Frequently Asked Questions

There are no listing fees to enter your Heritage plate into our Live Auction. Heritage Only covers all marketing and event costs, ensuring your plate is professionally promoted to our network of collectors and investors. Your experience is designed to be simple, transparent, and cost-effective.

A Vendor’s Premium is a fee paid directly to Heritage Only from the final sale price. This fee covers the service of completing settlement and transferring ownership between the Buyer and the Seller. Heritage Only will deduct the Vendor’s Premium automatically from your final sale price. Our Vendor’s Premium is 3% (incl. GST).

All online bidders are required to undergo a thorough security verification process. If our team determines that a registration does not meet our standards, bidding privileges will not be granted for the auction. These measures effectively mitigate the risk of unethical or fraudulent behavior among online bidders.

If the auction meets the reserve and the buyer fails to complete the transaction, in accordance with our Terms and Conditions, Heritage Only reserves the right to:

a. Cancel the Purchaser’s Account;
b. Initiate legal action to recover all owed funds, including Buyer’s Premium, administrative fees, expenses, and lost income;
c. Sell the Lot to the next highest Bidder or through another method without prior notice to the Purchaser, and seek to recover any shortfall from the Purchaser after deducting expenses;
d. Seek compensation from the Purchaser for any additional losses, costs, or expenses related to the resale of the Lot, including any difference between the original Purchase Price and the resale price.

The reserve is determined by the seller and Heritage Only.
