Please include your name, invoice number, and a list of lots requiring shipping.

Shipping Overview

Burgess Auctions LLC is pleased to offer in-house packing and shipping services on most auction lots. We handle the entire process from careful packing to coordinating delivery — so your items arrive safely and securely.

We take great pride in how we pack and protect every item entrusted to us. From fragile antiquities to sterling silver and fine art, each package is prepared with the same care we bring to every auction.

How Our Shipping Process Works

1 Pay Your Auction Invoice First
Before we begin packing your items, your auction invoice must be paid in full. We cannot begin the packing and shipping process until payment has been received and cleared.

2 Email Us to Request Shipping
Once your auction invoice is paid, email us at [email protected] to let us know you need shipping. Include your name, invoice number, and which lots require shipping.

3 We Pack Your Items In-House
Our team carefully packs your items in-house with appropriate materials for each lot type. Fragile, antique, and high-value items receive special attention and protective packaging. Please allow up to 7–10 business days for us to get your items packed and ready to ship.

4 You Receive a Shipping Invoice via Shipping Saint
Once your items are packed and a shipping quote is confirmed, we will send you a separate shipping invoice through Shipping Saint. This invoice will detail the carrier, shipping cost, insurance, and any applicable handling fees.

5 Pay Your Shipping Invoice
Pay your Shipping Saint invoice promptly. Your package will not leave our facility until the shipping invoice has been paid in full.

6 We Ship Your Package
Once your shipping payment is received, we ship your package and provide tracking information so you can follow your items all the way to your door.

Shipping Timeline

Please allow up to 7–10 business days for packing.
After auction day, our team works carefully through each lot to ensure proper packing for every item. High-value, fragile, and unusual items take additional time to pack safely. We appreciate your patience — we would rather take the time to do it right than rush and risk damage to your purchase.

In-House Packing

All items are packed by our team at our Knightstown facility. We do not outsource packing to third parties. This means every item is handled by people who know the catalog, understand the fragility of each lot, and take personal responsibility for its safe arrival.

Packing materials are selected based on the specific needs of each item:

• Fragile antiquities and fine art receive foam padding, bubble wrap, and rigid outer packaging
• Sterling silver and metalwork are individually wrapped and cushioned to prevent surface damage
• Multiple lots shipped together are carefully separated and secured within the same package
• Unusually large, heavy, or fragile items may require custom crating — we will advise you if this applies to your lot

Shipping Invoicing via Shipping Saint

Burgess Auctions uses Shipping Saint to manage all shipping invoices. When your items are packed and ready, you will receive an email from Shipping Saint with your shipping invoice. This is a separate invoice from your auction purchase invoice.

Your Shipping Invoice Will Include:
• Carrier selection and shipping method
• Shipping cost based on package dimensions and weight
• Insurance on the package
• Any applicable handling fees
• Tracking information provided upon shipment

Important: Your package will not ship until both your auction invoice AND your Shipping Saint shipping invoice have been paid in full. We cannot release items for shipping until all balances are cleared.

What We Can & Cannot Ship

We ship the majority of lots from our auctions. However, some items may not be eligible for shipping due to size, weight, fragility, or legal restrictions. Items not eligible for shipping must be picked up in person.

Generally Shippable May Require Special Arrangement
✓ Ancient artifacts & antiquities ⚠ Oversized furniture & large items
✓ Sterling silver & holloware ⚠ Large oil paintings & framed art
✓ Small fine art & prints ⚠ Firearms (FFL transfer required)
✓ Jewelry & small collectibles ⚠ Hazardous materials
✓ Coins & currency ⚠ Items over 70 lbs
✓ Estate smalls & decorative items ⚠ Items requiring custom crating

If you are unsure whether your lot is eligible for shipping, email us before bidding at [email protected] and we will advise you.

Damage, Loss & Insurance

All packages are insured through our shipping carrier at the declared value of the item. In the event of damage or loss during transit, claims must be filed promptly through the carrier. Burgess Auctions will assist you in the claims process where possible.

• Report any damage immediately upon receipt — photograph the packaging and item before disturbing anything
• Do not discard original packaging materials until the claim is resolved
• Burgess Auctions is not liable for carrier delays, weather-related delays, or events outside our control
• Once a package leaves our facility with a confirmed carrier scan, responsibility transfers to the carrier
