Listing Timelines

Pristine Auction is a full-service auction house that handles the preparation, authentication, photography, listing creation, and marketing of consigned items.

Because of the work involved in preparing consignments for auction, listing timelines may vary.

Services Included With Consignment Processing

Consignment processing may include:

• Package receiving
• Unpacking and intake organization
• Authentication coordination with trusted third-party authenticators
• High-quality item photography
• Writing listing titles and descriptions
• Auction marketing and promotion

Estimated Listing Timeline

Items are generally listed to the seller account within:

• 2 to 12 weeks from package receipt

Please note:

• Listing timelines are estimates only
• Processing times may vary depending on submission volume, item type, and authentication requirements

Authentication-Related Delays

Items requiring authentication or Letters of Authenticity (LOAs) may experience additional delays depending on:

• Authenticator turnaround times
• Shipment transit times
• Authentication review volume

Faster Processing Possibility

Pristine Auction frequently processes and lists items faster than the estimated timeframe when possible.

However:

• Faster processing cannot be guaranteed
• Listing priority is determined by operational workflow and auction scheduling needs

Important Notes

• Package delivery confirmation does not mean items have completed intake processing.
• High-volume consignments may require additional processing time.
• Sellers should allow sufficient time for authentication, photography, and listing preparation before requesting status updates.
