<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MrNate, post: 910736, member: 5515&quot;]Hey Jeff, </p><p>I meant to follow up from that story, but perhaps it was shame/disappointment that kept me from putting the words on paper. Overall, I was happy with the process through the auction house, but it isn&#039;t something I&#039;ll be doing again. I was feeling pretty optimistic about the value I would get out of my collection, and there were a number of sales that I was downright mad about. For example, I posted a beautiful non-weighted three-piece tea set made by Hamilton &amp; Desinger awhile ago. All three items are beautiful, all three items are non-weighted, all three items weigh a combined 22.5 ounces of sterling silver......and they sold for $275. </p><p><br /></p><p>The auction house did their job, and I got the convenience of taking it all in and letting someone else do the work for me, but I would have made more on my own selling on ebay, even with the fees and shipping. I just didn&#039;t realize it at the time. I wouldn&#039;t call it a big lesson, but a lesson none-the-less. Total $$$ that I got after the auction fee was $4150. Not a bad day at all, and I&#039;ll never complain especially on this site, but I won&#039;t make the same mistake twice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
