I don't think you are in NSW but I'm sure 'underquoting' is against the law in all states.

Up to 20% is normal. Fair trading won’t touch it until it is 30%.

And it’s 30% from the upper number

We learnt that the hard way. Embraced it and could afford to buy what we wanted. Interestingly enough the place we bought was advertised with a 50k range. Ended up going bam in the middle. We showed up to the auction with the extra 20%
