Dealers in
Antique Tools, Technology & Scientific Related Antiques, Americana, &
Antique Advertising
We
can help you buy and sell individual antiques or collections of antiques & vintage
collectibles
We are full time knowledgeable and experienced antique
dealers and actively and
seriously deal in a wide range of antiques and vintage collectibles.
Our primary focus is on
Mechanical and Patented Antiques, Scientific-related Antiques,
Tool and
Technology-related Antiques, and what is known as Americana, General
or Country Store Antiques and Antique Advertising.
We like to call all of this Americana with a purpose.
We use to drive 70-100,000 miles a year and spent 6-8 months on the road buying, selling and dealing in
antiques. Times have changed and so has the way we conduct our
business.
Today we primarily deal in quality antiques
utilizing the internet and our two antique-related websites.
We
own and operate this informational website
www.Atiqubuyer.com and we conduct most of our Antique Sales from
our sister website
www.Patented-Antiques.com.
Please visit that page to
see how we conduct our antique consignment sales program.
It is one of the largest and best known single owner i
nternet antique sales websites
there is. For more info about this, our search engine rankings and
traffic count please see the FAQ
page as well as the other informational pages we have on both
sites.
Consignment Antique Sales
The way we do business has changed from
simply trying to
buy your antiques for the lowest possible price, and then reselling them
at a profit for us, to helping you, the owner, collector, spouse, heir, or other
sellers of
antiques, sell antiques utilizing the internet, our antique
websites, and our expertise and knowledge to the mutual benefit of
both parties.
It is a Win-Win for both parties!
We are currently selling antiques
from several estates and
several different collections of antiques on our sales website
www.Patented-Antiques.com
for several different consignors.

Types of Antiques
Sought & Sold
We primarily buy, sell, and deal in patented, mechanical, and vintage technology
related
antiques
and collectibles spanning the era from the mid-1800's and the beginnings
of the Industrial Revolution to just after the turn-of-the 20th Century.
General or country store antiques as well as related advertising are
sought as well. We call all of this Americana
with a purpose.
We are actively seeking antique sewing machines
(Pre-1870),
American patent
models
and vintage salesman samples, antique surveying instruments, antique
woodworking tools, and many other types of patented and / or mechanical antiques,
related advertising, country store antiques, and what is
commonly referred to as
Americana from this era.
This would include antique pressing irons or sadirons, early patented
eggbeaters, mechanical apple parers, 2 wheel coffee mills, cast iron
coffee grinders, and other
kitchen and general store related antiques.
We sell antique and vintage tools, early office antiques, antique surveying instruments and related antique
scientific equipment,
as well as many other occupational and technological antiques
from the home, workshop, store, farm, or office.
The antiques we seek
include early electric fans and antique
electric motors, antique typewriters, early telephones and telegraph devices, antique toys, vintage sporting goods, and much more.
We
are also looking for antique figural cast iron
pieces, antique lawn sprinklers, early corkscrews, unusual calculating devices
and slide rules,
plus
related ephemera, catalogs and advertising.
Unlike the current crop of antique
shows, and what is offered in "antique shops" where it seems 20 years
is now deemed to be an antique, we still
hold to the definition of an antique as
being something close to 100 years old or more. Newer things might
be collectible, but things from 1988 typically do not fit into our sales
categories.
Please
review the categories of antiques on the Wanted to
Buy page to get a general sense of the types antiques we
typically deal in.
For an overview and specific information on the different
categories of antiques, vintage technology, scientific related antiques, antique
advertising and collectibles we are interested in CLICK any of the
headings in the left column.
