What is an auction?

An auction is a public sale where goods or services are sold to the highest bidder. It’s a method of buying and selling where the price is determined through competitive bidding. Participants place bids, which are progressively higher offers, until no one is willing to bid higher. The item or service is then sold to the highest bidder.

What is a buyer's premium?

An extra charge on top of the winning bid price is known as a buyer's premium. It is paid by the buyer and is expressed as a percentage of the final bid, such as 10%–20%. 

Can I inspect the items before the auction?

Yes, a preview and inspection period is always scheduled prior to the start of the auction. You can examine the objects in person to determine their condition at this period. 

How do I pay for my items?

Please read the terms and conditions for each auction you participate in. The total is typically charged to the card on file, however, for larger equipment and vehicle auctions we accept certified checks, wire transfers, and cash. 

Is bidding on online auctions different from in-person auctions?

Yes, online auctions allow you to place bids remotely, with a time limit for each item. Online auctions typically last 2-3 weeks. Bidding increments are typically set automatically, and you can bid at any time before the auction ends. We utilize extended bidding or "soft close"- if bids come in during the last minute, the bidding on that item will extend for (2) minutes. Once all of the bidding on that lot has stopped the lot will be sold to the highest bidder. This prevents 'sniping" and gives all bidders a chance to bid in the last seconds of the lot closing.

In-person auctions involve live bidding with an auctioneer that typically takes place in one day. All bids are final and made out in the open.

Can I cancel an unwanted bid?

No, once a bid has been placed, it cannot be withdrawn. You are making a legally binding commitment when you place a bid. Bid cancellations and refunds are not available. 

Why should I buy at auctions?

Auctions provide a broad array of goods, featuring numerous valuable or distinctive, exclusive items that can’t be found anywhere else. Additionally, auctions can sometimes allow you to buy items at lower prices than you would find in retail stores or through other sales channels.

Current Real Estate Auctions

We recognize that each client and their collections are unique. Therefore, we've crafted a strategic and successful process to ensure a seamless auction experience tailored to individual needs.

Our Story

Founded in 1955 by Ken Geyer, Geyer Auction Companies has been a family-owned and operated business for 70 years. Originally established as a livestock auction in Pennsylvania, the company has grown to become a national leader in real estate and business liquidations. Today, Geyer Auction Companies is led by a team spanning three generations and supported by a dedicated staff of 20 professionals.

In 1999, Mark Akins, the nephew of Ken Geyer, assumed the role of president. Under his leadership, Geyer Auction Companies expanded its services to include Government Surplus, Heavy Equipment, Business Liquidations, and Vehicle and Fleet Liquidations.

Geyer Auction Companies is proud to have orchestrated the largest liquidation on the East Coast, a monumental event for Garden State Park RaceTrack. The 10,000-lot liquidation spanned five days and featured five live auctioneers.

Headquartered in Gilbertsville, Pennsylvania, Geyer Auction Companies is also a fully licensed real estate brokerage in New Jersey (License # NJ 0016896). Our New Jersey office is conveniently located in the historic James Logan building in Mt. Holly, at 219 High Street, Floor Two.

Vehicles and Fleet Liquidations

With 50+ years of commercial auction experience and locations and partners throughout the country, we are able to sell your vehicle or fleet of vehicles with ease from one of our centralized locations.

We offer services such as conducting inspections for buyers, removal of lettering and company identification, transportation, title transfer, and notary work. Our As-Is Auction terms and conditions remove potential liability concerns and insulates our sellers from the purchase process.

We currently hold contracts with Philadelphia Gasworks to auction vehicles and equipment and are also under contract with Burlington County Prosecutors Office and Burlington County Public Works to sell vehicles, equipment, real estate, and confiscated items. We are approved as an auction company vender for the state of New Jersey.

Reviews

“I have had the best experience both buying and selling with this auction company!! For several years I have been a bidder both online and live, super excited with my treasures (and tools for my husband)! We've also used this company for an outlet to auction off items and vehicles, either inherited or no longer needed. They were extremely helpful, fair, and honest. I would highly recommend Ken Geyer Auctioneers!!!”

"I had an incredible experience with Geyer Auction! The staff was amazing – friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to help every step of the way. They made the entire process so easy and stress-free. I couldn't have asked for a smoother experience. Whether you're buying or selling, I highly recommend Geyer Auction for their exceptional service and professionalism!"

“Extremely helpful company, very friendly, well-run business! Will definitely continue to purchase from them in the future.”

“Geyer Auctions is top-notch! They managed the sale of our assets and property recently to assist in liquidation of our business. They are professional and managed everything from A to Z. All went smoothly and all promised was delivered. Highly recommended!”

“Great guys and a fantastic auctioneer service. Get you and your business top dollar! Highly recommend. Also have great sales every week so it’s worth checking out regularly.”
