← What we buy

We buy vintage boxed toys

We buy vintage toys in their original boxes across South, West and Mid Wales, along with unboxed toys that have been looked after.

The box can be worth as much as the toy, so please keep it, along with any inserts, instructions and paperwork. We look at toys from the early twentieth century to the 1980s, from tinplate and train sets to action figures.

Photograph each toy with its box, then the box from every side and any wear on the corners.
