"Auction is seldom the best way to achieve the highest price for your rare collectibles. Realisations through auction are, inherently, unpredictable and you could lose a considerable amount of your original investment."

Our private treaty service provides the solution, enabling you to sell directly to buyers at agreed prices. You are in control at all times and can set your own prices.

We have a long history of achieving realisations for our clients equivalent to the major auction houses.

Our commission is, however, lower than these auction houses. Which means you get more in your pocket from the sale.

There will be no costs to you for holding your items or insurance, whilst we secure the best price for you.

We will offer your items directly to our global database of clients, matching pieces to buyers based on our detailed knowledge of their interests.

Our highly-skilled marketing team will also promote your items across a variety of channels including emails, social media posts, digital brochures, videos and even our own quarterly magazine.

From experience, our clients achieve a net realisation on average three times higher than if they had chosen the auction sales route.

If your objective is a complete realisation in the shortest timeframe, and you are willing to accept a potentially lower realisation, we recommend you consign your rare collectibles to our auction, hosted on our own live bidding platform. 

We do not charge any seller’s commission, meaning your net realisation will be higher. Furthermore, as we are based in the Channel Islands, there will be no import tax or VAT payable to eat into your returns.

You have complete control and can set reserves at the minimum prices you’re willing to sell. 

We will make all efforts through our promotion, marketing and direct selling to our client base to achieve the highest realisation for you, although you should accept that your realisation could be much lower than if you chose our private treaty sales route. 

However, it's always possible at auction that certain items can achieve much higher than expected prices when there is competition between bidders.

In some cases we'll also recommend placing your items into specialist auctions through external companies, who we have built up excellent relations with.

In such instances, we'll handle every step of the process from consignment to completion, and keep you fully informed as the auction progresses.
