This auction house has changed significantly over the years. In the past, auctions could last all…read moreday, with auctioneers actively engaging the crowd to drive bids higher. In the box lot area, there was even an auctioneer--an older man with a cane--who might spend 45 minutes or more on a single box. There was also a small kitchen where you could buy freshly cooked meals, which added to the overall experience. Today, the approach is very different. I see little to no online advertising for their auctions compared to other auction houses, aside from their website and a limited group they notify directly. Auctions now move quickly: items start low and end fast, with minimal effort to increase the final price. While this format can benefit buyers, sellers should be cautious. With the current pace and lack of active bidding, it is unlikely that items will achieve strong selling prices.

My son and I have been going to Brown Bros. for years. You NEVER know what you might find…read more Ephemera, books, jewelry, household goods, paintings, games, tools, coins and much more. Even if you don't buy anything, it's worth the trip. Blaine is full of great stories. There is always at least a few items that surprise. The auctioneers do their best to get the most for their consignors but there are still bargains to be had (if you have knowledge and a little vision!). Definitely part of the week for which I always look forward. The people who work there are all a delight. Usually about 4 auctions going on simultaneously so you have to stay on your toes! J.

I called Briggs and told them what I had over the phone, then sent photos .. I got a response that…read moreessentially said we are looking for paintings and designer high end goods( I had 4 pair of Manolo Bhlanik heels) . when I emailed back to question they now said we only want estates of over $10 ,000. I've sent them quite a few customers over the years, but never again. left a bad taste in my mouth. bad business. I'm done.

My mother and I had an excellent experience with Briggs as sellers of antiquities. My mom was…read moredownsizing into a smaller residence, and had to give up many precious antiques that she and her mother had collected for years. Everything that Briggs did to handle the estate was top-notch: from initial communication about the process and their pricing structure, to carefully packing and moving the items, to researching and assessing each piece, and finally, to selling the items with detailed, accurate descriptions, then providing a detailed list of what sold, for how much, and a check sent within a month of the last sale. Josie from Briggs was great both on the phone and over email (and in person, per my mom). My mom said she couldn't be happier with Briggs - even if some items didn't fetch as much money as we had hoped they would, we felt like everything was handled very professionally and fairly - and sometimes, antiques just don't go for as much as you'd think they would. It's a finicky market. Many thanks to Josie and the Briggs team for their outstanding professionalism and service!
