they choose.

After the sale is completed, you receive your proceeds directly from Lantern Joe Auctions.

You can choose your preferred payout method:

• PayPal

This allows buyers to use different payment methods while keeping the payment process

simple and organized for consignors.

ITEM REVIEW & APPROVAL

All items are reviewed and approved before being listed for auction.

Not every item submitted is necessarily accepted. This allows us to maintain the quality and focus of our auctions.

YOU CHOOSE HOW YOU'RE IDENTIFIED

Consignors have the option to:

Remain anonymous

or

Be identified by name as the seller

We'll follow your preference when creating the auction listing.

HOW THE AUCTION WORKS

Once your item has been approved and listed, the auction takes place through Lantern Joe Auctions on Facebook.

Once the reserve has been met, the 24-hour bid rules begin.

We handle the messaging between buyers and sellers throughout the transaction process.

LISTING CHARGE POLICY

A $5 listing charge will apply to any item that does not receive any bids after 5 days of being listed and therefore does not sell.
