Consign with American Bottle Auctions and check out the advantages....

1) We have a mailing list containing thousands of proven customers. Each customer on our email list has REQUESTED that they be included in our emails. We send them several pre-auction teaser emails as well as auction announcements.

2) We were the first bottle auction company to go on-line with our auctions and we’re still blazing the way with the finest auction website available. Your bottles will be professionally photographed and displayed accurately in crisp full-screen images.

3) We pay top dollar on items you may wish to sell versus consign. Before you sell to someone else, let us know what you have. You might be surprised at what we offer. Because we get the highest prices for our bottles, we can pay the highest prices.

4) We get the top price for your bottle. That’s no baloney. Check out our prices from the last auction at our website.

5) We’re the fastest payers in the business. Because we’re fully computerized, we get bills out (most of them emailed) the day after the auction ends. That means, we get paid fast, you get paid fast.

The commission rate is as follows: 10% on $1500 and above, 15% on $500-$1499, 20% on $100-$499, and 25% under $100. The items will be described accurately and with full disclosure as to condition. There are no guarantees as to potential final bid amounts given. A realistic assessment will be given, but is only for reference. No reserves are taken for any item unless previously discussed with American Bottle Auctions. All items are covered in our insurance policy, and in the event that item(s) are stolen, lost or destroyed, we will pay the consignor full appraised value. We regret the possibility that an item might not appear due to circumstances regarding the bottles consigned or the auction itself. In the event that an auction does not occur, the item(s) will be returned to the consignor at no charge. Payment is made after payment is received from the buyer, and the buyer has had a minimum of two days to examine it. Generally, our consignors are paid within one month of the date of the auction.

Consignors are advised to submit a photograph (an electronic or hard copy) of their bottles before shipment to American Bottle Auctions. Please contact us if you are interested consigning or selling your bottles. Emails should be addressed to info@americanbottle.com.
