Online Auctions
In-home sales are not always the best avenue to sell high end items and collectibles.
Auctions are a great alternative avenue to sell unique or valuable items, attracting competitive bids from collectors, investors, and enthusiasts. Items with rarity, quality, historical significance, or cultural relevance typically perform best.
We are partnered with Denver Online Auctions to bring your items to our wider network of online buyers. We particularly have a wide audience across the country for fine jewelry.
We have talented photographers on our team, who can create beautiful and effective online auctions for full-home sales or collections of fine jewelry or memorabilia. Everything is photographed and detailed on the auction site, and after a 7-day online auction, pickups are hosted by our team. Again, you have the option for a full home clean out of anything that didn’t sell, leaving your home empty.
