Estate Sales

Dear Friend,

Thank you for expressing interest in GCBM R/C Models Estate and Hobby Shop Inventory Liquidation Service. We are a professional, full time business, serving the needs of estate and hobby shop inventory sellers since 1995. We offer a one stop, reliable, and honest means of liquidating your estate or hobby shop inventory.

• Do you or someone you know have a garage, closet, basement, or attic full of engines, kits, radios, or building/field accessories that you would like to turn into cold hard cash?
• Are you a hobby shop owner who would like to liquidate some or your shop’s entire inventory?
• Has there been a death in the family, and now you don’t know what to do with the deceased loved one’s hobby items?
• Are you an Estate Attorney, and need an expert to provide an unbiased fair market value on a large hobby estate?
• Are you going through a divorce, and need an expert to provide an unbiased fair market value on your hobby collection (potentially saving your thousands of dollars)?
• Would you prefer to sell your estate through a consignment arrangement?

If your answer is “yes” to any of the above, GCBM R/C Models can help, no matter how big or how small the estate!

We buy the following new and used items:

• Model airplane kits of all kinds, ARF’s and ARC’s
• Model airplane engines and parts, both modern and vintage.
• Model airplane radios, both modern and vintage.
• Field and building equipment, shop equipment, as well as other types of support equipment.
• R/C electric flight kits and related support items.
• Plastic and resin model car, boat, and airplane kits.
• R/C Cars, related equipment, parts and accessories.
• R/C boats, related equipment, parts, and accessories.

We usually cannot buy:

• Ready to fly models, but RTF’s will be considered if we pick up the estate personally or shipping size is not too large.

We positively do not buy the following:

• Model train collections of any sort.

Here are GCBM R/C Model Inc.’s simple guidelines for purchasing your estate or hobby shop inventory:

1. Phone, fax, post, or email a complete inventory of what you have. Name brands, new or used, number of duplicate items, and part numbers where applicable are helpful in order to accurately assess your estate’s value.
2. Provide pictures by email or USPS of all items. Groups of items are OK, but focus must be crisp and clear. You can email your inventory list and pictures to: mlmcgraw@pdq.net .
3. In most cases, photos will suffice for proof of condition and ownership. Some estates will need to be sent to GCBM R/C Models Inc. for inspection prior to purchase.

Here is what we offer you, the potential seller:

• Cold, hard cash* in your hand.
• Avoiding the considerable time and effort of individually pricing and selling each item in the estate or selling out a hobby shop inventory, waiting for checks to clear, etc.
• Fast buy out, pick up (in some cases), courteous professionalism, and the convenience of a one time sell off of the entire inventory.
• And above all, HONESTY.
• References available on request.
  

* Usually in the form of a cashier’s check, but in some cases we pay actual cash.
