some fakes are easier to tell than others

 How to post your

 items to us

 

We can only provide a 3 star authentication if you send us the actual item to examine.

 

You must use a trackable and insured delivery method to get your item to us. Our favoured method is the Royal Mail Next Day Delivery service. The price is reasonable and you can purchase additional insurance if your item is very valuable.

 

We will return your item via this method.

 

We will always treat your item with the utmost care. We will examine it in a clean environment and wear gloves whist handling it but we will not be held responsible in the highly unlikely event that your item is damaged.

 

Package your item carefully and sensibly. Remember to guard against moisture damage and knocks during transit.
