We are particularly known for organising the largest stamp auctions in Finland, but apart from this we sell a lot more today, such as money, jewelry, militaria, and all sorts of fascinating vintage and collectibles. So we auction just about anything!
All the time, we are looking for more material for our auctions to better serve our growing customer base. In particular, we are looking for good stamp collections and individual rare items, money collections and militaria, as well as postcard collections. In addition to this, we are also looking for other collectibles such as rare comic books, silverware, autographs of famous persons, match label collections, watches, jewelry, etc. All kinds of fascinating collectibles are of interest to us and our customers.
