H&H Classics’ online platform “H&H Online” debuted in late 2017, providing the online bidding service for their classic motorcycle auctions at the National Motorcycle museum and for classic cars at their renowned IWM Duxford auction.
The platform now allows buyers to purchase without Internet Surcharges – previously as high as 2-3% per item charged by their previous online bidding service providers, now fully removed in-house by H&H Online so that buying costs in the room is on a level playing field with buying costs via online bidding.
This was successful right off the bat, with the 1943 International Harvester M5 Half-Track Personnel Carrier selling for £135,000 to an H&H Online bidder, at the IWM Duxford auction on 15th November 2017.
