Making an offer

If you choose to Make an Offer please justify your offer and accompany it with reasoning. Sometimes it happens that we miss something or make a mistake when listing an item. (Eg. A part is not original and we have not noted this in the ad). If you think this is this case then please feel free let us know why you think an item is priced incorrectly. It should otherwise be assumed that we have done our research and that the value is reflected in our pricing. Kindly refrain from making an offer if it is simply a low-ball.

Part-exchange

We will consider high-end gear in part-exchange. Unfortunately we do have to try and turn a profit and likely won’t be able to offer you what you’d get for selling your gear privately, but part-exchange can usually open up possibilities otherwise unavailable to buyers on a budget.

Postage / Shipping / Import duty / Collection

UK postage is always included. International postage is always possible. We ship our gear well-protected and insured to the value of sale. We even go as far as to get custom, double-walled cardboard boxes, made-to-measure for larger, high value items. You can be sure that your item will arrive safely. Import duties etc. will be buyers' responsibility. Local pickup is welcome and especially encourage for high-end and/or fragile items.

In-person delivery

For high-end items of value we are sometimes able to deliver in-person. This can be particularly useful for overseas buyers. This service is often used by our customers in France and Germany. Contact us for details.

Gear buy-back

We only buy items that we love and it will likely pain us to let anything from the collection go. Should you decide at some point down the road to sell any gear that we sold to you, we will always consider buying it back (within reason).
