Try Fundraising Auctions

With regards to your forthcoming fundraising events, Superstars are the only established suppliers of 100% authentic sports memorabilia for charity auctions, sportsman’s dinners, golfing days, gala balls to name a few. If you like the idea of enhancing your fundraising potential at no cost to you or the charity, we would be happy to supply all your chosen memorabilia items on a sale or return basis, so there is absolutely no risk involved.

We will pay for all chosen items to be shipped to your event or delivered in person and if they do not reach the reserve, we will simply collect them from you. The idea being, that you pick n mix as many items from our website as you envisage selling (5 or 500, its still free), we will then set a reserve price for each one (lower than our internet/retail prices!). As soon as the first bid is registered, the item has sold and the rest is all for the charity. 95% of our auctions sell all of their chosen items on the night, making for a very rewarding return, that required very little input on your behalf.

For example, a Pele signed Brazil shirt framed presentation.
Retail price is £699.00, your auction price £395.00, the cost to your charity £0.00, sold at auction for £1150.00, your charities profits £755.00. On just one item!!

If you are planning on 150+ guests at your event and pick over 15 items, we would offer our services to physically attend your event and run a 'Silent Auction' part of your evening at no extra cost. If you do not require a physical auction, you could display a few items on the wall to decorate your event, with the option of the audience buying. Say you already have a supplier of auction items, not a problem, take a look at our web site, see what we can offer and try superstars on your next event or call for more information.

Thank You and Best Regards
