Report
Bidpath are the worst, be warned, steer clear. Rip off Britain Bid path skim 2% off absentee bids left for auction houses. Hello, absentee bids are meant to be taken at the auction house's base buyer commission / premium rate. So, bidpath means buyers have to input their own bids, rather than the auction house staff doing it from emails etc, and pay 2% on top for the privilege of doing the auction house staff's job for them. I just got ripped off an extra 15.84 at C&T Auctions for just this; 15.84 going to Bidpath's pockets for doing nothing (they get paid as it is by the auction house for doing their web site).
