How to Consign to ACME Auctions

We first want to thank you for considering ACME Auctions to sell your items! We can't wait to find out what you have. The first step is to let us know what you have, and there are two ways you can reach out to us. 

• Give us a call at 1-631-323-8097 for an initial discussion about your items. If nobody is in at the moment, please leave a message...OR;
• Email us a short description of what you have and if possible, attached photos to the email. You can email us at beepbeep@acmeauctions.com. Please be sure to include your phone number and name. You can also let us know if you just want to sell your items to us outright, or would prefer to auction them. 

Your property will be evaluated for authenticity and an estimate as to what you can expect at auction will be given to you. This estimate will be based on comparable recent auction sales and other market factors.  This is a complimentary service.

If you are satisfied with our evaluation, you will review a consignment contract with our auction coordinator which will explain the date of auction, terms of consignment, and consignment fee.

Upon reviewing and signing the contract, your property will be held and insured by ACME Auctions, photographed, described and ultimately be put online for public review prior to our auction. We do not charge consignors any insurance fee nor do we charge for photography or shipping fees resulting from the sale of your item. 

We will contact you regarding any updates made prior to auction, and you are always welcome to call or email with any additional questions you may have. 

• Please note that when consigning to our auction your property must be in the condition in which you would like it to be presented. 
• We highly recommend that you contact us before doing any restoration as improper restoration can sometimes be more of a detriment to your piece than no restoration at all. 
• If you wish us to prepare your item by repairing, restoring or cleaning, there will be an additional workshop fee which you will be apprised of in advance.
• Your property will be presented for auction on the agreed date. ACME Auctions is currently an "online only" auction house. We currently use Live Auctioneers exclusively. 
• Upon the successful sale of your property, payment is issued generally within thirty (30) days. Payment by check is mailed from ACME Auctions unless you have made prior arrangements with the auction house.

If you have additional questions, we encourage you to contact David Bull at 631-323-8097 or by email at beepbeep@acmeauctions.com.
