Trade-in Testimonials

Martin Wright - 23 April 2023

Hattons valuation for my old railway models was more than others I contacted so decided to to take their offer. I opted to deliver the items in person. This was very simple and quick to do. A week later I received the full valuation amount direct into my bank account. I would recommend Hattons to anyone looking to sell unwanted railway models.

This is the third time I have used the Hatton’s ‘model money ‘ service. I find it a very efficient, quick and easy way to do deals, and hope other modellers benefit from items I know longer wish to use.
