If you have the time, it probably would be worth a look... preview and if nothing catches your eye you can move on.

I weigh alot of different things before I go to an auction...
we have a lot of dealers in our area and I know what most of them is looking for...if it is an auction with a lot of primo antiques and smalls, I don't bother going if there is another sale somewhere....
if there are 3 or 4 going on that day in your area...which one has the smallest listing? this is where I usually find some treasures....the dealers may come by later but i take my chances here first...
if there is a small auction listing and it is raining that day....run to the auction...you can make a killing when the weather is bad...most dealers have other places they can be and don't bother..
the opinions stated here are just mine and they have worked for me many times...

I never miss an estate sale, went to 3 last weekend. Spent almost $500.00, Bought a ton of cloisenne & cinnabar pieces at one estate. One piece of cinnabar is dated 1830's, valued @$300.00, got it for $45.00. Went late on Sunday afternoon. Made an offer on 15 pieces of cloisenne listed for over $600.00 got them for $210.00 & these were all older pieces, some from 19th century. Bought a 8 place service of Royal Worcester for $75.00, sent it to Replacements Ltd. will get $165.00 for it. Love Estate Sales!!!!!
