Handline’s Auctions has been instrumental in helping us with our mother’s estate. We couldn’t have moved and sold her household goods without them. John and his team have been nothing but professional. Their quick, as well as thorough communication of every detail during the process is a level of customer service that is extremely rare today. Additionally, they’ve meticulously provided “sold item” invoices and checks promptly after the auctions. If you’re looking for an auction company, Handline’s Auctions is your team.
James, thank you so much for the amazing review. We are happy to hear that we have made this process easier for you.
