Picked these up here on ebay for a couple of bucks. Bottom left one is 10k gold Lambda Chi Alpha frat pin with a gamma sigma guard. Bottom...
Oh, I wasn't questioning the "diagnosis" of silverplate - though I probably didn't convey it, I was questioning what I was doing wrong in my...
Okay, gotcha. I should have known that. The area that I put acid on turned pale which I've seen before on non-silver tested items.
Okay, I schedule the auction for this evening. It's not yet live. Do you think this title covers it? LOL. Vtg Ribbed/Hoosier Glass Flower...
There are mold marks on the right and left side, on the outside. They seem sanded down somewhat, as they're smooth feeling, but they're not...
A few people have suggested that it could be a test tube holder, but glass against glass to me doesn't seem like the wisest idea. They're much...
Ok, I took a knife to the back of this thing (silverettes, please forgive me), and I'm wondering what's up with this reaction? Is it just from...
I meant to take it with me over to my mother's house yesterday to see if she had some lipsticks to try, but I forgot. I'm quite sure she has...

Well, no one there had any different ideas than have been tossed around here (except someone mentioned a candle form), so in the next couple of...
Oh my, how horrible! I would have been crushed if someone did that to me. How heartless. :(
Wow, wow, wow! How exciting!
Wow, the more I look at those marks, the more I wonder how you found those given that quite a bit of the mark on mine is worn. That is amazing!...
Thank you Susan! Hmm, both of those say silverplate, but testing gave me an unmistakably sterling result. I made sure to scratch on the edge a...
My mom gave me this clamshell dish to sell, and since I assumed it was silverplate, it's been sitting in a pile for quite a while. Much to my...
The bracelet might sell on its own merits, though without a name getting it seen is the hard part. I think it's pretty - it's just hard to get...
Okay, I posted to the first group. I haven't joined the 2nd group yet, but I'll go check it out now.
Messi, you're too funny! I might try posting it on that facebook page that figtree posted. I can't believe we've come up with so many...
