i've only been collecting militaria and medals for about a year and a half now and i've been getting all my things from one store, they sell great stuff. I've been looking around for other stores where i live but unable to find another good genuine store that sells medals and militaria. I live in SE queensland in the brisbane metro area, does anyone have an idea of any good places?

Discussion and Help - Ancient Art, Antiquities, Artifacts and Coins

Archeology — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 11:25:16 GMT

Hi,
I'm Bruce from Archeology Pty Ltd and I'd like to start a discussion thread on ancient artifacts, coins and antiquities. This is our family business and we have been working with some of the world’s best dealers, museums and collectors over the last 10 years to buy and sell some amazing ancient art and artifacts.

I have an extensive library of reference books and am a member of: The American Numismatic Association, The Numismatic Association of Australia, The Archaeology and Anthropology Society of Victoria. I have a wonderful friendship and professional network of learned scholars and very experienced dealers all over the world. So if anyone would like help with valuations, authenticity opinions and general discussion, I'm happy to assist, where I can.

Early Bronze Age, Neolithic, Iron Age, Judean (Biblical), Roman, Byzantine, Greek, Nabatean, Seleucid, Islamic, Samaritan, Egyptian, Gaul, Celtic, Christian and more. We define an ancient artifact, art work, antiquity or coin to be at least 800 years old. We do not deal in items less than 800 years old (pre-1200 AD (C.E.))

Cheers
Bruce

Vinyl, worth hanging onto or sell it now?

prodech — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 18:30:48 GMT

Hi

I've got a small collection of old vinyl. It's a mixture of stuff, Sex Pistols picture discs, Damned and Bauhaus original albums and some really old Monkees and Bonzo Dog Doodah Band albums. Any collectors out there know if vinyl is worth hanging onto, or should I just bite the bullet and stick it up for auction?

Appreciate the advice!

Movie posters

exitmusic — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 15:05:13 GMT

I've got about a dozen original movie posters (mostly framed and hanging on my walls) and want to start collecting more. Anyone know the best sites for advice on this? I presume checking the auction sites is the way to go, but was also wondering if importing is likely to show better dividends?

I'd have thought that the US was the best place to source them.

I mainly like 60s posters for their style (fave being Get Carter).

prodech — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 14:55:08 GMT

I am looking to sell a St Kilda shirt on Trading Post and was wondering what sort of price I could expect for it? It's got all the team (including Harvey of course!) and is in perfect condition. I'm thinking of auctioning it but want to set a realistic reserve. Thanks for all advice!
