    Hey everyone!

    So yeah, have a bunch of stuff around my house (mom was a shopaholic). It looks like many of these things seems to be valuable. So, I’m finally ready to get rid of some things. Your help and experience would be much appreciated since I don’t have a clue about many things around here. I do my own research on Google, but still kind of hard to find out the real value of these things or what they are.

    Thank you!

    Where is your house located? I ask because value depends heavily upon location.
    An example of this is brown wood furniture. In many states at this point in time, it's mostly only popular with the younger generation as a surface to paint upon or a piece to repurpose into a bathroom sink or cabinet or whatever. So it may not bring top dollar unless it is a fine antique.

    We can often find a value for you for any vintage piece of anything online in closed auction sales records.

    The more photographs of the DETAILS of whatever it is that you have, the better identification we can help make for you. If it is pottery or glass, please photograph the bottoms and interiors of everything. If it is furniture, the bottoms, backs, drawer assemblies. You can use these same photographs to list the pieces online for sale once you find good values.

    Let us know if you need instructions to upload photographs.
