Consignment
The auction system has consistently proven to be the best way to sell philatelic material. Auctions allow your collection to reach the broadest range of both domestic and international buyers. Such exposure guarantees that your collection receives the appropriate attention and highest possible prices.
We take pride in producing lavishly illustrated and informative catalogs that will showcase your philatelic collection. Printed catalogs are mailed to an extensive worldwide client list. In addition to the printed catalog, we post auctions on our website and conduct live bidding through Stamp Auction Network. Our internet auctions also allow us to handle material in all price ranges to fully maximize hammer prices on the overall consignment.
If you have any questions about the consignment procedures listed below, please contact our office.
