You’ve heard of the thrill of the chase; why not the thrill of the chase lounge? 

Auctions offer unique pieces rich in history and the chance to get high-quality items at competitive prices. 

At Gray’s Auctioneers, every auction is a chance to discover treasures that transform your space. Here are our seven most exciting reasons to buy furniture at auction.

1- Furniture at Auctions is Usually One-of-a-Kind

Everyone loves to show off their unique, one-of-a-kind items, and auctions are treasure troves for just that! 

You might not be able to find that exact wall clock you loved from your best friend’s house in any old store, so instead, go for a singing, Swiss,  18th-century cuckoo clock you could snag for a great deal at auction. 

The distinctive charm of pieces bought at auction will have everyone wanting to know where you got every great piece you bring into your home.

2- Auction Furniture is High-Quality (Not That Assemble-It-Yourself Stuff)

We’re not trying to knock on the futon you got for your first apartment in college, we’re just saying that as your taste evolves, so may the furniture you buy!

The quality of the furniture found at auctions is often much higher than anything you can find at retail outlets for similar prices. Auction items are often crafted by artisans with real materials which are only found in high end products today, like mahogany or cherry wood, real springs in sofas and gorgeous real fabrics like silk, cotton and wool.

So when the time is right, and ye ole faithful futon/sofa is on its last leg, take a peek at our auction and see if a more stable piece awaits you.

3- Save Up to 80% On Retail Prices by Buying at Auction

One of the most exciting aspects of buying furniture at auction is the deals, deals, deals. 

Auctions offer you the chance to bid on items, which can lead to prices lower than the retail value. 

The competitive pricing makes this high-quality furniture more accessible, allowing you more opportunities to bring home quality items.

4- Buy Now, Invest in Your Future

Quality furniture could be an intelligent investment. 

As time goes on, well-kept antique and vintage furniture mayappreciate, increasing its value to you whether you keep it as an heirloom piece or sell it to its next home. 

By purchasing pieces at auction, you are definitely enhancing your living space aesthetically, and maybe fiscally too, and who doesn’t love that?

5- Buying Furniture at Auction is Sustainable

We’ve all heard reduce, reuse, recycle. Buying secondhand furniture gives you a moment to break free from the cogs of mass manufacturing and waste. 

Buying at auction contributes to a more sustainable world while simultaneously bringing beautiful furniture into your home.

6- Auction Furniture is Hand-Curated by Experts

At Gray's, we are meticulous about our selections, curating and featuring what we find to be the best pieces available to put to auction. Our experts evaluate and verify quality and authenticity, providing you the buyer with confidence and peace of mind when making a purchase.
