Good collections of quality antiques are getting really hard to find - they simply are not coming around very often. This truly is your opportunity to own a part of a lifetime of collecting.
Kelly’s Notes: ABOVE IS ONLY A PARTIAL LISTING! There are thousands of beautiful and hard to find items - look at the pictures! We separated them into managable catalogs (groups of like items). You will note there are different end times for the 30catalogs.
(1) "Antique Furniture, Old Porcelain Dolls, Clocks, and Great Frames and Paintings" bidding ends at 6:00 PM Central.
(2) "Antique Porcelain and Glassware" bidding ends at 7:00 PM Central
(3) "Jewelry, Misc, Box Lots and Other Dolls and Other Frames" end at 7:30PM Central
Don’t discount the last group - these are some of the best Box Lots you have ever seen - many of these items are good enough to stand on their own, but needed to be compiled into box lots because there is just so much to sell in this one auction.
If you want to come by the office and view the items, call to set up an appointment during office hours. 1-888-282-8648. Also, if you need help registering or bidding - same number - we are here to help.

Please remember that this auction has a "Soft Ending"....If there is a bid in the last 10 minutes of the auction, bidding will be extended an additional 10 minutes until all bidding on that item is quiet (stopped) for 10 minutes. Because there is so many wonderful antiques to bid on and they are in 3 separate catalogs, don’t wait until the last minute to bid! Put your best bid in and let the software bid the increments for you. If you wait, chances are you will miss something this time....
Pickup Dates /Times: Friday, June 1 10:00 AM until 5:00 PM and also on Saturday, June 2 from 9:00 AM until 12:00 Noon at the Aumann Auction Gallery, 20114 IL Rt 16, Nokomis, IL 62075
Items will be paid for by cash, good check or charging a Visa or Mastercard at pick-up rather than charging your credit card immediately at the end of the auction. You will note that there is a 10% Buyer’s Premium in place. Payments made with a credit card will pay 15% Buyer’s Premium at pick-up. For any items not picked up on Friday or Saturday - your registration credit card will then be charged the 15% Buyer’s Premium.
SHIPPING: Okay, here is the deal....we strongly recommend and appreciate your picking up your items.... but if you just cannot possibly pick them up, we can ship the smalls....but as you know, shipping is expensive. We will pack very well - gobs of bubble wrap and sturdy boxes - doing all we can to keep it reasonable, but all shipping costs are paid by the Buyer.
