How we compared
We read the public AuctionIQ pages listed under Sources on 12 October 2026 and kept only what we could confirm there. Coverage figures are each site's own claim and are counted in different ways, so we have not ranked the two sites. AuctionLand's lot count, auction-house count, update schedule and prices are shown live from its catalogue and plan settings (last counted 12 October 2026, 23:21 UK time), so they can change from day to day. If AuctionIQ changes a price or feature, tell us through the contact page and we will correct this page. Always verify lot details, legal packs and fees with the auctioneer. We review this page at least every 90 days.
