Are you a book collector? AuctionsCodex is here to assist you

MANHATTAN, N.Y. - Oct. 5, 2021 - PRLog -- AuctionsCodex has emerged from my passion about rare and collectible books. Being a long time book collector myself for 30 years, I have encountered a real problem of collectors who want to buy at book auctions:

There are 5000 antiquarian rare book auctions per year and no complete and timely information about them, on one spot

Moreover each auction offers a catalog with 100-3000 lots which have to be browsed and studied by the collector, if he wants to make good use of his money. Therefore it is imperative that he gets the auction information sufficiently in advance of each auction, as soon as it is announced by the auction house.

To deal with this problem successfully we created AuctionsCodex, which gathers the auction information at the earliest possible time it is released by the auction houses. We offer all relevant information (auction dates, catalogs, subcategories etc) collected on one simple page at book auctions. We achieve this because

We solely focus on everything the collector needs, in order to prepare for the auction

No other site on the internet is so directly focused on the preparation of book collectors in this sense. In particular

• The auction houses themselves are certainly focused only in selling their own books. Moreover many auction houses announce auction dates at irregular intervals.
• There are sites which represent a number of selected auction houses and gather the lots together, in order to facilitate live internet auctions. However they only cover a limited number of auction houses and they are focused on sales commissions and not in providing a complete overview of information, for the benefit of the collector.
• There are a few sites whose main focus is on historical auction information and book prices. Some of these sites also offer information for upcoming auctions, however not a single one covers all upcoming auctions (or past auctions for that matter).

AuctionsCodex offers to the book collector, early, complete and easy to find information. To facilitate our services we maintain a complete list of upcoming book auctions, together with all relevant information. We also have a growing list of past auction information. But more than that, we offer an online workspace with a range of important services (some of which are quite novel in the field):

• The most comprehensive list of Upcoming Rare Book Auctions from 28 countries presented on one spot, including all auction catalogs. Hence relentless browsing through hundreds of auction houses becomes unnecessary at the preparation stage.
• We maintain a Personal Auction Notebook for each auction and each collector, which contains favorite lots with maximum bids, together with other relevant information.
