Important Announcement: Special notice to those visiting this site for the first time. Most of this auction, over 99.9%, is being sold ABSOLUTE with no minimums and no Buyers Premium. Bring you Trucks! Delivery for hire also. The auction starts promptly at 10am with Persian Rugs, then the better items. Restoration items and modern H.H. Goods, if offered, are gradually sold towards the end of the auction. Please, no smoking INSIDE the buildings and be sure children are content! If you like a fast paced auction with items being truly sold to the highest bidders, then you will be happy to make the drive to Roumillat's.

Note: An "absolute" auction is one in which the item will be sold to the highest bidder. There will be no minimum opening price or required price to be met on items sold absolute. A buyers premium is a fee, usually a percentage, many auctioneers add to the buyers final bill. It is a revenue enhancement method some auctioneers use to offset a lower sales commission. There is no BP, as it is called, on this auction for purchases paid for in cash or good check.

   We operate a rather fast paced auction so we can get all the good stuff sold between 10am and 3pm.  When we are having the backroom table lots we like to get started on them about 3pm so everyone can get home early.

On the main 10am auction we will try to sell requests early so you don't have to wait hours for just one item. We don't mind if you want to start the bidding low. Besides its not where it starts that is important; it's where it ends!  Also we won't waste your time with lectures and we won't try to start the price up high and come down to nothing just to see it go back up. (It's a waste of time, everything starts low)

For people who can't attend the auction: Absentee bids are treated like a proxy bid and bought at the lowest bid up to the amount offered. For example, if you leave instructions to buy a lot for up to $100.00 and the bidding stops at $60.00. Then that is your bid, $60.00. Tie bids go to the person on the floor. All items including absentee bid items must be removed from the building by Monday 6pm after the auction.

Coming from the North on U.S. 17 it is advisable to take the by-pass (I-526) toward North Charleston and continuing on I-526 toward Savannah. When you get to the end of I-526 take a right on U.S 17 South toward Savannah. Go about 1/3 mile and look for us on the lefthand side of U.S 17 just before the Hess Station.

Coming from the West on I-26 take exit 212 where it says "I-526 Savannah". Continue to the end and make a right onto U.S.17 South. We are about 1/3 mile out on the lefthand side just before the Hess Station.
