Great people to work with! Well run auctions, great communication for pick up, and every now and then theres a fun description for an item, like a little Easter egg waiting to be found.

A very honest, helpful, trustworthy down to earth feel at home company. They look out for the people they work for to bring in the best sales results. Their insight as what to pair up with other items is a result of great experience. I was expecting to make a certain amount and brought in a full third more. Amazing results. Dont take it to a place just to get rid if it, give it to Bennett, everyone wins then.

This was my first online auction buying experience with Bennett's. The bidding was easy and fun, and my breakable items were carefully packaged and promptly shipped. Five stars!!!

I highly recommend Bennett Auction Service after working with them to sell my parents' personal property after they downsized. Adam, Trisha, and their team are very professional and worked hard to make the online auction a success. They are knowledgeable, respectful, and stayed in constant communication with me throughout the process. Would definitely work with them again!
