Consignment & Appraisal of Antique Militaria
The War Front is proud to offer its metropolitan Portland OR & Seattle WA area customers consignment, sale & appraisal services of militaria and WWI, WWII, Vietnam and other military conflict memorabilia and collectibles. Stumbled upon an old trunk in the attic? We can do the research and give you a fair market estimate and consign your items to place them with a collector or enthusiast who will cherish them for the years to come.
​
Appraisals can be performed in person ONLY by appointment. You do not have to consign the item with us but if you wish to do so, the appraisal fee is then waived. In return you are insured that:
​
- Your item will be stored with us properly and safely.
- No hassling with Craigslist, frustrating shipping experiences or Ebay fees for you to worry about.
- No suspensions of social media accounts or Ebay confiscating your item during shipping and reselling it through their own auction house! (it happens... a LOT)
- Take advantage of over 40 years combined of knowledge in militaria.
- Benefit from our huge network of collectors and buyers we've built over the years.
- You set your own final value. We will make a recommendation, you make the final decision.
- No piles of uniforms or dirty dusty shelves! Our store is a clean establishment and we will treat your heirloom with the dignity it deserves.
- We find a great home for your family heirloom or the collections that mattered to your loved one and pass it on to the RIGHT person.
