As a collector, you want to maximize your per-bottle return. Auctions may seem appealing but typically carry high fees, uncertain pricing, and long payout delays. Worse, auction houses often overestimate hammer prices, leaving sellers with less than expected once fees are deducted. We offer a better and more predictable alternative - with structured sales, a dedicated buyer base, and seamless logistics.
Auction houses take a significant cut, often leaving you with far less than the final bid price. We guarantee you a higher net return - 10% more than what you'd receive at auction.
We don't tell you what we think your wines are worth we show you what they are actually selling for, removing subjectivity from the appraisal process. No hidden fees, no surprises: just more money in your pocket.
Many collectors hesitate to sell simply because they don't have a complete list of their wines - and most auction houses won't take the time to help. We do. We offer on-site cataloging and see the process through to a fully itemized appraisal. You know exactly what you have, ensuring you sell your wine with confidence.
