<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Viki, post: 64106, member: 702&quot;]Hello everyone, I&#039;m new to antiques, I have an interest in them but never actually sold anything myself.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have 2 items that are definitely antiques however, I&#039;m not sure how to date or value them, I am looking to sell them but I do not want to be conned.</p><p><br /></p><p>No.1 is the antique mirror. My granddad brought this in the early 70&#039;s when he was made redundant for £9 from a local antique shop. I&#039;m unsure how old this I&#039;m guessing between 1930-40 judging by the design. In the images provided the mirror is in pieces that&#039;s because I&#039;m cleaning it and it&#039;s a bit dusty but otherwise good condition. It&#039;s solid, varnished wood with thick heavy glass and a chain to hang it with. It&#039;s held together by small tacks. I would like to know the age and the minimum amount I should accept for this.</p><p><br /></p><p>The clocking in clock is in bad condition and I have been offered £20 for it I have no key for it, one of the handles have fell off its mountings and the wood is chipped. This came from the Derby Rolls Royce factory in the 60&#039;s I believe. I would like to know if £20 is a reasonable offer? Someone is coming to collect it tomorrow.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope someone can help me <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>[ATTACH=full]16591[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]16593[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]16591[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]16594[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]16592[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]16593[/ATTACH] </p><p>Thank you!</p><p><br /></p><p>PS.
