UK-licensed consignment platform operating under the Licensing Act 2003. Sell fine spirits with 0% sales commission—just a flat £4.99 listing fee and £0.20 + 1.9% card processing deducted only once sold. Keep your bottle safely at home until purchased.
No hidden deductions, and £0 upfront to list. We charge 0% sales commission, simply deducting our flat £4.99 listing fee and standard card processing (£0.20 + 1.9%) from your proceeds once your bottle sells.
Unlike auction houses that take 15% to 25% of your bottle's value, we take zero commission cut. You only cover our flat £4.99 listing fee and standard Stripe card processing (£0.20 + 1.9%), deducted only once sold.
You pay nothing upfront to list your bottle. Our flat £4.99 listing fee plus payment processing (£0.20 + 1.9%) is deducted only from your proceeds after your bottle successfully sells. If your bottle doesn't sell, you pay nothing.
You don't need to send us your bottle upfront. You retain possession until a sale is confirmed.
Submit clear photos of the bottle, capsule, fill level, and packaging using our seller form. We review authenticity and agree on a valuation.
We list your bottle on Southwest Spirits and syndicate across our collector Facebook and Instagram channels, handling buyer enquiries and marketing.
Once a buyer pays, you ship the bottle to our licensed Cornwall premises for expert inspection and authenticity verification.
We box the bottle in specialist drop-tested packaging and dispatch with mandatory 18+ signature delivery, transferring your funds promptly.
The short answer is no. Private individuals are strictly prohibited from selling alcohol on eBay. Under UK licensing laws and eBay policy, only commercial businesses holding an approved Premises Licence and Personal Licences may list alcohol. Any unauthorised private listings will be taken down.
Southwest Spirits is the legal UK solution. We act as your licensed sales agent on consignment under the Licensing Act 2003. You pay 0% sales commission and £0 upfront. You keep the bottle at home until sold, and we handle the legal compliance, authenticity verification, and age-verified delivery.
Every bottle sold through Southwest Spirits is inspected and dispatched under UK alcohol licensing rules.
