at one category; the auction covers everything from heavy timber furniture to delicate porcelain and silver, plus paintings that could suit a seasoned collector or someone after a quality statement piece for the wall. Australian works sit alongside international offerings, so the bidding floor should see a bit of variety in taste and budget.

For buyers, the key is to do the groundwork before Tuesday. Ainger’s catalogues are detailed, and with two days of selling, the pacing means you can watch how day one goes before committing on day two. Richmond is easy enough to get to for a pre-auction inspection, so it’s worth getting hands-on with anything you’re serious about.

This one’s got proper depth for anyone furnishing a period home or chasing a specific collectible. The EJ Ainger rooms in Richmond regularly turn up solid examples of 19th and 20th century furniture, from cedar and mahogany sideboards to smaller occasional pieces that suit a weekend resto job.

On the decorative side, look for ceramics and glassware with a decent spread of makers, plus Australian and international paintings that could slide under the radar if you’re prepared to wade through the lots. Condition varies, as it always does with this sort of stock, so get in early to inspect and check for cracks, chips, or restoration.

The sale runs across two sessions, so pace yourself. Day one will likely clear the bulk of the furniture, while day two tends to favour the smaller goods and artworks. If you’re after a specific piece, it pays to register before the first session starts, because the auctioneer moves through the catalogue at a fair clip.

This is a straight workshop clean-out in Altona North, so the gear is being offered as-is, where-is, with no reserve to hide behind. The milling machine is the big-ticket item for anyone with a shed or a small fab shop; the HM52G is a solid unit for keyways, slotting, and general metalwork. There’s also an IRWIN RECORD No.3 vice and a metal workbench, which are the sort of things that get snapped up quickly when they’re priced to move.

Beyond the heavy stuff, there’s a mix of diagnostic and maintenance gear. The TA500 SmartTach+COP analyser appears twice, so there’s redundancy there if you need a backup or want to run two vehicles at once. An ULTIMATE U-16 vacuum pump, a Bailey fibreglass extendable ladder, and an APEX toolbox round out the practical bits. Two stillages are also listed, handy if you need racking for pallets or bulky stock.

The sale closes on 11 September, and with only 12-plus lots, it’s a manageable one to work through. Given it’s unreserved, the milling machine is the one to watch. Inspect beforehand if you can, and factor in pickup from Altona North. No online-only surprises here, just a straightforward clearance of working gear.

This one has the feel of a cleared-out farm shed, and the variety reflects a working operation shutting down. The Kenworth K100G is the headline truck, a classic cab-over that still has serious pulling power for moving plant and stock. For livestock work, there are four Advantage Feeders units, including three 1800HD grain feeders and an 800HD, plus a cradle hay feeder, so if you run cattle or sheep, this is a chance to grab feeding gear in one hit.

Spraying and spreading are covered too. The 2017 Goldacres Batchmate 800 is a proper broadacre spray unit, while the Roesner Marshall Multispread 810T handles fertiliser or lime spreading. Two tractor buckets, one from Kerfab in 2023 and an older unit, round out the attachments. The auction closes on 22 September, and with 12 lots plus, it’s worth a look if you’re after anything from heavy haulage to day-to-day paddock kit. Pickles has the details up now, so get in before the close.

This is a fleet-rotation sale, meaning the Actros 2643 has likely been worked hard but maintained to a schedule. For buyers, that’s the appeal: a late-model European prime mover coming out of a logistics operation, not a one-off trade-in. The 2643 designation points to a 430 hp output, a solid sweet spot for linehaul and interstate work.

The single-lot format keeps things simple. No rummaging through mixed gear, just one truck to assess and bid on. Given the national scope of the vendor’s operation, the vehicle may have covered serious kms, so inspection and service history will be key. Pickles has the listing live now, with the close date set for late September 2026.

If you’re in the market for a late-model Actros, this is a direct shot at a fleet-maintained unit. Check the listing for photos and any available service records, and factor in a pre-auction inspection if the truck is accessible. Bidding closes on 29 September 2026.

Christian McCann has put together a sale that leans on quality over quantity. The antique furniture side is the backbone here, with timber pieces that range from heavy Victorian-era sideboards to lighter, more refined Regency and George III styles. If you’re after something with a bit of colonial character, there’s usually a decent run of Australian cedar and mahogany in these catalogues, and this one looks no different.

