About Auction247
A UK online auction house running timed online auctions — operated by Auction247 Ltd since 2023.
Who Is Behind Auction247?
Auction247 is the trading name of Auction247 Ltd, a private limited company registered in England and Wales on 8 June 2023 (Company No. 14924085). Our registered office is 124 City Road, London EC1V 2NX, and the business is run day to day from Southend-on-Sea, Essex. Our company record, including our director, is public on the Companies House register.
We run timed online auctions throughout the year. Each sale is catalogued online, bidding stays open until the advertised closing time, and every catalogue states the buyer's premium before you bid. Recent sales have included watches, jewellery, fashion and general merchandise, designer fragrance clearance and seasonal Christmas auctions. As well as on this website, our current auctions are listed on the i-bidder marketplace.
Sellers consign items to us for free valuation and listing, with no upfront listing fees, and buyers pay securely online, with delivery arranged after payment (collection only where a sale allows it). You can see what has already sold on our past auctions page. As seen & heard on Radio Caroline and KMTV.
UK Online Auction House
The Auction247 Difference
Trust & Transparency
Every seller is verified. Every fee is disclosed upfront. No hidden costs, no nasty surprises — ever.
Live Online Bidding
Live countdowns, real-time bidding and outbid notifications, so you never miss the closing seconds of a lot.
Community-Driven
We're building more than a marketplace — a community of collectors, bargain hunters, and entrepreneurs who love the thrill of the auction.
Social Responsibility
We actively promote circular commerce — giving items a second life rather than ending up in landfill. Good for your wallet, great for the planet.
Seller-First Approach
No upfront listing fees. Expert valuations. Nationwide collection. We're the auction house that works for you, not just the buyer.
Proudly UK-Based
Customer service is handled in-house by our UK team (Mon–Fri, 9am–5pm UK time) — no overseas call centres.
