<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 9520621, member: 10944"]If it’s really an overwhelming amount of stuff then getting a dealer to look at it where it sits would be the best bet probably. I thought of a creative solution for finding an applicable dealer in your area if you can’t find one via conventional methods. You could search eBay for antique glass using a filter that will give you only results within a close proximity to your home/storage. You could then see if there’s a seller with lots of listings whose listings look particularly knowledgeable. You could then send them a message and ask if they’d be interested in appraising and/or selling your collection for you. You have to get sneaky/careful about sharing contact info on eBay but it can be done. In the long run it would be good for them (ebay) if that dealer ended up selling your collection on ebay so I would not feel wrong about starting the dialogue on ebay even if against their policies technically. Just an idea. Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
