Edward Parker Wines Online Auction - We will be holding another one of our very popular online auctions from 23rd to 25th February 2010. This provides an excellent opportunity to buy and sell wines and we are asking those who are interested in selling to let us know what wines they would be interested in offering so we are able to value them and set a reserve on your behalf. Single bottles, loose bottles or cases of any size will be considered. In some instances we will ask for photographs to confirm the condition of the labels and the levels in the bottle. We will also request a storage history on the wines offered.  Sellers are charged a commission of 5% on the sale value of their wine. Please contact peta@edwardparkerwines.co.uk as soon as possible if you are interested in selling any wine.
