Cavelink consignment
Consignment, explained simply
Entrust us with your bottles: we value them, list them with the finest tables and only take a commission once they sell. No advance, no hidden fees.
The principle
You consign, we sell
Consignment is a sales mandate: your bottles remain your property until they sell. Cavelink values them, lists them with a curated network of restaurants and wine bars, then handles the entire commercial relationship. You pay nothing until the bottle sells.
How it works
Four steps, zero complexity
Free valuation
Send a few photos and details. Our sommelier replies within 48 hours with a recommended price.
Added to the catalogue
Once you accept the price, your bottle joins our catalogue and becomes visible to restaurant-industry experts.
Sold at the right price
We find the right buyer and handle the transaction, logistics and follow-up from end to end.
You get paid
As soon as the sale closes, you receive the agreed net amount. Our commission is only charged on success.
Why consignment
The benefits for you
