Buying & Selling

Benefits of Selling at Lunds

Free confidential pre-auction estimates.

When consigning items for auction, it is important you know what the likely selling price may be. Bring your items to our showrooms. One of our staff will be happy to examine them. Lunds holds Antique & Art, Collectible, and weekly household auctions. We will advise you at what type of auction your items will obtain maximum selling price.

Mail photographs of items, if you prefer. Include as much information about the articles as possible and we will send you an estimate.

For your convenience, arrangements can be made for our appraisers to examine items in your home.

If you are interested in selling the entire contents of a home or a complete estate, whether or not it includes Antiques or works of art — Lunds can arrange to sell all saleable merchandise.

As soon as we receive your items for sale, you will be issued a receipt with an owner number, then lot numbers are assigned; articles may be grouped to form one lot for better saleability. Your items will be assigned for an Antique & Fine Art, Collectible, or weekly Household Auction.

Quick settlements with detailed statements 8 days following auctions.

Auction procedures allow a minimum acceptable price below which your property will not be sold. This reserve price is established by the seller in consultation with our staff prior to consignment. If the bidding does not meet the reserve price, the item will be "bought in" and you may have it returned to you or sold in another auction without reserve.

Your items are exposed during preview hours to a strong base of buyers. We have an extensive international network of interested collectors and dealers whom we notify of specialized items.

Buyers have traveled from London, New York and Los Angeles to attend our auctions.

Lunds Auctions are an open forum where buyers and sellers of Fine Art, Antiques, Collectibles, and regular household items obtain True Market Value through competitive bidding.
