Edinburgh
 Scotland's Leading Dealer, Valuer, and Auctioneer, for stamps, coins, banknotes, medals, and cards. Thank you for visiting our website. "Retirement Sale" big mixes. We've got big stocks of this stuff so we've decided to make up some special clearance batches. Our stock of these is of millions of stamps so we'd be happy for you to buy a few thousand ! Each lot will be 500g of world off-paper, plus 200g of UK off-paper, and we'll also chuck in a few odd "freebies" with each batch. (If you buy a repeat lot we'll try not to repeat the same free items. Therefore if you are making a repeat order please tell us when you bought your previous one.) There will definitely be duplication among the thousands of stamps you get, and please allow for there being some damaged here and there. (There might even be an odd stamp on-paper, etc. There is so much stuff we can't possibly check each one.) Give one a go ! £40 per lot |
The big news
is that Robert Murray is working towards
semi-retirement. The selling-off of stock is underway,
as a mix between retail sales, wholesale sales, and
auction sales. We have stopped doing our "quick informative valuations", and we are not buying any material for stock. Neither are we currently accepting material for sale by auction. We do however still carry out formal valuations (e.g. for insurance or estate valuation), and we can still handle gold coins etc. If you are wanting to sell stamps, coins, postcards, banknotes, etc. we do have list of other dealers available - please email us asking for a copy. We are working towards having at least two more online auctions (i.e. at least one live and one timed) but have still to set dates for these. Current plans are for a duo of auctions (Live and Timed) in late-Spring/early-Summer 2023, which will be clearing lots of our stock. There will be lots suitable for collectors and for dealers. The retail shop is not open at any regular hours, though customers can visit by appointment, or can get in touch to arrange to pick up items they would like to purchase. *** The retail shop will be open on the following dates. Thursday 1st June, 10am to 4pm Saturday 17th June, 10am to 4pm No appointment required. We continue to put out new stock. Support from customers has been very encouraging, and stock in some areas is dwindling ! Keep watching here, and on our Facebook page, for notes about new stock etc. *** In the meantime, we are visiting areas of our very large stock, and we'll list below different categories as and when we can "go live" with them. FUTURE PLANS In due course the shop will be closed, we will have disposed of our stocks, and we'll not be running auctions. However, Bob Murray will still be active in the stamps and collectables world - carrying out valuations, giving advice to clients with collections for sale, and connecting collectors/dealers/auctioneers where appropriate. With his lengthy experience he's well placed to point people in the right direction. |
