Welcome to Violin Auctions, an exciting new site launched in 2007 brings together Musicians and their Instruments throughout the world as buyers and sellers.

It is a global marketplace for all musical instruments, strings, accessories and much more. Not only a place to trade modest or student instruments but also the place to find rare antique and collectable items.

Trading on Violin Auctions is straightforward and exciting and you never know what you might find. Once you have registered you have the option of placing your item in a 'LIVE AUCTION' with or without a reserve, or run a 'CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENT' where your item is advertised at your set price for a longer period of time. 

Classified advertising is a good way to sell your item. With figures running at almost a million hits per month, your item will be seen by thousands of potential buyers. Having a good photograph on the home page or a thumbnail in the listings will undoubtedly increase your chance of selling.

You can browse without having to register but if you would like to buy or sell then:
