An antique auction is an auction where the things sold are very old. Usually, antique auctions sell things that other collectors have offered or they sell antiques that people have left behind after they died. Whatever the reason, there are many great deals to be had at an antique auction. Antique auctions may be a little hard to find. You can check your local newspaper or call the local antique dealer. Either one of those sources should turn up an antique auction near you. The people that attend these auctions are antique dealers, private dealers as well as hobbyists who just like to buy things that catch their eye. If you offer it to an antique house, they will likely receive a commission for allowing your item to go up for bids. If, however, you choose to auction the item off yourself, say on an auction site, you may have to pay a small fee to include it in the listing but all profits will be yours. Depending on the item, there's no limit to what someone will pay.



You can even find antique auctions online. Sites like EBay are perfect for finding great deals on antique items. Antique auction sites allow you to bid while providing pictures that you can look at so that you can see exactly what shape the item is in before you bid on it or visit www.auction-words.com
