Liquidating Your Hallmark Collection |
Much like the economy, interest rates and the stock market; collectibles prices are really down right now, including Hallmark ornaments and collectibles. We do not bid using a percentage of book values, as book values are far above where the actual secondary market is. We use our knowledge of what the ornaments are really selling for, less allowances for our overhead and a profit. We do buy collections, but must really watch what we pay. Realizing this, if you would like to send us your list we will be happy to take a look.
Please send your list including quantities and box conditions for each item. You will also need to include your lowest asking price for each item as well as your lowest price for the collection as a whole.
We do assume that your list shows your lowest prices, so we normally do not make a counter offer. You can send your list for consideration to purchasing@hookedonhallmark.com , fax to (913) 859-0237, or mail to Hooked on Ornaments, 11888 W 91st, Overland Park, KS 66214.
Once your list is received if there are items that we are currently buying at agreeable pricing you will be contacted within 1-2 weeks. We apologize but due to the large number of lists currently being received we are unable to reply to every submission.
