WE BUY
Please email or WhatsApp (0858231885) a description and a few photos.
We can usually tell straight away if it's of interest to us.
Or advise on your best course of action to a good sale.
HOUSE CLEARANCE CONSULTANCY
André can visit, value and advise on the best avenues for selling contents, make an offer to buy some, or quote to remove the entire house contents as a turn-key solution.
When you're assigned as 'executor' of an estate it can seem a daunting task, where to even start. After the close family has removed the sentimental items. André can advise which auction rooms would be the most suitable for particular items, and in the case of us purchasing directly from you - we both save the auctioneer's commission, or for items that are harder to ascertain a fair market value (due to rarity or lack of previous sale records) then placing on consignment with us is a prudent option...
CONSIGNMENT
We professionally photograph and thoroughly research the item.
We inform our customers and actively promote the ebay auction of a piece, targeting and driving relevant interested parties to bid. When sold, we securely package and dispatch. 14 days after the item has been delivered to the buyer, the sale price less a previously agreed commission is remitted.
Sometimes if a piece is unique, rare, unusual and we think is valuable, but little records of previous similar items exist, then we can auction the item on ebay for you. As a worldwide audience is far more effective for items of a specific interest. We agree a reserve price and generally achieve far better hammer prices compared to the item going "under the radar" through a general auction room.
Please contact André on 085 823 1885 to discuss.
This number is also used for our WhatsApp (a free and handy way to send images and texts)
