My husband teases me when I have trouble remembering Van Metre. I usually say Van Halen. But, in my opinion, they are ROCK STARS. They have a wonderful facility to hold in person auctions, the staff is awesome, and the auctions run so smoothly. Plus, when purchasing online, their shipping is next to none. We can always find quality antiques for our store. Well worth the 3 hour drive. Thanks Fred and a big shout out to all your staff!!

A great outlet for true Midwest charm and hospitality. A well run auction with good reach to dealers, collectors and potential customers, online and in person at their well-appointed auction barn. During sales they handle Midwest antiques with the respect and explanation they deserve. I tell people with estates about them all the time. The highest bid is the final sale (no reserves) but they have a soft close, so that gives more room for bids to increase. If you have items to sell, their policy is to send a picture in email. Worth the try! Happy auctioning!

Bought 3 times, sold 3 times, and never disappointed. It's well run , you are made known how things work ; before , and after the auction. Very Satisfied.

My wife and I have attended VanMetre auctions over the course of 30 plus years. We always know that the auctions will be interesting and honest. VanMetre Auction serves its customers cordially and with integrity. Thanks Fred, family and staff.

Van Metre always puts on a great professional auction. The only drawback is the lack of seating.

I honesty felt they had a person planted to bid against me. Seemed very unusual that the same person would bid against me on every item. I ended up paying top dollar for the items I won. Very frustrating.

Staff was very helpful the day we arrived to preview an item that would be auctioned the next day.
