I’ve read some of the other reviews and it looks like Sharpless has made some improvements over the years. When they test a product, they usually list “tested” in the subject line. I have seen a.
This is an absolutely atrocious auction site, you name me one single auction house in the whole country that takes 50% from the sellers plus I don’t even tell you about that in advance you’re.
As I’ve mentioned in previous reviews, it really takes a lot for me to leave a 1-star review. It’s actually much harder to write such a review and this may be my longest review to date, but here.
Purchased two items over weekend 10/15/22. Won Lot # : 6389 – 108 Sq Ft Waterproofing Membrane for $40. Stopped on Tuesday over noon hour. This is within 4 hours of the opening following my.

Art City: Finding the art of Sharpless auctions

There are two things to know about Sharpless Auctions when you enter, and they both have to do with art: The first is that you have to be prepared to know how unprepared you are, and the second is that the meaning of it all is abstract and pretty much entirely up to you, regardless of the fact that the roads to that meaning mean you’re probably going to end up spending some kind of money.



It’s the third warehouse that might be the strangest—the “not fucking around” warehouse—filled with tools that range from spades and rakes to chainsaws and augers; full-sized industrial kitchen equipment or the kinds of things that might be central to a build-your-own apocalypse bunker. There are many older men in hats and camo jackets or overalls out here.

“Sure, Sharpless is a good place for art. It’s a good place for a lot of things,” says Sharon Dooley, one of the women who assigns numbers to auction-goers and rings up their purchases at the end of the night. We talk about the wooden, marble-topped bedroom dresser with a sink and faucet built into it within eyeshot of the front desk, and she says something that may as well be about going to an art gallery.
“You can always find something fantastic. The only things you won’t find here are animals, livestock. You’ll never know what you might find here—there aren’t many good surprises anymore.”
Behind me, no one bids on a ‘90s tube TV. “No value,” the auctioneer declares. “Move on.”
