Valuations by post

When sending anything to us, we ask that you use the Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed service.  Once you have the tracking number, please provide this to us and we will be able to track your parcel on its journey.  As soon as it arrives with us we will then be able to appraise the items in person and confirm the auction reserves with you.  Should you wish to proceed we can confirm the next available auction date.  If you decide you would rather not proceed to sale, we would return your items to you using the same the Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed service. Please be sure to include your name, address and contact details.

Send any items to:

Tate Ward Auctions, Studio 59, The Old Truman Brewery, 91 Brick Lane, London, E1 6QL

Both online and postal valuations are subject to first hand inspection.
