👍👍 This auction house is classy. I have only attended two auctions but I was really impressed with the quality of the items that were being auctioned. I "won" the three Victorian-like lamps shown in the pictures below for $40 ... $40 for all three! They are so beautiful! I also "won" the oval lyre... People often mention auction,

    This auction house is classy. I have only attended two auctions but I was really impressed with the quality of the items that were being auctioned. I "won" the three Victorian-like lamps shown in the pictures below for $40 ... $40 for all three! They are so beautiful! I also "won" the oval lyre table ... hope I can locate a matching one for a reasonable price. UPDATE: Made a return visit. This time I "won" a French night stand for $35 and a dark cabinet with an elk on the front for $50. Not sure if I got a great deal on the elk cabinet but I like it.

    Like 2 weeks ago my mom & i went to an estate sale that vogt was having in alamo heights, we bought a few things and on the way out we saw a painting, it was priced 150 but i got it for just over 100 bucks. When i was loading it in my car i noticed the stein mart sticker for 59 bucks. I thought about taking it right back (which i should have) but i didnt want to embarass anyone, i textd rob from home and sent him a photo of the stein mart sticker, long story short he agreed to send me back 46 bucks via venmo or cash. But i left to canyon lake i couldnt go back. Well my venmo isnt working, i gave rob my cashapp applepay and fb pay info and he refuses to send me the refund via those platforms, i even showed him i cant use venmo. I been patient.

    I recently acquired two JJ Audubon prints and was curious if they were original lithographs or prints and was interested in auctioning them as well. I came in and spoke with the art appraiser and even though mine are not originals or valuable for that matter they still treated me with respect and were very welcoming to the auction house. I had a great experience and I even looked around a bit and saw some amazing furniture, firearms and cool antique collectibles. I would recommend Vogt auction galleries.

    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.

    This is the best auction house in the city. They have the quality and quantity. They have an easy setup to register and participate in the auctions. When picking up items, it is easy too. The people are nice and polite. I've never felt intimidated here to participate in their auctions. They also have preview days. You can see and inspect items you are interested in. You can actually touch the items, including jewelry.

    I was a seller. They held onto my coins for many months. They didn't promote it, they didn't let prebidding happen. I was told it would be 3 separate lots. When the auction finally did happen, they condensed my lots into 2. They sold the 1 gold coin on its own, and everything else in the second lot. The gold coin went well below the melt value. Not to mention the errors the coin had. The coin guy said he just stuck them in there without notice. He just wanted to sell them. And i left them some silver tie tacs for the next auction. I have yet to receive any money from them. I will never ever do business with them again.

    Great products and good auction platform. Backoffice is horrible. It usually takes a week to receive a correct invoice and 2-3 weeks for shipment. The entire process should take 7-10 days. I continue to use them because they have good stuff, but holy smokes the backoffice is terrible. As long as you have a month to wait for your item, they are aces...

    I took my 20yr old Friedman Brothers Convex Mirror back in December 2023. For Auction in Jan 1,2024. Decided to withdraw my mirror from Auction. I believed they started the estimate to low/ they lost an original paper that was left with them when I took the mirror, they responded by telling me it probably went in the trash(now I just have a copy of that paper that Ms.Kim mailed out to me at my request) Thank you Ms. Kim.I would have preferred the original that I left with them.And the last thing to find out the measurements of my mirror were way off. I'm happy I made the right decision by with drawing my mirror.May you have a blessed day. Sincerely Ms. Atkinson

👍👍 Been visiting since they were on Hildebrand years ago. Good place if you are remodeling old home or to reuse material. I wanted exterior display for a patio area and found perfect old door to hang up.

👍👍 Many unique ladies items suitable for spring and Fiesta, kinda pricey. The guy at the register was not very friendly at all, nothing like his commercials on Facebook kinda surly, really. Maybe because we had 9 year olds?
