Why fabtintoys?

 

Already since the first auction sites appeared on the internet, I've been trying to find those hard-to-find collectibles on the outskirts of the (virtual) earth. Why? I can't help it: I am addicted, addicted to collecting old or strange 'things' :).

Since it is easy to search for items on one site, it takes a lot of effort and time to find those precious items on all auction sites in all countries over the world.

With fabtintoys I combine those auction sites from different countries. I also make a selection of categories which are important for toy collectors. Sometimes sellers put their items in other or 'wrong' categories. How can you find those? Again, it will take a lot of time to search through every category. If you're looking for an antique doll, do you search through the 'doll' category or 'antiques'? Maybe both... With this website I hope that your toy and doll collecting life will be easier. It safes time and maybe also some money, so I really hope you'll find this site informative and useful, and if you have any comments, suggestions or questions, don't hesitate and contact us.

UPDATE (09/2009):
I am currently building a multiple language database, so if you're searching in English and looking for e.g. a model steam engine and you click on the French flag, you'll look in French auction sites for 'machine a vapeur' (which is French for 'steam engine') or for Belgium and the Netherlands it will be 'stoommachine'. Obviously, this will take some time, I'll keep you updated. Now it only works with 'steam' for French & Dutch.
