Don't even get me started on the eBay suggested price! I deal in antiques and collectables mostly along with refurbishing and restoring antique oil lamps and there is 1 where the burner/wick holder alone sells used for £190 wholesale and then there is the reservoir and the column let alone the 25 hours of work I did on it to make it like new they suggested £75 for a lamp that sells between £435 - £695!!!!
My small items of antique silver are selling well but then again they are small and cheaper....but I am in it for the long haul...if someone gives me a reasonable offer I will take it....like an antique silver letter opener from America I had listed for £75....10 hours later someone offered £55 and I said why not as it didn't take a lot of my time to get it up to scratch. So I am fair with customers......unlike eBay!
