<p>[QUOTE=&quot;northernridge, post: 108533, member: 215&quot;]I&#039;ve just returned from Muller&#039;s in Hamburg, PA. We didn&#039;t do the damaging test, but they agree that it does not contain silver. They also agree the material is likely to be bone. Basically, it has no value except for aesthetic. But it really is a lovely piece, with fine filigree work.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m planning to schedule a listing for Monday, the 25th (in time for Valentine gifts). So the new question is what price to list it for. If an item is choice, I tend to start low—9.99—and let demand drive the price up. But this ended listing gives me pause:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vtg-Antique-Chinese-Silver-8-Links-Immortals-Scrimshaw-Filigree-Bracelet-/191746872926?hash=item2ca501165e%3Ag%3Ad3QAAOSwYH5WB2if&amp;nma=true&amp;si=O4KVdmiOrySmfhIaTbJZcywOyRE%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vtg-Antique-Chinese-Silver-8-Links-Immortals-Scrimshaw-Filigree-Bracelet-/191746872926?hash=item2ca501165e%3Ag%3Ad3QAAOSwYH5WB2if&amp;nma=true&amp;si=O4KVdmiOrySmfhIaTbJZcywOyRE%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vtg-Antique-Chinese-Silver-8-Links-Immortals-Scrimshaw-Filigree-Bracelet-/191746872926?hash=item2ca501165e:g:d3QAAOSwYH5WB2if&amp;nma=true&amp;si=O4KVdmiOrySmfhIaTbJZcywOyRE%3D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc&amp;_trksid=p2047675.l2557</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Any suggestions?
