“It is a world tour of art and craft,” Mr Campbell said.
“There’s something for everyone.”
For Mr Germyn the market will be used to fund an ongoing project he hopes will lead to a new museum.
He is hoping to purchase a giant Colombian hand press to feature in an antique printing museum he aims to open in the Bega Valley.
