In ohio, where to sell?

Have a boatload of decanters and other types of things along those lines. Most are complete sets, six or eight pieces at a time, have baskets full of the lids, the ball with the spike Style or the ball with the cork style bottom, all made of glass. These are things that my grandmother had from her parents etc. We're talking 20s through the'60s. These have been around.

Truth is, don't have any place to put them and can't just have these things sitting in the way. I didn't know if anybody knew a safe way to sell them, when I say there's a lot I mean there are much more than a dozen or so. Like hundreds and don't want anybody coming to the house for them or wanting to buy just one or two here need to sell them as sets. It's way too many to sell online etc. Any advice would be very much appreciated! And no I don't know the history or maker or value on every single one of them.

We tried to have them appraised and every local appraiser just circle talk and wouldn't actually say anything. Images are of the cheaper ones we were told.

 

find an auction house in your area , who'll take the whole kit & caboodle.....

it's the only way I know of to clean house !

 

I didn't know if anybody knew of one that was on a store had any experience in the past with any auction houses like that? I only spoke to one and they told me they weren't interested because antiques are worth money lol

 

I don't understand your post. Are you saying that you contacted an auction house and they wouldn't take your items? because the are not worth money?

I live in Central Ohio and know of several auctioneers who would auction these off for you. They usually take a commission of 50% of the auction price. But if you want to be rid of them quickly, that's a good choice.

Another thing you can do is go into an antique mall and see if they'll put you in touch with a few of their glass dealers who might make an offer to buy all or just some of them.

Where in Ohio are you located? You don't have to be specific if you don't want to say exactly.

 

Most of those appear to be cruets, not decanters.
