Our Work

Since 2002, Alexandria Fine Consignments has worked in the Washington, DC metropolitan area handling the sale of thousands of fascinating items.

We are a virtual business, meaning we do not have a physical consignment store. We sell all items online - either directly by ourselves or in partnership with major auction houses. We guarantee we will get the best prices for your items.

What We Consign

Look around your home - most of us have unneeded items we could part with. Perhaps your parents have items they would like to clear out. We would be happy to help - confidentially, securely, and with only your best interests in mind.

We specialize in smaller items ranging from jewelry to antiquarian books to collectibles, artwork, antiques, upscale designer clothing, digital cameras, and so much more. Please use the menu above to view consignment information for general household items; rare books; and surplus business inventory or equipment.

We will consign items valued at $250 or higher. The percentage you receive rises as the final selling price increases.

250–500 50%

501-1000 60%
