    Antiques For Sale?
    Hello.. I have quite a collection of antique Bissell sweepers and other memorabilia but would like to get rid of them. What and where would be the best place to get rid of them without losing my investment?

    I took a look at sold Bissells on eBay, and they do sell, although in the range of $5 to $100, and only 20 sold in the last 3 months. There is a market for them though.

    Learning how to sell on eBay is a lot of work - I've done it. Paying someone on commission will net you only about 60% of the sales.

    I don't think it's a good idea to sell anything online that can't fit into a box that's much bigger than a shoebox, because so much of the cost is shipping. Some things are better sold through ads in local papers.

    Not I. I have nothing worth enough for an auction house.

Does anyone know the time or value of what appears to be a horoscope charm belt? The charms are silver and hang from a silver linked chain. The chain seems too small to be a belt yet the closure doesn't seem to be that of a necklace either. I'm guessing it may be from the 50's?
