Sunday 16th February 2020 is your next chance to bag a bargain at our Peterborough unclaimed luggage auction in aid of Magpas Air Ambulance! Hundreds of bags, big and small, will be up for grabs, so come along and find some hidden treasures.
To build on the astonishing success of our final auction of 2019, we’re returning to Peterborough for our first charity auction of 2020, and have secured a BRAND NEW venue, at Parkway Sports & Social Club!
Celebrity auctioneer David Palmer from TV shows Bargain Hunt, Flog It and Cash in the Attic will be auctioning all lots on the day. Bids will start at £10. Cash and card payments accepted.
All funds raised from winning bids will go to help our lifesaving cause and will enable us to continue to provide lifesaving care by land and air to the most critically injured and seriously ill people around the region whenever they may need us.
What’s in the bags?
Unclaimed bags from all over Europe will be up for auction. At a recent auction, winning bidders went away with brand new Nike trainers, brand new designer goods with the tags still on, an Apple Watch, some Beats headphones, and more!
People from all walks of life travel through Europe’s airports and you never know what they’ll have in their cases. Some of these cases don’t find their way back to their owners. Will you be the lucky bidder on someone’s bag after a shopping trip to Milan or Paris? Will you land some new snowboarding gear after someone’s trip to the Alps? Maybe a new guitar from someone busking in Berlin? Or will it just be someone’s dirty laundry?
“The ‘blind’ bidding is all part of the fun and it’s all for a great cause! I had a great time, picked up a couple of bargains, and helped support a brilliant local charity and their lifesaving cause. Thanks Magpas!” said one attendee at one of last year’s auctions.
On the day
People of all ages are welcome at our Magpas Unclaimed Luggage Auctions. The event is completely free to attend. Doors open at 11:00am and the auction itself will begin at noon. Be sure to get down there early to eye up the bags, work out what you’d like to bid on, and secure yourself a prime seat.
Parking spaces directly in front of the venue is slightly limited, but you are welcome to park around the adjacent retail park, with the shortest walk (less than 2 minutes) being from by Dunelm and CarpetRight, or the other side by Aldi and B&Q.
Please contact Annette for further information.
Bids start at £10, cash and card payments taken.
