We hold monthly auctions at each of our sites, at Silverdale and Cobridge, and bidders are welcome to attend online, in-person or over the phone. If you wish to bid via telephone, please book with us.
Viewing days are held 1-2 days before each auction, with no need for an appointment.
Seeking to consign with us? We have valuation days every Tuesday at our Silverdale showroom and every Thursday at our Cobridge premises, where our friendly staff will be on-hand to value your items and advise you as to their potential success in our sales. Please call or email to book an appointment. If, however, you’re unable to attend one of our valuation days, home visits can also be arranged by appointment.
