Some Shipshewana Auction, Inc. facts:
- Shipshewana is the only Indiana site listed in Patricia Scultz’s book, “1000 Places to See Before You Die.
” - In Indiana, an auctioneer must have 80 hours of completed auction instruction from a course provider approved by the Indiana Auction Commission.
- One of the reasons for #1 is not only because of the Shipshewana Flea Market but also because of Shipshewana Auction.
- Shipshewana Auction’s Antique Auction increased from 4 to 10 auctioneers in 1968.
- In 1978, we built a 200’ x 80’ building for the antique auction, enclosed the building in the fall of 1980 and added a snack bar.
- Our Antique Auction is held every Wednesday at 9 a.m. in our Miscellaneous Barn, and every week we have sellers and buyers from all across the country. Some have come from as far as California to New Zealand.
- No matter where you’re from, we’d love for you to join us!
