Jeremy does his research, and will be upfront with you about whether an item has value, and if it will be worth the effort to put up for auction. There are not enough businesses that go above and beyond for their customers. Jeremy came out to our storage locker, helped move items to take pictures, and helped move items back until they were ready for auction. I can't say enough about Spartan Auctions. Jeremy took the time out of his busy schedule to answer any questions, either by call, text, or email. He truly cares about his customers. Hands down FIVE STARS! You won't be disappointed!

I think Rebecca misread my intent. Hessney is not a ripoff, he sells to the highest bidder. If…read moreyou don't like it, don't buy it. As for the fees, the State Sales Tax goes to the State, not Hessney. The buyers premium is indeed a rip off (since Hessney likely charges the SELLER a fee as well), but it is clearly stated at the beginning of every single auction and on his web site. The saddest thing is that buyer's premium does not buy you any guarantees. I think if you are being told that an item is in a certain condition, then it turns out that it does not work the buyer's premium should allow you to bring the item back for a refund of the bid price. The buyer's premium should be an insurance policy, not an extra 10% fee for Hessney. I would waive insurance if I could waive the fee. But to waive any insurance and still pay a fee above an beyond your bid price is just thievery.

Comments about my post show lack of knowledge of an absolute auction. Basically, an absolute…read moreauction is either by consignment or actual sale of items to the owner of the actual business, not the auctioneer, who usually is an employee or even a partial owner I like auctions because it should be competitive and offering items useful for a specific purpose. Legally an auction business is a second-hand dealer selling items based upon the highest bidder. It may be a fun event, and even a place to meet individuals of similar interest. Best to actually know what you are bidding on, and during the auction listen closely to the representations made by the auctioneer.

Of course, if you intend to participate, you have to do your homework. You have to look the pieces over in advance. Sometimes it requires a bit of research. Kelly always announces that he is not responsible for the final price in any way. Your bid is up to you. His offerings range from misused, little wanted antiques, to very rare, desirable pieces. The rest is up to you. You cannot blame him if you buy something that you later decide you really don't love. Take care, and have fun! I always do!!

I did enjoy how the market was outside and inside but the quality of stuff they had to offer and…read morethe prices where a little high for me(overpriced). I didn't find much of anything other than a couple little things like a record of Elvis (a gift for my mom-paid $10 for the record) and some kids stuff. I did enjoy the little wine tasting/slushee they had at a booth. They also had a cute train set up for the kids to watch. I was surprised they had a booth with plants and a couple food booths if you get hungry. Sorry I forgot to take a picture!!

On their Facebook page they've been promoting some new vendors inside the building and mentioned…read moresome improvements have been made to the inside. I usually go here a few times during the spring/summer but hadn't gone yet this season so I was excited to see the changes. Unfortunately, it's still kind of a dump. More vendors have rented the inside booths, but most are nowhere near being "antique" dealers as there recent posts made it sound. I saw booths selling Tupperware, leather/biker gear, incense, purses, and a tea/coffee shop. There was one farmer's style stand selling fresh vegetables and plants, I'd love to see more vendors like that. As for the outside stalls, more than half were vacant, and of the vendors that were there it was a mix of overpriced, dirty junk and a few good antiques but mostly still overpriced. I did buy one item, but the vendor didn't accept credit cards or venmo/PayPal (come on, it's 2022, everybody has venmo or square). These are sellers that are there every weekend, it's time to upgrade your technology. I paid the atm fee to take out some cash, but other buyers would have walked away. Several of the outdoor stalls reeked of cigarette smoke, I walked out of two of them for that reason. (Unsurprisingly, one booth owner was wearing a Marlboro jacket.) This place could do a whole lot better if every inside booth was filled (with actual antiques), more farmer's market type of vendors, and was generally less depressing/seedy.

There's plenty of free parking, and the pizza is excellent.
