Advice for Vendors

Prompt Payment

We pride ourselves in our prompt payments. These are made by bank transfer within a couple of days of the sale. Details of the results are e-mailed on the evening of the sale. For consignments divided between different sales, payment may follow sale of the total consignment.

When Considering Selling

Whether your selling a treasured possession, a specialist collection or your complete house contents, our experienced staff will be pleased to give you sound presale valuation advice at the Auction Rooms or, where appropriate, your house.

Due Diligence Policy

The Diss Auction Rooms work alongside the Police and operate a Due Diligence Policy to help prevent the sale of stolen goods through auction and thus hopefully deter initial theft. We ask vendors to sign a declaration of ownership and we make payment by cheque to their home address

Further specific advice relating to vendors is published in our Conditions of Auction.
