How Much Do You Charge For An Estate Sale?

Our standard estate sale commissions are based on total gross sales. Our commissions for estate sales grossing less than $25,000 are 40%, $25,001-$50,000 35%, $50,001 & above are evaluated on a per case basis.  These fees are inclusive of advertising, security,  trash removal, and the estate sale itself. 

How Long Does It Take to Set Up An Estate Sale?

Our average estate sale takes less than 1 week to set up, however this can vary based on the size of your home and collection. Please contact us for a more accurate estimate of time. Payment is issued less than 7 days after the estate sale has concluded. 

How Do I Sell My Antiques Or Jewelry?

Please send us photos of what you have for sale. We will schedule a free consultation over the phone and plan the best way to move forward. 

Do You Purchase Large Collections?

Yes! There is no collection too large for us. We are one of the biggest buyers of fine art, jewelry, and antiques in California and are well funded. 

How Will I Get Paid?

If you are selling your antiques outright to us you will be paid immediately. For high value collections, wire transfers can be arranged. Estate Sale payments will be issued less than 7 days after the sale has concluded. 

Do You Pay Appraisal Prices?

In short, no. Most appraisals are for insurance purposes and do not accurately reflect the secondary market value of the item. We do however pay close to the estimates provided by major auction houses and appraisals for estate liquidation. No waiting. No fees. No fuss. 

I Live Out Of State, Can I Sell My Collection To You?

Yes. We provide a mail in service for jewelry, gold, silver, and paintings. Ship us your items and we will make you an offer. Once accepted we will send you a check or bank wire, otherwise we will return your package.  For large and expensive collections, we will travel out of state to you.  

Do You Buy Scrap Gold or Silver?

Yes we do. Please shop your gold and silver to local stores and dealers and show them to us last. We guarantee we will pay more than any pawn shop, coin shop, or dealer around! Don't believe us? Try us out.
