Bellmans is developing a dedicated focus on retro video games and collectables in response to growing interest from collectors and consignors. This emerging area reflects the increasing recognition of gaming and popular culture as established collecting fields within the wider auction market.
Our specialists are currently advising on valuations across this category, with the intention of offering material within forthcoming auctions during the year. As with all developing departments, items will be assessed individually and placed appropriately once sufficient material is available.
Retro video games and collectables encompass a broad and evolving range of material. Rather than defining the category too narrowly, Bellmans approaches each item on its own merits, considering condition, rarity, provenance and current demand.
As interest in this field continues to mature, we are working with consignors to build well-balanced sales that reflect the diversity of the market while maintaining the standards expected of an established auction house.
Our specialists are available to provide preliminary advice and valuations for items within this category. Whether you are considering the sale of a single item or a wider collection, we are happy to discuss suitability for future auctions and advise on timing and placement.
If you have items you believe may be of interest, or would like further guidance as this category develops, please contact our London or Sussex office to arrange a complimentary valuation or informal discussion.
