<p>[QUOTE="Marko, post: 71674, member: 210"]LOL! Got up at 5 a.m. today. Very few sales today, but I got up early to go to a sale that advertised 60 years worth of antiques. Well, that was a big fib. I waited until the older couple got up, the jewelry was Wal-mart stuff. So I drove to an estate sale that said no early birds at the next town down. I got there a half hour early, and of course, people were already there. A guy was going through an earring box, and a big basket of jewelry was on the floor. He said he didn't find anything in it, but he grabbed the earrings all for $20 before I could look. I know there had to be some nice 14k earrings in there, because I found the mate to one in a cardboard box- huge opal 14k single earring......[ATTACH=full]18567[/ATTACH]</p><p>So most of what you see was in the basket, a few things from another estate sale down the road and two more yard sales... all sterling, some very heavy pieces in the basket. The top price on any one items was $5, and only three things cost that- most was $2 to $3 a piece. I did pick up some 14k and nice costume, not photographed. Getting up at 4 a.m. tomorrow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
