Why Pay Retail? Retail vs Auction Price Deals
Looking for a steal of a deal? Buy your modern furnishings at auction.
Who's got a bit of a shopping problem? An online shopping problem? Do you put tons of things in you virtual cart and then leave it there languishing? Furnishing a home when you are a millennial on a budget is tough. That Lamp you love on Pinterest may end up costing hundreds of dollars. The best way to get that stylish look on a budget is to buy items at auction! Here are three great examples of items you can buy in our upcoming June 7th multi estate auction for a fraction of retail price.
1. Lamps
vs. West Elm MSRP $199
2. Fine China
vs Bed Bath & Beyond MSRP $99
How many people do you know getting married this year? Many people still register for formal china. At nearly $100 a place setting, it can get very expensive. Fine china can often be found at your local auction house and you can often purchase an entire set for less than what you’d pay for a place setting at retail.
3. Furniture
vs. Corner Avenue Furniture MSRP $373
Auctions aren’t just for grandma's old furniture. Bar height tables are all the rage these days, but buying retail can almost cost you a month’s rent. Auction houses are full of vintage and contemporary furnishings to decorate any home on a budget. These pieces are often name brand items which will sell for a fraction of what you’d pay online.
