<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bercrystal, post: 1111872, member: 88&quot;]I remember when I first started going to the auction house where I work back in 2001 there were several big time Roseville collectors. Whenever a piece would come in you could almost count on very spirited bidding &amp; if it was a certain pattern Katie bar the door!!! Now it might take us several auctions to get anyone to even bid $10 on pieces. </p><p><br /></p><p>I often wonder what happened to some of those collections. There was 1 couple who were likely in their 70&#039;s &amp; the wife was the collector. Her DH would dutifully buy whatever piece she wanted &amp; would pay whatever he had to to get the piece. They openly admitted their children were not in the least impressed &amp; wanted none of it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
