Wonderful Buying Experience at Gray's Auctioneers!
We could not be more pleased with our purchase at Gray's Auctioneers September 6th sale. The auction was most enjoyable with a nice mix of really interesting antiques. The lorgnette we won was perfectly described with excellent accompanying images. The auction was smoothly conducted and move along at a nice pace. Payment was a breeze. Our lorgnette was expertly packed and shipped out quite promptly. We are looking forward to participating in the next Gary's Auctioneers sale. Definitely a FIVE STAR auction house!
