I've used a number of auction houses and Elmwood's is by far the most helpful. They include shipping options within their invoicing which is an option but not obligatory. I've not known this before... See more

Elmwood's is by far the easiest auction house to work with. Everything I have received from them has come in a timely manner, is clean, and well packaged. I particularly like that they mail in-house so I don't have to deal with another mailing service.

I was sent an invoice for an auction that I was not registered in and did not bid in. I had to call elmwoods to find out they made an error with the customer number. It was a shocking experience and I will not be bidding with elmwoods in the future

Hi Natalie,

Thank you for leaving a review and we really do apologise you were sent an invoice in error.

As you stated, there was an error with the buyer number and the way it was input into our back office. We truly appreciate you calling to notify us and we cancelled it straight away.

If you do decide to bid with Elmwood's in the future, you would be more than welcome to and it would be lovely to see you.

Kindest regards,
Toby

Overall good experience.
Pre-sale messages and follow-up by Operations Director (Toby Harrison), post sales follow-up ((Tenishia) are top notch, efficient, reactive, professional and extremely kind .Congrats and sincere thanks to them !!

Great experience

I had a great experience with Elmwoods auction. The staff answered quick every questions I had. Bidding was easy and I am so satisfied with the item I won in the auction. It is even more beautiful in real. The shipping and delivery service was very quick and the item was packed very carefully. I can only recommend.

Lovely Auction House

Lovely Auction House, nice people to deal with. Narrative descriptions of the jewellery is pretty good, could do with some actual measurements all round, not just overall length.
