Auction vs. Garage Sale
Simply put, an estate auction brings more profit to the
seller than a garage sale.
The spotlight is on your merchandise instead of an item that has a price tag
on it.
For example, the garage sale lasts over a period of days and as the days
progress the prices of items are usually lowered. An estate auction is
different in that the
price of an item goes UP instead until an ultimate high bid is determined!
When done in a respectful and dignified manner and marketed properly this
auction
produces the best results for the seller.
