I think you will have to be more specific about what vintage stuff - cars, wine, LPs, furniture, jewelry, designer clothes, glass, silver, books - all have different experts for valuation and identification.


'Worth' - valuations depend upon whether you are buying (insurance value, cost of replacement) or selling (i.e. the sort of valuation done for probate).


if it is antiques - if you are offered money by a dealer, or if he/ she is 'prepared to take it off your hands' - then it is worth something. Antique dealers operate (frequently) at least a 100% mark-up - so anything they buy for a pound they will expect to sell for 2. Knockers (people seeking out antiques from ordinary punters) expect a 1000% (minimum) mark-up.

    • My bike (a ELOPS 120 step over classic from Decathlon) was stolen from outside The Belham this afternoon. I locked it up while I collected my kids, then the street was so busy that I left it there while I walked them home. Did a few other things at home, came back about 5.30pm and it was gone. Sharing just in case anyone sees it or finds it anywhere - it’s a few years old and the chain is a bit rusty/makes a clicking sound so maybe there’s a slight chance someone would dump it! Really annoying and just a reminder to be really careful with bikes. The picture shows the bike model from the Decathlon website.
    • Thanks, I didn't know that.  People are even more stupid than I thought then, if they are willing to wait hours in A&E for an ingrown toenail. I presume they don't get put at the front of the queue. Why isn't the 111 service more widely advertised? That puts you in touch with a doctor, who will advise on the phone or visit, and if necessary  you will be advised to go to A&E or they will arrange an ambulance to take you.
    • It hasn't devolved. It's in exactly the same state it was when it started.
    • A&E isn't allowed to turn people away at the triage stage, even people with hiccups and ingrown toenails... the kinds of ailments a GP might be able to advise against seeking emergency care for. https://www.england.nhs.uk/2025/12/aes-under-siege-from-hiccups-and-ingrowing-toenails/
