🔨 RAMSEY’S ACE HARDWARE ONLINE AUCTION IS NOW LIVE! 🔨

After many years of serving the community, we have made the difficult decision to close Ramsey’s Ace Hardware and sell the store’s remaining inventory through a massive online auction.

Unlike most store closings, we never held a going-out-of-business sale. The shelves are still stocked with thousands of items, creating a rare opportunity to buy quality Ace Hardware merchandise at online auction prices.

The auction includes more than 1,200 lots and will be divided into two separate online bidding batches.

BATCH 1 - BIDDING IS LIVE NOW
Highlights include:

• Grills and barbecue accessories
• Lawn and garden tools
• Rakes, shovels and axes
• Fertilizer and grass seed
• Interior and exterior paint
• Spray paint and painting supplies
• Complete paint-tinting system
• Two paint shakers
• Home and kitchen merchandise
• Tools, hardware and much more

📅 Batch 1 closes Monday, August 24, beginning at 9:00 a.m.

Additional photos are still being added, and approximately 100 more lots will be added to Batch 1 beginning Wednesday. Keep checking back as the catalog is updated.

BATCH 2
The second auction batch is expected to be live Thursday or Friday.

📅 Batch 2 closes Tuesday, August 25, beginning at 9:00 a.m.

👀 PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE
Saturday, August 22
1:00–4:00 p.m.

This is your opportunity to inspect the merchandise in person before bidding.

📦 PURCHASE REMOVAL
Tuesday, August 25 - Batch 1 purchases only

Whether you are a homeowner, contractor, farmer, reseller, landlord, collector or bargain hunter, there is something in this auction for you.
