<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 2610004, member: 36"]Update: got up at OhLord'30 and was 4th in line. I watched through the window as the guys working the sale discussed the silver ... and marked it over melt. I found a teaspoon and some candlesticks that I'll break even on at least and two new "butt pads". The bits of gold jewelry and the flatware and compote were all sitting after 90 minutes. One silver necklace sold after I turned it down at the price marked. Maybe this crew will get the message. Stuff that's worth melt can't be sold for melt to people who will get LESS than melt for it when they flip it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
