We are currently in consultation with developers and we need to clear the premises by the Summer of 2025. We will hold weekly Auctions at our Auction suite and later in the year we will hold a series of small Auctions in area’s of Scotland that we have a strong client base and give you an opportunity to claim some great lots as many will be sold to the highest bidders.

For those that don’t know us. Charles Phillips was formed in 1987, We are consignment Auctioneers who specialise in the expeditious clearance of quality merchandise at below market price. Typical categories are, Original Art, Famous Artist Limited Editions, Diamond Jewellery, Hand made furniture, Sculptures, Bronzes, Carvings, Decorative Porcelain, Wines and Whisky, Persian Carpets, Memorabilia and Unique one of kind Artistic items. For the past 30 plus years we have procured goods from customers, manufactures and Artisans from around the globe. Our main service was to containerise and ship these goods to the UK and sell by live Auction at our venues in the Uk and Ireland. We also built a major showroom facility within our head office premises to facilitate customers mainly in interior design fields or for customers transforming building interiors.
As they say “All good things come to an end” Since all our lives dramatically changed over the last 3 years so did our life styles and the way we purchase goods. With the surge in online buying it’s no longer economically viable for our sector to hold large Venue Auctions, so an online Auction service is a natural step for our future. Our premises are right in the middle of an active development zone so it was an easy choice for us to sell and re locate to an office environment in order to perform our online Auctions. I must say it’s not the same as a vibrant interactive live Auction which always has a lot of buzz and excitement but on the plus side it’s easy to operate, you upload photographs, create an online catalogue then arrange delivery of sold items through the owner of the goods at the Auction close. No need for the large storage premises or operating your own transport fleet.
We now want to give the final push to clear our premises and will be appearing in your area soon for the final time ( Scotland only ) Please look out for your invitation. This last Auction will be the one you shouldn’t miss as many previous price tags have been removed and goods will sell to the highest bidders !!!
If you haven’t been to any of our events before why not come a long and see one for yourself, we are always keen to add customers to our mailing list for future online events. Whatever location event you attend you will see a great cross section of the above mentioned categories. If you are unable to stay for the whole event and are still able to attend the viewing period it’s still possible to leave a bid on any item with the Auctioneer.
