Auction items: 1000 yuan shopping card starts at 1 yuan, and a 200 yuan deposit must be paid first
The Qinhuai Court auctioned a total of 35 supermarket shopping cards, all with a face value of 1,000 yuan, which will be auctioned in single sheets.
Although the starting price is only 1 yuan, if you want to participate in the auction, you need to pay a deposit of 200 yuan first, and the price increase is 20 yuan.
The auction will start at 10:00 am on July 21, and many people have signed up to participate. The number of applicants for each shopping card auction ranges from 2 to 22 people.
The reporter learned that these shopping cards are the property involved in a case of fund-raising fraud.
The execution ruling shows that the defendant Zhang Moumou committed the crime of fundraising fraud and intentional injury, and was sentenced to 15 years and six months in prison, and his personal property was confiscated of RMB 10 million; the defendant Jiang Moumou committed fundraising fraud. He was sentenced to 13 years in prison and confiscated personal property of RMB 8 million.
At the end of June this year, the Qinhuai Court ruled that the property involved in the case, including the 35 shopping cards, should be auctioned off.
At the same time, 13 golden leaf (Tianye) cigarettes, 46 packs of Xiaosu cigarettes, five cars including Maserati, BMW and Land Rover and a house in Yixing were also ruled to be auctioned.
At present, in addition to this house, other properties involved in the auction have been "listed" in the judicial auction section of Ali Assets Platform.
A reporter from the Yangzi Evening News saw that, except for the scattered 6 packs of Xiaosu cigarettes, the rest of the cigarettes were auctioned by cigarettes, and the starting price was also set at 1 yuan.
Industry insiders: There is little chance of "picking up leaks", but you can get discounts
The supermarket shopping card with a face value of 1,000 yuan, and a cigarette with a price of 1,000 yuan, all started at the price of 1 yuan this time, which attracted the attention of many netizens.
So, can participating in this auction successfully "find a leak"?
In this regard, an industry insider told a reporter from the Yangzi Evening News that the 1 yuan auction launched by the court has a clear face value or market price, and is very "practical", so most bidders will have a relatively clear psychological expected price. And some of them should be closer to the face or market value of the lot.
Therefore, he believes that the possibility of "picking up leaks" at a very low price is very low, "but you can definitely get a certain discount."
A reporter from the Ziniu News from the Yangtze Evening News found on the Ali Assets platform that the Qinhuai Court had auctioned a batch of supermarket shopping cards in May 2021.
In addition to the cards that have been used, the transaction price of the shopping card with a face value of 1,000 yuan is between 930 yuan and 961 yuan, and the transaction price of the shopping card with a face value of 500 yuan is between 454 yuan and 465 yuan, which are similar to their face value.
The reporter noticed that the auctions of these shopping cards basically had a fierce bidding process, and the most one experienced a delay of 101 times, and finally locked in the price of the 160th auction.
It should be pointed out that in the last auction, the court set a starting price of “30% off” for the face value of these shopping cards, and this time, the starting price was all 1 yuan.
The judge introduced: What are the advantages of "1 yuan auction"?
A reporter from the Yangzi Evening News noticed that at present, many courts have tried to auction off the property involved in criminal cases at a starting price of 1 yuan.
Take Qinhuai Court, which auctioned the supermarket shopping card, as an example. In October 2021, the court auctioned a BMW 3-series sedan with a starting price of 1 yuan, which also became the first "1 yuan auction" of criminal property in a Nanjing court. .
In the end, the BMW car, which was 16 years old and had a driving mileage of about 230,000 kilometers, failed to pass the annual inspection of the year after 266 bids and was sold at a price of more than 27,000 yuan.
The "one yuan starting auction" has greatly lowered the threshold for participation in judicial auctions, making judicial auctions more accessible to the public, but this does not mean "willful" participation.
The reporter noticed that each court has set a certain amount of security deposit in such auctions, and clearly informed the bidders of the responsibility of regretting the auction in the auction announcement.
Courts all over the country have tried the "one yuan starting auction" for criminal property. What are the advantages of this method?
An enforcement judge told reporters that the property involved in criminal cases is usually disposed of in accordance with the enforcement rules and procedures of civil and commercial cases, and there are often problems such as long disposal periods and large depreciation.
On the one hand, the method of "starting auction at 1 yuan" can reduce the cost of traditional evaluation, significantly shorten the process time, and save disposal costs; Recover losses for victims as soon as possible and to a greater extent.
