Shipshewana Auction

>Our Miscellaneous & Antique Auction is held every Wednesday, year round. The auction starts by the sound of the bell at 9:00 a.m. sharp! Eight to ten auctioneers will take up the auction cry.


Our main market thrust is for the better quality antique and collectible type item, however as one of our old time auctioneers, Argie, used to state, "We sell anything from soup to nuts!"

An average auction will take ten auctioneers from 9:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. in the afternoon. The auction is held in an 80' by 200' enclosed facility, heated in the winter for your comfort and made to open in the summer, letting in the fresh, cool, country summer breezes. A snack bar as well as restrooms are located in the auction building for your convenience.

Every Wednesday we have people in attendance from all across the country. Many of our customers are here every Wednesday, both buyers and sellers, while every Wednesday there are people in attendance for the very first time. First time or for the last 40 years, we appreciate your business. If you are interested in selling, give us a call to reserve your auction space. If you are wanting to buy - one time or a box truck full, this is the place! Livestock auctions are also held every Wednesday, year-round, and Horse auctions are held every Friday, year-round.
