With another $1.5 million auction in the books, Hake’s Auctions is getting ready for their next premier event of 2020. The long-running auction house is already gathering consignments and would love to add your collectibles to it, according to Hake’s President Alex Winter.
“Contact Hake’s today! Consignments are arriving daily and now is the time to reserve your space in the upcoming sale. Let Hake’s put our 52 years in the collectibles auction industry to work for you by consigning your items now,” Winter said.
Hake’s will match or beat any offer for the right items, so they encourage consignors to contact them before committing items elsewhere.
They are actively seeking material in all pop culture and Americana collecting categories and have seen a dramatic increase in demand for original comic art; especially comic book covers and pages, high grade and key comic books from all eras, political items, sports cards and memorabilia, movie posters, concert posters, Star Wars and superhero action figures, as well as vintage Disneyana from the 1930s.
Since 1967, Hake’s has set the standard for researching and marketing collectibles, as America’s first collectibles auction house. Their catalogs and website, combined with their cutting edge marketing, ensure that material will be seen by worldwide clientele. Select pieces are candidates for being featured on the catalog cover, guaranteeing maximum exposure. This combination continues to set world record prices in every auction and Hake’s wants consignors’ treasured collectibles to be the next record breaker.
Hake’s showcases consignments across multiple platforms – print ads (including exclusive advertising in Diamond Comic Distributors’ PREVIEWS catalog), internet and social media campaigns, as well as in-person appearances at pop culture conventions.
To ensure that consignments are not forced to compete against similar pieces, they limit the number of like items offered in each auction.
Demand for outstanding material has never been higher. Contact Hake’s today to find out about special rates for exceptional collectibles and about securing a spot for consignments in their next auction.
“Call or email me today about your items. It’s important for us to receive auction items as soon as possible, to provide ample time to promote your consignments,” said Hake’s Consignment Manager Kelly McClain. “We’ve already started working on our next auction and are always looking for quality material.”
