Pace Auctions Running Illegal Auctions Des Plaines Illinois

I had a very different experience shopping at Pace Antiques & Auctions. The owner, David Pace, was totally upfront and honest. Even when I did not ask if items were originals, he voluntarily would say if they were replicas or reproductions.

 

I also saw some items with gold made in China stickers. I assume they were left on the items to show their origin. I understand that Pace sometimes buys items from consumers, so I would assume they have all different kinds of items, new, old, original, replicas, some with sticker and some without.

 

Most importantly, their website states they sell reproductions as well as original antiques and gift items, and items are returnable, so your satisfaction is guaranteed or your money back.

have some lovely things I purchased there, and have been very satisfied with my purchases and shopping experience. 

My wife and i have been going to Pace auctions for years and have NEVER been ripped off! We are adults that spend our money the way we want and we have spent thousands of Dollars at Pace and have had a ball doing it! David Pace is worth 5 times the price of admission, but there is no admission! It's really sad that the U.S.A. is going the way it is, where no fun can be had any more because of the letigation against every ONE and every THING. I.E. Parks have removed their playground apparatuses because lawsuits have insued; Swimming pools have removed the diving boards for the same reason. My point is, we went to Pace mostly for the pure joy of the event. These auction events are far and few between now days. Yes, we also went to purchase Antiques and non-antiques alike. David Pace tells you at the beginning of every auction that these items are AS IS and shown, with no guarantee; (Like life). Yes there are Chinese repos, but they are sold so cheaply, that I really dont know how Pace makes a go of the whole operation. My wife and I have never seen a reproduction sell for big money. I also know that David Pace would not rip any one off on purpose! He will in fact take anything back that ones not happy with. Our house is full of great antiques that we have purchased at Pace Auctions, and every one that visits our house will attest to this fact. I just hope and Pray that the thousands of "Happy" Pace customers will come to fore and give David Pace the praise He/It deserves, so that Pace will be in business for a Long time to come! Sincerely, Mr. & Mrs. Donald Brown. (And No, We are Not related to David Pace); But we wish we were! P.S.
