[QUOTE="Northern Lights Lodge, post: 1524676, member: 13464"]I'm still working through disbursing a number of items from family estates. I had a very small booth at a local antiques shop; which closed last year when the owner retired... AND seemingly the market dried up. We only have "resale" shops locally now; which are mostly clothing and general brick-a-brack. I also sold through ebay for years...but that seemingly has dropped off also. I've tried Craig's list (not my fave way to go); and local garage sale sites...nice as they are free and easy; but items get buried by the next post easily...and I find that sales are very hit and miss. Is it just "me"... most of the stuff that I still have to unload falls into the late 1800's to mid-century range. A few pieces of glass, lots of linens, paper/cabinet cards... or is that kind of thing just not selling? If it IS selling... where are you having the best luck? What kind of things ARE selling? Would love your insight and suggestions! Leslie[/QUOTE]
