What are Sotheby's different sales channels?
Updated on Tue, 09 May, 2023 at 09:43 AM
At Sotheby's, we provide a range of options that suit your interests and needs.
Our auction sales are open to the public and provide the exciting opportunity to compete for property, with the highest bidder ultimately securing the sale. Some of our auctions - typically automotive or real estate - may use a Sealed Bid format where rival bids are confidential, but bidders know their relative position. Private sales offer a bespoke, discreet brokerage of high-value transactions between sellers and buyers, while for those looking for immediacy, Buy Now provides the convenience of purchasing online at fixed prices.
In addition to our flagship salerooms, we have regional Galleries that exhibit curated exhibitions and an evolving selection of luxury goods. You can view a full list of our retail locations on our website.
