WEEKLY SUNDAY AUCTION

Our flagship auction venue, offering maximum item-diversity and liquidity for collectors and investors to buy and sell 24/7/365. There is always an auction running! Events start every Thursday at 7:00 p.m. PT and close 10 days later, Sunday evening. Extended bidding begins on Sunday at 7:00 p.m. PT. The Weekly Sunday Auction leverages a patent-pending extended bidding period, designed to create a fair, fast-paced, and engaging auction closing experience. Auction items close quickly via closing windows which become increasingly brief as extended bidding progresses. The first closing window ends promptly at 7:30 p.m. PT, so get ready! Most items sell prior to 8:00 p.m. PT.

All sales receive a 20% buyer's premium added to the hammer price.

FIXED PRICE MARKETPLACE

Sellers can list items from their Safe Portfolio at any time and all sales receive the same seller commission as our other marketplaces. It is free to list and the marketplace is active 24/7/365, so give it a try!

Asking/offer prices already include a 20% buyer's premium.
