We cost less and offer more than most other auction houses.
Our portfolio of services has been designed to return the most value to you, whether buyer or seller.
Mark Hill Auctions was founded in 2024 as a boutique auction house aiming to revolutionise how auction houses operate. Our seller’s commission and buyer’s premium are amongst the lowest in the business, with no hidden extras. We also offer a retail sales option through Scottish Antiques and their luxuriously appointed Galleria, and we pay top prices for gold and silver via Scottish Antiques.
Why Buy or Sell With Us?
• Low, Competitive Commission Rates
