<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 354221, member: 36"]I do tell people about mistakes when I don't want the item. I went to one "estate" sale that was really a moving sale held by an estate sale company. Found zilch, but did see a nice porcelain horse head statuette. They had it priced at $4. I told the manager to stick another digit on there somewhere; it was a German brand whose name I forget. She repriced it at $34 and it sold about two minutes later. I've also paid church sales more than the asking price. Ordinary estate sales, consignments, antique stores etc... they're on their own.(LOL)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
