Vantage Auctions held a sale on Aug. 11 at its facility in Lake Elsinore, Calif. The day began with a party atmosphere, as the crowd enjoyed a combination of sun, music and the smell of barbeque.

Vantage had a productive day and experienced a record number of buyer registration and participation, both in person and online. The auction also drew a large number of multi-state participants eager to see and test various pieces of equipment.

Robert LaMarsh, president, had this to say about the turnout: “As our economy continues to improve, we are seeing higher auction results for our consignors. It was a great day for all.”
