My first experience at a small town auction, and it was quite... interesting! Don't expect anything fancy or super valuable here. The stuffs here are mostly what you can find at yard sales. Occasionally you can find some unique item here that you buy for $10, and end up selling it on Ebay for $150. Lots of so called "antiques" here which many of you might consider to be as junks/craps... But it's amusing to see how many people there bidding on them and how much they were willing to pay for them. The guy showcasing the items was pretty entertaining. He had a squeaky high voice and was overly excited about every single item. Audience couldn't help laughing at him and it was quite fun. The high point for me at the auction was when they were selling candy corn at $5 per box (contains around 20 bags each box) which happened to be expired 2 years ago. 1.5 stars for the auction items here + 5 stars for the amusing experience = averaging at 3.25 stars. read more

Metz Hill Auction - Auction Houses Near Me - Oakland, Oregon

I contracted with this auction house in October of 2010 to sell my items. I have called them repeatedly to inquire as to why I have not been paid for the items that sold, and to ascertain as to the whereabouts of the rest of my items. they will not call me back, they have told me that the check was on the way, they refuse to talk to me when I call, and I have even hired an attorney to contact them, they will not speak to him either. I do not recommend anybody use this company to sell your items. They will sell them and not pay you. read more
