Declutter for cash with antique buyers arriving
In today’s trend of downsizing and decluttering our homes, it’s the perfect time to go through those drawers and cupboards, to turn those unwanted items into cash. Antique Buyers, and father-son duo, Mike and Nate, will be travelling the North Brisbane area for two weeks only, starting Saturday, 15th February.
“We are enthusiastic buyers, particularly interested in gold jewellery, whether broken or intact, antique jewellery, gold and silver coins, collectibles including military medals, and banknotes, as well as mechanical watches,” says Mike Cornish, the company’s chief buyer.
“Everyone has something we want to buy, and nothing is too small for our consideration. We are just as happy to buy one item as we are buying 10,000!”
If you're in doubt about any items you wish to sell, take them in for an instant appraisal. No appointment is needed.
Gold and Silver still at high prices
With the gold price still at higher-than-traditional levels, now is an opportune time to explore your jewellery box and dig out those old gold chains, rings, and brooches to turn them into cash.
Mike emphasizes, “This is an ideal time to sell. We will buy anything made of gold – old jewellery, coins, virtually anything, even gold teeth! We also need silver in any form, including coins and bars of any size.”
Old coins can toss up a rarity
Check those drawers and cupboards—you may have a rarity lurking among your coins.
“We want to see any old foreign coin accumulations. Bags, tins, boxes, folders—however they come, we will be quite happy to go through your coins on the spot and give you an idea of what we can pay. You just never know what can turn up!”
Rolex and mechanical watches wanted
Mechanical watches are urgently needed by the buyers.
“Collectors at this stage want brands such as Rolex, Omega, Patek Philippe, Longines, and Seiko, just to name a few. These brands can command good prices depending on the model and condition,” Mike explains. “If you're unsure, bring your watches in for an appraisal.”
Home visits are offered
For those unable to make it to a venue or with too much to carry, home visits are available. Refer to the advertisement on page 11 for home visit times, then call Nate on 0426 820 646 to book your appointment.
