Selling to us

Please read FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) before reading this page

If you're reading this you probably have a camera or collection for sale or at least know someone who has.  Obviously you would like the best possible price but you haven't yet decided how to go about selling the equipment.  Here's a few reasons why you should consider selling to us (or allowing us to sell your equipment on your behalf, on a commission sale basis)

• We are specialists.  Collectable cameras are not a sideline, they are our business.  Non-specialist camera dealers do not have the knowledge or customer base to allow them to achieve the best price.  That's why many sell to us.

• We have a constant demand for quality equipment in first class condition.  For this reason we are regularly buying at fairs and auctions throughout Europe.

• If you sell your equipment through our commission sale scheme, we make every effort to sell your camera(s) as quickly as possible.  We list them on our website, add them to our lists sent to customers and advertise them as necessary.

• Depending on the size and value of your collection, we can often come to you or arrange for the equipment to be collected.

• We will also purchase modern secondhand equipment and books.

If you have decided to sell your camera or collection to us, please email, phone or write (see contact us) giving brief details of what you have for sale.  

Please contact us before sending any equipment
