Abell Auction is a family business, doing the family thing proud!
Each encounter, up and down the staff team, has been pleasant, personal and businesslike. Would that every business entity had this kind of spirit.

Lost and not found by Abell Auction House
Abell contacted me to see where the missing pieces could be. It took a little while and parts were found and packaged up by Abell and sent to me. Well done Abell! Happy to do business with you!

This is an excellent company!
I don't normally write reviews, but I had a fantastic set of experiences with this company and decided to write one. I had never done an online auction and got on one day to bid during a live auction. My items were coming up and I figured out I was not set up to bid and I frantically contacted the company and the owner, Don, immediately emailed me back and set me up. So I bid on my items and won some, paid for my items (which happened quickly and easily) and then realized I had no plan to get them home (large items). So I recontacted Don and asked for help picking a shipper. He was again very helpful. I ended up being in contact with several shippers (I chose the UPS store 2778 in Montebello, Byron Chan. He has packing videos posted on youtube and is also fantastic to work with!) because the items I was trying to ship were large and the cost of shipping was very high. Ultimately I recontacted Don and he helped me figure out a solution. He really did not need to do all the things he did for a (clueless) customer like that, but he did! How frequently does that happen anymore?? Anyway, this is a great company and I highly recommend them!

Thorough descriptions with great photos
I have been buying from Abell's for a number of years now, and am always impressed with their knowledge, and the thoroughness of the their descriptions. Since buying during these panedemic time, when I am not always able to view the pieces in person their descriptions, and photos have been invaluable. They are always highly professional, efficient, and I highly recommend them.

Best auction house in town
This is the best auction house in town. I always find a gem at Abell at a good price, and to top it all, management treats you like you are a part of their family!

Good experience overall
Happy with my purchase, good communication with auction house. If I can recommend shipper it would be UPS store2778. Contact Byron, you will not be disappointed. Very professional, tells how it is and does what he said will do. The shipment was packaged like it would cost a million dollars and your life would depend on it. Excellent communication as well.

Highly recommended auctioneer
First experience with Abell-bid and then pay at pick-up. They seem to be an efficient, professional auctioneer with established procedures and years of experience. Highly recommended.

Beware the “not inspected out of frame”
Condition was described as “good,” but turned out to be glued to a backing board-potentially reducing the value by 60-80 % without restoration. To their credit, Abell’s divulged this unfortunate fact before shipping, allowing me to cancel. Art by blue-chip artists expected to hammer at near retail MUST be inspected out of frame to check for gluing, skinning, trimming, and any authenticating stamps (the Gemini G. E. L. ink stamp should have been on the back). I may well be banned from future Abell’s auctions for not proceeding with the purchase-but no-one should end up paying thousands of dollars for a near-worthless piece of cardboard due to an understatement of the true condition-intentional or otherwise. Newbie buyers take note!

Their staff does not know what is going on
We drove to pick up our purchased lot and the staff could not get their records straight and would not release the item. Now we have to make a second trip

SO SO.
Spent 30 seconds buying the lot, 5 minutes paying for it, and several hours arranging for pack and ship. Once received, there was a defect in the lot

Beautiful items but only if you can pick up
I received prompt response to questions prior to the auction. After winning the auction, and trying to arrange pick up-no response to any communications and dismissive treatment on the phone. Trying to utilize one of their recommended shippers resulted in 2 + weeks of aggravation, repeated promises for picking up the item and it just never happened. Eventually had to pay 2x as much to have a white glove service arrange for pick up. Knowing what I know now, I would not have bid on this item.

Great auction experience!
Abell was great auction house to deal with. Shipping was slow due to COVID but when it arrived-well packed and shipped promptly when it was finally picked up. Art work matched description and pictures. Welcomed addition to our collection. Look forward to participating in future art auctions.
