What We BUY & SELL

The Short Answer

We are primarily deal in, and buy and sell patented primwash.jpg (22232 bytes)and mechanical American antiques.  This includes Tool and Technology related antiques, Scientific related antiques, antique Advertising, General  or Country Store antiques and antiques commonly referred to as Americana.   

If you have antiques and collectibles that fall into these criteria and want sell them please contact us and we will work out some sort of a deal, or negotiate a price we can both live with.  That is the short and simple answer.  

The Longer Answer

If you have an antique or antiques that you feel we would be interested in but do not know what you want for your antique, or are just curious as to its value while researching your antique,  please read the rest of this page and the other associated pages oparker2.jpg (29286 bytes)n this site, including the FAQ page for further information before contacting us about your antique(s). 

If you do not  know the value of your antique you can use the many resources available on this site, including the Patent Date Chart reference provided to help determine the age.  You can find numerous values for antiques on our sister site www.Patented-Antiques.com, or you can check current values for given antiques by using eBay.  We provide many values for antiques at our sister site  www.Patented-Antiques.com on the sales pages and prices for past sales on the archives of past sales pages there.  

In most cases you can accomplish this by utilizing resources available on these pages, or elsewhere on the Internet, or by simply paying the nominal sum charged by an online or other appraisal service.  There are many services or individuals that can and do provide this service for a reasonable fee.

NOTE:  We have a standing offer to fully reimburse you for the reasonable appraisal fee you paid should you offer us that antique, and we buy it.

We Sell Antiques on Consignment!

Our 2 internet websites are now devoted to helping sellers realize the most possible for f6.jpg (22610 bytes)their antiques through a consignment sales approach.  In a consignment sale situation, both you the owner / seller, and me, the end seller are working together to realize the best price for your piece.

If you have antiques you are interested in selling, and want us to help you sell them please contact us at LCM@AntiqBuyer.com with all pertinent details and we will happily discuss it with you. 

Offers for Antiques

Consignment sales not for you?  Want a quick sale and an offer for your Antique?  Read On.

If you do not know how much you want for your antique, cannot name a price, and you want me to make you an offer I will after determining that I actually have an interest in it. 

But there is a catch. 

After determining I have an interest, we will arrange for you to ship it to us, and after examining it and determining its real condition and value I will make you a fair and reasonable offer.  If you are not happy with that offer I will re-pack it and send it back to you and all you will be out is some time and the cost of shipping.  A free appraisal and offer for the cost of shipping.  Fair enough?  

I sell antiques on a consignment basis or I will list your antiques on eBay if that is the way you want to go.  I am currently selling a large and diverse collection of antique tools, and another antique collection related to general store and advertising and it is working out well for all parties to date, but there are certain restrictions and standards to be met.  Please see the FAQ page for more info on this.  .

Thank You!
