Collecter's Items

[teddy]

I believe everyone should move house at least every ten years. It makes you turn out. We have been here 30 years and now have a shed full of my mothers things as well as everything else. We are trying to undertake a massive reorganisation at the moment but it is hampered by the fact we do not know where we will be living. I have a collection of MatchBox models, mostly over 50 years old but they have lived in a box for at least 20 years. I have come to the conclusion that I may as well sell them. At least some one else will get pleasure from them.

They could well fetch good money, do a bit of research into them and find a good outlet.

Google gives a lot of sites. Found one with lists for sale, noticed prices up to £85, most between £15 and £40

I do have some rare ones Mike but unfortunately my mother threw the boxes away when I was little. This does have an effect on the price of course. The trouble is at the moment I do not have the time or energy to do anything with them. I could do with a month off to get myself organised and get some of these jobs done.

Do it before you retire, you'll never have time afterwards!!
