John Shaw Antiques Ltd in Parkgate, Rotherham

I have bought a number of unusual quality antique pieces from this shop over the last 30 years and always found them all helpful and friendly. Once this area was the northern centre of the antiques trade where you could find many buildings full amazing treasures not often seen, Shaws was the best of them. Now there are only 2 of these places left in Rotherham and Shaws is still the best. They could probably charge admission just to view some of their amazing collection.

Absolute joke off a company, The son call into my house on a Tuesday morning to have a quick look at what I was selling, then told me it was up to his dad but if I got everything out off the sheds and attic and place it in the sitting room and kitchen neatly so it be easier for his dad to value give me three days to sort. On Friday his dad turned up in a mood with his whiskey nose, walk straight past everything and didn't even look just pointed and said I will have those Chains 79 IN Total one was £550... 167 Watches Rolex Diesel Morgan Elle Pulsar loads more and Diamond engagement rings, Two off which still had receipts value £625. Offer me only £20 I did thing he was only messing I asked about my other stuff got about 400 different items, then he said not Bothered take the money and stop F****g About. I then asked the two off then to leave my house and thank you for calling. The Only Good Thing I Got To Say The Lady That Looks After His Shop is Brilliant Very Pleasant and Friendly Towards People.
