Consignment Sales

Don't have a full estate to liquidate? Just a few valuable items or a small collection? Drop them off or ship them in. No walkthrough required.

How It Works

Drop Off, We Handle the Rest

✓ Guaranteed in an auction within 30 days of receipt
  • Three ways to get your items to us: drop them off yourself, ship them in, or schedule a pickup (contact us for availability and pricing).
  • Items are cataloged and professionally photographed for the online auction platform.
  • Consigned items are grouped into a dedicated monthly auction, marketed and pushed for maximum visibility to buyers, rather than listed one-off and left to get lost in the shuffle.
  • When volume supports it, we run auctions more frequently than once a month to keep turnaround fast.
  • If an item doesn't sell, it's returned to you after the auction closes. If removal is a concern, we can look into haul-away options for you.
Fee Structure

No Upfront Cost

  • Nothing is due at drop-off or at any point before your auction closes.
  • Our commission is deducted directly from your final proceeds, so you never pay anything out of pocket.
Commission

Flat Commission, No Surprises

  • A flat 35% commission on the final gross hammer price.
  • Plus the standard 18% buyer's premium, paid entirely by winning bidders, which covers platform and payment processing costs so it's never deducted from your share.

Why It Works

Traditional brick-and-mortar consignment shops routinely charge 40–50% commission and can take months to sell your items. Our online-only model gets your items in front of active, competitive bidders fast, cataloged, listed, and selling within 30 days, with more of the proceeds going back to you.

What Guides Us

Integrity, Compassion & Safety

The three commitments that shape how we handle every consignment, whether it's one piece or an entire collection.

Integrity

Your fees are simple and disclosed upfront: a flat 35% commission and an 18% buyer's premium paid entirely by bidders, never deducted from your share. Nothing is due before your auction closes, and you always know exactly what you'll walk away with.

Compassion

Letting go of a collection you've built for years, or a piece that belonged to someone you love, isn't always simple. We handle every item, whether it's one piece or fifty, with the same care, and make drop-off or pickup as easy as we can.

Safety

From the moment your items arrive, they're cataloged, securely stored, and handled with the same care standards we apply to full estates. Every item is tracked from intake through sale or return.

Common Questions

What Clients Ask Us

QHow often do consignment auctions run?
Consigned items are grouped into a dedicated auction once a month, marketed and pushed for better visibility rather than listed individually and left to get lost. If enough items come in, we run auctions more frequently to keep turnaround fast, and either way, your items are guaranteed to be live within 30 days of receipt.
QDo I need a full estate to work with you?
No. The real question is scope, not value: do you have a whole property to clear out, or just individual items? If it's a handful of items or a small collection rather than a full home, consignment covers that. You bring or ship the items to us, and we guarantee they'll be in an auction within 30 days of receipt.
QWhat is a buyer's premium, and will it lower the bids on my items?
A buyer's premium is standard practice in online auctions: the winning bidder pays a percentage on top of their final bid (18% in our case) to cover secure payment processing, platform licensing, and platform security. It doesn't reduce your gross results. Online bidders compete based on demand, not fees.
QWhat areas do you serve?
We serve Northern Colorado and surrounding areas. Contact us to confirm drop-off availability near you.
QWhat happens if my items don't sell?
Unsold items are returned to you once the auction closes. If you don't want them back or removal is a concern, we can coordinate haul-away options to handle it for you, so you're not left figuring out next steps on your own.
