  3. You could send the email again and explain that as you haven't had a reply, you wonder if it has even arrived. Also, you could ask rather than give you the collector's email address, would it be possible to forward your email to the collector and then he can contact you if he wants to. If you haven't already given your location and used please and/or thank you several times in your original email, it won't hurt to do so this time.
