With the social distancing restrictions on live attendance at saleyards, AuctionsPlus has seen a huge rise in demand, so large that transactions for a recent weaner sale had to be delayed because so many buyers were attempting to get online. Nevertheless, the technical challenges were solved, and the company has announced plans to expand into online wool and rural real estate markets. We use online to stream out to people who may not want or need to attend in person so people can increasingly get the best of both worlds.
As we come out of drought, store stock will attract a premium and we think over the next five years our business is going to continue to grow through servicing that market.

Operator Sandy Brown said the increase correlated with a crackdown on the sale of animals by Facebook and Gumtree, owned by eBay. Ms Brown pleaded with people to surrender unwanted litters to local pounds or animal rescue groups.
They didn't ask to be born, but the least everyone can do is give them a life that they deserve," Ms Brown said. According to Facebook's policy introduced in , the promotion of the sale of all animals is forbidden. Parts of animals such as pelts and skins are also included in the ban — even wool sales are prohibited.
The protocol is aimed at preventing illicit activities that endanger animal welfare such as uncontrolled puppy farming, as well as dog and cock-fighting rings.
Gumtree allows the sale and adoption of certain species and breeds, but there are minimum age requirements for young animals and fees apply. Desmond Dean, an administrator for more than Facebook pages mostly focused on Queensland communities, said he had several pages shut down by Facebook after it ramped up enforcement of its animal policy over the year. They include buy, swap, and sell pages, and groups specifically aimed at farm animal sales.
As to how these rules will apply to online spaces which sell pets, Alokparna Sengupta, Deputy Director HSI India, explained that online marketplaces for pets or people who want to sell pet animals online will now have to register, and the registration will be granted based on whether they are the requisite infrastructure for the animals, the animals pass the required health checks and kept in proper premises and so on.

Priya and several others had come together three months ago to start an online petition to stop the online sale of dogs — ads which ran into dozens of pages on platforms like Quikr and Indiamart. This happened after the death of Bagheera, a Labrador puppy who was purchased online at just days-old by an inexperienced first-time dog owner.
As a result of unhygienic breeding conditions Bagheera soon became afflicted with canine distemper. Further, the young pup had not yet weaned off his mother. After 15 days of suffering, the puppy breathed his last. Last week, in a victory for the campaigners, Quikr and Indiamart both agreed to stop the online sale of pets.
