Buying and selling, answered
How do I register to bid?
Create a free account, confirm your email and add a payment card. Registration for each sale opens two weeks before the auction and closes one hour before the first lot.
What is the buyer's premium?
The buyer's premium is added to the hammer price: 25% up to $500,000 and 20% above that. Online purchases carry an extra 3% platform fee.
How long does a free estimate take?
A specialist replies within five working days. Clear photographs of the front, back, marks and signatures help us give a reliable figure first time.
What does it cost to sell?
Our seller’s commission starts at 15% and falls for higher-value lots. Photography, cataloguing and marketing are included, and there is no fee if a lot does not sell.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. Our shipping team packs and insures works for delivery to more than 60 countries and handles export paperwork where needed.
Testimonials
What buyers and consignors say
They catalogued my late father’s watch collection with real care. The sale beat the high estimate on almost every lot, and every step was explained.
Margaret EllisConsignor, Watches & Clocks
Bidding online felt as personal as being in the saleroom. The condition reports were honest and the specialist called me back within the hour.
Daniel BrooksCollector, Old Masters
From the first photograph to the hammer price, I always knew where my ceramics were and what the fees would be. No surprises at all.
Priya AnandConsignor, Ceramics
Packing and insured shipping to Edinburgh was handled for me. The marble bust arrived in better shape than I could have managed myself.
Thomas ReidBuyer, Sculpture
The free valuation was thorough and came with no pressure to sell. When I did consign, the result was well above what I expected.
