Although London used to be the prime buying place for antiques, regional and suburban Antiques Fairs have now taken over as major buying places of interest.Getting around London is fairly easy by Tube (underground) or Bus. Unlimited travel passes are available at tube stations. Taxis are reasonably priced and always have a working meter.You can stay in London in Travel Lodge hotels at reasonable prices (bargains in Winter and early Spring) When Antiques shopping in London you will almost always have to pay Cash in Sterling and it is sensible to wear comfortable shoes as many streets are still cobblestones - especially in markets.Please note that his page changes DAILY and it would be sensible to bookmark it to avoid missing a bargain !
To be ABSOLUTELY certain of the authenticity of a high cost antique, buy from a member of the LAPDA Antiques association (with very strict rules and good members !)
Most London Antiques dealers are honest and will answer questions truthfully.
