Michael Simens Philosophy, "We build important collections for important people, our customers. As a fellow collector, I am more interested in acquiring new customers who share these interests than in making a sale. For these reasons, I try to make certain that every contact I make (buyer or seller) be dealt with fairly and with complete satisfaction". No single item or entire collection is too big or too small for our purchase consideration. We have acted as consultants to premier buyers and sellers of the most important items in our industry, and are not only a discreet auction alternative as sellers, we also authenticate and proxi-bid for clients at all major auction houses. Contact us when adding to, or divesting from your collection.
