Tiny's Green Shed takes over from the R Shop at Mitchell

The Green Shed isn’t the only option anymore.

The ACT Tender Centre has opened in Mitchell recently, the silent auction process allows for non-competitive bidding against items with seller reserve process displayed.

Items can be left for up to four auction cycles at no cost to the seller of not sold. The commission on sold items is 20%….that’s 80% return to the seller who might alternatively given the product away for others to profit from.

You won’t be uncertain of the price you would pay, bidding forms openly state the surcharge to the bidder on “won” items. 11% + $2 processing fee.

Look ACT Tender Centre up on Facebook.

Agree, Yay!

However, it seems to me that we have gone from (at least) 3 operators to just the one, is this the best option for the long run?

I guess we will see.

Well it worked just fine with local community group Revolve for many years until a bunch of bureaucrats stuck their noses in, kicked Revolve out and gave the contracts to the infamous Aussie Junk from the Gold Coast. Tiny’s has managed to get Mugga Lane almost back to what it used to be under Revolve (without Better Bits and the bikes out back) but since the ACT government ruthlessly destroyed Revolve, Tiny’s Green Shed is the best option we have.

Yay! The other bunch that have been operating at Mitchell charge like a wounded bull. We have sourced many bargain items from Tiny’s in Mugga Lane (and we were fans of the late Revolve).
