Bonded Auction services. Enormous online jewelry auction site.

You've found a lot (item) that you like, but you don't want to come back to place a real-time bid during the auction. You can place an "absentee" bid instead. Here's how it works.

Approved bidders can place absentee bids up to one hour before the live event begins. When the auction starts, we will then process all the absentee bids and calculate what the winning absentee bid is. The winning absentee bid equals the second highest bid plus one bid increment. This value will be communicated to the auctioneer. Example

If you do not have an eBay account, you may place your absentee bids here. If you have an active eBay account, please click here to place your bids through the eBay system.

Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (M.S.R.P.) price is set by the Manufacturer of this fine jewelry and it represents full retail price for this item. M.S.R.P. is a price that the factory intends to charge for replacement of this jewelry as a special order item. Therefore, M.S.R.P. price is only a guide for replacement and will help you to obtain insurance coverage. It should not be used as a guideline for what you pay. This M.S.R.P. is not an appraised value or market value, as these are different. Due to gemstones being hand cut, weights may vary slightly from posted weight.

We encourage bidders to educate themselves prior to bidding. Take the time to read up on grading, quality, CTW of gems, total gold gram weight and other relevant specifications regarding fine jewelry and then make an informed decision.

Should any dispute occur between bidders, HJA reserves the exclusive right to cancel the auction and immediately re-list the item up for bid. HJA's sole discretion shall be binding upon all bidders. HJA reserves the right to group multiple lots together and prior to bidding, withdraw any lot from the sale. The highest bidder acknowledged by HJA shall be the Buyer except in the case where the bid is held by the reserve. HJA may accept or reject any bid amount at its sole discretion. HJA reserves the sole right to refuse to honor any bid that is not submitted in good faith or supported by references to the satisfaction of HJA. Buyer personally guarantees the payment of the item(s) for this sale. If HJA deems that the Buyer is in default, HJA may, in its sole discretion either cancel the sale of the lot(s) and retain as liquidated damages all of the funds paid by Buyer to HJA and/or resell the lot(s) in any matter necessary by HJA. HJA may be a consignor of this sale. HJA reserves the right to add or withdraw items to or from the auction at any time prior to or after the auction without notice even if buyer has already paid for the item (if the item is paid for by Buyer and withdrawn by HJA, then HJA shall provide a complete refund to Buyer). Buyer agrees to hold HJA harmless from any and all liability arising from HJA, its appointed officials, members, employees, auctioneer, the company and its agent and employees, the event organizers, sponsors and or volunteers in connection with this auction.

All items are subject to a 15% Buyer's Premium. The Buyer's Premium is a fee traditionally charged by auction houses on the sale of fine goods. It is added to the winning bid/pre-auction sale price and is paid by the buyer as part of the total sale price. More specifically, auctioneers collect a premium to pay for their services (e.g. hosting a live auction event, advertising, authenticity guarantees, storage, and handling of merchandise).
