The crowds are back. I went to the Aetna Call Center liquidation that Bairds auctioned off in February. I was after a commercial refrigerator for my Italian Mens club. They had several. Jeff Baird ran a great auction. He had something for everyone. They had some great deals in exercise equipment. I wish I had the room for it. I've attended Bairds Auction for years now. I've come away with several treasures. I highly recommend them. Come out and enjoy the fun!

This is a good old boy auction which has improved greatly over the years. Employees work very hard and you can tell who is helpful and who is not. There is ALOT of inventory with which to deal, so there is a wide variety to look through.As a consignor too, only 2 pieces I brought in to sell disappeared. One was stolen by a person looking at the lots before the auction. Today there are preview hours, security cameras, employees at posted watch points and loyal customers who would not only turn the thief in, they would handcuff her too. Just sayin'. I never brought the subject up with anyone there. I knew they would not handle it responsibly.I agree that the owner is full of himself, that is his charm. On the flip side, I have seen a different person. One person, at his first auction, told the owner that the lot he won was missing a part ..... someone had walked off with it. He paid $2.00 for the lot. The owner actually told the young man, "What do you expect for $2.00". That was the end of that. The owner was feeding this man's education of the real world....Fresno is still a small town. Word gets around. We know. Just sayin".

Terrible place to use to auction off your items. I took 12 boxes of antiques and collectibles and 10 old large frames and instead of selling them on an antique sale date they sold them on an everyday sale date so all the items didn't sell. Most of the items were 60 to 100 years old. Very disappointed in this business, he will never measure up to the old owner. I heard that he only takes care of his friends and I believe it. I could of made more money selling at a yard sale. I made $41.00 for my items. Total rip-off. I give his business a minus 5.

i took them nice things,these guys broke my stuff, and really didn't give a rip, a real f u attitude from the owner and all (male) employees. the auctioneer charges big money for appraisals, but he doesn't know jack, he cant even pronounce half the stuff he sells. I shudder to think people are trusting values he places on their stuff. AVOID
