ARUNDEL’S Dealer In Antiques Is Still Buying As Shops Re Open .

It is almost impossible to determine precisely what drives both buyers and sellers to our website . Ebay has devastated the value of most Antiques ,I have recently tried selling on Ebay whilst my high street store was closed , The experience was not good .The volume of goods greatly out numbers the available informed receptive buyers . I capitalised on this and started buying some items of furniture . On one occasion I collected an item from a vendor and told him that had he visited me I would have paid him more he invaited me to attend his storage locker and I purchased a further three items directly and we are still negotiating in other areas. Please do your homework first before contacting me at Antiques & Militaria . I am always more comfortable paying above the average of EBAY results .

When faced with the daunting task of selling Family treasures or a cherished collection one obvious choice is to contact a local auctioneer . You should be warned that you will only receive 50% of what the buyer pays at auction. Perhaps a better option is to allow us to research the items you propose selling ? By establishing what prices have been achieved for similar items in the past we equal or better recorded prices without your being robbed in unnecessary charges . Here is a great example of what you can expect from us . 100% of the recorded value rather than the 50% Auctioneers provide .. What is in it for us ? That is easy we are high street retailers and museum suppliers . We have an appetite for fresh goods to be supplied to our growing number of History buyers.

Antique Jewellery Buyers Arundel

 

David Mattey is  a highly experienced buyer of Nineteenth century jewellery ,silver and watches .

The Prime Position Of David’s High Street Shop Attracts Thousands Of Wealthy Buyers From Around The World. The Recent “Goodwood Revival” Encouraged Noted Buyers From Around The World To Include Multi Millionaires.

Why Sell To A Middleman (Auctioneers) Sell Directly To The Store In The Centre  Of Arundel High Street..  Selling to a jewellers ? Be warned Jewels will simply pay you the “Break value” of your jewellery .. That equates to the scrap metal price of less with little consideration for the gem tones .. Never sell jewellery at auction . Why ? Auctioneers take around 50% of an items value by the questionable practise of charging both the buyer and seller a commission. With much of the jewellery at auction selling to the trade and a 50% slice of the pie going to the auctioneers you are better selling directly to  professionals.

When We Buy Antique Jewellery ,Sellers Will Be Pleased To Know That They Will Achieve Up To 50% More Than They Would Achieve At Auction.

Why? Well That Is Easy. Auctioneers Charge The Buyer 25% “Buyers Premium”On Top Of The Hammer Price ..Yes I Know It Sounds Hard To Believe But It Is Entirely True .

                                                                          

 

 

Customers Are Cleverly Duped Into Believing That Auctions Are Fare And Democratic Institutions.
