Anthony put Mom's " unauctionable items" his words...into four contractor bags and put them on Mom's lawn for trash. One evening I tried to pull into Mom's garage and it was filled with someone else's uniforms,handmade jewelry,irons, mannequin hands,shoe stretchers,etc without my permission. Disrespectful. Disgusting. After months of him saying "IM STILL LOOKING IT UP" ...I decided to have the last of my mom's items returned. A Very bad experience..the worst I've ever had from a socalled professional on top of a bad situation

Not worth going into the situation;however word of mouth is a powerful tool. My mother's situation is similar to the other one star reviews and don't bother with the rebuttal. Not worth the time and go ahead and sue my mother for the funds you think your due. Get in line with all the other debts the poor 87 year old has developed. I mean you no ill judgements, wishes or harm. You know what you did and should be ashamed.

My neighbor just used this “company” and what a train wreck! The company assured him they could sell so many things, barely sold anything and left him with a ton of stuff and right before his move and charged an outrageous amount. We couldn’t find the auction online after he gave us his business card and told us the date. Absolutely shiesty company and would definitely not recommend them.

My wife died. I needed to empty house out in 3 weeks. Anthony said he could do it. Two weeks later NOTHING was gone. They did nothing but sell a few trinkets and sent me a check for $70.55. Anthony and Premier Auction is a complete waste of time and money. I ended up giving everything to Davis Thrift Store in Nokomis. Premier Auction is the most expensive mistake I've ever made. I'll pray for Anthony. Dan

Do not hire this guy. I selected him because of his sales pitch. I was selling many gold coins, because the market has been so awesome, I wanted to cash in a bit. Most other auction sites have been selling $20 gold coins for over $2500 each, those auction houses market very well. I was told by Anthony, the owner, that he would aggressively market and list my coins in many online locations for hundreds of buyers to see. I agreed to a 20% flat fee, which seemed reasonable for the marketing he allegedly was going to do for me. The coins listed, and sold without any reserve. Unfortunately, they were not marketed well at all and my 20 + coins sold for less than $1650 each. After his buyer 20% and seller 20% commissions, he made more than I did, and I actually lost money on my overall investment in these coins. I would NEVER recommend nor ever use this guy again.

It was a pleasure working with Anthony and Premier Auction house. I look forward to doing business with them again! The whole staff was helpful, friendly, and honest.

If I could give Anthony no stars, I would. Please do not let him touch any of your items and definitely don't let him take something away to research it. It will at bare minimum cost you 100$ to simply get it back and good luck at getting the information on the "research" that was done because he will just google it like you have anyway. He took us for a very good amount in his last "auction". The pictures are from that auction that only the people there and maybe another family member was bidding on because no one else could get on to even make an account to bid on things. We had 3 people try and were not able to bid at the auction. I guess when you have the stuff like we had, that was valuable and he could resell, he can only let who he wants to bid on the items. A 20K bracelet was sold for $60.00, even after we told him the next day of meeting him that we would like our things back and really felt like Anthony pushed us to sign the contract, when there is about 10 minutes left in the meeting and we had to go. He pushed it on us, was a smooth talker and wouldn't give us our items back without paying for them. Items were not returned until 3 weeks after the auction & as I write this review, we still haven't seen the 1k check from the proceeds. Oh and also, you will pay for advertising and what ever he wants to take out of the proceeds. A lousy 6k sold and we take home hopefully 1k. And those are the facts.In response I will post the actual paperwork that shows that we had to buy back our items as well as my signature on the contract. Our Only hope is that no one else has to suffer the financial loss that we did. If you had such a great following and business then why would you have to do what you did to us?

We have dealt with Anthony & Premier Auctions for the past six (6) years. His was the first site we visited when we took an interest in 'on-line' bidding. Regardless of the many locations he has used for his auctions; item descriptions have always been accurate & start-up pricing in line with product. When lucky enough to win an item we have been pleased to see the condition was as listed. He is a personable individual, who takes pride in his business, values his clients/customers, and always operates under the best of business standards.

Wonderful experiences with Premier Auction House. I had been trying to sell items on Facebook and Craigslist with not much luck. Anthony came and packed it all up and I got my room back. Some items even sold for more than I was asking on craigslist. Wonderful experience and not much work on my part.

One of the Worst Experiences of my life. I lost money and my heirlooms. No, my items were not junk, if they were, then Premier Auction House would not have taken them, right? I had high value named and signed pieces. I am not going to drone on and on over every detail of my horrible experience, you don't know me, so do your due diligence. Go to their auctions before you sign on with them and see how many people show up and how much items actually sell for. Don't pay anything to sell your own items, you each get a percentage and that should be it, right? You should never have to take out your credit card or checkbook. Get your own moving help or moving quotes. Don't be rushed. Please, please, get a second opinion.

Premier auction has done a great job in helping me through a difficult time. I had a hard decision to make on behalf of my dear friend.... Anthony and his staff are helpful and knowledgeable ... always returned my phone calls promptly, answered any questions I had, made extra trips out to the home when needed... everything has been done as agreed upon... Anthony calls me if there were any changes, and keeps me updated... greatly appreciated.... I highly recommend Premier Auction House.... Thank you for all your honesty, hard work and dedication.... great job!!!!

I thought Premiere Auction House was terrific! I hired them to auction off the contents of a house I had listed for sale in Miami Springs, Florida. This house was an estate of two older folks who had so many items and it was a daunting task to organize the items and get ready for an Auction .Anthony gave the action all his expertise and what was not sold of value, he transported back to Englewood and sold on line. All the money and items were accounted for during this estate sale and all proceeds were sent to the heirs of the estate. No questions were asked as all valuables were accounted for.
