<p>[QUOTE="Angelina Dugo, post: 241957, member: 4582"]Just saying 30 years ago as a roundabout number. As some of you may know, my mother-in-law passed away and we inherited all of her items and antiques. Her and her husband used to collect antiques in the 1970s through 1990s I believe. (I'll get a better time period from my husband). Anyway, we brought more things home and dusted them off and started finding out what they are. Some of the items still have the tags on them from when they purchased them at the antique markets back in the day. For instance, I have four antique ice cream scoops and one of them had a price tag for $60 and the other one had a price tag for $40. As you guys have been saying, I should look at eBay sold listings for the values of items. When I pull some of these up, they tend to be around $10 in value. So what I'm wondering is, because of today's technology age in the availability to find antiques and values online, did that drive down the values that some of these antiques used to be sold for?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
