Italian term or phrase: prendere in consegna
Ciao.
E' la descrizione dell'attività di un antiquario.
"Acquisto o prendo in consegna da privati e collezionisti dipinti dell’800 e ’900 di ambito veneto e italiano"
Non mi viene nessuna resa per quel "prendo in consegna". Sono un po' fusa...

Grazie mille
