auction sale - the market preferred by buyers & sellers of unique and quality items.
All of our consignment catalog offering are now being presented in the On Line Bidding Only format. This allows real time global bidding at the lowest expense to the seller.On Line only auctions are also Green.
These sales are cataloged and widely promoted. This level of sale attracts the highest caliber buyer, delivering highest return to our consignors and is especially effective for antiques, decorative arts and high value collectable's as it offers one stop shopping for discriminating collectors and those who trade in this merchandise.
Today’s bidders are On Line. The Bounds Auction Company maintains relationships with global electronic bidding platforms that each has an established relationship within a specialty marketplace. Proper placement of the merchandise in the appropriate on line venue is a key to success.
Buyers are responsible for all packing and shipping expenses, paid directly to the auctioneer's choice of shipper. Seller's expenses are usually limited to a scaled commission based upon a % of the hammer price of each item. Appraisal, insurance or other fees may apply on a case by case basis.
We are always seeking consignments for our live internet-bidding only consignment offering.
Seeking: Coins, Stamps, Sterling Silver, Quality Jewelry, Fine Porcelains, American & Continental Antiques, Russian & Asian Items, Clocks, Fine Art Glass, Bronzes, Paintings and Period Decorative Arts, Trains, Military Items & Firearms. Whole Collections Liquidated.
On site refers to the complete liquidation, including household goods as well as property of high value, on the site (usually the residence) of the consignor. When this method is appropriate, it has many advantages. Merchandise sold on the site of its’ owner is considered by the trade to be merchandise that is known to be “fresh to the market“ and therefore more desirable. If an estate sale, proceeds may not subject to any state sales tax for the non-trade buyer. This status stimulates the interest and competition that yields higher prices than the common auction house consignment can and payment to the consignor estate is in the shortest period possible, but the merchandise must be of the best quality.
