Meccano  Collectors' Corner

This page has been included to allow Meccano enthusiasts and collectors to buy, sell and swap Meccano items featured on this web site.  I have now extended this to cover any Meccano item from any period, but the Light Red/Green period has been given a section to itself.  Collectors can advertise their sales and wants on this page free of charge.  This applies to dealers as well as private individuals.  So, if you have any Meccano to sell, or are looking for parts, outfits, literature, etc. Click Here to place your advert.

Adverts will appear until you request them to be removed, or until we all get fed up with looking at them!  If you sell an item, or no longer need it, please contact me, so that your advert can be removed, or ammended.  I reserve the right to edit adverts for space, etc.  The usual disclaimers apply: This is only an advertising facility, and collectors are responsible for their own transactions with other collectors.  Buyers should satisfy themselves as to the condition (and existence) of any item before purchase, etc. etc.

If possible, attach a single photograph of your item for sale.  A photograph will help you to sell it.
If you send me more than one photo, I will decide which one to use.
