Book a Valuation Appointment

 

Visiting Us

We offer free valuations every week at our offices by appointment which are allocated in 30 minute time slots.  We can arrange for you to see a specialist at a time to suit you. 

Please telephone us on 01743 450 700 or email fineart@hallsgb.com to book an valuation appointment with one of our specialists.


Email our Specialists

Email our specialists images of your items to receive a full auction valuation.  We can value any number of items this way and if we feel that we need more information from you to make an accurate assessment we can then arrange to see you and your items in person.  Email fineart@hallsgb.com


Online Valuation Form

Send us images and details of the items you are wishing to sell by using our online valuation form.  It is easy to use and we will get back to you with a full valuation as soon as we can.  Please click here to upload your images

 
Valuation Events

Halls Fine Art hold valuation events every week here at our Shrewsbury salerooms and around Shropshire. Take a look at our calendar to see where we're going to be:

Valuation Days and Events

Home Visits

You may require a specialist to visit your home if you have a substantial collection and the items are too large to transport.  We can visit clients to carry out sale, probate and insurance valuations.  Please call 01743 450 700 to book a valuation visit with one of our team.  We provide an informal, verbal valuation and advice about selling at auction free of charge.


Transport

To get your items to our salerooms small items can usually be collected by our team of valuers either during a valuation visit or at another arranged time.  For larger items and collections we can recommend a specialist carrier for you.


Property Receipt and Contract

Once your items have been valued and you wish to sell with us, you will be asked to complete a 'Property Receipt and Contract'.

To enter your items into one of our auctions you will also need to provide ID. This is to comply with existing Anti-Money Laundering Regulations.  All our clients need to provide proof of name and address by providing a government issued form of photo identification (plastic card element of a driving licence, or passport) and a utility bill.


Commission and Reserves


We charge a commission which is deducted from the hammer price when your item sells.

For our Seasonal Auctions the fee is 15% + VAT + £20 for photography and marketing.

For monthly Antiques and Interiors Auctions the fee is 21% + VAT + £12 for photography and marketing.

All fees are subject to VAT at the current rate.

There are no additional charges and no unsold lot fees.
