Auction House Recommendations?

[dallen]

Thought I would throw our hat in as well. Obviously condition is everything but we have sold high grade examples for prices ranging from $9,000 (PSA7 in our 2009 Live Auction) to $11,000 (PSA 8)

We have auctions every 3 months including a 2,000+ event that goes on line for preview this Wednesday.

The good thing is all the Auction Houses mentioned will do a great job for you.

Best of luck in your decision.

...make sure whomever sells it knows the provenance that it has been in your possession since it was signed...collectors love to know this especially if you know the special circumstances in which it was signed (if you know).

Coach's Corner...Just kidding...

Cant go wrong with any of the sites that these foremost Gentlemen have stated. I like Hunts myself, as a buyer, but as a seller I would say H.S., Legendary,and Lelands is about to start their spring auction so that may be a viable sollution for you as well.

I also would recommend the great people at Hunt Auctions. But the No. 1 auction house in the world for this type of material is Robert Edward Auctions. Lifson's reputation is impeccable. Only one auction per year, but I believe you can get cash advances.

I am sure he has already missed the deadline for REA this year....

Thanks to everyone for their replies. Has anyone dealt with REA as a Consignor? I've read some positive articles, but haven't heard anything from someone with first-hand experience.

The best! They'll often work with you on the % commission, pay you almost immediately after the auction, and provide the best exposure within the hobby.

Cream of the crop all the way.... the only concern might be the sheer number of "competing" items that are equally amazing (and could possibly dilute the market a bit). I would ask them if your piece would be up against any other Munson singles or even multi-signed balls. Other than that, no worries with REA.

BTW... are they still accepting consignments, or is it now closed off? Anybody here know their official cut-off date?
