<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnnycb09, post: 185127, member: 27&quot;]I see AF&#039;s point,but I do feel there&#039;s wiggle room in interpreting it. On one hand,a name can very much help an items value,providing said item is actually worth researching. I see so many posts on different boards where its obvious that items arent particularly special or even that old,and it does get a little tedious at times,but I look at it this way,everybody starts out not knowing a lot and thats how you learn. </p><p>The more I learn,the less I know ! When I started online boards I smugly thought I knew a lot about antiques,then I rapidly realized I knew very little.</p><p><br /></p><p>It does seem like more and more people arent interested in the history of an item,only the value. I chalk that up to the never ending economic issues. But they may just get a spark from learning about an item,and thats a good thing. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
