Message:: [QUOTE="johnnycb09, post: 135377, member: 27"]My city is so weird ! I live in n. fla ,with a burgeoning " hipster " scene , yet there are MCM treasures going begging . For instance Ive got a perfect murano mushroom glass lamp that Ive put on craigslist a few times with zero bites , yet I see the same lamps selling for quite a bit everywhere else . I did have one guy from Miami that wanted me to ship it to him , but shipping would have cost more than the lamp ! I see a lot of smalls selling ,but not the traditional ones like royal doulton ladies . I think the market here is in flux , the older folks don't buy as much and the younger ones don't have the money . The most successful antique mall here mostly sells in the under $20 range. Stuff like dishes and signs , but furniture of all types just sits .Of course this is all based on my observations , I could be wrong . I have about a dozen places I frequent , of all levels , and this has been my experience . Had I the money I could make a killing on " brown " furniture , lots of good antiques in the $2-300 range . But Id have to sell elsewhere, it just isn't moving here .[/QUOTE]
