Smart tvs Spark Bidding Frenzy at Year-End Auctions
Tv auction hero banner

As the holiday season ramps up, several regional auction houses are spotlighting tvs as headline items, reflecting a broader trend of electronic appliances taking center stage in estate and specialty sales. On, W&H Peacock Auctioneers will feature a Hisense 100" smart tv alongside an electric bike and a games table in its weekly St Neots live auction. Bidders can view the lot in person or join remotely, underscoring the growing demand for high‑definition home entertainment gear in mixed‑use sales.

Two days later, Gardner Galleries' final 2025 auction on December 22 will not only showcase traditional jewellery and silver but also offer a chance to win a brand new tv as a prize for participants. The inclusion of a tv giveaway highlights how auctioneers are using popular electronics to draw larger crowds and encourage competitive bidding across diverse categories.

Later that same day, Theurer Auction/Realty will run an online‑only estate auction that lists tv wall mounts among its household hardware. While the mounts are accessories rather than the screens themselves, their presence signals that buyers are seeking complete home‑theater setups, prompting sellers to bundle related components for added value.

Across these events, several patterns emerge: auction houses are integrating tvs into both primary lots and promotional incentives; remote and online bidding options are becoming standard, allowing collectors nationwide to compete for high‑end electronics; and sellers are increasingly curating tech‑focused packages, pairing tvs with mounts, sound systems, or smart‑home devices. As the market continues to blend traditional collectibles with modern consumer tech, tvs are proving to be a versatile draw that boosts attendance, raises final hammer prices, and expands the appeal of auction houses beyond classic antiques toward contemporary lifestyle items.
