Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Richmond Auctions holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Richmond Auctions has 40 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of AntiqueAdvertising.com's written reviews are positive against 33% of Richmond Auctions's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
AntiqueAdvertising.com ships an update every 10 months, Richmond Auctions every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on June 12, 2026 and July 21, 2026 respectively.
