Believe it or not, you can buy and sell almost anything at an auction. Although most auction houses and larger one-off auction events have their own niches and industries they typically cater to, each year there’s always a number of auctions that see some pretty incredible items make their way across the block.

Some were wildly expensive, others unique, and some more bizarre than anything. 2018 was another prime example of more than a few very noteworthy sales you don’t really see every day.

open garage with items stacked against the walls

The holidays are always a favorite time of year for many, but they can also cause quite a bit of stress by the time January rolls around. Not only do you have to worry about taking all those decorations down, you almost always end up with a lot more stuff lying around than you had previously.

You know how it goes. Between the presents, impulse holiday buys, and seasonal decor, your home is suddenly left with many things that you don’t know what to do with after all the boxes are put back up. Before you realize it, the garage is full, the spare room has become a closet of its own, and there’s no end in sight.

Planning an estate sale is not only time consuming, but it’s also a lot of work. Organizing the items, pricing them, finding someone to help facilitate the sale for you—it’s no easy task. In addition to all the work, you still have to market your estate sale and hope that people show up to purchase your items.

Restaurant auctions are fun to attend, especially if you are a fellow restaurant owner. Being able to purchase large restaurant equipment for a competitive price is a great opportunity to expand your already existing restaurant.

Whether you are moving or closing your business, liquidating your items can seem daunting and stressful, especially if you are a niche business.  Instead of finding a way to get rid of these items yourself and risking the possibility of losing money in the process, Dakil can auction your business liquidation items to an audience that is truly interested, using a variety of methods.

Privately selling your car is a lot of work – after you find out how much your car is worth, you have to decide how much you want to sell it for, find an interested buyer, work with their bank, and transfer the title. While privately selling a vehicle can sometimes make it seem like the seller is in more control, they still might not get the most money for the sale and have to spend hours making sure the transfer and sale runs smoothly.

For a smooth, quick way to sell your vehicle and still get your money’s worth, taking it to auction could be your best option. The auction process is fast, yet thorough, and can still give you the value that you expect when selling a vehicle. How? At Dakil, it’s because we have a streamlined process that sets your car auction up for success.
