I noticed in one of the threads last week that you bought a Singer featherweight. Was it in a case that had been papered with contact paper? If so I was the one who put it on the auction.

I had about 8 things on that wouldn't sell on ebay. Grossed $440.00, of course the Singer was half of it. The otheres were all small items.

Hey! What auction are you two talking about? I'd like to get rid of some stuff that I haven't been able to sell on Ebay. Can you share the info?

Thanks Lucy! Maybe I'll make it down during the summer. I love the central coast. That is where I'd love to be living. I am on the SF peninsula. I think you are about a 3 hour drive from me.

Lucy, Yes, They charge a commission, it varies from 20 to 30 % of the selling price. The rest of the things were smalls. I had 4 Hummels, a Nippon Tea Setm A Satsuma Tea Set, a Heisey creamer & Sugar & a Griswald scone set that dated to early 1900's. I don't very often take things to auction, but when I can't sell them on eBay then I want to turn over my inventory & get some new things.
