After joint administrators instructed us to host a major asset auction on behalf of Skybridge UK, a developer of a novel electric aircraft, we are delighted to announce that all items were sold for a total of £514,000.

Featuring CNC machinery, 3D printers, compressors and much more from leading brands like Delta Elektronika, Zund and IPG Genesis, this collection of items caught the eye of many interested parties. A staggering 608 people registered for the sale, with almost 200 of them bidding and winning assets from the developer.

In total, we successfully sold the 953 lots in the auction across a five-day period. The speed of sale and the amount of funds raised pleased our client and allowed them to move swiftly on to the next stages of the administration process.

Working closely on the valuation and listing of each lot within the auction, Regional Director Kevin McAndrew had this to say about the outcome:

“After taking time to understand the requirements of the client, we appreciated the importance of a quick sale. To successfully sell each item in the listing for such a large return highlights our expertise in navigating the auction process seamlessly.”
