Collectors.Org is the place to get collecting information. It is the
largest, strictly free information website for collecting clubs -- serving
club leaders, their members and the entire antiques, art and collectibles
industry. No special fees, no logins, passwords, sign-ups or registration

news and helpful information updated on a continuing basis.
Information features on Collectors.Org include the largest, most
comprehensive collecting club directory of over 5,000 clubs, largest flea
market directory, auctioneers listing, an events calendar announcing club

The main purpose of the 15-year-old site is to assist leaders of
collecting clubs and societies in better serving their memberships and
their collecting audiences and to provide resources for individual
collectors, regardless of what they collect - areas like insurance and
security; reproductions, fakes and frauds; collection management;
collection dispersal; global collecting and using new technologies. The
site also offers information on the Hobby Protection Act, patents, lists
various collecting glossaries, and has opinion surveys and discussion
groups.
