Welcome to Sportingold Auctions....

Sportingold are specialist Football memorabilia and Sports memorabilia auctioneers.  We hold up to eight quality football memorabilia and sporting memorabilia auctions per year, selling football programmes, tickets, autographed shirts etc.   

Because we specialise in Football memorabilia we believe we have a depth of knowledge and experience unrivalled in the business.  Whilst we specialise in Football Memorabilia, we also handle memorabilia from a wide range of other sports, including rugby, Wisden Cricketers' Almanacks , cricket, boxing, motor racing etc.

We have grown to be one of the most successful Football Memorabilia and Sports Memorabilia auctioneers in the UK.  We take great pride in the efficiency of our auctions, purchased lots can generally be paid for and collected within minutes of the hammer falling.  We also pride ourselves on the excellent sale prices we achieve for vendors. 

You can bid by person at the sale, by telephone, by leaving a commission bid or on-line via www.the-saleroom.com.  If you want a particular lot you may be advised to book a telephone bid.

We also provide a Valuation Service for all sorts of sports memorabilia - contact us on 01494 565921 for more information.
