Book Description
Editorial Reviews
About the Author
Charles Fellows has been an antique "picker", collector and dealer for over 25 years and has been traveling to England on buying trips for six years. The first trip was a fruitless, near-disaster but it created the desire to write a book that would make it easier for those who followed. 99% of the information in this new book was learned by the author by being there and doing it--over 300 antiques and collectibles came back with the author on his last trip, all bought at wholesale, profit-producing prices. You can do the same.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Antique Bargain Hunting in London, England (Paperback)
this book was a disappointment to me. it was very un-specific, and did not really rate places in a way that makes it possible to decide where to go. this book might be useful to a first - time, short term visitor. I was hoping for a much more detailed work that would specify particular types of antiques (e.g. ceramics, furniture), and, even better, special periods or makers (e.g., moorcroft, doulton, arts& crafts). this book really didn't tell me any more than my eyewitness guide
