<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 261652, member: 36"]As for the repairs, sometimes the sentimental value of a piece is higher than the monetary value. This may well have been Grandma's pot, and when it broke ... you can get a new teapot, but not a new Grandma. I found a transferware soap dish this weekend with a staple repair, probably for the same reason. I half wish I'd bought it now, for the story I could have made up to go with it if nothing else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
