Will Axon Flog It!

Will Axon is an antiques expert on BBC’s Flog It! presented by Paul Martin. Some of the experts that have featured on the show include Raj Bisram, Kate Bliss, James Braxton, Anita Manning and Natasha Raskin Sharp.

Speaking about his experiences of being on Flog it!, Will said in an interview with Kingston University: “Filming Flog it! and working with the BBC is great fun. It gets me out of the office, takes me to places I haven’t had the chance to visit before, and is a great way of building up professional contacts with other valuers and auctioneers!

“It’s a long old day when we’re filming though, as we regularly get several hundred people queuing up to show us their treasures – and Flog it! promises to see every single person who makes the effort to come to one of our valuation days and give them a valuation for the pieces they’ve brought.

“Another highlight of being in Flog it! is the variety of people you meet from all walks of life and the stories they have about the pieces they’ve brought. In fact, sometimes the stories can be more fascinating than the items themselves and we’re just as interested in the story or history behind an object as its value!”
