The Sports Cards & Memorabilia, Comic Books, Autographs + Collectibles auction will be held online and live at the Davenport gallery, starting at 9am Pacific.
DAVENPORT, WA, UNITED STATES, July 31, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Grant Zahajko Auctions will bid a fond farewell to its longtime home in Davenport with a Sports Cards & Memorabilia, Comic Books, Autographs + Collectibles auction on Wednesday, August 12th, online and live at the gallery. After that the company will relocate to Mesquite, Nevada this fall.
Grant Zahjkjo Auctions has enjoyed a fine working relationship with the city of Davenport and the auction-going citizenry since its founding in 2016. The firm was attracted to the city’s small-town lifestyle, friendly people, affordability as a startup and its proximity to the international airport, since owners Grant and Gina Zahajko often travel the country, picking up consignments.
But a move to Mesquite made good business sense for several reasons. “It will allow us to reduce operational costs so we can keep our prices competitive for our customers,” said Gina, who oversees the operational side of the business. “A larger community positions us better for the growth we’re experiencing. A larger talent pool combined with better logistics for the company’s in-house shipping department, will allow us to continue delivering five-star customer service.”
Grant, who presides over the company’s product side, added, “The move will bring us to a closer radius to a larger pool of prospective consignors. It’s also important to note that our day-to-day operations won’t be impacted. Our contact details will remain unchanged.”
The company’s new building in Mesquite won’t be ready until fall. Once that happens, the move-in process will begin, likely lasting 2-3 weeks and involving multiple trips and trucks. Keep an eye on the website for debut auction details: www.gzauctions.com.
Firm dates have not yet been set for the lineup of fall auctions in the new Mesquite location. “I want to convey that each auction will feature specifically curated items from estates and collections from across the country,” Grant remarked.
