Hi everyone, I am getting back into the hobby after 30 years away. I collect Liverpool homes and aways, cup finals and England homes but stopped in about 1990 as wine, women and song got in the way. When I left, Sports Programmes, Dick Rattray and Peter Holtom's catalogues were among the go-to places.
My question is how do people add to their collections these day? I see online dealers (some old familiar names still around) but the world of auctions and ebay are new to me. The whole things seems more like the wild west now than a self-regulating community. Any help on what to do and, most importantly, what to avoid would be appreciated.

You've started in the right place Jonesy!Tthere are some amazingly friendly and knowledgeable people on here who can offer help and advice should it be needed. No matter what you collect or want, someone on here nearly always points you in the right direction. It's also a great buying and selling platform and if you are looking for something in particular it's always worth a post on this forum. Welcome and enjoy the ride! Cheers, Mark Thumbs Up

I have been selling programmes for a number of years and now I am reducing the amount of stock I carry. I have a few hundred Liverpool programmes 70s to 90s mainly with some 60s and some into this century. If you are after a bulk collection 10-200 then I can post these to you. Message me if interested.
