Fun Fact · Gold
14K gold isn't pure gold
Pure gold is 24 karat. 14K means 14 parts gold out of 24, or 58.3%. The rest is other metals that make it hard enough to wear every day.
That's why weight comes first. Gold buyers look at karat and grams before anything else, so every gold lot in our sale lists its weight in the title.

What Clients Say

Every Google review Cardinal has received is five stars.
Cardinal Auction Services are the way to go. Professionalism is off the charts and their dedication to you is exactly what you want when choosing an auction service!
I am so excited for the launch of Cardinal Auction Services! I have seen their faces at many estate auctions for years, and when I do, I always know that I will have a smooth and considerate pickup experience. And the bonus of being greeted by their little dog Lucy in her stroller and security hoodie is a bright spot on my day.
I have had the opportunity to work regularly with Jackie since 2010 and I have always been impressed with her ability to power through any situation professionally, both with a client and the customer. When I first met Chris and Nate, I was completely blown away by the speed with which they were able to complete tasks. Combined, this team is truly impressive.
I have been working with Chris and Jackie for almost 15 years. They understand getting the best price for the client and fostering relationships with buyers that are willing to pay the price for premium merchandise. It's a win-win for all sides. In addition, they have experience with so many estate sale settings, and understand the importance of lighting, exposure, and preview times. It's your one time to sell your belongings at the best price. Trust Chris and Jackie.
