Excellent Communication
Accurate description and depiction of the piece, and when they said the damage wasn't as bad as it looks in the images, they were 100 % correct. Enjoyed our interactions and love the piece.

Ararity makes the auction experience easy, stress-free and fun. They're my favorite auction house.
As a buyer and seller with Ararity, I have always been pleased with my experience. These people are knowledgeable and very honest. I recommend Ararity to any buyer looking for a good deal, at a fair price, and I'd recommend Ararity to any seller who wants to get the best exposure and price for his/her possessions. Ararity gets an A +.

Ararity Made It Easy
I got an email notifying me that Ararity was hosting a pen sale (strong interest of mine) and I was able to go on their site, see what was available, and place several pre-bids. On the afternoon of the sale I was able to watch trends in the auction (clearly a handful of buyers were bidding on everything) so I decided which pens I'd prebid on to focus on (i. e., raise my bid). Of the 5 I was interested in I only won 1, but that was my decision-Ararity gave me all the info I needed to fairly and easily bid (or not) on all the pens. Pickup at their Lorton location was very easy (for someone coming from NoVA-short drive). All in all a very positive experience. I will certainly buy through Ararity again.

Average person has a chance to win.
Eclectic contents in auctions. Need to understand bidding process. Most action takes place in final minutes. There can be issues with pickup location. There are 2 Ararity locations, which are across a parking lot from each other. Therefore, pickup can be confusing because correct location depends on which firm is running the auction. Just because it says Ararity doesn't mean it is their auction. I can't explain here but but happened to me. There seem to be cooperating companies using the Ararity title. I had to go to a different location for each of the 2 items that I won.

All great except for shipping protocols
The photograph I purchased arrived perfectly, and was as described. The only slight challenge was having to deal with a third-party shipping company (UPS Store) which added quite a bit of time to receiving the order. Otherwise all was good.

Nice guitars
I bought two guitars from a large collection One was for a friend who is moving towards electric guitar from acoustic, the other I recognized as having Schecter parts and was from the 80’s. I was surprised that no one knew what the guitar was. During the Schecter “dream machine” days One could order parts and build their own Stratocaster or Schecter would build the “Dream Machine” for you. This guitar was one that was ordered in parts and built by someone who knew exactly what they were doing. The guitar is a monster to play and it came in a Fender ‘ 80’s thermometer style ABS plastic case. It sold for a very low price. I guess it was a lucky day as the parts alone would have cost twice what I paid. I was not in a position to buy a “dream machine” which these days would cost $3000 or more. These Schecter parts guitars are not for everyone and most hunting for Rare or vintage guitars thumb their noses at guitars ordered in parts and built at home. I have played many Stratocasters and I have a few Rare Custom shop Strats from the ‘ 80s It us great to add this one to my small hoard thanks to Ararity auctions
