Auction or estate sale? What’s the best way to sell off furniture and antiques?
December asked:
We’re downsizing and need to get rid of some furniture and assorted antiques. Has anyone out there had experience dealing with auction houses or estate sale dealers?
We’re downsizing and need to get rid of some furniture and assorted antiques. Has anyone out there had experience dealing with auction houses or estate sale dealers?
Should we send the stuff to an auction house(some of the pieces are large)? Have an on-site auction? Have an estate-type sale? We’re trying to decide which way to go.
Thanks for your help!

The price may not be as quick to set the price when its sold they take their percentage and lost alot of money id try consignment sale if you wont lose as much either furniture or antique and lost alot of money id try consignment.

Antiques and auction is nothing like the competitive bidding process to go there is.
