Do you have quality antique, vintage, retro or modern fishing tackle to sell?

 

We are keen purchasers of high-quality antique, vintage or modern tackle items. We buy whole collections or single items and pay instantly by cash or bank transfer from £50 to £50,000 and more.

Brands such as Hardy, Sage, Allcocks, Orvis, Abu, Farlows, B James, Sharpes, Thomas & Thomas, Abel, Tibor, Loop and many more are of interest to us.
Our chief tackle buyer is Dave Townsend, based in Weston-Super-Mare, Somerset. We frequently travel around the country and indeed globally to buy stock. We can often visit within 24 hours. Our main office is in Weston-Super-Mare but we also have buyers in Sussex/Surrey and further afield.

We can also buy items remotely, by post or video call. Please contact us first before sending anything.

Please complete the form below as much as you can and preferably upload clear photos of the items you wish to sell, and if you have larger collections, a list of items is useful also. The more information provided the easier it is to provide an accurate purchase indication.

Please use the form below to tell us about tackle you wish to sell and we will get back to you with our best offer or advice on the best way forward. The recommended way to send any images is to upload them using the form below or via whats-app to our business mobile which is 07535 590617. Alternatively, you can send images via email to davetownsend@thomasturner.com, but please be aware that large image sizes may mean the email doesn’t reach us. For a large number of high resolution images we recommend using https://wetransfer.com

If you prefer you can print out the form and complete this by hand and email or post to us at Thomas Turner, The Willow, Stable View Business Park, Weston Super Mare, Somerset, BS24 6RD. Or there is always the option to ring Dave direct.

(Please note that when sending goods to us it is the seller’s responsibility to ensure the item arrives safely with us and we reserve the right to reduce the amount paid in the unlikely event items arrive damaged or in poor condition.)

Whilst in most cases we answer messages the same day, please allow up to 48 hours for us to get back to you.
