Labor Day Auction..

Brandon had a sweet little sale today.. one thing about a Brandon

Otto auction.. he’s clear, fast and fair.

One of the best things about today’s auction was that it was held

under Wellsville’s large shade trees.

One of my pet peeves about going to an auction is

being late.  Today I left a little late.. and had to “fight”

to see stuff.  When I say fight I don’t mean really get in

an argument.. you just have to say lots of “excuse me”

and wait around to look at the jun

They had doors.. and lots of furniture..

I really wanted those platters..

See those beaded things?

I got them.. 🙂

There were probably 50 old hankies in here.. I bid on them,

but they went for over 60.00.

This is a tiny sample linens they had.. they all went pretty high too.

Lot’s of old Christmas stuff.

Faux fruit..

I really wanted this yellow cabinet.. #3 wanted the polka dot boxes.

(We didn’t get them)

I wanted the big flower print.. but I just couldn’t

pay the prices they were getting here today 🙂

Here’s #4 he found some cool leaves that have a fuzzy

feel to them.  In the background you can see #3 she’s

chatting it up about her American Girl Doll.. and the

new American Girl Store that opened in Overland Park..

(more to come on the American Girl store)

Here’s all of Brandon’s upcoming auctions!

**I forgot to take photos of all the junk I got!.. maybe I’ll get that done tomorrow!



An Evening at the Auction

I went to an auction in Wellsville last night.  Here’s my evening in photos..

Brandon Otto auctions, wellsville, kansas, eBay Queen

Here’s an overview of the stuff before the auction started. Do you see the

red arrow?  That’s #2  checking the place out.

Here he’s using the phone to see if we should buy this or that..

They had lots of jewelry, but most of it was damaged or missing

rhinestones.  Here’s what I did bought!

I bought this flat because of  the leather wallets.  Some guy wanted to buy

a couple of them from me while I was paying.. but I said no..

I bought the green Tonka to display in my kitchen with my other green

stuff… but everyone thinks I should sell it.  Silver measuring cup

is mine 🙂

Here’s an overview.

Bavaria covered dish and some Nippon cups and saucers.

I did get my plate I wanted!  Do you see the milk glass pendant light?  It’s old

and pretty cool.  The linens are for me too.

Auction Time…

I WANT THIS… BAD..

I’m pretty excited.. I’ll be headed to an auction this evening.  If you like auctions.. (like I like auctions).. you’ll want to know what they will be selling..

Here’s the sale bill (I’ve Underlined the stuff I want:
