We generally run an auction every other Friday.

If you bring your items to us, they are clean, and you lot them as you’d like to sell them, the commission rate is 35%.

If we send our team to your house to pick up items, the commission rate is 50%. If items are in the basement, a $50 fee applies and must be paid the day of loading.

NOTE: Firearms sell for 15% commission rate and are sold through Pilsen Packrats.

We accept cash, card, and Venmo. We no longer accept checks unless we know the person.
