About Philaton.com
Who we are
Philaton.com is a web portal managed by Antonio Torres UK Ltd, 82 St John Street, London EC1M 4JN, a company registered in England and Wales No 4719866, VAT # GB 810487932.
Structure
Philaton defines its activity as an
interactive internet portal for professional stamp auctioneers. It is born and
managed by a group of philatelists with commercial activity including on line
auctions experience from the beginning of this sector. They also have their own
stamp business and continue in permanent contact with market reality.
Philaton.com is the domain name of a portal with economic and technical activity
in different countries in the American and European Continents. The modern
internet technology allows us to do so, achieving a more efficient and cost
effective organization. We have our own team of software engineers and
philatelic consultants to help with any matters that may rise. All programs are
developed by us and constantly updated to hopefully avoid the technical
imperfections.
Philatelic approach
At Philaton we understand philately is a valuable hobby and a passion. Our goal is to provide a simple, easy to use, friendly website with the latest advanced technology where dealers chosen by us organize real stamp auctions on-line; and both collectors and dealers can meet with confidence. It is 100% handled by philatelists for philatelists. We feel that as we trust our health to the doctor, or deposit our money with the good banker, you also want to feel as safe as possible with your stamp purchases to avoid unexpected disappointments.
Building a healthy community