The art section is worth a look too. Australian paintings, both colonial and early 20th century, often pop up in this room, and they tend to fly under the radar compared to the big city salerooms. Asian antiques are the other pillar, with porcelain, cloisonné, and bronze work that can offer real value if you know your periods. Carved wood items, including stands and screens, are also listed, so the decorative side is well covered.

Buyers should check condition notes carefully, as these older lots can carry restoration or wear that isn’t always obvious in photos. The auction closes on 13 September, so there’s time to inspect, but don’t leave it to the last minute. Abbotsford is easy to get to, and Christian McCann’s room has a good track record for honest cataloguing. If you’re filling a house or flipping a piece, this one’s worth a browse.

This one’s got more than just a few pretty pictures. The collection cuts across styles, so you’ll find bold abstract pieces sitting alongside surrealist works that’ll make you stop and look twice. Lawsons has a solid track record with weekly auctions covering furniture, books, wine, jewellery, and decorative arts, but this dedicated art sale suggests the lots have been curated with a bit more intent than the usual mixed bag.

If you’re after statement pieces, the abstract and surrealist end of the catalogue is where the interest will be. Expect a mix of mediums and eras, which means there’s room for both seasoned collectors and first-timers looking to start a wall of their own. The sale closes 15 September 2026, so there’s time to do your homework on the catalogue. Check the condition reports if you’re bidding sight unseen, and factor in pickup logistics from Melbourne before you commit.

Breen Auction Group has been the preferred auctioneer for Victoria Police for over 15 years, so the provenance is solid. This is a classic police auction where you’ll find a grab-bag of seized goods, from cordless drills and angle grinders to laptops, tablets, and stereo gear. There’s also general merchandise that could include everything from homewares to sporting equipment.

The key here is that lots are sold as-is, with no returns. That means a sharp eye on the photos and descriptions pays off. If you’re after workshop tools or cheap electronics to flip, this is the kind of sale where a $10 bid can net a $200 item. Just factor in pickup from Sunshine West and bring cash or card on the day.

Don’t expect a polished retail experience. Police auctions are raw, but for the bargain hunter who knows their gear, the value is often in the unknown. Get in early, inspect if you can, and bid smart.

This is the Spencer Sandilands Collection, a deep trove of Australian printed material and maritime history assembled over decades. The strength is in the books and maps: early Australian exploration narratives, rare atlases, and hand-drawn charts from the age of sail. Collectors of Pacific voyages and Antarctic expeditions will find plenty to chase.

The lot list also leans into maritime artefacts, including ship models, navigational instruments, and logbooks. If you deal in Australian or nautical ephemera, this is a targeted sale worth watching. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing for the countdown.

This sale pulls together the full workings of a dedicated plastic sheetforming operation, so it’s not just spare parts. The standout is the Elumatec twin-head saw, built for precise aluminium cutting, which sits alongside the hydraulic forming press and production oven that handle the heavy shaping work. For anyone in skylight fabrication, signage, or custom plastic forming, the vacuum moulds are where the value sits, as they’re often tooled to specific profiles and cost serious coin to replicate new.

Beyond the machinery, there’s a decent stock of sheet material to factor into your bid. That’s useful if you’re planning to run jobs straight after purchase, saving a trip to the supplier. The Melbourne location means freight is manageable for interstate buyers, but check the close date as it’s still to be confirmed. Given the specialist nature of the gear, this one suits a trade buyer or a workshop looking to expand into plastic forming without paying retail for new equipment.

Gollant is running this one across three locations, so expect to travel if you want the full pick. The Toyota forklift is the practical buy here, with a two-stage mast and security ignition, built for warehouse or workshop duties rather than heavy site work. The 1980 Ford Escort is the curveball, a four-door sedan that could be a resto project or a parts donor, depending on what’s underneath.

The boat and trailer combo adds a bit of weekend flavour to an otherwise industrial catalogue, and the CIG Transtig 275 is a serious bit of TIG kit for anyone doing stainless or aluminium fabrication. Check the listing for each location’s close time, because with three sites, the lots won’t all finish on the same schedule. Sort out transport before you bid, especially for the forklift and the boat.
