Do I need to register?

Every seller must first register (registration) on our site to be able to offer a bottle. Registration is free of charge and only necessary once. Please note our General Terms and Conditions (GTC).
We will be happy to answer any questions you may have by E-mail at info@whiskyauktionberlin.de.


Which bottles are accepted?

Only whiskeys in glass bottles with a capacity of 0.35 l to 1.5 l that show no damage or leakage will be admitted to the auction. We reserve the right to reject items, especially those where there is doubt as to their authenticity. We also reserve the right to limit the number of bottles submitted.
The items must be in saleable condition, i.e. the labels must be original and complete. If seals are present, they must be undamaged and the fill level must reach at least to the shoulder of the bottle.
Not accepted are own bottlings, re-bottled or re-capped whiskies as well as all bottles bottled before 1945.


Can other items also be registered for the auction?

No. Only glass bottles and the corresponding outer packaging are accepted. Anything else (such as gift packaging, glasses, signs, merchandising items, etc.) will not be accepted and will be returned at a charge.


How does the submission work?

First create a submission receipt. You can use the input mask in your customer account to fill it out or download the corresponding form here.
You can send us your submission as a parcel with a shipping service provider of your choice to the following address:
Voelzke & Bleich GbR, Hackenbergstraße 10, 12489 Berlin, Germany

Bottles can also be delivered to us personally by appointment.


Is there a recommendation for a specific shipping company?

We work with DHL Deutsche Post and have had good experiences with them. In principle, you should choose an insured shipping method.


How should I pack my bottles for shipping?

Please ensure that the outer packaging is stable and that the bottles can stand upright if possible. Use suitable cushioning material to fill the cavities. Make sure that the posting receipt is enclosed inside and that the sender's details are legible on the package.


Is it possible for you to collect my bottles?

We would be happy to clarify in a personal conversation whether a collection of your bottles is possible. Please contact us directly - we will find a solution!


What fees are charged?

Sellers pay a listing fee of € 5 per bottle. For an increased starting price, the seller will be charged an additional fee of € 7.00.


What does an „increased starting price“ mean?

It is possible to raise the starting price from € 1 to a higher value for a fee of € 7.00. The increased starting price is calculated by us and amounts to approx. 80 % of the determined market value.
For new releases, the starting price is limited to the RRP.


Can I watch my bottles during the auction?

Under the menu item MY ACCOUNT - Sales you can monitor your submissions at any time.


What happens if a bottle is not sold?

In this case there are several options:
a) You can have the bottle re-listed in the next auction, the first re-listing is free of charge.
b) You can order a return shipment to an address of your choice, in which case the respective packaging and shipping costs will apply.
c) You can also collect your bottles from us in person by appointment.


How and when does the payout take place?

Payment of your sales proceeds less fees will be made within 3 weeks after the auction ends.
All amounts are transferred exclusively by SEPA transfer in Euro to an account specified by you.


When are the auctions and by when do the bottles have to be delivered?
