3/18/13 Goodwill Finds - 6 Sterling Silver Goblets @ $3 each!!!

[treasurefiend]

Went to the local Goodwill shop for a shot glasses or beer mugs but I always keep my eye open for silver and today I scored!!! The cashier said "oh those look nice" and I said "yea look closer right here' (to the sterling mark) and she said "OHHH f%#@ they are not priced correctly" LOL I still got them for $3 each. I don't have a scale but they feel a tad bit heavier than a silver dollar so AWESOME!!!

*UPDATE* I just weighed the goblets and they each weigh 110g so all 6 equals 660grams and I looked online for the scrap silver price and its $568!!!! Not bad for $18 spent at the local Goodwill.

Nice find! Are you going to donate any back to Goodwill?

No offense, but why would someone do something like that? He paid what they were marked, supporting Goodwill already. He owes them nothing, and he shouldn't feel guilty about it either IMO.

Agree. If you score a jackpot at an auction that no one else had any knowledge of, you don't share your profit margin with them.

Nice score!!!

(Next time don't point out the hallmarks to the cashier! D'OH!!)
