Attend The Auction

We strongly suggest serious bidders attend our live events in person. In addition to participating directly on auction day, you'll also be able to inspect any property you will bid on. Most events take place in our Chicago auction gallery, on the city's north side.

Absentee Bidding

Submit bids in advance of an auction by submitting an absentee bidder form. Your bids are confidential, and your high bid will not be executed unless required by competitive bidding. Absentee bidders frequently purchase items for amounts well below their high bids.
