Meet Chad Busby — Owner & Proprietor, Busby Antiques & Collectibles.

I've been buying and selling antiques and collectibles for over 25 years, and honestly, it never gets old. It started when I was 14 years old in Gainesville, Florida, trading comic books and toys — and that same passion for finding hidden value in forgotten things still drives me today. In 2004, I launched Busby Antiques & Collectibles on eBay, and what started as a small online operation has grown into a 9-person team serving collectors, families, and estate sellers across Florida and beyond. We specialize in sterling silver, antique coin silver, fine china, crystal, estate gold jewelry, diamonds, comic books, vintage toys, and full estate buyouts — yes, including the cars and real estate. We buy collections of all sizes, from a single piece to an entire estate, and we pay fair, honest prices every time. No storefront, no pressure. Just straight talk and 25 years of expertise backing every offer I make. We're based in Oviedo, Florida, and available by appointment at our office on Eyrie Drive.
