Buying tips for Hartford auctions
- Buyer's premium. Most houses add a buyer's premium (a percentage of the hammer price) and sometimes an online-bidding fee. Put the total, plus any sales tax, into your max bid.
- Preview days. Go to preview or ask for condition photos. Look for repairs, chips, missing parts and replaced hardware.
- Before you bid. Read the terms: payment methods, pickup dates and shipping. Many sales are "as is, where is" with no returns.
- Know your stop. Set a max for each lot before the sale and keep to it; live bidding moves fast.
- Local note. Connecticut sales tax (6.35%) applies at many sales; our max bids include it where it applies.
Bid with a plan: our Auction Price Guide
An Auction Price Guide gives you an estimated value, recent sold prices and your max bid for every lot you pick, so you know where to stop before the bidding starts. We do the research; you just bring the sale link.

This is an estimate, not an appraisal. Max bids are a ceiling, not a target.
