Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I’m thoroughly delighted with the sale of my items at last week’s Wilson55 online auction.

Having sold through various auctioneers over the past few years, my experience with Wilson55 has exceeded all my expectations. James Spiridion was on hand to answer my many questions, was really quick to respond and extremely knowledgeable. His advice regarding valuation and reserve prices was absolutely spot on. My items were beautifully presented in the auction catalogue and, on the day, he took time to describe them and encourage the bidders. There was no rushing through each lot, as I’ve become accustomed to with other auctioneers, each lot was given plenty of time for bidders to partake. I’m delighted with the selling price and the whole experience of working with Wilson55 to find new owners for my lovely antique items. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wilson55 to auction your belongings and get the very best price.

James has been excellent , and his knowledge, help and advice has been much appreciated. He has a friendly, customer focused approach and its refreshing these days ( and rare ! ) , to actually feel valued as a customer.

Super helpful and professional

I found Stephen Sparrow at Wilson55 to be super helpful and professional.
I had never previously used an auction house, but I found their auction process to be easy and straightforward.
I took the items to Nantwich where I met with Anna to arrange the sale of oil paintings, and I met with Ian to arrange sale of Victorian watches.
Both Ian and Anna were knowledgeable and lovely to deal with.
I highly recommend Wilson55.

FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM WILSON 55

I have had a great service from Wilson 55. They arranged a telephone bid for me on the auction day. Kept me informed on the whole process and when my bid was successful, they sent me a link for secure payment. Easy as That.
They arranged packaging and postage via Bradley’s. The bowl was expertly wrapped with care and attention. Top marks to whoever did the wrapping and packaging.
I would definitely buy again from Wilson 55. Fantastic service from a business that obviously cares about their customers. Thanks Jonny P

Plaudits for James Spiridion

What made my experience great? The answer is James Spiridion. Very hospitable when I visited for valuations and I was particularly pleased with the effort he put into research and auction descriptions. A very nice saleroom to boot.

Outstanding customer service

Once again Wilson55 has given me exceptional service as a seller. This time they have a hit rate of 100% of my lots sold - many over the high estimate. Chris Large is a consummate professional in his field and everyone makes me feel very welcome. Going to Wilson55 is like a visit to old friends.

Brilliant service

Stephen Sparrow was so helpful when our family decided to sell 2 Trevor Grimshaw pieces. We were delighted they went to buyers who appreciate the artist. My 93 year old mum watched the auction live and was thrilled that Stephen spoke of the of the friendship Trevor and my dad had had. Thankyou so much.

Stress free sale

Found we had 2 Harry Potter first editions which we brought to James Spiridion. His expert knowledge was evident and the whole process of selling was easy and stress free. Highly recommended!

Selling and buying with Wilson55 is…

Selling and buying with Wilson55 is excellent. The staff are so helpful and I enjoy chatting about items that are in the sale, with them, in advance. I simply love the auctions. Viewing days are always handled really efficiently and staff are always willing to explain everything. Always a great experience.

Great for Art and Furniture

I’ve been buying art and furniture from Wilson’s for the last five years. They always have something of interest—whether it’s a piece of Northern Art, or an item of antique furniture. It’s a pleasure to browse their sales, and I’ve bought some great pieces over the years. The staff are knowledgeable and always friendly/helpful.

Refreshing traditional service.

From the start, when my auction bid was successful to the delivery of my purchase every aspect of the process was a pleasure. A complete professional service from the description of the items to the packing and dispatch of my purchase was of the highest standard.

Great experience with Wilson55

An efficient company to deal with. The invoice was delivered promptly after the auction and the option of adding delivery was automated and produced a new updated invoice. Impressive. Item was well packed for delivery. All in all, a great experience.
