[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 213142, member: 25"]New silver prices are a joke, or a conspiracy against the public. I'd simply polish them up by hand. Not everyone likes ultra shiny silver. The look of old silver is made up of a million tiny weeny scratches earned over the years. These are fairly new,you say, but they are starting on the way to become old silver. I am pretty sure that you could pick up a bench polisher for the £40 you mention, a little rouge for the buffing wheel and you'd not need to pay anyone again.[/QUOTE]
