He has had the new business for awhile but I only learned of the Website on Tuesday.

My word that is quite the collection! Impressive to say the least
  

I got a sneak peek as I visited Bob and David Simmons a few weeks back in Richmond and it is definitely gonna be a great auction. Brother Bob himself has a very impressive Winchester collection and has been quite a good friend in helping me acquire some great Winchesters and other items for my commemorative museum! Bob and his son are great salt of the earth people for sure! I’m excited to bid in their auction but holding my breath the big guns don’t blow me out of the water like they did in the spring Richmond’s Auction with the Dennis Mack collection. I got a couple great items but couldn’t compete and lost out on most of my bids. To be clear though this is a Winchester memorabilia auction. I’m not sure there are any firearms in it. Good luck to all who bid!

25% BP !
  

Hi Chuck, it is 25% on LiveAuctioneers, or 20% everywhere else (HiBid, phone bidding, in person etc)

I wonder why the difference between Hibid and LA? They are typically the same. The only differences I have found is the BP is always cheaper if the auction has their own site. Like Rock island or Richmond. You can bid for either of those auctions on Proxibid, LA or Hibid but it will cost you 3 to 5% more in BP. 🤷‍♂️
