Does Royal Doulton buy back dinner services or collectables?
No, we do not offer a buy back service. However, antique dealers or china matching organisations may be able to help you to sell items. Can Royal Doulton provide a valuation for discontinued pieces?

We recommend that anyone wishing to obtain a valuation on discontinued pieces should contact a specialist dealer or one of the leading auction houses.
