Don't lose hope bumpton, because phone and interstate bidding is both encouraged and welcomed for our auctions.
As long as you can arrange the transport/shipping, you're welcome to bid and buy some of our wonderful WA timbers.
To phone bid, you'd be best making a call to our auctioneers, Ross's Auctions either today or first thing tomorrow on (08) 9272 4644, or Auctioneer Kevin Grickage on 0411 649 603. It's only 2:30pm here in WA, so you've got some time yet.
PS: I've just found out that sadly you wouldn't be setting any records bidding from Victoria. While checking this our with our Auctions team today, the current record holder is a gent from Holland who bid on and won some lots a few auctions back. Bid via phone and arranged for it all to be shipped to his home there.

That's totally fine, and if you ever are interested in bidding, or you're in WA around the time of one of our auctions - please feel free to stop by.

Went to the auction today. I almost cried when I saw how low some of the items were going for. Huge natural edge Marri slabs, 4m x 750mm x 50mm, went for $50, similar Jarrah, Tuart and Liquid Amber for not much more. Next time I will take a truck.

Items 85-87
I am not 100% sure but I think it was around $20-40. All the burl slices on this page were no more than $50. It was a good day for the hobby buyer. I got a nice stack of banksia and woody pear for a bargain. So good I didn't even bother going for the sheoak I went down for.
