I recently contracted with Gateway Gallery Auction to liquidate my late father's estate. John Kohler, his family and staff handled everything. They packed, transported and sold my father's personal property. They also sold 2 cars and a house for the estate. They are the hardest working people I have ever worked with. They are professional, knowledgeable, kind and caring. My calls were always answered promptly and any concerns were addressed asap.They go above and beyond to complete the job. I highly recommend Gateway Gallery Auction for all your auction needs. Thank you John.

Never know what you find. Prices are higher on the holidays if you can find another time to go. Good way to waste some time and get stuff you may or not need. They will hold on to your stuff for a few days and kind enough to give you a call. I would recommend they have a delivery service. All those trucks they must have some time to drop off stuff and not just pick up. I needed a moving truck and it cost $100. Fortunately I needed to move out of storage at the same time. Might be a good business for someone that has a truck and/or a trailer.

My first experience with Gateway Gallery Auction was excellent from start to finish. All of the 13 lots that I purchased were exactly as expected. While I would have appreciated a little more in the descriptions, it strikes me that this auction house is thorough in their assessment of items - and only adds detailed commentary if an anomaly is noted. Regardless of the detail in the written descriptions; I very much appreciated the quick and complete responses that I received to my five or so questions regarding specific lots. The front office folks were pleasant and easy to work with. I drove from almost 400 miles away to pick up my items in person - and was very pleased by the accommodating actions of the staff who were packing items for shipping to other customers. They gave me space in their work area to pack my own items and were very helpful. In summary, a good experience and an auction house that I will keep in mind for my future needs.

Owner Response

Great auction house. Staff answered our questions and was very friendly. Their process of moving sold items out of the way and holding it for them buyer was effective and very efficient. Had on line bidding. Food was excellent. I would highly recommend this business to manage your estate as well as a great place to bid on merchandise.

This is my first affiliation with Gateway Gallery Auction, however, I am truly impressed by their attention to customer needs and concerns. I had an emergent situation that occured the night before the auction and immediately contacted GGA. I had a very positive response and the resolution was immediate (with less than two hours to auction time!). I thank GGA for their support, empathy and drive to ascertain a bidder's concern is immediately addressed. Thank you GGA (and Ms. Kohler!) and I look forward to future auctions. Continued success in all your auctions. hm san antonio, tx

Family. The folks at Gateway Gallery (which is a family owned business) treated me like family. I had just lost my mom (my best friend, really) and I had to unfortunately auction off a lot of her things. I was heartbroken and overwhelmed and met with several different auction houses. One was very nice, but I didn't really connect with them and the other wouldn't help me in a timely manner unless I auctioned her house along with them (in my humble opinion very cold). My Aunt suggested Gateway Gallery and John came out to my mother's home, sat down with me at her kitchen table and talked to me like a human being. He even took the time to give me some encouragement. I knew then that this is the auction for us. They showed me and my mother's items respect. The gentleman that came to the house to take everything away were just the kindest, most hardworking souls. My mom had a lot of things (very clean and organized, but a lot of things) and they worked their tails off and didn't grumble once. Anything I requested (boxes to help pack things up, returning of bins after the sale, etc) they honored. The day of the sale I could not watch or be present. Thankfully, some family did that for me and they couldn't say enough good things about the auction and how things were handled. A week after the auction I came back to pick up the bins and John personally came out to greet me and had someone help us load the bins. John then handed me all the paperwork I needed for the lawyer and a check from the sale. He couldn't have been kinder and the entire process (while so super sad) couldn't have been easier. John and his family treated me with so much compassion every, single step of the way. So grateful my Aunt suggested them. I really don't know what I would've done without their guidance, kindness and help.

Owner Response
