Once you’ve let us know you’re ready to sell, our Client Service team will get in touch to discuss the best way to get your bottles to us.

No matter where your whisky is located, we can help bring it to auction. With dedicated locations in central Scotland, London, and the Netherlands, we’ve made it easier than ever to send us your bottles - whether you prefer to drop them off yourself or have our expert team arrange shipment for you.

Our service includes free collections (subject to bottle value and quantity) across the UK and EU. Based further afield? Enjoy hassle-free worldwide selling, with import fees handled for you.

Please note: All bottles sent directly to us must be noted in advance by submitting a Seller Form. 

When your bottles arrive at our office, they will be inspected, photographed and stored ready for the next auction.  

We have an in-house team of experts that are passionate about spirits. They will produce comprehensive and detailed lot descriptions to share the stories behind your bottles and capture the interest of potential buyers.   

Once the auction is live, enjoy the process and watch as your bottle is seen by tens of thousands of engaged bidders. Our auctions run for ten days, with the most bidding activity typically occurring when the auction opens and again as it approaches closing.

Once the auction ends and your item is sold, we’ll arrange secure payment to you within 21 days.  

To make sure we’re providing an individual service to each of our customers and keeping track of communication every step of the way, your first port of call should always be to submit our Seller Form. This ensures we have all the necessary information to find the best solutions for you and make selling your whisky at auction as effortless as possible.

We accept bottles at all of our offices (location-based restrictions may apply). Once you know which office you’re selling from, be sure to check our bottle deadlines to avoid missing the next auction.

We provide free, no-obligation valuations for any bottles you’re considering selling in our auctions. If you’re unsure of your bottle's value, our experts can provide accurate estimates to help set your expectations before you decide to sell.
