About Us Founded in March 2010, Paige Auction is located on the South side of Downtown Portland and specializes in quality antique and collectible auctions. Paige Auction was started as an innovative alternative to the higher priced auction sites currently on the web. We are a small outfit of five, and we five do everything from start to finish at Paige Auction. Paige Auction's consignment fees, buyers premiums, and shipping costs are some of the lowest in the industry. Our auctions are held bi-monthly on odd numbered months, and all auctions are on the second Tuesday of the month. Auctions will have a central theme with approximately 10% of the items relating to that specified theme. Remaining lots are our usual mix of antiques and collectibles. Occasional specialty auctions are held on even numbered months when booked, an example being Ephemera, where the entire auction relates to the theme. All items are guaranteed authentic and original. We are a no reserve, absolute auction; and all lots start at low, reasonable opening bids. Consignors and their agents are absolutely forbidden to bid on their own merchandise. We offer two online bidding providers in addition to our in-house bidding option. All online bids are displayed to in-house bidders via our flat screen monitors. Please see our Upcoming Auctions page for more details.
