ABOUT 
                US 
              David Allen 
                has been at the forefront of the football programme business since 
                the mid 1980s. In this time he has built up the Country's biggest 
                and most successful dealership www.footballprogrammes.com 
              In his 30 
                year career, David has witnessed many changes within the business 
                and risen to the challenge of harnessing each of them to the benefit 
                of programme collectors and those wishing to sell their collections. 
                
              The most recent, 
                and probably biggest ever has been the Internet. The need for 
                mail order printed catalogues to sell programmes and adverts in 
                local papers and magazines to buy them has greatly diminished 
                as both sectors have moved online. This website has been developed 
                to assist those with programmes to sell to explore their options 
                and use our services to dispose of them for the highest prices 
                possible. 
              We can offer 
                you two different ways to attain the best price possible for your 
                collection of old football programmes and / or sporting memorabilia. 
                
              Top cash prices 
                paid or alternatively use our unique auction service which GUARANTEES 
                you the highest prices possible with the added protection of a 
                50% cash deposit paid before any of your memorabilia leaves your 
                possession. 
              Here's 
                how it works..... 
              Having had 
                a career of 30 years in the football programme business I have 
                built up the UK's largest dealership www.footballprogrammes.com 
                We always require pre 1955 and other quality programmes for our 
                thousands of registered customers. We will travel to any part 
                of the UK to buy your collection. Immediate cash paid or bank 
                transfer on the spot. 
              Alternatively 
                if you prefer your collection to be auctioned I offer a unique 
                unrivalled auction service that not only guarantees you the best 
                price but also: 
              1, Give you 
                an immediate 50% cash deposit of the value of your collection. 
                For example if your collection is valued at £10,000 we will give 
                you £5,000 immediately with the balance payable at the conclusion 
                of the auction. No other auction house offers this service. The 
                reason we are able to give you a deposit is explained in paragraph 
                3 below. 
              2, We will 
                place your collection with the auction house best suited to attain 
                the highest price for you. There are many different auction houses 
                each with their own individual strengths and weaknesses. We have 
                a good professional working relationship with all of them. Using 
                our experience we will place your particular collection with the 
                auction house best suited to your collection and particular needs 
                and attain the lowest commission rate possible. 
              3, NO returns. 
                We give a guarantee that ALL your collection will sell so there 
                is nothing returned to you as unsold. Again, using our experience 
                we will 'lot' your programmes in a way that will be attractive 
                to both collectors and dealers. In the unlikely event of there 
                being no bids for any of your lots our parent company. www.footballprogrammes.com 
                will buy them to keep our pledge of selling everything. Again, 
                no other auction house can offer this as they don't have a powerful 
                retail sector underpinning them.
