Circa Online seeks high-quality consignments in excellent condition. We sell fine jewelry, watches, couture & furs, crystal, silver, china, porcelain, fine art, rare and first edition books, and some electronics. We sell items that might otherwise be deaccessioned via traditional auction houses, sold via brick and mortar consignment/antique shops, the classifieds, or vehicle (auto and marine) dealerships.

For examples of our listings, please see our portfolio.

Among eBay’s earliest adopters, we have a decade of experience. We have streamlined our business practices, and have earned a 100% feedback rating from eBay. We have spent several years as PowerSellers and Registered eBay Trading Assistants.

In fact, we have been working as sellers’ agents since long before eBay instituted its Trading Assistant Program!

Circa Online handles every aspect of your sale. We...

• showcase your holdings beautifully using state of the art digital photography
• write excellent copy
• time your listing to assure that buyers see your items at the most active selling times
• handle buyers’ inquiries; confirm each buyer’s reputation and qualification
• process the winning bidder's payment and pay you promptly

We analyze closed and active sales at various venues to give you an idea how to best price your item in the current marketplace.

In some cases an appraisal is necessary to assure top price or to authenticate your item. We have referred clients to qualified appraisers and have had items independently appraised on behalf of clients.

Circa understands that we all buy and sell under specific circumstances and we guarantee our discretion.

We have a secured studio and are fully insured.

Every step of your consignment process is verifiable. If you use a personal computer, you can follow your auction or sale from beginning to end. If you don't, Circa Online keeps detailed, secure records, transparent and accessible to you at any time.

Most of our clients earn 70% or of their sale, many earn more. Please see our fee schedule for details.
