Selling
General Information
Our monthly two-day Live & Online Sales are held on Wednesday and Thursday.
(Please see our Sale Dates page for details).
These auctions contain a mixture of Vintage, Antique and Modern pieces to include:-
Furniture, Carpets & Rugs, Paintings & Prints, China, Glass, Metal wares, Treen, Miscellaneous, Clocks & Barometers, Lighting, Jewellery, Silver & Plated Items, Toys, Books & Ephemera, Outside Items, etc.
We also have Specialist sections of Sporting goods, Textiles & Costume and Wines, Spirits, etc. which are each put through auction twice a year as part of our monthly sales.
We can also hold Single Owner/Collection sales, either at our Auction Rooms or onsite where appropriate.
Any Unsolds from our Live & Online Sales are automatically put on to a Timed Auction (Online only) from the Friday after the Live & Online sale for 10 days (with bidding usually closing on Sunday evening). This allows buyers to pick up items they may have missed first time around and gives our vendors another opportunity to sell lots at the initial estimate / reserve level.
Goods Suitable For Sale
As the auction market changes, we too adapt the way we do business. Fashions come and go and this is reflected in the values of certain items at auction. With this in mind, we are keen to ensure that we only accept goods in for auction that we are confident will offer you a positive financial return. If you would like to have a value on items before you bring them into sale we are happy to help you with this.
(Please see our Valuations page or use our online Valuation Form at the bottom of the page).
Delivery
The Auction Rooms team continue to work around the clock to deliver excellent sales on behalf of our buyers and vendors.

We can help to organise the collection of items from a single piece to a full house clearance. Again please contact us to discuss your requirements.
Please Note: We prefer not to accept consignments of goods on the week of a sale.
