We Buy Antiques! We also buy scrap gold & silver, costume and estate jewelry.

We buy & sometimes trade for antiques and quality vintage collectibles. See list below for what we buy. We also handle consignments. Please inquire.

We do not offer a Free Online Appraisal or Valuation service for antiques we have not seen in person or are not in front of us.

Please read the FAQ section below for more info on this.

If you have something for sale that you think we would be interested in buying email us at francesca@ellisantique.com, call us at 856.854.6346, or fill out and mail us the form below, with all pertinent details about your antiques, and we will happily discuss it with you.

We are now actively seeking modern collectibles, such as Lladros, Swarovski, and Hummels.

Do you buy antiques, jewelry, gold, silver and platinum?
Yes, we are constantly adding to our massive inventory. We buy and take consignments for antiques that are offered to us from private individuals, antique collectors, antique dealers, lawyers for estates, and a number of other sources. If you have antiques or vintage collectibles to sell that would be of interest to us, please read our Seller’s FAQ below first before contacting us by email, phone or fill out the simple and convenient form found here.

Do you sell antiques, gold, silver and platinum jewelry?
Yes! You can shop four different ways with Ellis Antiques. We have a retail store located in historic Collingswood, NJ, are established eBay powersellers, an online store, and occasionally run Estate Sales. Additionally, we wholesale to the industry.

Do you do Appraisals / Give Free Online Valuations? OR I do not want an appraisal, I just need help or more information. Can you help?
Regrettably, we cannot offer this free service due to time constraints. If the item is not for sale and you are not interested in our professional appraisal service, please do not contact us. We receive so many requests and it would be impossible (as well as unfair to us) to answer them.

I want to sell my antique but do not know what it is worth. What do I do?
It is strongly advised that you present a reasonable idea of what you want for an item. Please take into account that we purchase wholesale and it is impossible for us to pay full retail price. If you don’t have a suggested price in mind to negotiate, please see the answer below.

I just saw my grandma’s _______ on the Antiques Roadshow and it was appraised at $5000. Are you interested?
An antiques value is contingent upon many factors. To avoid disappointment, be sure of what you have first before projecting an unrealistic value to a piece.

Will you make me an offer for my antique, jewelry, gold, silver or platinum?
Yes, we can make offers on antiques we are interested in purchasing. However, we cannot make offers on antiques that we have not seen in person. If you do email us photos and some information on your piece, if we are interested, we can set up an appointment to discuss the matter further.

If you don’t know what you want for something, we can make you a reasonable offer. Thankfully for you, we are extremely fair and enjoy a favorable reputation. Even those who shop around for a price typically end up selling to us and most always return in the future. Additionally, customers recommend us to friends and family (Referrals are greatly appreciated!).

How much do you pay for antiques, gold, silver, platinum & jewelry?
This really depends on the individual piece, but in general, this is determed by condition, rarity, and desirability of the given piece. Again, we buy wholesale and pay a percentage of the retail ticket. Antique values are volatile, and are subject to market trends and economic pressure. Example: what's hot and what's not-- Chinese antique furniture in the 1980's vs. now, Mid-Century Modern furniture today vs.the 1980's.
