Sell to Us · Santa Monica
Sell vintage in Santa Monica, the original beach city.
Santa Monica’s history stacks in layers: the pleasure pier decades, Muscle Beach’s golden era, Douglas Aircraft building the DC-3 a mile from the sand, and the long rent-controlled era that kept apartments, and their contents, unchanged for fifty years. Those layers surface whenever a household here turns over.
Free visit · cash offers · no obligation
We make westside calls weekly: estates north of Montana, time-capsule apartments near the beach, and the family homes of Sunset Park, evaluated privately and paid in cash. The westside’s resale shops price retail and consign; we buy outright at your door.
What Santa Monica households hold
Douglas era pieces
Aircraft plant badges, photographs, instruments, and the keeping of DC-era careers.
Beach culture history
Muscle Beach photographs, pier ephemera, paddleboards, and the sand’s golden decades.
Apartment time capsules
Mid-century contents preserved whole by long tenancies, furniture to barware.
Art and design
The collected walls and shelves of a city that always attracted taste.
Estates
Complete households, canyon to beach, handled with westside discretion.
Time-capsule apartments are a specialty
Fifty-year tenancies made Santa Monica apartments into accidental museums: furniture bought young, kept forever, and never updated because nothing ever broke. Clearing one is delicate: timelines are short, buildings have rules, and the contents deserve better than a dumpster. We handle the whole arc: respectful walkthrough, fair offer, building-compliant removal, and a broom-clean handback to management. Ocean Park to Wilshire, one call.
A Recent Find
A 1940s Levi’s Type 1 jacket, sold to us by a former dealer who knew exactly what he had. We paid $12,000 in cash, the same day.

Common questions
Can you work within apartment building move-out rules?
Yes: elevator reservations, insurance certificates, and loading windows are routine for us, and we coordinate directly with management when families are remote.
Was Douglas Aircraft material really kept in homes?
Constantly: badges, photographs, manuals, and presentation pieces went home with careers, and collectors of aviation history seek all of it. The plant built this city; its paper is everywhere.
Do your offers account for westside resale prices?
They account for real selling prices in the markets we use, which is what honest wholesale means. We will explain the spread openly; no one leaves confused about how the number was built.
