I am a collector based in Northamptonshire, England. Please visit my web site corgi.toys or corgi-toys.net for contact details and more background information, as well as access to my on-line Catalogue of these models.
Collect the originals!
Welcome to my on-line store where you can see the models that I have in stock. As a child in the 1960s Corgi Toys were my favourites and a few years ago I decided to rebuild my collection. When I looked around I couldn't find any very accurate listings anywhere and so decided to build my own on-line catalogue which you can view at Corgi-Toys.Net. I buy an example of each model and of each variation that was likely to be available to us at the time at out local toy shop. After documenting these I sell them and use the proceeds to buy the next ones, or better examples of existing items.
I also write a regular newsletter / blog on Corgi Toys and various articles on specialist issues as well as managing collections for individuals, providing valuations and advice on models produced from the start in 1956 through to the mid 1970s when things began to go wrong for the business. I do not deal with the 1:36 scale models or any made in China (other than one or two exceptions such as the excellent Corgi Model Club isues).
If there is a particular model you are looking for and it's not here, do get in touch and I will try to find it for you.
A large number of near mint models have been added to my stock from a collector in Michigan USA. While these are based in the States I have to charge £30 to cover shipping to the UK, from where I will send them to UK customers with Royal Mail. Customers in the US will, of course, have a low local rate for shipping and those of you in other places can contact me to get a quote for delivery.
I hope in due course to have some better photos of the models but in the meantime let me know if you have any specific queries and I may be able to reserve some models on request and small deposit.
