About us
Headquartered in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, our company is a recognized, innovative downsizing firm helping seniors achieve their downsizing goals. In our consultation process, we develop a specific plan which will be used to identify, value, and dispose of antiques, collectibles, and real estate.
Showcase Auctioneers & Appraisers
A division of Showcase Antique Center, Inc., started January, 2004 to auction antiques, fine arts, estates, vintage collectibles including automobiles and real estate. We provide proficient and confidential service to private clients, professional fiduciaries, executors, and advisors for the appraisal and sale of personal property assets. We provide advice and assistance for all appraisal and auction services.
Showcase Antique Center, Inc.
Established in 1990 to market fine antiques and vintage collectibles. Since then, we have become a resource for senior citizens and others to properly value their antiques, jewelry, paintings, furniture, and other vintage collectibles through our free appraisal days. And, if they so desire, to consign those items with us for sale.
All items consigned to us for sale are marked with our estimate of value. We only reduced a price with the consignor's consent. If a customer makes an offer on an item, that offer is passed along to the consignor with our recommendation.
Our outstanding team has the credentials and experience to help you get to where you want to go.
