[QUOTE="scoutshouse, post: 56850, member: 267"]Not typical across the board - there were hundreds and hundreds of really junky pieces, but there were good pieces scattered throughout. Our head appraiser/pricer is very territorial - once I found the first Takahashi bird, everyone realized there were these little ringers around and she dropped everything else. Even so, it was too late to research them all, so she ended up grab bagging them :( they went for very little. I never did get a good look at those. I was too busy pricing pots and pans, but continued to comb through the rest of the house as the sale went on and found a second, older Takahashi on the last day of the sale (turned it over, of course). This Mena piece was showcased, no one bought it - now it's mine! haha I am going to sell it johnnycb09 - should I let you know when I post on eBay, or do people negotiate here? I don't know the rules.[/QUOTE]
