Called Pumpkin Amish Butterprint #442 Orange. As soon as I saw it I was like this has to be worth something. Paid $4.99 for it. I don't expect this to be up on ebay very long they seem to sell very fast in this condition.

Nice going I wish you luck. Can you post your ebay user name ?
 
Nicely done listing... :occasion14:

Gare, if you look up "Pumpkin Amish Butterprint" on eBay you'll see it listed.
 
I tried looking this up on Ebay but there are so many and i never did find one on there from Texas

kool deal/ i never would have known that one.
 
Wow, no telling how many possible valuable pieces like that I may have passed by in all the years I've hunted thrift stores. Guess I'll keep an eye out for old pryex if nothing else.

This is how I find things. I'm 57 years old. If it looks like something from when I was a kid, in the cart it goes until I can price it. If it does not make sense it goes back on shelf. If it has a modern barcode the ones with the 3 longer bars one on each end, one in middle, back on the shelf it goes. The older bar codes had all the same length lines. If it says "Dishwasher Safe" or "Made in China" 99% of the time back on the shelf it goes.

China actually sells a lot of things made to look vintage so don't be fooled. If it looks vintage and says made in China it's most likely not.

Pyrex brings a good dollar in the auctions also. Still some room for the online sellers to resell.
