Hot Tubs Go Off the Boil in $9M Spa Seizure Sale

Lloyds Auctions 2 mins read

One of Australia’s biggest stockpiles of outdoor spas have been sent to a clearance auction at Lloyds with nearly 600 brand new spas from just $1.

In a rare nationwide event, over 500 brand-new, in-crate spas, with a combined retail value exceeding $9 million, having just been published online, with all bidding starting at just $1.

The massive haul of outdoor luxury spas was seized from storage facilities across six warehouses around the country.

The stockpile of spas was released after the spa importer landed in hot water due to unpaid freight and storage bills, leaving facilities within their right to repossess the spas and move to recover costs.

Now, the public has the rare chance to access premium outdoor spas at a fraction of the cost, just in time for the cooler months ahead.

“This is one of the largest spa auction clearances I’ve ever seen in Australia,” said Mr. Lee Hames, Chief Operations Officer at Lloyds Auctions. “We’re talking hundreds of high-end outdoor spas, ready to roll straight into Aussie backyards, and some of them could sell for up to 90% below retail.”

The sale includes a wide range of 30 different outdoor spas, from spacious family hot tubs to full-sized swim spas, all brand new, never used, and still in their original crates.

With cost-of-living pressures on the rise, Aussies are looking for ways to create affordable luxury experiences at home and this opportunity presents at a perfect time just before winter.

The online auctions are open now and expected to draw nationwide interest with spas located in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Tasmania, Adelaide and Perth facilities.

With bidding now open, interest is heating up fast, the auction is already generating strong demand nationwide. To browse or place a bid on the auction visit lloydsauctions.com.au/major
