<p>[QUOTE="ola402, post: 4209343, member: 182"]This is what I would do. First, throw out the manufacturer's estimate of the retail price. They have a vested interest in a high price. Measure the vase and look for vases on line (mainly ebay) of the same height and shape. See what they are selling for and base your price on that. The reason you're likely not seeing any exact examples of this vase is that it is too new. The people who own one are not finished with it yet so none are for sale. Start a little high, you can always come down in price, but seldom can you go up. I always think of 3 prices, 1. what is the least I will accept, 2. what price would I be very happy with, and 3. the highest price (in your case $785), and try to figure from there what to sell it for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
