Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about selling your collection with us

How do you determine the value of my bottles?
Our team of certified spirits experts uses current market data, recent sales history, rarity, condition, and provenance to provide accurate valuations. We analyze thousands of auction results and private sales to ensure you get the most competitive assessment possible.
How does your direct purchase process work?
It's simple: Submit your collection details through our online form, receive a fair market value offer within 24-48 hours, accept our offer (no pressure!), schedule pickup or shipping, and receive payment immediately upon collection. We buy your bottles outright—no auctions, no waiting for buyers, no uncertainty.
What happens after I accept your offer?
We'll coordinate collection logistics with you. For large collections, we arrange free pickup. For smaller collections, we provide prepaid shipping labels or you can drop off at one of our secure locations. All bottles are fully insured during transit. Once we receive and verify your bottles, payment is sent immediately via your preferred method (ACH, wire transfer, or check).
What types of bottles do you accept?
We accept all types of whiskey including bourbon, scotch, Japanese whisky, Irish whiskey, and rye. Bottles must be unopened and in good condition. We also accept rare cognacs, fine wines, and premium spirits. Minimum values typically start at $100 per bottle, but we evaluate all collections.
How long does the entire process take?
From submission to payment is typically 5-7 days. Initial offer provided within 24-48 hours of submission. Collection can be scheduled within 2-3 days of acceptance. Payment is sent immediately upon receipt and verification of your bottles. Unlike traditional auction houses that take months, our direct purchase model gets you paid quickly.
