Selling my N Gauge locos
Decided to sell my N Gauge locos and made an enquiry. Swift response with very reasonable offer. They arranged transport from my location and after assessing, contacted me and the deal was done. A superb service and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone. In fact I already have!
Faultless
Item was very well packaged, arrived next day as promised and was the best price I could find. Faultless.
Great service from this company
Great service from this company. I dealt with Jake who was friendly polite and informative. I had some locomotives to sell, I was offered a good price which I accepted. Quick efficient turnaround from me sending the locomotives to the money in the bank. I highly recommend this company.
Greedy company with low ball offers
Dissapointed in their less than fair offer to purchase my unused as new OO gauge locos. After reading their literature bigging up about them offering fair prices etc, I sent them details of around 6 locos (inc a pristine unused Accurascale Manor Class Dcc with sound) all of which were unused in like new condition and in undamaged original packaging. I was shocked to see they offered me less for all of them than the price they are asking for a single used Accurascale Manor class currently advertised on their website, therefore, in effect they were getting pure profit on the other 5 locos, which is just plain greedy. . Glad I was not desperate to sell them...

Great communication, great company
Great communication, very helpful and very prompt and very fair payment. I was selling my late Father's collection. They even arranged Parcelforce pickup from my house - amazing!

Moving home and downsizing means the OO gauge model railway has had to go. Rails of Sheffield have been superb. Took everything and paid a very fair price. They arranged a Parcel Force pick-up. Payment has come through very promptly. An excellent service in every way. Will soon be asking advice about getting going in N Gauge.

Selling a train collection
I recently sold my late husbands train collection to them. I found the service they provided was first class, and I would recommend them to anyone.
Selling to Rails of Sheffield - Recommended
A very professional company with a "can-do" attitude. I wished to sell a large railway collection, they immediately said "no problem we can give you a price". There was constant communication by email. They gave a very fair price based on a loco list (plus some general info) and stood by it after collecting the collection and scrutinising it. The money was in the bank within hours. No hassle! Very pleased.
Sold some old locos for cash easily
Sold some old locos to Rails… posted on Wednesday, cash in bank on Monday.
Very easy to deal with, communicated quickly and clearly by email.
Would use again.
Great experience with Rails of Sheffield
My dad has a large collection of trains that we are slowly selling and Rails of Sheffield could not be more helpful. They offered a fair price and made the whole process incredibly easy. We packaged them and sent them to the shop in Sheffield and received funds for selling the trains within a few days. Great service and look forward to helping my dad sell more of his unused collection!
Great Service
Really helpful team and very efficient from offering a good price for the model railway items to arranging collection and paying exactly what they stated. No hesitation in using them again and recommending Rails of Sheffield.
Really easy to use site
This was a really easy to use site. I was able to find and identify nearly all of my Dad's 40 year old railway collection. Jake at the company was really helpful, gave me a very fair price and I'm pleased that these items may well be giving other people pleasure, rather than sitting in a cupboard somewhere.
Selling my railwayania to a reputable company
When I was thinning out my model railway items, mostly locos, I had Rails of Sheffield on my mind as they are the best and foremost dealers in second hand railwayania! Could I get a good deal from them? Yes I did and couldn't believe their offer..... Absolutely amazing! Never has my flabber been so gasted! These lads are superb to deal with and their collection service was within a couple of days and free of charge too! Brilliant!!!! A very well organised team of people!!!!
Rails of Sheffield
I had a large collection of American railroad items to trade in and the process was really slick and straight forward and a fair price was offered, saving me the trouble of listing on fleebay and then having to individually box and post each item. I would highly recommend Rails of Sheffield.

A high quality friendly professional service.
I recently communicated with Rails to sell my life long collection of model railways. I provided them with a list and they responded immediately confirming that they would be interested in purchasing. I dealt with Ben who quickly provided an estimate of possible worth. I was happy to proceed with this and the models all boxed up and ready to ship. Rails collected the collection the following week. I was very surprised to get confirmation of what they would pay for it within two days, which I accepted. This was then paid directly into my bank account. Throughout the whole time they were very helpful and professional and friendly. I would recommend their high quality service to anyone thinking of selling their collection.

I contacted rails of Sheffield regarding some model railway items. They were helpful, friendly and the service was very efficient. I would recommend them.
A excellent experience if you want to sell your model railway collection.
If you have unwanted model railway, items, slot cars and model die cast vehicles to sell, then I can highly recommend contacting Rails of Sheffield they have a simple online form to complete. Someone will then contact you with a price. If you accept the offer then they will arrange a convenient date for the items to be collected by courier or you can drop off your items at the shop. Once received they quickly contact you to confirm the offer and if you agree will then make payment. I have used Rails at least 5 times now and have had nothing but a positive experience. Well done.
Selling used model railway
I submitted detailed list of my large model railway items to various companies for value and Rails of Sheffield was by far the best offer. They even arranged collection at no cost to me. They conducted the whole process very efficient and professional. Their communication was first class and they were easy to deal with. Very pleased with my transaction.
