What does Retrosellers.com do?

Retrosellers is an information site which includes interviews with the movers and shakers of the last 60 years from both sides of the Atlantic as well as features on many of the best businesses specialising in retro and nostalgia themed-products and services.

How did retrosellers come about?

In recent times, the interest in all things nostalgic and retrospective has exploded into a thriving worldwide industry.

Whether you're selling music, fashion, books, furniture, cars or celebrity material, there is an avid target market out there, ranging from the original trend-setters to their children (and grandchildren!) Victoriana, Mod, Glam, WWII and forties, Vintage, Rock and Roll and Fifties - all have thriving communities of collectors, re-enactors and people living the lifestyle. 'Ordinary' people too have an interest in the things they grew up with or what their parents or grandparents did. And so retro and nostalgia is thriving and growing even in these uncertain times.  

History is famously known to repeat itself, especially if it's wearing platform shoes, drainpipe trousers or a feather boa. 2001 saw the launch of retrosellers.com. "The site will serve as a 'one-stop' portal/directory of all the best nostalgic and retrospective businesses around the world." Retrosellers.com was the brainchild of David 'Digger' Barnes, creator of the renowned 1960s British Pop Culture web site which was Yahoo's 'Pick of the Week' and of which America's Entertainment Weekly wrote: ""Shagadelic" doesn't even begin to describe this Union Jack-filled tribute to swinging London and the British Invasion….Yeah, baby!"

David has received hundreds of emails on a monthly basis and most have been seeking information, especially on product relating to the forties, fifties, sixties, seventies and eighties. The volume of enquiries pointed to an urgent need for a custom-made site to bring enthusiastic buyers and specialist retailers together. So far, nearly 500 businesses have 'joined' the Retrosellers website to promote their products and services. Many tell us we are a great source of referral and business for them as well as a good way to make contact with other like-minded businesses.

For people looking for retro and nostalgia products and services there's no bigger and better place to look than Retrosellers. Plus we are updating the website daily with new Retro Features, Star Interviews and links to great websites.
