<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 210571, member: 51"]Yes, they will say "KJL Avon" or "Elizabeth Taylor Avon". But not even those signed pieces are necessarily worth much --they have to have that signature <i>and</i> be the type that is sought after. Sought after is typically big and bold, lots of rhinestones, over the top, that kind of thing. So maybe the best thing is to just look at the jewelry lot --is there anything that stands out, a necklace or pin just loaded with rhinestones, etc. Something that looks so much fancier than the rest? If yes, then check to see if it has that signature. No idea if you have the way to check Ebay, but if you go under "Completed Auctions" and then "Sold" and search "KJL Avon", etc. you will see what sold and for how much.</p><p><br /></p><p>I asked about original boxes, if you had a huge inventory, you could sell to another seller, but with only a few boxes doesn't make sense.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm not sure how much jewelry you have, but all of this lower end costume does not have huge resale value and is a bit tricky to sell.
