Sporting Memorabilia

Delcampe: a true collectors paradise !
If you are a collector I strongly recommend that you take a look at Delcampe.
It is an international Buy & Sell Fixed Price and Auction website specifically designed for collectors.
Many thousands of collectables are listed and illustrated. I am sure you will find many items within your field of interests.
Take a look by clicking the Link above.
Registration is simple and FREE!! with hundreds of new members signing on every day. No costs to buyer!!



Listed below are collectable items relating to Sport.
All at fixed prices. I often sell interesting items via ebay. It may be in your interest to keep an eye on my ebay entries and or join my secure emailing list. For further details please click the Site Map here or above.

This catalogue is in the process of construction and will build up gradually as time permits. I have hundreds of items from my own collection that I now wish to dispose of at bargain prices.

The list will be updated on a regular basis with new items added and sold items removed.
The list should therefore be worth revisiting on a regular basis and/or entering on your favourites list.

To order simply copy the item/s and paste it/them into your email order.
I will then confirm your order and invoice you as soon as possible including postage charges.
I will endeavour to keep the list up to date but there may be the odd occasion where an item has already been sold and I have not had time to remove it.
(Please note I am a one man business and time is always at a premium)

If you have any constructive suggestions that may improve this service please email me.

All prices are in GBP (Great Britain Pounds) Postage is extra.
Go to Frequently Asked Questions  for how to order and methods of payment etc.
You can obtain a discount on completed orders from this catalogue or combination of catalogues from my website.
    2.5% discount if invoice totals between GBP 5.00 and GBP 10.00
    5.0% discount if invoice totals between GBP 10.00 and GBP 25.00
    7.5% discount if invoice totals between GBP 25.00 and GBP 50.00
    10.0% discount if invoice totals between GBP 50.00 and GBP 100.00

I will automatically calculate any qualifying discount before sending you a pro forma invoice.
