[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 91638, member: 88"]I agree with Brad wholeheartedly!! :happy: I never dismiss any type of collectible item without first checking it out to see if there is any type of market for the item. When I first started doing ebay seriously I purchased a shelf lot of miscellaneous Christmas items at a local auction. One of the items on the shelf was a 1979 Hallmark ornament. It was Santa driving a train locomotive without its original box. I was going to give it to my youngest son who was born in 1979 right up until I did a search on ebay for the ornament. Turns out it was number 1 of the series & I sold it on ebay for $90 because I knew he would never appreciate it that much. ;) LOL I have also sold numerous Red Mansion plates. I actually had so many there for a while I decided to just not delete the listings or the photos from Auctiva so that they would be an easy relist if I came across any more, but I haven't seen any in quite a while now.
