<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 52030, member: 78"]Hi Brad,</p><p> Amen to what you said. I have to learn to go with the changes. I used to say "When Tupperware becomes collectable I am getting out of the business." Well low and behold. The Moma in NYC has early Tupperware as part of their collection. Also I have sold several pieces of Tupperware for over a hundred bucks. The tip is to buy the stuff that is NOT marked Tupper. When the man started the company the first two years he made the stuff it was just marked Ware. When he started to make money with the "parties" he added Tupper to the items. The iconic salt and pepper shakers on the tripod holder bring nice money. My highest priced item was a set of measuring spoons which brought 125 bucks. The mid century modern stuff was my downfall.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
