    Sterling silver today at the sales

    Todays sales were very slow. Made my usual route in record time with very little luck. I decide to hit one more before I called it quits. My luck turned, big time. This woman had a huge collection of native american silver. Many signed, one name was Tommy Singer. She said her mom owned a store in New Mexico and alot of it was from the Crosby Collection. ( I looked him up, well known dealer). She doesnt wear silver and her kids didnt want it. Long story short, I bought $100 worth cuz thats all I had on me. I took about 1/4 of it. I came home and told my wife about it. She decides to check it out. When she got there they wee closed up, garage door still open, She knocks and the lady and her talk for about 15 minutes. My wife ask how much for all of it. She says 100 takes it all. I got 1 bag and she comes home with 2 more. In total about 220 pieces. Bolo ties, necklaces, earrings, etc... I already have the frog on Ebay!

    Thanks Creeper, I wanna get the most for each item. I dont know much about Native American jewelry, so right now I'm googling everything I can so i dont burn myself on the prices. I also thought about consignment vs. Ebay. What a nice dilemma I'm in for a change .
