Hear from some of our happy customers

Customer_Valarie_Thumbnail — Meet Valarie

"I sent you some costume jewellery, some pearls, sterling silver and a couple of decorative pens. A very nice young man called me and made me a reasonable offer which I accepted and the whole transaction was quite painless."

Customer_Deana_Thumbnail — Meet Deana

"I parcelled up two vintage cameras, just gathering dust in the loft. It's a really easy service to use, so if you've got some bits and bobs lying around that you want to cash in, then it's worth a look."

Customer_Helen_Thumbnail — Meet Helen

"I came across a Hornby train set that my son no longer uses and a lot of old jewellery. I contacted Vintage Cash Cow, and they collected it the following day. Then, I got a call offering me £98 for the lot!"

Customer_Gill_thumbnail — Meet Gill

"I first heard about them last year and I got £250 for bits of gold, old coins, watches. I’ve done it again this year and I’ve just received another £203. Both amounts have gone to holidays."

Customer_Andrew_Thumbnail — Meet Andrew

"I was very happy with the value which we'd have never realised trying to sell the items ourselves, individually. We were very happy and I'm preparing my second box now."

Customer_Khyuk_Thumbnail — Meet Khyuk

"It’s a really good way to recover some space and generate a bit of cash. The team are very helpful and I would certainly use the service again."

customer-220-a — Exploring Norway!

I had booked my first holiday since losing my husband. I spent my money from VCC on a trip along the Norwegian fjords.

customer-215 (1) — Trip to Diggerland!

I made £125 and the whole family got to go to Diggerland for my digger-mad son’s 4th birthday - he had bucket loads of fun!

cs-5 — A weekend by the coast

I took the grandkids away for a weekend by the coast. It’d been years since we'd done this together and everyone loved it.

customer-047 — A Radley handbag

From the money I received from VCC, I got a brand-new Radley handbag. It was time for a treat.

customer-208 (1) — A fancy lunch

We treated ourselves to a lovely lunch at one of our favourite restaurants. We've enough left for more lunches too!

customer-216 (1)-1 — Charity work in Uganda

I donated the money from my box to a small charity, supporting Uphill Junior School in rural western Uganda.

customer-095-1 — Wedding dress shopping

I went along for a dress fitting with a friend and treated myself to an outfit for her wedding later this year.

customer-169-1 — Snazzy running kit

I treated myself to some new running gear. Thank you.

Frequently asked questions

Our team of experts appraise every item to ensure that you receive a fair price. The value of an item depends on its quality, condition, age, and demand, so it is necessary for us to inspect it in person to provide an accurate valuation. If you are not satisfied with the offer, we will return your items at no cost, giving you nothing to lose by sending them in.
We are a trusted service with over 500,000 customers signed up and more than 10,000 Trustpilot reviews. Your items will be automatically insured for up to £300 through Parcelforce and we can raise your insurance to £1000 - £10,000 for no extra cost.
https://www.vintagecashcow.co.uk/faqs
Absolutely! Our service is designed to be 100% free, whether you send your items to us or request them to be returned after declining our offer.
Sending your box to us is free, easy and safe. We pay for and insure every parcel you send for up to £300 using a tracked Parcelforce service.
There are two ways you can send your box to us:
1) Using your pre-paid postage labels
When you order your free selling guide, we include two pre-paid postage labels and sender details stickers. After packing your box, please stick one postage label and one sender details sticker to the outside, and then take your box to any UK Post Office - click here to find your nearest Post Office branch.
The Post Office will accept the parcel at no cost to you; then, we'll begin appraising your items when your box arrives in our Leeds-based facility.
2) By booking a free home collection
After signing up, you'll receive various communications to arrange your free Parcelforce home collection service. You can also contact us by phone or email to arrange your collection on a day and time that suits you.

In preparation, please attach your sender details sticker to the box, but not your postage label, as your Parcelforce driver will supply this. If you receive any conflicting information, please ignore it.
We're a no obligation service, so you're welcome to decline any offer made should it not meet your expectations. If you decline our offer, we will return your whole parcel of items at no cost to yourself.
Unfortunately, we do not accept items that are not specified on our site. If you believe you have an item that would be of interest to our experts, you can call our customer service team who will be happy to assist you.

Please phone our customer service team on: 0800 246 1111 or send us an email at hello@vintagecashcow.co.uk
A vintage advisor will call you with an offer once we've received and valued your items. You’ll get an explanation of the offer and an opportunity to ask any questions. If we are unable to reach you, we send an email and SMS message requesting you to contact us.
Maybe. Our service is designed to help you declutter in bulk, so we would prefer you to send 10 items or more. However, if you believe your item is really special, please get in touch to see if it is suitable.

If you would like some guidance on whether or not your items are suitable for us, please contact us on 0800 246 1111 or send us an email at hello@vintagecashcow.co.uk
Yes, you can choose from a range of ways to speak to us:
Call us on 0800 246 1111

Message us on Facebook
Email us at hello@vintagecashcow.co.uk
Of course! Our home collection service is free for all of our customers. If you'd like to book your slot, please call us on 0800 246 1111.
We hope this never happens but if your items are damaged, we will handle any claim on your behalf. Your parcel is insured for up to £300 as standard, through Parcelforce. However, if you believe your items are worth more, we can raise your insurance to £1,000 or £10,000.
No, unfortunately, this isn’t possible. The value of an item is very dependent on quality, condition, age and demand so we must see it in person to be able to give it a fair valuation. If you are not satisfied with your offer, we will return your items free of charge so you have nothing to lose by sending them in.

If you would like some guidance on whether or not your items are suitable for us, please contact us on 0800 246 1111 or send us an email at hello@vintagecashcow.co.uk
