If you love the excitement of discovering local second hand treasures, you'll enjoy this episode, which takes a deep dive into the world of local auctions. Join host Veronica Theodoro as she sits down with Susan Kime, a seasoned expert from Link Auction Galleries in the Central West End, and an appraiser who's regularly featured on PBS's Antiques Roadshow. Kime unravels the mystique surrounding auctions that can be intimidating for some, offering insights that inspire you to fearlessly embark on your own bidding adventure. Listen and follow House of Lou on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or most places podcasts are available.
