COME BACK OFTEN FOR INFO ON UPCOMING SHOWS
Do you still have your original Barbie doll that has been collecting dust since you bought it all those years ago? Guess what? If that doll is a No. 1 Barbie from 1959 and is mint in its original box, it could fetch up to $3,000.00. That's right--$3,000.00!
But where can you sell your old toys?
The FX Vintage Toy Roadshow is a group of experts who want to purchase your old toys. We invite you to dig through old boxes in your garage or clean out your basement, and bring in any toys you happen to find that may be of interest to a collector.
The FX Vintage Toy Roadshow is looking for your antique and collectible toys and will pay a fair market price for them!
Most TV roadshows only appraise antiques and collectibles--they do not offer to purchase them. NOT SO WITH THE FX VINTAGE TOY ROADSHOW! Because we have instant access to more than 23,000 collectors all over the world, we can offer you the best price for your old toy right on the spot! If a collector wants what you have, chances are you’ll get a pretty penny for your old toys.
Your old toys could be worth thousands!
THE ROADSHOW ALSO BUYS ENTIRE COLLECTIONS!
If you have a large collection of vintage toys, please call us to make arrangements for a private appraisal and purchase.
So if you have kept your childhood treasures, then Lady Luck may be smiling your way. Although a toy does not need to be in mint condition, the value certainly increases if it's in great shape or with its original box.
A mere house cleaning can bring hundreds of dollars to someone with the right item!
ADMISSION to any FX VINTAGE TOY ROADSHOW is always FREE and so are APPRAISALS, so find those old toys and dolls that have been hiding in your closet or attic for all these years and bring them to the FX VINTAGE TOY ROADSHOW ready to be amazed!
If you can’t make a show in your area please call, write or email us with your list of toys.
