Auction & Show Calendars Directory
|
What are the two most common questions received by the National Association of Collectors? One of them is "What is my item worth?" and the second is "How do I locate upcoming antiques & collectibles auctions and shows that I might consider attending?" For the first question, we refer the person to our Appraisals and Appraising section at Collectors.Org. For the second question, the National Association of Collectors has created this "directory of calendars" of auctions and shows. We found no single calendar satisfactory for fulfilling everyone's interests, however some excellent calendars for specific types of collectibles or specific geographic areas. We are pleased to provide links to these calendars: Available Categories
