At the coalface, page-9

”The under-quoting law is coming back to bite buyers on the bum. Agents are now raising their quote for auctions and the price on private sales DURING the sales campaign according to the level of buyer interest to avoid being prosecuted for under quoting.”

Good!
People can choose not to go, or they can choose to waste their lives and money, chasing something that is beyond their range.
The choice is in their hands and not bullshite hopes spewed by campaigns and false pricing, that the seller has nominated and was not even considering.

Start with ”Its on the market” at this price. Is an improvement.
