Sell With SebastianCharles Auctions

One painting or a whole house, the process is the same. Send us photos, we tell you what it should bring at auction, and you decide. There's no fee to ask and no pressure to consign. SebastianCharles Auctions has been family run in Edina, Minnesota since 2019.

Why Consign With Us

We Know the Market. Art, jewelry, and silver cross our tables every week, so our estimates come from what things actually sell for, not a guess. If we think a piece belongs somewhere other than auction, we'll tell you.
Your Items Reach Bidders Everywhere. Every sale runs on multiple platforms at the same time. Your pieces go in front of collectors around the world, not just whoever shows up in town that weekend.
Clear Commissions. You'll know the rate before you sign anything. It's spelled out on a one page agreement, and there are no surprise fees after the sale.
We Do the Work. Photography, research, cataloguing, marketing, shipping. We handle all of it. And when you call with a question, a person picks up. Usually the same person you talked to last time.
Results You Can Check. We sell over 97% of what we take in and have sold more than 100,000 items since 2019. Our realized prices are public on our auction site, so you don't have to take our word for it.
Safe While It's With Us. Your consignment is stored insured at our Edina warehouse from the day it arrives until your check goes out.

How It Works

Step 01. Send Photos. Use our Get an Estimate page. A few clear photos and whatever you know about the piece is plenty to start.
Step 02. We Take a Look. Our auctioneer reviews every submission and gets back to you within one to three business days with an honest read on what it should bring at auction.
Step 03. Sign and Drop Off. If the numbers work for you, we sign a one page agreement. You bring the items to Edina, or we come to you when the estate warrants it.
Step 04. Auction Day. Bidders compete for your items and your check goes out within three to four weeks after the auction closes.
