We have qualified clients to make immediate, private acquisitions and as well the have the proper media contacts to garner national, if not international attention.
What is Brokering vs. Representation?
Rockology has a proven track record of brokering artifacts, as it has an established client base in which to approach with a new artifact. Upon consigning memorabilia, Rockology will convey realistic expectations regarding offers, as well as make the communication between parties seamless throughout the process of collecting funds and transferring the purchased piece to the new owner as the sale is brought to fruition.
Additionally, Rockology can solely represent memorabilia items for clients who wish to inquire about consigning an artifact with an auction house or loan it to a museum. Many memorabilia collectors are unfamiliar with negotiating auction house commissions and/or being knowledgeable of the communications needed involved in the auctioning process, so Rockology can help play middleman during this process.
