Mullock Jones in short
Mullock Jones is a specialist auction house at its Halesfield rooms in Telford, selling sporting memorabilia, antique fishing tackle, historical documents and ephemera through live and timed online sales. You can bid in the room, by phone or over the internet, and the buyer fee scale is published in full up front. Our verdict: it is our best overall Telford auctioneer, and it suits collectors and sellers of niche material who want a specialist room. The record shows valuation routes for would-be sellers alongside a published address, phone, email and office hours, so first contact looks straightforward [3] [4].
Customer reviews sit in the low fours on Google across a modest set of thirty-odd reviews, the only public listing we hold [7]. Industry qualifications could not be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked. The company record is checkable, with the limited company active at the same address for well over a decade.
The customer evidence itself is thin but warm: a single Google listing showing 4.2 from 32 reviews, with no second platform to set against it [7]. Our read is that a set this small rewards reading the individual reviews rather than leaning on the average, since a handful of new scores would move it. There is simply not much public shouting either way, which fits a niche room selling to collectors rather than the general public.
What counts against our view is the seller-side paperwork: no commission rates and no insurance details are published on the pages checked [3] [5]. Mullock Jones remains the strongest room in a small field, but consignors deserve those figures up front.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Mullock Jones suits you if you collect or sell sporting memorabilia, fishing tackle or historical documents and want a Telford specialist with published buyer fees and regular sales [1] [2] [5]. The gaps are seller commission rates and insurance details, neither published. Its company record at the Halesfield rooms runs back to 2009 [6].

Questions about Mullock Jones
Is Mullock Jones any good?
On the evidence, yes for collectors: it tops our two-firm Telford table with regular specialist sales, bidding in the room, by phone and online, and buyer fees published in full [1] [2] [5]. The Google review set is modest at thirty-odd reviews, so read the card and its sources in full. Send the room photographs of your lot and ask about the next suitable sale.
Is Mullock Jones NAVA registered?
No scheme membership could be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked [1] [2]. No mandatory registration applies to auctioneers, so there is nothing compulsory missing. Ask the room which body, if any, it belongs to, and check the answer on that body's own register before you consign.
What does Mullock Jones charge?
Buyers pay a published premium of 20.5% plus VAT, with payment and collection terms set out alongside it [5]. No seller commission rates are published, so the selling side is unwritten. Ask for the seller commission, any lotting fee and the payment date in writing before you consign.

How does Mullock Jones compare with Wilsons Auctions?
Our September round puts Mullock Jones first and Wilsons second, and the two barely overlap.
