Golden Moment Auctions

Golden Moment Auctions is a company registered with the Ontario Government. It is located in Ontario, Canada. We focus on popularizing, introducing, purchasing, and selling Asian antiques and artworks, such as brush paintings and calligraphy works, jade wares, bronzes, porcelains, and scholar's objects. We also provide appraisal services to help our clients to understand the backgrounds and values of their collections. Our items come from various sources and will be shipped primarily from Canada to successful bidders. Some of our consignors are serious/important collectors themselves. We provide professional one-stop service to our valued clients - whether they intend to buy, sell, and/or consign. We offer quality items and services to meet your tastes and needs. IMPORTANT Please read before bidding. *Payment(s) must be paid in full within 7 business days. A dispute will be filed if the winner fails to make the payment or fails to respond to our email(s). An invoice is sent to the winners normally within 2 business days. *All prices and quotes are in USD. *We try to describe our items as precisely as possible based on the opinions and judgments of our clients and staff. We do not claim to be experts in various antiques and artworks. Please ask questions and request for more close-up images, before the auction starts. No excuse will be accepted for non-payment, once the winning bid is finalized. If you do not agree with the basic auction principles, please do not bid. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. NO RETURNS AND REFUNDS. *Due to the sheer volume of sold items and a large number of buyers/winners of each auction, we sometimes need up to 2-3 weeks to have the items ready for shipping. We strive o save postage and shipping costs for our clients while making sure that the items will reach our clients safely. In order to do so, we need to sort, pack, and request estimates from our shippers. All these take time. Therefore, we would like to ask for your understanding and patience in advance. Our staff will be in close touch with our clients to expedite the process. *In order to save manpower and shipping costs, We sometimes use our branch office in China for transitioning and redistributing purposes - especially for those OVER-SIZED HEAVY ITEMS such as LARGE BRONZES AND STONE CARVINGS. Please consult us, if you have any concerns or questions. Special Advice to Buyers/Bidders from China: 1. We may accept payment in RMB, upon request. 2. Upon request, we could provide services to pack and ship. In some cases, we may help clear customs on our client's behalf. Please contact us for details. 3. We advise our clients to use our shipping services to save time and money - especially for large and fragile items. We will use our branch in China to redistribute the items in China, with assistance provided by local shippers. For some items, we accept offers to purchase them outright both before and after the auction(s). Please send us your request(s) and we will respond accordingly. We strive to reflect the real conditions of our items through pictures. Wears and defects are normally shown with close-up images. All measurements are in cm, instead of inches. If you need more images and condition reports, please do not hesitate to let us know. We also urge you to ask questions before bidding, if you are not clear about our policies. We will work with you the best way we can to ensure your satisfaction.
