Caring for toys and games


Books/Paper | Vinyl records | Plates, pottery & porcelain | Dolls & Figurines
Toys & Games | Jewellery | Postage stamps | Wooden furniture

Save playing pieces and instructions as they will add to the resale value.

Keep games away from sunlight as it will fade the boxes.

Store games and jigsaw puzzles flat so that pieces don't fall out during storage. If the game has been opened, put the pieces into polypropylene bags to keep them safely together.

Since games are generally popular and inexpensive, you may as well buy more than one if you plan on playing with it. Mint condition games sell well.

Do not give old metal toys a lick of paint as this could decrease their value.

Remove batteries from stored toys, as the batteries may leak and ruin them.

Try to avoid over winding toys, or pulling the strings of talking toys as overuse may break them.
