Pass it on.A whole collection.

A few questions and some photographs of it where it stands.
Within two days, from the person who would come.
On camera where it lives, on a call, or in writing.
For all of it, paid at once. With your name, your story goes with every piece.
Someone spent years choosing these.
Tell us what it is and why it is time to move it on. We buy the whole of it, and every piece goes to somebody who will actually use it and who wants to know where it has been. We come to you anywhere in Europe; from further away, we arrange the shipping and the customs papers.
Tell us about it.
About five minutes · answered within two daysThree ways the story gets recorded
On camera, where it lives: we come to the collection and film it properly, you talking about how it started, the room and the shelves as they are, the objects in your hands. On a call: if the collection is sent to us, we have the same conversation over video and write it up. In writing: answer a handful of questions in your own time and in your own words, and it goes with the objects exactly as you wrote it.
What makes the number what it is
Between a third and a half of a collection sells at all; the rest is taken away and paid for anyway. The good pieces count at what comparable examples actually sold for, not at the best day on the internet. Collecting, testing, repairing, photographing, storing, shipping, fees, returns, insurance and tax are all on us. You name your number on the form, and you get an honest answer to it either way.
What we are looking for
Ten pieces and up, or fewer if they are exceptional. Any condition: broken, incomplete, boxed, mixed. Mixed is better than pure, and everything goes, including the parts that will never appear on Unseend.
What we say no to
Anything too large or too fragile to move sensibly, and collections already listed piece by piece somewhere else. Fewer than ten pieces? Sell a piece instead.
Where do you buy?
Anywhere. Within Europe we can come and collect. From further away, we agree the price first and arrange the shipping and the customs papers; you pay nothing for it. We pay in your own currency.
