Live, In-House Auctions

Especially attractive to buyers is Pete’s policy of charging no buyer’s premium which translates into higher realized prices for consignors and happier buyers!
Online Auctions
Several times per year, Pete’s Auction Service holds detailed catalog auctions that are broadcast live for internet as well as in-house bidding. These sales featuring high-end antiques and hard-to-find collectibles of all kinds attract national and international bidders. Publicity for these sales is extensive. Absentee pre-sale and phone bids for any auction are always welcome.
Estate Sales and Clean-outs
Pete’s expert staff also can organize and hold “tag” or estate sales at a homeowner’s premises. The team researches, prices, tags, advertises and operates all aspects of the sale, including after-sale clean up and if necessary, transport of unsold items to auction, desired charity, or other location.
On-Site Auctions
On occasion, the size or complexity of an estate requires an auction to be held on-site. Pete’s Auction service can evaluate the needs and requirements for such events and handle all preparations and management of the on-site sale.
Appraisal Services
Whether it’s a tractor or a shotgun, a Ming Dynasty vase or a Mickey Mouse watch, Pete’s experienced professionals can offer an honest, thorough evaluation of all assets as well as advice and direction on how best to market and sell them.
Grocery & Household Products Sales
One of Pete’s Auction Services most popular activities is the periodic Food & Grocery auctions. Filet mignon and cases of cleaning supplies, frozen pizzas and Egyptian cotton sheet sets…. You never know what may turn up at these sales --- all for way below wholesale prices.
Benefit Auctions
A staunch supporter of charitable local activities, Pete’s Auction Service also frequently participates in an array of nonprofit events.
