On 1st October 2025, the Delcampe marketplace, a global leader in the world of collectibles, will celebrate its 25th anniversary. Founded in 2000 by Sébastien Delcampe, a philately enthusiast and well-known public figure thanks to his regular appearances as a buyer on the French television programme Affaire conclue, the platform has established itself as a key player for collectors around the world.
25 years serving collectors Since its inception, Delcampe has made it its mission to bring together buyers and sellers of rare and valuable items: stamps, postcards, coins, comic books and much more. In a quarter of a century, the marketplace has seen its members exchange tens of millions of items in more than 190 countries, creating a true community of collectors and enthusiasts.
A human-scale platform with international reach Thanks to its user-friendly interface and internal customer service team renowned for its availability, Delcampe has become the go-to virtual marketplace for collectors, both novice and experienced. Based in Belgium, the company has remained true to its values of proximity while developing powerful technological tools to facilitate online transactions.
Our passionate founder, always ready to listen Sébastien Delcampe embodies the spirit of the platform. He was only 22 when he programmed the site himself, which would go on to become a global reference for collectors. His daily involvement in the development of Delcampe is testament to his commitment to the community he has built around his vision. In recent years, his role in the Frenchs-speaking collectors’ favourite television programme has demonstrated his passion and knowledge of antique items.
An anniversary marked by sharing To mark this important milestone, Delcampe is preparing a series of digital events and surprises for its members, which will take place throughout the website’s 25th anniversary year.
