<p>[QUOTE=&quot;clutteredcloset49, post: 1956824, member: 85&quot;]The learning comes in before you make your posting.&nbsp; When you find something similar. Then you start researching what you found:</p><p>1. To see if it is indeed what the person from ebay, etsy, or sold on worthpoint said it was.&nbsp; You need to know if the person knew what they were talking about.</p><p>Many times they don&#039;t. </p><p><br /></p><p>2.&nbsp; Learn to do research from reputable sites.&nbsp; You might want to start brushing up on some of these just so you have places to investigate.&nbsp; Also, when they reopen, go to your library and start checking out books in the areas you are interested in.</p><p><a href="https://www.antiquers.com/threads/glass-pottery-marks-reference-library.430/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquers.com/threads/glass-pottery-marks-reference-library.430/">https://www.antiquers.com/threads/glass-pottery-marks-reference-library.430/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I realize you want to participate and help.</p><p>However, when you post inaccurate info to people who are new to the board and you are the first to respond.&nbsp; The newbie takes it as true and may never come back to see corrections from other boardies.&nbsp; The newbie goes off to ebay with your inaccurate info and uses it to post a listing, which in turn gets copied and now we have a spread of bad info.&nbsp; Maybe somehow that bad info gets linked to Antiquers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
