<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnnycb09, post: 2147507, member: 27&quot;]Ive never hit it big as in the 1000s ,though Im sure I had things that passed through my hands that might have been worth that! A few offhand that I found for pennies and sold later for what I considered at the time a nice profit were a Russian silver and enamel ink well (oh how I still regret that one!) ,a 2 carat diamond ring set in a double headed eagle wich I traded for a 1978 Buick (I loved that boat of a car !) , a set of 3 cameo glass vases I bought for $20 each and sold for $200 each ,a Steven graph silk weaving I bought for $1 at a garage sale and sold for $250 . I could do this for hours ! I was lucky in that I had a pretty good eye at times and whenever I sold something it was always needed . Of course I regret a lot of it now ,like the Tiffany clock and candelabras I sold for $500 ( I was 19 ! Ive told that story on here before) . One of my many regrets was the set of watercolors in a calfskin portfolio of Mexican flora and fauna that I found in a thrift in Denver for $5 that I sold for $500. Not realizing at the time they were probably 200 years old !I framed them and had them hanging on the wall . They were truly exquisite .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
