WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT US

"Just a note of thanks for your refreshingly efficient service.
The sword arrived this morning, fully tracked with parcel2go, and I've been slashing at Wellington's enemies all morning.
Come to think of it, where are my kids?

By contrast I bought a sword at [ *auction house name omitted] the previous Saturday and I'm still waiting for mailboxes to give me their shipping quotes. [ * ] apparently won't pack swords because they can be scanned and destroyed in the post!
I look forward to the next time."

I think they would have survived all but a direct nuclear strike! Much obliged."

I’ve been buying comics off and on for over 45 years and rarely if ever have I had BETTER PACKING ANYWHERE.
Thank you for offering P+P
Thank you for getting it right.”

“I have just received the purchased binocular item (January 2019) and wanted to say thank you for the safe, tight and secure packaging. Often, even the professional courier services, fail to recognise the extra care that is sometimes required for these fragile instruments. This is the second time I have been successful with you for my passion subject, both occasions a joy!

Please pass my sentiments to those it concerns.”

“A Big thank you for your excellent delivery service, the likes of which I've never experienced from any other auctioneers.
I couldn't believe the 2 lots from Saturday’s auction arrived today, I'm so impressed, long may it continue.”

“Just to inform you that my parcel arrived this morning.
I must say the way my items were packed is without a shadow of doubt second to none.
Never have I received a parcel so well cared for, your professionalism has no limits.

P.S Give the packer a cigar from me”

You really shouldn't have such reasonable postage, its going to be terrible for my bank account lol!”

"I have just received another consignment from you - thank you very much for the prompt dispatch.

I would just like you to relay my thanks to your packing team. I am a Business seller & know just how hard it is to pack things safely for courier delivery. I am very impressed with your team, almost overpacked, not a sniff of any damage - don't think it would have been possible to damage anything anyway short of being sat on by an elephant 😊. It takes a lot to impress me, but, your team have managed it. Far, far superior to Mailboxes & much quicker & cheaper.

From listening to Paul auctioneer through to the dispatch & packing teams & your office staff, 100% satisfied.
In this day & age, not enough praise is given, so a very big thankyou to you all.

I also enjoyed that Auctioneer from last Saturday, but, do not know their name 😊

Undoubtedly I will be back, but, now bidding on a wider range of items as, I am sure of safe packing. Best wishes & have a lovely Friday"

"Just to say what a pleasure it is to deal with your sale room. Having postage and packing already included makes life so much easier. You can't believe the hassle of working with other Houses that argue the toss of why they can't offer such a service. I have now developed a Mastermind specialist subject knowledge of 'Couriers, Freight Forwarders and Pre-paid envelope requirements of the UK'.

Keep up the good work - shame I can't spend more with you."

It was very nice of you to do it and a treat for me to have it done without extra cost! If you wanted to spoil me you have!!!"

"I am pleased to advise that my parcel arrived yesterday safe and sound.
Please thank whoever did the packing - they did an excellent job. The condition report I received prior to the auction was also accurate. Your service is to be commended - I experience very disappointing service from far too many auctioneers around the country both as a seller and a buyer.
It's good to meet people who care."
