I’ve only been collecting for a couple of years and haven’t got to the point where I need to fill gaps with very hard to find items (well, maybe a couple, and I’ve chanced across some very rare pieces along the way) I was a bit confused by some dealers when trying to find out how much stuff was worth early on. Obviously it’s worth what the buyer is prepared to pay.

So I take people’s point that some dealers offer a service to people who require a rare item in best condition and are prepared to pay a premium for the effort made to track down these pieces in the first place.

I suppose in particular Tim Dyson seems to be the only dealer who specialises in items in really fantastic condition, so he’s offering a unique service.

Sage council as ever chaps,
Matt.
