While most bottles at Unicorn Auctions do sell, there are rare cases where a bottle doesn’t receive bids or meet a reserve price. Here’s what happens next—and your options as a consignor.
❌ Why Didn’t My Bottle Sell?
There could be several reasons:
- The starting price or reserve was too high
- Limited demand for the bottle in this auction cycle
If your bottle doesn’t sell, don’t worry—you have options.
🔁 Option 1: Relist in a Future Auction
Most consignors choose to relist unsold bottles in a future auction at no additional cost.
You can work with our team to:
- Adjust the starting bid or reserve price based on our reserve policy.
- If a bottle does not sell, no fees will be incurred.
📩 To relist, reply to your post-auction email or contact:
consignment@unicornauctions.com
📦 Option 2: Retrieve Your Bottle
If you prefer not to relist, you can:
- Pick up your bottle from our warehouse (by appointment)
- Request return shipping (shipping fees apply)
Let us know your preference by contacting support and we’ll coordinate the return process.
📝 Important Notes
- Unicorn Auctions does not charge additional fees for relisting
- Return shipping costs will vary by bottle size, weight, and location
- Bottles must be claimed within a reasonable timeframe after auction close
