WHY SELL WITH US?
Working with Showplace can provide a simpler and more streamlined experience.
--
There are several reasons why selling estate items outright can be more advantageous than selling via other methods.
--
Convenience: Selling to Showplace Fine Art & Estate Buyers is a much quicker and easier process than selling at auction or selling online.
--
Showplace Fine Art & Estate Buyers will handle the entire selling process for you. We will assess, value, purchase, pack and pick up your items making the process more convenient for you. No need to deal with the hassle of selling items yourself which can often be a lengthy process or meeting an auction schedule that does not fit your timeline.
--
The convenience of selling outright is particularly beneficial when dealing with a large number of items or when you have limited time available.
--
Guaranteed sale price: When selling to Showplace Fine Art & Estate Buyers, you recieve a guaranteed price for the entire estate/collection or a group of individual items. This gives you the assurance of a guaranteed sale price, which can be particularly valuable if you need to sell the items quickly or if you have a specific minimum price in mind. No need to worry about if an item doesn’t sell at auction or having to wait months to get paid. With Showplace Fine Art & Estate Buyers, you get paid immediately upon pickup. Auction houses may promise higher estimates but can’t guarantee results.
--
No fees: Selling to Showplace Fine Art & Estate Buyers doesn’t cost you any money as we do not charge our clients any fees. Auction houses typically charge sellers a commission fee, which can range from 10% to 30% of the sale price. Often other fees for services like photography and fees if an item does not sell can also come into play. Many online selling platforms also take from 20% to 30% of an item’s selling price. Any costs we incur are built into our price, so you know upfront exactly what you will be getting paid.
--
Discretion and Privacy: If privacy is a concern, working with Showplace Fine Art & Estate Buyers offers a discreet solution. We understand the sensitive nature of selling personal belongings and can provide a confidential and private selling experience.
Sell a Greater Quantity of Goods: Showplace Fine Art & Estate Buyers is able to work with you on items of varying value and assist you with a greater quantity of goods at a range of price points. While a typical auction house will only accept a small handful of items, Showplace is able to purchase those items along with a range of other items that have secondary market value. Showplace has the infrastructure to handle large estates, boasting a 40,000 square foot gallery in Manhattan and a 26,000 square foot warehouse in Astoria.
--
Removal and Cleanup Services: In addition to purchasing your items, Showplace can offer additional services such as removal and cleanup. We can handle the logistics of clearing out your space, making the process more convenient and efficient.
Strong Pricing: Showplace offers stronger pricing than our competitors. We have been in the business for over 30 years with an infrastructure that can support your needs.
