Sell at auction safely with Nomisma Aste

Selling with Nomisma Aste is a simple and transparent process, designed to ensure maximum convenience and satisfaction for our clients. 

Here are the main steps of the consignment process:

  1. Submit Photos via Email: To begin, send us photos of the item you wish to sell by email or through the online form on this page. Please include clear and detailed images to allow for an initial accurate assessment.
  2. Contact with Our Experts for an Initial Valuation: Our experts will review the photos and contact you to provide an initial valuation of your item, giving you a preliminary idea of its potential auction value.
  3. Telephone Consultation: If the initial valuation is of interest to you, we will contact you by phone to discuss additional details and terms of the sale. During this phase, you can ask any necessary questions and clarify any doubts.
  4. Agreement for In-Person Evaluation: If you decide to proceed, we can arrange for our experts to visit your home for a more detailed evaluation of the item, or you may bring it directly to our office.
  5. In-Person Evaluation and Valuation Confirmation: Our experts will conduct a detailed in-person evaluation of the item and confirm the preliminary valuation. This step is essential to ensure an accurate and transparent evaluation.
  6. Signing the “Auction House Consignment Agreement”: Once the valuation is confirmed, we will proceed with the signing of the “Auction House Consignment Agreement”, which formally assigns Nomisma Aste the responsibility to auction your item.
  7. Custody of the Item: After signing the contract, we will take responsibility for the item, which will remain in our care until it is sold.
  8. Auctioning of the Item: Your item will be included in our upcoming auction, and you will be kept informed throughout the sale process.
  9. Post-Sale Settlement: In the event of a sale, you will receive payment according to the schedule outlined in the contract.
  10. Return of Unsold Item: If the item does not sell, it will be returned to you at no additional cost. We guarantee maximum transparency and no hidden fees.
