[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 4424729, member: 301"]You asked........here's my answer.. I am not bothered by your love of antiques.....your quest to learn.....your interest in gaining knowledge ,,,,, that is why you're intro page is full of welcoming greetings !!!;);).:woot: This is not a site for getting values on items. It never was. But what you don't see, that I do, is a large number of new posters.... only interested in what their items are worth. The fact that most of the items in question are not even antiques... I've learned to live with , but putting values on items hither & yon is fraught with so many problems, and we are not a band of expert appraisers . In truth....I actually feel bad that I ...... we.....can't properly help those that come here struggling to find out if they have something they can sell to put food on the table. Times are tough..... but the more folks that land here with " what's the value of this"...... will be seen by even more folks that think this is the place where we'll tell them exactly how much their items are worth.......and they will be let down ! That's just not what this site is about !:meh: That said ..... I hope I've answered your question in a non offensive manner and in a way that makes some kinda of sense. :) ps. ( we have a Finds thread on this site......it is primarily about valuable items that our members have found at yard sales, ill wills, sally Anns.... estate sales.....and Thrift shops....... that were not valued properly , or not recognized as expensive , or silver marked as silver plate , or 14 K & 18 K gold jewelry that was found in the costume pile for $3.99 , or a 2 dollar tag slapped over the Tiffany mark...........) I suggest you read that thread......every page...... at the very least it will be an eye opener......at best , it will help you with pitfalls that can arise in your type of business ! Komo[/QUOTE]
