The Auction Industry lost a truly good man today.
Wiley Collins was a man among men—respected, knowledgeable, and unmatched when it came to equipment. His presence, wisdom, and character left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.

Our hearts are heavy, yet we find comfort in knowing he is at peace in his eternal home. Rest easy, Wiley—you will be deeply missed and never forgotten.
