<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 1415385, member: 308"]Valuations on these types of items are tricky in the best of circumstances. For awhile the market was flooded with clowns from China and I think that might have dampened demand for glass clowns in general. And the Murano/Italian market is not as lively as it used to be. Would you be trying to sell online or in a shop and how much do you have invested? How quick do you want to sell? </p><p><br /></p><p>And sometimes it's best not to overthink. As there is one for sale at $275 that has not sold my temptation would be to list it on fixed price at $199 and see if I get any bites. A less appealing option is to start it at auction at the lowest price you can live with and see what happens. I say less appealing option because auction don't seem to generate as much interest as they used to unless the starting price is really low. And in this case we don't have enough of a market record to properly gauge the desirability. Hope this helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
