We are one of the leading auction houses in the world for picture postcards and philatelic items. Our auctions have an excellent reputation for buyers as well as for sellers by offering excellent customer service with a personal touch. Furthermore, you can rely on decades of experience, discretion and success. In our last auction more than 48,000 bids were submitted to us from all over the world with a sales rate of about 90%.

The demand for high quality postcards, stamps and coins is stronger than ever and can hardly be met. Now is a peak time for consignors of high quality single lots and substantial collections and you should not hesitate to consign for one of our forthcoming Stade-Auctions.

 

Consigning to Stade Auctions – it’s easier than you might think.
Here are the most important steps

You can send us your consignments by standard parcel service (insured up to 500 euros – higher insurances can easily be made at the post office) or you can use a private carrier (UPS, FedEx, etc.).

Up to this point there are no costs or obligations involved for you. Only after having decided to go for a best possible auction sale, we will arrange for a written contract

After that, your items will be carefully examined and prepared for the auction sale. Detailed lot descriptions as well as high quality pictures guarantee an optimal presentation of your items in the auction catalogue.

7. Consignment confirmation and auction catalogue
About 4 weeks prior to the auction you will receive a detailed consignment confirmation as well as our auction catalogue.
