Spink Shreves > Consigning > Financial Terms

The Most Competitive in the Industry

When you consign your stamps to a Spink Shreves auction, you might be surprised at the generous financial terms you recieve. Compare our terms with any other major auction firm. You will be pleasantly surprised. Here are some highlights:

• Our standard seller's commission is simply 10% of the gross realization, with no other charges of any kind.
• Your consignment is fully insured at our expense while in transit to us and while in our possession.
• An Auction Consignment Agreement acknowledging your consignment and detailing all of the terms will be mailed to you immediately upon receipt of your consignment.
• Settlement is always made on the 45th day after the date of the sale, without exception.
• Cash advances of up to 50% of the pre-sale estimate of your consignment can be arranged (typically subject to a modest interest charge.)
• We will travel at our expense to personally pick up consignments valued in excess of $50,000 (market value).
