Hello Fellow Collectors

Hi Fellow collectors of stuff , I have been collecting and trading Antiques, Collectables & Curios from all over the place for 30+ years now , My knowledge is ok so I hope I can pass on some info to my fellow hoarders in time to come, I dont know everything but hey who does ? Those that claim they do usually dont know very much at all , I buy and sell online, at bootsales, auction houses, dealers and markets, Im always coming across a wide range of goods some of which i keep some get shifted on, Such is the life of an antiquer.

 

Hello Richard. I am also a collector of 'stuff'. As I get older, though, it's time to unload most of it so my kids don't get stuck with it.

 

Welcome to Antiquers Richard!

 

Hello, Richard. Many of us could have written that intro. We can always use another experienced neuron to add to our collective brain. Now let's see some stuff!

 

Greetings, Richard! You've landed in the right place!

Hi and WELCOME, Richard!!! The more members, the MERRIER!!!!! We DO get sidetracked with some fun once in a while too!!!!

 

Welcome to the forum, Richard, looking forward to your input.

 

Welcome

 

Yes i am from Bonnie Scotland which is unfortuneatly part of the UK , The good thing about here as i once heard a quote saying , As the uk was last invaded in 1066 most of its treasures have remained un-looted, Suppose thats a good thing for our fellow antiquers, Antiques aside its a cess-pit im afraid , im hoping for a big score some day then im outta here.

You'll have another chance the next time you have a referendum. Start lobbying, I think you could have a different outcome.
I am in the Netherlands, by the way, and have Scottish (SNP) relatives. They could be coming overhere after brexit.....

 

Hi Richard and welcome. Despite being Aussie, with my Grandfather named Keith Wallace and my Grandmother's maiden name Bruce, guess where my family comes from?

 

And you couldn't find two better names in Scottish history. Here the great men are, on either side of the Edinburgh Castle gate:

 

Hey AJ. What a fantastic image. Thanks so much. I still haven't been to Scotland yet, but plan to travel there next year. Now you've inspired me.
