    Default Salavating over the idea of going to an auction

    It's a large estate auction contents include:

    all kinds of lovely antique furniture
    (French etegere, curved front china cabinet, etc.)
    all sorts of paintings and decor items
    collectables
    bronzes by Remmington and other artists....
    OMG I want to go, but don't know if I can control myself
    I really don't "need" anything, just want to go and see how it sells and if there are any bargains. (Ok, I reckon that qualifies as recreational shopping..... )

    I used to love making it a day at an auction. It can be very entertaining watching every thing sell and what it sells for.

    I love auctions too. I love looking at the things and being able to touch them before the auction.
