In just ten days, we will be in Rochester New York at the DoubleTree by Hilton Rochester Hotel (Ballroom) conducting a 300 to 350 lot evening auction for the Early American Industry Association Fall Meeting that is being hosted there. It took us nearly 10 days after the May 3 Humboldt Iowa sale to mail out all the items won by absentee bidders. This put us behind in getting this EAIA sale filled out, so will be working on it right up until the time we depart to drive up there. So far, we have some great axes, Lie Nielsen planes, 18th Century American and English molding planes, brass tea and coffee pots; long handled wooden shovel and rake, laundry stick, and so much more. See the list on the link below and keep checking back as it will get updated.

DO YOU HAVE ANTIQUE TOOLS, GUNS, ANTIQUE KITCHEN GADGETS, SURVEYING INSTRUMENTS; FARM PRIMITIVES OR RELATED ANTIQUES FOR SALE? CONTACT MIKE@GREATPLANESTRADING.COM ABOUT SCHEDULING AN AUCTION OR ADDING YOUR ITEMS TO AN ALREADY SCHEDULED AUCTION. ALL INQUIRIES WILL BE HELD IN STRICT CONFIDENCE.

A 15 percent buyers premium is now charged at our tool sales unless otherwise advertised by us. We do not like having to charge it, but it had been at 10 and 12 percent for 15 years while our competition was charging 15 to 20 percent or more. We use the buyers premium we collect to offset the ever-increasing costs (fuel, hotels, advertising, hall rental, vehicles like trucks and trailers) associated with putting our sales together. By not having to pass all these costs onto our consigners, we are able to attract better consignments and offer competitive rates.
