<p>[QUOTE=&quot;evelyb30, post: 333321, member: 36&quot;]Paper plates are great for pizza and making bacon. Otherwise...no.&nbsp; I&#039;m with [USER=121]@Mansons2005[/USER]&nbsp; on that one.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I look for stuff in good shape that&#039;s older than dirt.&nbsp; Oddities.&nbsp; Odd markings that don&#039;t fit the mold. My set of child&#039;s play china, all serving pieces, just shipped to someone in California for over $140 more than I paid for it.&nbsp; Packing was a pain, but the buyer probably thinks she got a good deal.&nbsp; Years ago, when I still sold fragile stuff somewhat regularly, someone in the UK paid more in postage for some old plates than the plates cost themselves.&nbsp; (I was into them for all of $2) They weren&#039;t fancy, plain white with a gray rim, but they were from a factory in Yorkshire circa 1830.&nbsp; I&#039;m guessing it was a case of filling in the pieces of Grandma&#039;s set.&nbsp; OTOH I donated most of the 60s Lenox giftware I bought years ago; you can&#039;t give it away now.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
