Title: Settling Dads Estate
Post by: Froggieo on December 12, 2013, 09:53:11 AM

Dad Passed on last year and I am trying to help Mom with the tool and literature disbursement.
She has contracted with Chad Metzger of Manchester IN  to hold an auction  Feb 1 2014.
This is a large collection of farm wrenches he has displayed at shows. Also there are toys and a large collection of literature that consists of sales brochures and operators manuals. These go back to the steam engine era. You can view the item by going online to Chad Metzgers auctions Manchester In and scrolling  to near bottom for 'Huge tool, toy and literture auction. Online bidding has started and will continue thru the live bidding  Feb 1 2014  Questions call Ralph Ranck  260-330-9477
The Roger Ranck Family Thanks You

Looks like a huge IHC collecton.  The 20 percent buyers premium is the highest I have ever seen and a real turn off for me.

Sorry about your dad! I lost mine twenty years ago and still miss him.

The collection looks interesting! It's too far for me to make the auction. Best of luck with the auction!

Buyers premiums make me not even look at an auction. Especially 20%.
