High fees, poor service, otherwise ordinary
I collect paperweights. I've bought them from all over the world (including, in the past from this auction house). A bit of bubble wrap and a box has always been more than enough to see them safely received. Recently, I bought two small paperweights from Adam Partridge. They refused to pack or post them, referring me instead to a third party - who charged me £128 to ship them. Ironically, via UPS, in a box with a bit of bubble wrap. Add to this the fact that this company has some of the highest fees in the business, and the overall impression is that they really can't be bothered with service.

I have received a fantastic service from Adam Partridge auctioneers from beginning to end. Emmeline attended my property to value the items I wanted to sell and was very honest, informative, friendly & professional. I then dealt with the salesroom staff when dropping off my items who were all very helpful, friendly, informative & professional. I would highly recommend using Adam Partridge Auctioneers. I was very pleasantly surprised with the outcome of my items sold at auction. I watched the auction online and it was really exciting & enjoyable. I was chuffed to bits that Adam popped in and Sold my last lot, but Emmeline was amazing and very entertaining to watch. Thank you to everyone at Adam Partridge Auctioneers, it was a pleasure dealing with you.

Have now sent a threatening letter from their solicitors, as though they are the injured party! This same solicitor who threaten costs if they are not given time to review it after they have already replied that their solicitors do not respect any claim! They continually procrastinate, obfuscate, and stonewall, and now think they can threaten with solicitors and costs to avoid refunding for a fake autograph which similar they later again tried to auction knowing full well it was a fake. I am now forced to take legal action to have this company honour and respect their professional duty, and prevent them taking money from a customer for something that is not what they said
This organisation is a shambles .
This organisation is a shambles . I regularly use Saleroom to place bids ( over 50 successful bids ) , however after registering and placing bids on 3 lots that were with Adam Partridge I received an error message saying the auctioneer wants to manually vet the bids and suggesting I contact them directly if I want a quicker response .There was no answer on the phone and I left a message - no response . I rang again the next day - no answer (14/8 ) . I then received a request for photo ID which I provided .as at the end of the 17 th August I still have not received a response . The auction is over .I would suggest people take their business elsewhere !

Excellent help
Adam Partridge auctioneers is very easy and helpful to deal with with the staff being very helpful. They replied to condition report requests very promptly answering all questions I asked. They have also packaged and arranged for my lots to be delivered by Royal Mail special delivery which makes a great difference to me in keeping the postage costs down. this was done efficiently and sent on a day i requested really excellent

Ask for a valuation and received a response requesting more information, I gave information and never did they contact me again???
Terrible service, I wanted them to sell my item for me, anyway I chose another auction room who collected it and gave me a valuation, must be nice to be able to refuse business.

Huge Star wars Auction!!
We as a family are extremely happy with how we have been helped by Adam Partridge Auctioneers. Emmeline was so lovely and advised really well on our whole Star Wars room. We obviously could have sold the many items ourselves and without doubt would have raised more funds. But after losing My Husband we were really greatful for Emmelines assistance, who advised how the auction process worked and explained about how most of the items would only fetch a basic auction price . I can wholeheartedly recommend the auction process and commend every member of staff we have dealt with, who has been so kind and informative. Many thanks to you all, for your help in our darkest hour!
A satisfied customer at an auction house.
Making contact with the Ruislip branch of Adam Partridge for the first time proved to be helpful and rewarding. I found that the Office Manager put me at ease and I was able to negotiate on the purchase of an item that had failed to sell at auction. After purchase, I was kept informed of delivery arrangements and the item was carefully packed. My experience of this auction house was excellent and I now own a really nice piece that I am proud of.

I was extremely disappointed with my experience.
I contacted the auction house regarding a limited-edition artwork that originally cost £4,000 and of which only three were ever produced. Rather than receiving any meaningful advice, I was dismissively told to "stick it on Marketplace." For a business that specialises in valuing and selling art and collectibles, I found this response both incredibly patronising and unprofessional from Chris.
I replied to explain the significance and provenance of the piece and hoped for a more considered assessment, but never received any further response. The complete lack of follow-up only added to the frustration.
Whether or not the artwork was suitable for their auction, I would have expected a courteous explanation and a level of customer service that reflected the nature of the item. Instead, I was left feeling brushed off and undervalued as a potential client.
A very disappointing experience that fell far below the professionalism I expected.

My contact at Adam Partridge in Liverpool was extremely helpful and friendly with a happy disposition.
She is extremely hard working, contentious and has a great knowledge of antiques. I was very confident that the best price would be obtained for my items.
Thank you.
Thank You Emmeline!
This was the second occasion I met Emmeline from the Liverpool Auction House at Wallasey Village Library for free valuations. I first met her last October at the same venue. Emmeline came to my house and gave me an honest opinion and fair valuation which came to fruition at the subsequent auctions. I am most grateful to her. She is absolutely charming with everyone and very knowledgeable, and it was lovely to meet Cath too.
I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Adam was truly remarkable; I found him to be incredibly understanding, courteous, efficient and approachable. Always replying promptly and politely with care and excellent advice. He was generous with his time and knowledge and at no point did I feel under any pressure or obligation. I genuinely believe that Adam has a great level of knowledge, skill and experience and wants the best for the individual and also for the item. I would not hesitate to recommend his services and will definitely use his company for all future valuations and sales. Thank you very much Adam.
An auctioneer you can trust
I have been downsizing for some time, and taking my antiques, collectables and jewellery to Steven Parkinson at the Preston Office was a very wise decision on my part. He is always a pleasure to deal with. I value him for his knowledge and experience, and also for his clear guidance as to what will and will not sell in an auction environment. This means that the things I have taken to him did sell, for prices which were more than acceptable to me, and some did very well. I have watched the auctions live and they do their best to sell every item, and sadly that cannot be said of all auctioneers. The paperwork is clear and straightforward. I will continue to trust Steven and Adam Partridge as I continue with my downsizing.
Excellent service from the team
Excellent service from the team. Emails quickly answered, information on my sales prompt and correct. Special thanks to Niall who we met on a valuation day and came to give us an evaluation . Very experienced and auction went ahead. With mostly good priced reached.
