We have added a group of photos from our more than twenty years of Summer Auctions a.k.a. "Three Days of Peace and Tools", here at our World Headquarters Complex in Avoca, New York and we would like to take this opportunity to extend a word of thanks everyone who participated in those events, even if only by wishing you could be part of it all. And a special word of thanks to those who were part of our Nashua, New Hampshire and Indianapolis, Indiana Auctions and to our auctioneers, Paul and Christopher Wilmott of New Hampshire and Bill and Terri Baxter of Indianapolis, who never let us down in more than twenty years of live auction events. If you are not currently registered to bid in our auctions, you can register to bid by clicking HERE. We have the First Tuesday and First Wednesday Auctions for July fully loaded and bidding is now underway. You can view the auction and enter bids beginning now and continuing until July 15 & July 16, 2025. On the last day of the sale, two lots will close and be marked as sold each minute beginning at 7:01 P.M. on each ending day and continuing until all are sold. Bidding will be open on both auctions until bidding closes as the lots begin selling at 7:01 PM on each night of the sale. You can keep bidding until the item is marked as sold. In the event that there is an increase in the bid in the last two minutes before an items sells, it will be extended for two minutes, unless the high bid amount increases again, at which point it will extend for another two minutes.
