Time has come to downsize my ceramic collection, I am keeping a few of my favourite pieces. I am moving into a smaller property, so very reluctantly the rest have to go. Hopefully buyers will enjoy them as much as I have done.

What's on offer is virtually my entire collection of Lladro, Royal Copenhagen and other top quality modern ceramics, including some quite rare pieces. Also up for sale is my extensive and very expensive Spode dinner service, all just about brand new, never been used just been displayed behind glass.

Also being sold is the majority of my partners extensive diecast toy collection I am not sorry to see them go! He tells me they are worth more than my china, we'll see!

It is a comprehensive collection of model racings cars covering 1930s to 1970s. Both modern and some rare early toys, Most are 1/43 or thereabouts, though other scales are represented. It also includes a number of white metal models, both factory made and kit builds.

I have a plentiful supply of sturdy boxes, poly chips and bubble wrap, so everything will be properly packed to go by mail or courier. I have sold before on ebay so I do know what is required to ship securely.

Anyway, there is too much for me to cope with in one go, so will be offered in small batches over the next few weeks. There will be aprox. 150 lots of china and a similar quality of old toys.

 The small print!!!! but worth reading to avoid any misunderstanding at end of auctions.
