Online Auctions

Online Auctions could encompass many of the other areas that we serve.  Meaning, you could be having an estate sale and we do it all online, could be consignments that are put together for a periodic online auction and they can also be combined with live auctions.

Our first and foremost goal is to provide to you what you want.  If your goal is to sell everything from your estate, an online auction may work as we would be posting everything, advertising, taking in the sales and when it is all said and done, writing you a check for the sale of the items. 

There are details to take care of in advance such as are we taking all of your items to our facility, selling in place, or other options.  Our preference for estates is for us to come to you and NOT sell in online auction format.  Much simpler, easier to make deals with customers and other buyers for items that are being sold.  You can see more details about this with the Estate Sales Page.

If you are looking to consign items and want them sold at auction, this may be the method for you.  We will take consignment items and try to sell them for predetermined amounts, but this can also take time and there is no guarantee of a sale, or at least a sale if there is a minimum (reserve) that you are wanting to be sure it sells for.

Depending on volume or quantity of items, our general plan is to have an online auction once per month, with a 10 day period where actual bidding takes place and 10 days of previewing (online) and 1-2 days of physical previewing for potential buyers.  After auction is over we will have a 2-3 day period where all items will be picked up.  All sales are done online via pre-approved credit cards.  Any items not picked up by the buyers become the property of ACES.  All items that don't receive bids must also be picked up by the owner within this same period.
