Auction Selling FAQs

You will receive Auction details at least 24 hours before the auction is set to open.

A prior valuation is not required to sell your wines with LANGTONS, however we do ask that you please send a list of the wine you intend to sell for review as not all bottles are suitable for sale.

Your wine is covered at its lowest estimated value less Seller commission, from the time it is dropped off at a LANGTONS Hub or collected by our courier, provided we have a complete list of what's included in the consignment.

There is no charge for this coverage, however, if compensation is required for breakage or items lost in transit, payment will be made at our low estimate minus sellers commission.

Due to the nature of cork and fine, old wine, we cannot cover or be responsible for the change in the condition of your wine in transit or in storage at our temperature-controlled warehouse facility.

Once your wines are received at our warehouse, they will be inspected, catalogued, photographed and then confirmed by our Quality Assurance team. Please allow up to 28 days from the date of delivery for the listing to go up for Auction online.

You will receive notification of your scheduled Auction at least 24 hours before it is set to open. Please use this time to review your listings.

The Reserve is the minimum price acceptable to you for selling your wines. If the Reserve is not met, the wine will pass in.

LANGTONS house Reserve is in place by default and will be visible to you once your wines are listed in your account. You can adjust the Reserve to a value that is below or equal to the low estimate in your account.

If your wine is valued at a low estimate of $20 or less, only house Reserve is available.

Once the Auction has gone live, you will not be able to adjust your Reserve.

We can organise to return your wines to you upon request at least 2 days before the Auction date. If you withdraw the wines to have them returned to you, you will be charged for the cost of shipping and the Minimum Handling Fee as outlined in our Terms & Conditions.

Wine listings cannot be withdrawn from live Auctions.

Wines that pass in at Auction will become a second chance offer for 24 hours, available to bidders who have shown interest. If unsold after the second chance period, your wines will be relisted in a future Auction(s).

We can organise to return your unsold wines, upon request, prior to an Auction going live. A delivery charge will be invoiced.

If your wines are evaluated to be of No Commercial Value, a member of the team will be in contact to provide details and organise to return or dispose of the bottles at the owner’s cost. If we do not receive advice on your choice, we will dispose of your bottles after 28 days.

Sellers are remitted into their nominated bank account within a maximum of 7 business days from close of Auction. Account details can be set/adjusted in the My Settings area of your customer account.
