How it works

A clear, unhurried process — from hello to paid.

No pressure, no vague single number. Here's exactly what to expect, so you can arrive relaxed and leave confident.

Step by step

Eight simple steps

The whole experience is designed to be calm and educational. You're in control at every stage — and free to keep any piece you'd rather not sell.

  1. Book a private appointment

    Request a time online or by phone. Standard appointments are 45 minutes — plenty for most visits, with more time available for larger collections.

  2. Share a short intake (optional)

    Tell us briefly what you're looking to sell. You can add photos and notes if you like — but it's never required, especially if you'd rather just bring everything in.

  3. Confirm your scheduling

    We'll confirm your time and answer any questions. Online self-scheduling is coming soon for instant, friction-free booking.

  4. Meet one-on-one, in private

    You'll meet in a confidential, secure setting — calm and unhurried, never a public counter or pawn-shop environment.

  5. Each piece is tested & weighed

    Using best-in-class equipment and correct, calibrated scales, every item is properly tested and weighed in front of you.

  6. Value is explained transparently

    We walk you through what we found and how today's market applies — piece by piece, in plain language, with nothing hidden.

  7. You receive a clear offer

    You'll get a clear offer — explained verbally and, where appropriate, summarized in writing — with no obligation to accept.

  8. Get paid — often on the spot

    If you accept, many standard appointments are paid by check the same day. Larger estates may be arranged for slightly later, by agreement.

45 minutes

Standard appointment

We set aside about 45 minutes so nothing ever feels rushed — though most appointments wrap up in just 10–15 minutes. Need more time for a larger collection? Just let us know and we'll plan for it.

Private & secure

Confidential setting

One-on-one, by appointment only, in a secure office. Your visit and your business stay private.

On the spot

Payment by check

Accept an offer and, in many standard appointments, walk out paid the same day by check.

Ready when you are
