PRODUCTS & SERVICES:

Our groundbreaking policies include:

"No Risk Consignment Policy."Â If any lot fails to sell, then we charge absolutely no commissions or fees.

Security in buying at auction - we will stand behind everything we sell as described in the catalog.

Maximum safety from damage or breakage. Every lot will be digitally projected onto our full size theater screen during the sale. We will eliminate the all too common problem of damaged merchandise caused by physically displaying each item as it is offered for sale. All lots will remain on display next door in our auction preview room during the sale.

Expanded preview schedules: All previews will continue during the entire sale. Since our salesroom is separate from the adjacent preview facility, there is no need to discontinue the preview during our auctions. For our monthly general auctions, the preview schedule commences at 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on the Friday & Saturday prior to the monthly Alameda Point Antiques and Collectibles Faire and the day of the Faire from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. On the day of each scheduled auction, the preview will be opened for that sale at 9:00 AM and will remain open for the entire sale.

Education in Art and Antiques. ABB will present, in our luxurious sales room, a constant and ever-changing slate of seminars and guest lecturers from all over the world.
Full worldwide Internet access to each auction. ABB's custom designed, user friendly website makes auction preview at home easy and informative.
