Michael Hogben

The Diamond Geezer

Here's a short extract from Michael Hogben's A-Z of Antiques and Auctions

Display well to sell well

If your stand looks attractive and is neatly displayed it will guarantee interest from the buyers at the fair. If you are specialising in one field then the specialists will come straight to you. This is when you need to have your pricing right, and you can only price right if you buy right. Do not be tempted to buy something for £80 with 15% buyer's premium when the highest price you could achieve for the item is £120 on your stall. I think also that on any antiques stall you should have something which stands out so as to attract the all important buyers, whether it's a large object, brightly coloured or of a unique shape.

Customer Testimonials

Not only was the Tangle Teezer I purchased cheaper than anywhere else, delivery was free too!
I ordered the item yesterday and it arrived today. My order was acknowledged by email within minutes of placing it.
I would definitely use this company again. Kind Regards, Julia B, Macclesfield

1st class service, arrived the day after ordering, was a bit sceptical till I tried Tangle Teezer and it does exactly what it says perfectly. Regards Harold, Doncaster

I bought my Tangle Teezer for my very curly hair. The service I received was excellant. The Tangle Teezer works well on my wet hair to get the conditioner through, but has also been used by my 9 year old son to get a 'cool look' for his hair! Thanks to Modern Gent for an all-round great service. Alison Eames, Bromley
