Busy Place Bit Good Deals
I've been attending sierra auctions for about 10 years, maybe even longer! I've gotten many really good deals here on lots of different things from tools, vehicles, shelves for the garage, and even a bunch of guns!
I haven't been to this auction house in quite a while, at least a year! It seems there are a bunch of new people working there now, where are used to know a lot of the original people as I shopped here almost every auction.
The girls in the office are always friendly and have a good sense of humor which makes the experience more pleasant.
My experience as a buyer here I would say it is 85% positive. The only complaint can be the long lines of people as this auction company does their best to try to get through the horrendous crowds on an auction day. I usually prefer to pick up all my auction goods the day after to avoid the terrible crowds.
My experience as a seller only occurred one time. I gave them over $100,000 of jewelry for a high-end jewelry auction they did a decent job and sold about 60 to 70% of what I brought them. My complaint is that well I had the most expensive products in their auction and they made a fortune literally selling my little bit of stuff, they were absolutely unwilling to negotiate on the high commission rate that would be more acceptable if I was selling things that were less expensive and not as worth their while. One of my items they made over $3000 commission alone on which it sort of seems a bit excessive considering my products were the biggest player for quality in that auction. Normally auction houses give you a good deal if you are regular buyer and also bringing in items of value that are sure to sell.
All in all this is definitely a worthwhile auction to buy from you just need to make an informed decision as to what you're willing to pay for a commission and then evaluate how well you think they will market your goods to ensure that the premium amount possible is earned from the sale.
