A WARM WELCOME

                Welcome to our first auction sale.  If you were a regular at Bristol Stamp Auction in Keynsham then there is a chance that we are known to you, to those whom we are unknown we will give a brief history of how we have become auctioneers.

                Our team consists of myself, my wife Jane and her sister Marion who are supported by, in all things technological by Darren (steward from Bristol Stamp Auctions), and we feel the jewel in our crown has to be one of the best auctioneers in the business - having spent 24 years at Bristol Stamp Auctions, Barbara O'Keef. 

                I myself have been trading full time with Jane and Marion for the past 7 years running Max 30 Ltd, Stamps United Ltd and trading on eBay as Shamva Stamps Ltd.  I am also the current Chairman of the ADPS stamp dealers society.

                We made the decision to start this stamp auction 18 months ago and were planning to have our first sale in 2009 but when I heard that Bristol Stamp Auction was closing, we decided to act sooner. We hope with your help and support, to create a vibrant stamp trading community in the South West.

                And finally we would also like to thank all of the vendors who contributed to this sale, and may we offer a thank you to all those who have offered help and advice in the preparation of this our first auction sale.

                Tony Cavill
