<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 401409, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> One of my favorite finds came from a horrible yard sale. Was driving by and saw the sign. Stopped and it was all horrible used baby stuff. The baby was three years old and Mom decided to get rid of everything. Stained bibs, torn clothes etc. As I was leaving I saw five large cardboard boxes by the driveway. I looked in and there was five boxes of Depression Glass. I asked the woman want she wanted for the glassware. She said a dollar a box. I gave her 25 dollars. I would have given more but 25 was all I had at the time. There was a complete dinner set of 12 place settings of green American Pioneer and all of the serving pieces. Plus 30 other pieces of DG. Sold the entire set for 1500 dollars and the other pieces went for another 200 dollars. Took me three days to sell all of it. I went back a week later but could not find the house. I wanted to give the woman more money but it was a big development. </p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
