[QUOTE="MrNate, post: 662713, member: 5515"]Hi and good evening everyone, I have a good find to show from this week. I managed to find this nice heavy Sterling Porringer Bowl at a store I visit almost daily. It had obvious marks, in an obvious location, but I visit frequently so it probably just got on the shelf earlier in the day and no one had flipped it over. Price was $3. I've also decided to make a fresh start on my collecting. I love the collection that I've built, but I also need to clean up, reset, and start again sometimes in my life. Tomorrow I'm taking my entire collection to an auction house to give it a new home. I'm quite certain to start my collection and build it up again, but it's a good time for me to cash out and start again. I have no clue what I'll get at auction, but I am 100% certain it will be far more than I paid, although not necessarily reflective of the effort it took to find it all.
