For more information please call 972.348.0483 or email us at dpattersonauctioneer@yahoo.com
We do not do estate sales. We don't believe they are efficient and cost you money in the end. On Site Estate Auction will bring fair market value based on the crowd and the set up. People like to see how something was used by others and potentially will drive sales based on the site. We will set up the auction in the house and sell it on site.
You may choose to not have the auction at the house, you may prefer it to be handled somewhere else. We will pack your estate and move it to our auction house in Canton, TX and offer it for sale at a time and date we agree upon.
We will offer you a fair wholesale value of the contents of the estate and pack it then offer it at auction at our convenience.
Preview for our auctions will be Friday before the Auction and all day Saturday until time of auction. Our normal auction hours are:
Auction House: 6pm Saturday
Onsite Auctions: 10am
Preview times:
Friday from 9am to 5pm
Auction Day times
Auction house from 11: to auction time at 6pm.
Onsite from 8:30am to auction time at 10am
To bid you must be a registered bidder with a bidders number. You can register for the auction on the day of the auction or you can register at the preview. We accept both absentee and live bidders registration at the preview. Absentee bidders cut off time to register is when the auction starts.
We accept USD , All major credit cards, and checks with prior approval
Bidding requires some thought and strategy. Below is a list of items that will prepare you for auction time.
1. Preview the items so you know what you are going to bid on.
2. Know your price limitations
3. Know what you are bidding on.
4. Beware of the tension during the auction so you do not overbid your limits.
Live bidding is physically attending the auction. You will register at the office and receive your bidder number. review the items for sale and make a list to follow. In your mind set a price limit. If you win the bid the auctioneer will call your number and the price. At the end of the auction you will check out and gather your new found treasures and pay out.
Absentee Bidding you are not physically at the auction. You will register via calling or emailing the auction house and they will register you with a buyers number. You will give the auctioneer your opening bid and maximum bid for each item you have selected. It is a good idea to come to a preview to actually see the items, however, if that is not possible then check out the photos provided on auctionzip or any other website owned by the auction house. Set an opening bid and your maximum price. The auction house will record your information and use it during the auction. If you win the bid your number will be called and you will be called by the auction staff to charge your credit card. You will be responsible for removal of the items according to the auction house rules.
Live vs Absentee Bidding
Auctions are exciting and fun rather you are their or not. At a live auction you can control your bid and increase it as you are able. The absentee bid in effect locks in your highest bid, therefore if the item exceeds your high bid amount then you would not win the item.
Both forms of bidding will provide a fun and exciting experience to the buyer. Both will give you the potential of winning that treasure you found.
If you are interested in placing an absentee bid with us, please call our office and we will register you. You may also check in at the preview if you wish.
