I've
been
to
the
Vogt
Auction
house
twice
now,
once
for
fine
art
and
another
for
the
recent
(August
2023)
Hecho
en
Mexico
auction.
They
get
in
beautiful
pieces,
many
of
amazing
quality.
The
pieces
are
on
display
for
about
a
week
before
the
auction
so
there
is
a
good
opportunity
to
see
what
is
to
be
auctioned
in
advance.
Every
person
in
the
place,
including
the
guys
in
the
warehouse
seems
to
have
an
extraordinary
knowledge
of
the
arts.
There
are
many
content
specialists
that
cover
the
gamut
of
their
sales,
including
fine
arts,
folk
arts,
furniture,
guns,
jewelry
and
even
oddities
such
as
Samurai
warrior
costumes,
giant
pineapple
sculptures,
well
known
artists
and
obscure
ones.
In
these
auctions
"everything
goes"
and
they
mean
it....if
there
is
someone
there
(or
online)
that
is
breathing
and
can
raise
their
card,
the
item
will
sell.
Interesting
things
happen
in
such
a
place!
The
auction
itself
is
really
entertaining.
The
owner,
Gene
Vogt
is
there
for
a
few
hours,
and
he
is
so
funny
it
would
be
worthwhile
to
go
just
to
hear
what
he
will
say.
His
son,
Rob
Vogt
is
the
auctioneer
and
he
gets
in
on
the
humor
with
his
father....good
naturedly
parrying
his
father's
jokes
while
the
auction
goes
on.
It
is
a
family
business
and
I
gather
the
whole
family
is
involved
and
show
up
for
the
auction.
Rob
is
not
a
scary
auctioneer...he
makes
it
easy
to
get
involved
and
to
make
bids....although
once
he
says
"sold"
it
is
final.
The
people
are
very
helpful
and
efficient
and
helped
me
get
my
purchases
in
my
car
and
were
very
accurate
in
getting
the
correct
lots
for
me.
Everyone
is
respectful,
helpful
and
give
the
best
customer
service
experience
I've
had
in
a
long
time.
