About Collectibles Corner

Back to Home

Collectibles Corner was started in 2001 by Peter Geoffroy offering small collectibles in mail bid and private treaty sales.

For the previous ten years Peter had worked with Whyte's who specialised in public auctions of small collectibles.

Whyte's now deal solely in fine art and Collectibles Corner was founded to continue offering small collectibles to collectors.

The aim has been to offer hard-to-find and unusual items, individually or in small groups, in mail bid sales (postal auctions) with no buyer's commission.

Each sale has about 500 lots, typically estimated at €30 - €100.
