Do I have to bring the items to you?

No, we are happy to come to you. During this free consultation we will review the items you wish to sell and give you an estimate of sale price on the spot.

I only have one item to sell. Are you interested?

I want to sell some and ship some back north. Are you interested?

Yes we are a full service company. We have a nation wide delivery and shipping service

So we can pick up all the items, ship what you want and sell the rest.

I need to move quickly so I don’t pay another month rent. Can you help?

Yes we can have the items removed in 2-5 days and the sale in no more than 10 days.

What if an item does not sell?

We have very few items that just don’t sell. But if this were to happen we could either return it to you or hold it to put in the next Auction.

How long dose it take to receive my money?

Most payouts are within 10 working days. For a large sale with lots of out of town bids it can take up 20 days. We always have the account cleared in 30 days

Are my items insured?

All items we are in possession of are covered by our comprehensive Insurance.

When we are holding an Auction at your home we can obtain additional policy to supplement the homeowners policy.

What costs are involved when you auction my items?

This is a very tough question to answer. Most of the time the cost is cover by the purchaser. Some times there are storage and delivery fees but these are very rare.

Our consultation is free. 

How does the Sarasota Antiques auction service make it’s money?

We charge a buyers premium that is added to the sale price and we find that auctions build our customer base for the antique mall, increasing sales.

I still have more questions and want to see some references?
