About Budgedad Antiques and Collectibles

My name is Paul BUDGE Aronson and for many years, antiques and collectibles have been a passion for me. About a dozen years ago I decided to make this a way of life and my livelihood. Romping through malls and antique stores, attending numerous auctions and estate sales on a weekly basis, purchasing privately and even garage sales have been my primary method of acquiring Collectibles and Antiques. The fun of the hunt has always been the motivation for me and when I found I could distribute these finds to other people who appreciate them, as much as I, the motivation for me increased a hundred fold.

How many people are lucky enough to earn their living in a business that is also their hobby? Not many. I may work more hours a week than the average person but very few people enjoy what they do for a living as much as I. It is really not work but fun and a good portion of my social life as well while shared with family and friends.

I distributed my finds by selling privately; consigning to auctions & have numerous physical locations in malls or shops. Then in January, 1998 Ebay was added to my methods of reaching the public. If I may say, it was achieved with overwhelming success. My seller name of ‘BUDGE’ on Ebay is that of a respected Power Seller with a feedback approaching 15,000 and almost 20,000 positive comments. I estimate that under the name ‘BUDGE’ more than 50,000 items have been sold. The amount of customers who return to ‘BUDGE’ on Ebay is high and for a good reasons; honesty, reliability, service, integrity, fine product and caring about customers & friends.

That’s not just a catch phrase, but the way I do business. It is my way of life. This web-site is based on the premise that I can offer my finds yet another way to my friends and clients so they can make their purchases with confidence. My friends and customers will be able to get what they are looking for and it is done with the knowledge that there is an unquestionable reliability that assures all those who visit that there are no tricks here. I recommend that you take the time to check our feedback on Ebay.

Enjoy and make purchases with the knowledge that guarantee our items to be what we say and choose from the abundance or inventory in Antiques, Collectibles as well as other categories; read the articles and share my thoughts, but most of all discover my world of Antiques & Collectibles.
