Selling a collection and you're west of the Shannon? You no longer have to box it all up and ship it to Dublin. We've set up a drop-off point in Manorhamilton, Co. Leitrim, so collectors across the north-west and the wider west of Ireland can hand a collection over in person — once we've agreed it with you first. And if even Manorhamilton is a trek, we can send a fully tracked UPS pickup to your door instead, anywhere in Ireland or Northern Ireland (more on that below).
The Manorhamilton drop-off
We're collectors buying from collectors. For years the only way to sell us a collection was to post it to our Dublin base, arrange a courier, or drive it down to us yourself. That's a lot to ask when you've a garage full of figures and a few hours between you and the M50. Our drop-off point closes that gap for the west of Ireland.
It works through Caroline at Caz-Cards on Main Street in Manorhamilton. The important bit: it's a drop-off point only — really just another way to get your collection to us, like posting it or a courier, but local and in person. Caroline boxes it up and UPS brings it down to us; she doesn't value anything or make offers. The valuing and the offer are all agreed with us in advance, so the first step is always to message us before you bring anything in.
Where to drop off
- Location: Caz-Cards Gift Shop, Main Street, Manorhamilton, Co. Leitrim, F91 HW29 — find it on Google Maps
- Opening hours: Monday to Friday, 9:30am – 5pm
- Shop phone (drop-off queries only): (071) 985 6434 — handy for checking the shop is open before you travel. Caroline can't value collections, make offers or agree a sale — that's all done with us first.
- Arrange it first — always: Nothing can be dropped off until we've agreed it with you. Message us on WhatsApp +353 85 827 2191, email us at info@uncannycollectibles.com, or any of our socials. If you arrive without arranging it first, Caroline will have to ask you to contact us before she can take anything in.
What we buy
If it lived on a collector's shelf, there's a good chance we want it:
- Pre-owned and vintage action figures (1970s–2000s onwards) and current-line figures
- Star Wars, Aliens, Predator, TMNT and other sci-fi and fantasy lines
- Transformers, vintage and modern
- Masters of the Universe — vintage and Origins
- Horror collectibles, prop replicas and statues
- Whole collections — loose figures, carded figures, the lot
Selling a parent's collection or settling an estate? We handle those carefully. We'll explain what things are worth and why, and we won't lowball you. If a collection is too big to move, talk to us — we can work something out.
Got comics? There's a route for those too
We don't buy comics ourselves — but Sam at WHAM! Comics Shop, who we work with, does, and you can still use the Manorhamilton drop-off for them. It works the same way, with one extra step: it has to be agreed with Sam in advance, because Sam approves the comics and Sam pays for them, not us — we're just passing them along. Sam's always after cheap comics, especially Panini ones (he doesn't take Beano, Dandy or 2000AD). Full details are in our guide to selling your comics in Ireland.
Retro video games & consoles? Another route
We don't deal in retro video games or consoles ourselves — but Amy at Retro Ralph, who we work with, does, and the Manorhamilton drop-off can work for those too. It runs just like the comics route: it has to be agreed with Amy in advance, because Amy approves the items and Amy pays for them, not us — we're only passing them along. Amy is mostly online and at shows, so the easiest way to reach her is through her website at retroralph.ie. Sort it with Amy first, then the games and consoles can come through the drop-off like anything else.
What we don't buy
A few things we'll always say no to, so you don't make a wasted trip:
- Trading cards — a firm no. No Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh! or sports cards. We don't deal in them at all.
- WWE / wrestling figures. The market's flooded, so these aren't for us.
- Anime-only collections. Same story — it's not a market we're in.
- Funko-only collections. We carry some Funko but it isn't our focus, and we don't buy collections made up only of Funko.
If a bigger mixed collection has a few WWE, anime or Funko pieces in among everything else, that's fine — send it through and we'll take a look at the lot. There's more on all of this in what we do and don't buy.
How it works
- Get in touch and agree it first. Message us on WhatsApp, email or social with a few photos and a rough idea of what you've got. We value it from there and agree a fair offer with you — based on what the items actually are and what the market's doing — before anything moves. No obligation; if the numbers don't suit, there's no hard feelings.
- Drop it off. Once we've agreed the offer, bring your collection to Caz-Cards in Manorhamilton during opening hours. Caroline boxes it up and UPS collects it and brings it down to us. (You can still post it to Dublin, arrange a courier, or drive it down to us directly if that suits you better.)
- Payment. We pay you the agreed amount by bank transfer as soon as the collection reaches us — usually a few days after you drop it off, once it's been packed and UPS has made the run.
Too far to travel? We'll send a UPS pickup
If you're nowhere near Manorhamilton, you don't have to travel at all. Once we've agreed the deal, we can arrange a fully tracked UPS collection from your door, anywhere in Ireland or Northern Ireland. You box your collection up, stick on the UPS label we send you, and UPS brings it to us — you can track it the whole way, and we pay on arrival. Same rule as always: it's all agreed first, so you know the offer before anything is collected. And there's nothing extra for you to pay — the cost of the pickup is baked into the offer we make, so the figure we agree is the figure you get.
Why sell to a specialist
A charity shop won't know what a carded vintage figure is worth. A general second-hand dealer will undervalue the harder-to-find pieces. List it yourself online and you're into postage, packing, fees and the odd buyer trying to scam you out of a refund. We know these lines, we know the market, and we give old toys a second life — back onto the shelves of collectors who'll actually display and care for them. That's the whole point of what we do.
Uncanny started in a spare bedroom in 2017 and grew into a full-time operation supplying collectors across Ireland, the UK and beyond. We won Google's "You're the Business" award in 2025 and we've been featured by eBay as a seller expert. When you sell to us, you're dealing directly with Kim, who's been collecting this stuff for years — not a faceless buyer.

Sligo, Donegal, Roscommon, Mayo, Cavan, Fermanagh — if you're anywhere in the north-west or the wider west, the Manorhamilton drop-off is built for you. No long haul to the capital, no courier paperwork. Agree it with us, then bring it in.
