Attention memorabilia collectors! We'll begin our Barrie, ON sale by auctioning memorabilia | |
We'll share all the details by email, on our web page and here in the newsletter closer to the sale date. In the meantime, contact Craig by call or text at 705.817.9519 to learn more or to get your memorabilia registered for the sale. | |
Our live auctions create a high-energy bidding atmosphere of excitement, competition and urgency, resulting in higher prices. Here's what you need to know. | |
Our Barrie, ON auction facility is on 100-acres with room for 500 cars under roof. The roads are paved right up to the Essa Agriplex facility, the parking areas for your collector cars are paved (or concrete), and there is plenty of room on the grounds for parking your recreation vehicles and trailers. | There are benefits to consigning early. Don't wait to consign! We know from experience that cars sell for more money when they are advertised sooner. And when you consign early you also avoid the inevitable last-minute rush. | Our online platform is worldwide. We've sold to buyers in France and Germany. We've sold to people in 14 different states. We have registered bidders from every corner in Canada. We have unlimited buyers waiting to see the consignments we are getting in, so the sooner you can consign, the sooner we can start advertising on your behalf. | Your collector car doesn't need to be perfect to cross the block. Our auctions feature a wide range of collector cars, from vintage classics to everyday drivers to showroom collectors, and everything in between. | We have 24-hour on-site security in the days prior to our sales. The safety of your vehicles is very important to us, and they will be under the watchful eyes of our security detail. | We pride ourselves on our quick payouts. You can count on having your cash in your hands within 10 to 15 business days following the completion of our sales. | We will come to you to conduct onsite dispersal sales. When considering downsizing your collection or organizing an estate sale, our onsite dispersal sales offer a convenient solution. Our team is ready to travel coast to coast to serve you anywhere in Canada. | |
If you have any questions or you would like more information, reach out to us by phone or text: Craig - 705.817.9519 / Des - 306.520.8650.

Fellow Classic Car Enthusiasts~
The ability to buy a vehicle through our online bidding platform has been a fantastic addition to our live auctions. It allows us to reach buyers in all corners of Canada, North America, and beyond. That's great for buyers and for sellers.
While buying online will always be an option with Coast2Coast, it will never replace the thrill, interaction, and access you experience while attending our popular live auction events.
Here are some reasons why you should consider consigning and attending our LIVE auction events:
| |
Physical inspection: How many times have you looked at something online and wished you could see it in person before you bought it? Collector cars are no different. At our live auctions, you can see the vehicles in person and inspect them closely before making a bid. You can examine the condition, color, and hear it run as it crosses the block. When you are in the heart of the action and can see exactly what you are bidding on, it can result in getting a better deal. No more missed opportunities sitting at your screen, shaking your head knowing you would pay more if you could just see that paint, see the bodywork or listen to it run.
Social interaction: Live auctions offer the opportunity to socialize and interact with other bidders, auctioneers, and staff. You can discuss the items, ask questions, and learn more about the lots and the auction process. Don't be surprised if you find yourself being congratulated by the car community on your successful bid or consoled on the one that got away.
There is NOTHING like the rush of a live auction: Our live auctions create a high-energy bidding atmosphere of excitement, competition and urgency, resulting in higher prices. You can count on our auction team to generate energy and enhance the presentation of vehicles, and that boosts confidence in the vehicle and increases the bids without applying pressure to our bidders. Whether you are selling, buying or watching, when you hear the auctioneer's chant and see in-person bidding wars over sought-after vehicles, it's exhilarating, engaging, and a lot of fun.
No buyer's remorse: You never need to wonder if you just paid too much for a vehicle at a live auction. The people bidding against you are showing you what it's worth.
Immediate gratification: When you win a bid at a live auction, you can take your vehicle home with you immediately. You don't have to wait for shipping or delivery, which can be a significant advantage for some buyers.
