News, Views Etc . . . Vectis Action Tomorrow

I missed the Doll & Bear sale yesterday; problems with Girly-girl, but it seems to be asthma, not the dreaded 'C', so sigh of relief for us, fortnight of drops and a lung-draining for her; fussa-russa! I'll find her a nice box to sit in!

Tomorrow's sale is a majority single-collector collection of Matchbox, but some nice pieces including lots of military lots;

Lot 17

The Wayne Laughman Matchbox Collection - Part 1
Thursday 10th September 2020 - Sale Starts 10:00am

"Part 1 of The Wayne Laughman Matchbox Collection is to be held on the 10th of September; the sale includes Matchbox Regular Wheels, Superfast and Matchbox of Yesteryear. There are a number of interesting variations, including some 1980s production anomalies, such as an 8c De Tomaso Pantera, narrow profile, with rare factory 5-arch wheel error. Plus, group variations, including colour, wheels and interiors, and tampo printing variations, as seen in Lot 330. There are a number of interesting lots in this sale and a large selection of lots which would interest newcomers to the collecting market."

There is also more instructional bumph than usual, mostly Covid-19 related!

COVID - 19 RESTRICTIONS

Please note there is still NO viewing, or attendance in person at these Auctions.

SHIPPING

Please be aware there is still a slight delay with our current despatch times.
Our packing team have been working hard to catch up with the 5 weeks closure we experienced in March/April.
When we re-opened in April we did so with a skeleton staff, we are now back to full capacity and they have been working tirelessly to ensure your parcels are packed as quickly and professionally as possible; the team are now currently packing and despatching August Sales.

We thank you for your understanding and patience in these unprecedented times.

COLLECTION

If you wish to collect items, we would ask customers to first call and pay for their purchases. Ask for a collection appointment date and time. This will allow the packing team to prepare your items and have them ready for you, reducing waiting times.

PLEASE ENSURE YOU WEAR A MASK WHEN COLLECTING LOTS (UNLESS EXEMPT)

Thank you for your understanding.

And Vectis are contactable as always here;
