I used to go to O.J.'s auctions for years starting when he bought it from Gus Pacific. It used to…read morebe a day of entertainment and fun to watch OJ work his unique humor and magic with an auction crowd. Unfortunately, gone are those days and it's just another business that has gone by the wayside. It also has joined the ranks of businesses that used to be great but is best to bypass now. You can call and make sure someone will be there to take your consignment. Then drive and hour + to get there only to be told by the receptionist that neither of the 2 men that could except the items are there. "Can you contact them?" No, they are not answering the phones. Enough said. It's probably a blessing they were not there after reading the other Reviews on Yelp about them... You have been warned !!

Bottom line: lack of professionalism throughout the organization resulted in sales of less than 25% of what they reasonably should have been. Never again!

My Dad had been a collector his whole life. When he passed away I was facing a house and multiple…read moresheds packed to the rafters. Colorful Colorado Estate Sales was beside me the entire way, from sorting through everything and identifying treasures to selling online and on site to the accounting for the sales. They helped sort collections, and even tested some items in online sales to see if there was demand. Their experience with everything from antiques and collectibles to furniture to everyday household items was impressive. They helped group similar items together to create themed auctions, and then identified other items for an on-site sale. When I looked through the auction listings, I didn't recognize some of the items because of how fantastic the photos and lighting were. They handled the pickup, photography, selling, shipping, and the accounting for the sales. Without their compassion, dedication, and tenacity, I would still be sorting through everything. I can't recommend Colorful Colorado Estate Sales enough. The will the only estate sales company I will ever use.

There was also an empanada place across from the dumpling spot. The service was friendly and helpful. The dumplings (Nepalese momos) were delicious! They are steamed to order. They come with a flavorful tesame sauce which tasted like a mild but delicious curry, as well as two dipping sauces on the side. One is a spicy hot sauce, and the other is a peanut & cashew sauce. I had the beef dumplings and there were also chicken, vegetarian, and vegan options. Each serving of 10 dumplings with 3 sauces was only $10! What a great value for such tasty and unique for the area dish! There's a handful tables in the center of the marketplace, or you can order to go. It was nice to browse some of the neigboring boutiques as well.

The quick head nod kept the bidding going higher and higher. I asked if consignors were allowed to bid on their own items to jack up prices and was reluctantly told YES. It became quite clear that the auctioneer played the legitimate bidder against bids from the consignor. The true good ole boy network of a small town I guess. Legal in Colorado apparently, but very poor business practice and should be disclosed throughout the auction in my opinion. One time I mentioned significant hidden damage to the staff on an item that was coming up soon. They whispered to the auctioneer, but nothing was said when the item came up. Buyer beware always, but be especially careful with this auction house!
