Hi,
My grandma has recently died, and she has a lot of royal doulton figurines which she has collected over the years. The family will probably keep some as momento’s but I was wondering what would be a good way to sell the others online… I know there is ebay but I don’t think that’s really the best way to sell specialist objects is it? Ideas appreciated
I would go to a reputable auction house where they will put them on the internet and in their catalogue.
They will also value them for you.
Dalton figures always depend on rarity of the model and age
avoid eBay.
There is a letter A on the left hand side of the stamp. Very bizzarre!
Check out these items on e bay. That should give you a clue.

This one also has the A stamp:

Ive got a full 10 place sitting Royal Doulton crockery set that Im thinking of getting valued. Its got the full works ranging from tea set – steak and normal plates – cake stand – serving plates. Massive set and never been used. Was passed down to me. Its all got royal doulton stamp. Also has CANTON H5052 on it. Would anyone have an idea what its worth?
There are quite a few pieces on EBay, so look on there it will give you some idea of prices. A cake stand it £12, Sugar bowl £9.99 Milk jug £9.99, Coffee cup and saucer £12.99, Tea plate £6.50. They are not hugely expensive but it would soon mount up with the quantity that you have.
It has a yellow and pink floral pattern.
this one?…

Has some sort of signature on back -Flowers could be poppies?
Would like history and value if possible.
Could be "Sandsprite" http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Royal-Doulton-Lambeth-SANDSPRITE-LS1013-6-PLATES-L-K_W0QQitemZ180161331820QQihZ008QQcategoryZ65029QQcmdZViewItem
I checked several internet sites and replacements.com. Many have pattern names with numbers starting with "V" and near "V 430", but none had it. This is probably circa 1929 as the saucers seem backstamped (embossed) with actual dates!
