Hi, my name is Walt. I’m an auctioneer with 25 years of experience in the auction business and licensed in the state of MA. I own Quick Auction Service, a company that specializes in building and running custom auctions, I’m also the webmaster of my own site and have been on eBay for 8 years. Besides eBay, the types of auctions I run most frequently are antiques and on-site estate auctions, although I’ve run everything from business overstock auctions to charity & special event auctions.

I enjoy sharing my knowledge and stories of the auction business. My goal for article is to help folks get the absolute most out of their auction experience.

Whether your fresh out of the package or a seasoned dealer I think I can offer something in this article to help you with your auciton adventures.

There may be as many reasons to attend auctions as there are types of auctions to attend. Maybe you want to attend an auction to buy items for re-sale on eBay, or some other market. Maybe you want to furnish your home with wonderful antiques, or you want to furnish your home as inexpensively without sacrificing quality.Some folks are just looking for a fun night out. With a little perseverance all these things are possible.

There are antiques and estate auctions, auto auctions, overstock auctions, absolute and no reserve auctions, real estate auctions, specialty auctions where only one genre of items are sold, tailgate auctions, live auctions, online auctions, sealed bid auctions, silent auctions, charity and fund raising auctions and many more.

Can you really buy for pennies on the dollar at an auction? You bet! Many times I’ve seen folks buy and re-sell at the same auction on the same night for a good profit, although be advised, this should only be done after the auction is over.

There are a lot of ways to find an auction, but here are some tips on how to find and attend the best ones.

Visit the genre of shops in the area that apply to the type of auction you want to attend. IE: If your looking for a good antique auction to attend, stop in the local antiques shops and ask for what there are for good auctions in the area. Sounds obvious right? But listen to what they don’t say as well as what they do say. Oftentimes when a dealer speaks poorly about an auction he or she attends, it may be likely that they are trying to keep a good thing secret. Think for a moment, why would a dealer keep attending a lousy auction?

Newspaper ads: I personally like to find ads in the classified ad section rather than flashy display ads. Flashy ads are usually indicative of an auction that will be high priced, may have reserves, (a set price on an item), and usually an enormous crowd. While any auction can be profitable to attend, it is usually best to steer clear of the glitzy ones, at least for the beginner.

Here’s the minimum you want to find out before you go. If there is a phone number in the ad, call and ask for the terms of the sale. What forms of payment do they accept? Is it an absolute auction? An absolute auction is one that has no minimum or reserve bids on items. These are the best auctions to attend! Is there a buyers premium? A buyers premium is like a tax that everyone who makes purchases at that auction must pay above the winning bid price. Most auctions these days do charge a buyers premium, 10% is not unreasonable but I feel much more than that is greedy, and the auctioneer that charges over 10% is counting on most bidders not doing the extra math as the bids quicken in pace.

A fair auction will have ample time to inspect the merchandise, usually at least 2 or 3 hours. Find out when inspection starts and make sure to attend! Never attend an auction if you can’t make the inspection, not unless your prepared to gamble. Most auctioneers sell at a rate of about 100 items per hour, which is why they sell “as is”. They simply don’t have the time to give a detailed description of all the items. Since almost all items at auction are sold AS IS, there are sure to be some damaged, refinished, fake and incomplete items at any given auction. Beware of any auctions that offer very little or no inspection time.

Good auctions will usually have 150 to 400 lots. A lot may be one item or a group of items. The exception to this are specialty auctions, auto auctions, real estate auctions etc.

When you attend your first sale, take note of the 1/2 dozen or so dealers that buy the most often. See if you can find out about other area auctions they attend.

When you do find an excellent auction, attend it as often as possible. By frequenting good sales, you help increase the bottom line of that business. It’s difficult for many auctioneers to keep the quality of merchandise consistent, so good attendance certainly helps. And when an auctioneer gets to know you as a buyer, he/she will go out of the way to accommodate you, to keep you coming back.

Even though it seems as if almost everyone dreams of running a home based business, not everyone has what it takes to succeed with a home based business. There are certain attributes that you should have if you want to have a higher opportunity for success with a home based business.

There is no doubt about the fact that you need to be a hard worker if you are going to succeed with your work from home business. A lot of people see a work from home business as a way to get out of the 9 to 5 job work frame. The truth is you will have times when you are up very early and working very late to make your business a success. You will find that there are times when you need to work on weekends and perhaps even on holidays. You cannot be intimidated by hard work if you want to run a home based business.

It is important to be a highly motivated individual if you are going to run a home based business. You need to keep yourself on task no matter what line of work you select for your business. There will no longer be a boss telling you what to do and what to do it. You will need to be able to keep yourself motivated to succeed as well as anyone you might have working for you.

Determination and optimism are important if you want to work from home. Many businesses will fail and those that don’t will have times when business is not good at all. You need to use determination and optimism to ride through the bad patches so that your business can excel. Do not give up hope the first time things do not go your way with the new business. If you believe in yourself and your business, you have more opportunity for success.

People skills are important if you are going to operate a home based business. Anyone who is going to run a home based business must be able to have the best possible communication skills. If you have people working for you, you want to be able to motivate and inspire them. It will also be necessary to communicate well with your clients. As a business owner, you will want to have the people skills you need to keep customers satisfied even when things go wrong.

Although not all home based business owners are organized, it is beneficial if you are. Being organized will make it less likely to make billing errors and other errors in your business paperwork. You are less likely to miss deadlines or to misplace items you need to provide clients with the intended products or services. If you are organized you will be able to stay on task and to make plants for the future of your business.

Creativity is also an important attribute if you have a home based business. You want to have the creativity necessary to offer products and services that stand out from products and services offered by your competitors. You want to find creative ways to attract customers.

The attributes listed above are very helpful if you want to have a successful home based business. If you have some or all of these attributes, you could be well on your way to success.
