Relax and enjoy yourself. They want to help you.
DuMouchelle's aways provides accurate and complete information on lots but are also very willing to answer questions. They have access to important estates and deliver something for everyone. Their team are friendly and helpful. The location is easy to get to, but parking may be a challenge and the neighborhood isn't the best. But once you're inside, you'll be glad you came.

A very satisfying experience.
First online auction. After figuring out how to pay for the items directly and arranging shipping with a local UPS shipper, the pens were received very quickly, well packed, and in excellent condition. The quality of the pens exceeded my expectations. Everyone at DuMouchelles was very professional and patient in addressing my questions and concerns. Overall, a first rate experience with DuMouchelles and I will bid again

Very responsive!
Called Du because someone was trying to scam me by saying that delivery had been attempted and I had to pay extra fees. DuMouchelles immediately responded by checking shipment status. They were like detectives!
