Our Consigning Process
How consigning with SebastianCharles Auctions works, from free initial estimate through cataloging, marketing, sale day, and settlement. We handle every step so consignors get strong results with none of the guesswork.
Four Simple Steps
Step 01 — Value Estimation
At SebastianCharles, we offer complimentary estimates and evaluations for items suitable for sale. Submit photos of your items through our online submission form. A representative will review and contact you with an assessment promptly.
Step 02 — When & Where We Sell
We conduct 6–10 well-curated auctions annually and always accept quality consignments. Your items will be featured alongside other high-quality pieces. With our multi-platform approach, we ensure a wide bidder base and global audience reach.
Step 03 — The Consigning Process
We make the consignment process simple. Our one-page consignment agreement outlines the terms of sale. We can arrange an in-person meeting at our offices in Edina, Minnesota, or at a location of your choice, depending on your item.
Step 04 — Charges & Payment
We believe in transparency when it comes to charges and payment. Our commission rates are competitive and outlined clearly in your consignment agreement. After the successful sale of your item, checks and a detailed consignment summary are mailed within 3–4 weeks. For consignors of silver and gold items, we also offer cash advances.
