5 Reasons Why Holding an Auction Is the Best Option

Whether it’s an antique, a one-of-a-kind piece, or our most prized possession, we assign a value to the things we believe are most important to us. At one point or another, we learn to part ways with our belongings, but it’s how we let go that determines the real value we see in our possessions. Rather than throwing away items that we no longer need or use, selling them at an auction allows us to witness their value first-hand. Bodnar’s Auction< offers the widest variety of items in Central New Jersey. Having been in business for 24 years, we know that our knowledgeable, trained staff are able to help you, whether you’re buying or selling.

We don’t all see the same value in everything, which is why selling items at an auction allows you to let others find value in the things you may have thought to be worthless. Going to an auction to either sell or buy items has become immensely popular over the years. Here are a few reasons why:

  1. The process is quick, and there is a high turnaround
    An auction is held and completed at a set time.
  2. You are in control
    The auction firm will work with you while you set the time and location of your sale.
  3. No negotiations
    Buyers understand that there is no debate or haggling over a price of merchandise.
  4. Efficiency of process
    Every item at an auction goes up for bid, and every item is sold.
  5. The economy has no impact
    Whether the economy is up or down, people don’t shy away from a great deal.

Not only do people flock towards a good deal, but the excitement also motivates them. According to a study commissioned by the National Auctioneers Association,

  1. 83% of people believe buying at an auction is an exciting way to get good deals.
  2. 51% of people believe they offer great value on items.
  3. 65% of people believe auctions sell exciting items that they wouldn’t purchase otherwise.
  4. 53% of people enjoy the excitement of knowing they are getting a great price.

I’m happy with everything Joe and Janet did, you were both informative and were very helpful with the questions I had being that I was never in that position before. Janet’s response time was also positive for me. It was interesting to watch the auction live. I thought you did an amazing job and had a nice banter back and forth. You seem to be a good team! Thank you for all your hard work and making this difficult time of letting  my deceased father’s collectibles go an easy experience.

I would like to thank you for including me in your online sale.
Everything from none contact drop off, to none contact pick up, was handled with the outmost professionalism.
I appreciated your clear communication after the sale with a printout and an explanation of when I’ll receive my check.
Overall I was very please with the prices my jewelry achieved, some lot  went for less then I expected, others went for more, it’s all in the average.

Thank you very much

I come to your auctions often. You and your staff are great. Your change to an online auction on 4/9 is just another testament to your fine character and being thoughtful of others. The items are great no doubt, but a big reason I keep coming back is due to the culture you have created. Thank you. Art
