Research an Antique Dealer in Colchester First

Of course, everything starts with good research and finding an antique dealer in Colchester does not make any exception. In addition, when selling to an antique dealer in Colchester, don’t expect them to do all the hard work for you and tell you all the in-depth information about the items you are selling and their value.

An antique dealer in Colchester most probably won’t be willing to give you an evaluation for free, and rightly so.

Selling to an Antique Dealer in Colchester – Expect a Quarter or a Half off the Retail Price

When selling items to an antique dealer in Colchester it is very important to have a realistic idea of the money you will be able to get. After you do the important price-research and before you visit the antique dealer in Colchester, have a good idea of what price you can get and be prepared to be offered a price usually a quarter to fifty percent off the original or retail price of the items. Don’t be surprised, this is usually how every antique dealer in Colchester will work. Every antique dealer in Colchester has overhead expenses, even when selling online. With an antique dealer in Colchester, you can benefit from quick cash and this is the biggest advantage of this kind of deal.
