[QUOTE="Pat P, post: 586289, member: 201"]I'm thinking of selling a few antique and vintage glass salt and pepper shakers (sorry I don't have pics yet) and have a few questions, please. If the shaker has a metal top that's plain and it's in bad shape, is it better to replace the top with something new that's similar before trying to sell the shaker? I assume if the top is decorative it's better to keep it with the shaker even if the top is damaged? What if a shaker doesn't have a top... should I buy a new top for it before selling it? Also, how much do salt shaker collectors usually care about broken glass along the rim? TIA for any perspective... :)[/QUOTE]
