Default Thinking about consigning. Your experiences?

Hey guys. I've got an item that I'm thinking about searching out an auction house to consign to. I was hoping to hear some of your experiences with consignments and which auction houses left you with a great experience and which you didn't enjoy working with. Thanks.

Packs--

Maybe if you disclose what you are thinking about consigning you will get more accurate advice--alot depends on the type of item as to where best to go.

I'm just talking in general terms. Looking to hear about which houses are extremely friendly and efficient that people have had generally good experiences working with. The item I'm talking about is my 2 player tintype.

It seems like getting paid should be at the top of the list given what's happening these days.

No doubt. Getting paid is at the top of my concerns. I've read a lot about people consigning to auction houses and it taking months for a check to arrive. I was hoping some people could shed their experiences with that end of the consignment process as well.

Wesley,

Now that your post on this thread is here, I thought it would be appropriate to communicate the current situation related to the response owed to you from past post(s).

First and foremost, in thinking through all possibilities, I remain confident that all posts will be responded to. I am hopeful that based on free time available and head-space required, this would have been accomplished by the end of a month of my choosing. I am working diligently to compose such snarky comments in order to be in a position to remit the outstanding response you are due.

My inability to write a response in a timely fashion has been very unfortunate and I apologize for that. I ask for you to grin & bear with me as I continue to work through this very awkward situation.

Mildest regards,

three25hits

That looks like a good piece for Sloate Auctions.

Also FYI, REA will NOT be having a 2nd offering this year.

B/S/T was a good choice for offering it but your asking price was somewhat high.

Lelands might take it for one of their small auctions, but I would consider going with Leon, Barry or Seth.
