How to Sell
Looking to sell part (or all) of your whisky collection? Maybe you are looking to free up some cash for your next purchase, or perhaps you have inherited a collection from a relative. Our team of whisky experts can help!
It's not just whisky either — we also sell rum, cognac, gin and other spirits.
There are just 5 simple steps to sell with The Whisky Shop Auctions.

STEP 3
Send Your Items
Once you have spoken with our team, there are a few ways to send your items:
drop off at 22 locations in the UK (by appointment only); arrange a home collection (uninsured) from your chosen address; or send direct to our Auction House using your preferred carrier.
Do not send or drop off items before being instructed to do so.
STEP 4
Go to Auction
We'll book a provisional auction date and ask you to confirm the details. Then go under the hammer and follow its progress in your account.
STEP 5
Get Paid
Once your item has sold, the buyer has 7 days to pay. We'll automatically deduct our Seller's Fees and add your funds to your Virtual Wallet where you can hold the funds for future purchases to save on bank fees or withdraw via bank transfer.
