🔨 FOUND SOMETHING AND NOT SURE WHAT YOU’VE GOT?
Before you throw it away, donate it, stick it in the loft for another ten years or assume “it’s probably worth nothing”… show us.
At GSM Auctions in Poole, we’re regularly sent photographs of everything from jewellery and old tools to toys, gaming, collectables, china, cameras, records and boxes that haven’t been opened in years.
Some will be ordinary.
Some will be perfect for auction.
And every now and again, something turns up that makes us look twice.
Want us to give you a quicker, more useful reply?
Send us:
📸 One photo showing the whole item
🔎 Close-ups of names, labels, signatures, stamps or hallmarks
👀 A clear photo of any damage or missing pieces
📏 Its approximate size
📍 Your general location
📦 Whether it's one item or part of a larger collection
That’s it.
No professional photography.
No carefully written description.
No need to know exactly what it is.
Clear photos + honest information = a much more useful conversation.
And please don't clean, polish or “improve” an old item before asking us — sometimes those signs of age are exactly what buyers want to see.
Got something tucked away that you've always wondered about?
Send us a picture.
Even better, send us the thing in your house, garage, shed or loft that has caused the most arguments:
“Keep it.”
or
“Get rid of it.”
We'd love to see what you've got.
