My Copy Of Pride And Prejudice That I Found At A Used Book Store! It’s So Beautiful And In Really Great Condition Too. It Was A Gift To Someone In 1899!

Apart from the story written by Jane Austen this copy now has a story of its own. I don't know if it stayed with one family or changed many hands since 1899 but it would be an interesting thing to know.

I Have Been Searching For This Exact Ring For Over 20 Years! Finally Found On Ebay! Pictured Are The Ring Today And My Favorite Picture Of My Dad.
Every Few Months For The Last 16 Years Of Ebay Shopping, I Would Search For "White Gold Garnet Or Ruby Ring" And Every Variation Of Wording. My Grandma Bell Gave Me The Original Ring When I Was 13. It Was Too Large So My Dad Took It To The Jewelers To Have It Cleaned And It Was Resized. In The Time The Ring Was In The Shop, My Dad Passed Away Very Suddenly From A Brain Aneurysm. He Was 39 Years Old. I Got It Back The Day Of His Funeral. I Loved The Ring. It Had So Much Meaning For Me. Somehow I Lost That Ring When I Was 17. I'm Now 40. I've Literally Been Searching For This Ring For Over Half My Life! It's Even My Size Already, 5-3/4 So It Was Obviously Sized At Some Point. Makes Me Wonder If It Is My Actual Ring!

M O'Connell 3 years ago
A note for you: If you buy antique electronics do NOT under any circumstances plug them in until they are gone through by someone qualified to service tube equipment. Waxed-paper type capacitors tend to turn into resistors over time (allowing current through rather than blocking it) and can cause irreparable damage. Also, beware of "hot-chassis" designs and non-polarized plugs.

This Morning I Was Browsing The Fb Marketplace And Found A Listing From An Alice In Wonderland Pop Up Event In Boston That Had Finished Giving Away All Their Decorations And Props For Free

Honestly, I Imagined It Being A Foot Or Two High, Like A Door Stopper Type Of Decoration. When We Got There And I Saw A 4’ Rabbit I Coupdnt Stop Laughing.

Plus A Town Statue, A School Bus, A Fire Truck, A A Sail Boat.

Sounds like you might want to get it appraised. $50 used from 40 years ago is certainly worth much more today. Might want to put it on your insurance.

#85
I Saw This Piece Across A Crowded Marketplace And I Knew I Had To Have It. It's A Three-Piece Set Made From Majolica Ware Embellished With Gold, And Has A German Clock Built In That Has A Winding Mechanism. I Think It Was Likely Made In The 1910s (Dated 18 On The Back) And It Says Belgium, And Nothing Else. I Think It Was Likely An Afforable Sideboard Filler For A Dog And Flower Lover, Which Suits Me To A Tee. I Have Three Greyhounds, And Although This Looks More Like A Shepherd, I Think It's Great And Will Fit Right In
Debby Keir 3 years ago
Probably a Malinois - Belgian Shepherd. They weigh less and are built for agility for herding the sheep.

What I love about these stories is that it shows how secondhand shops cater to so many different styles and tastes. If your style is not on trend... Even better! Probably means you can find the things you like even cheaper! I think that at least half of my furniture is thrifted/pre-loved, and it makes me appreciate it so much more
Andy Frobig 3 years ago
Once I was looking for a cool chair to go with an antique desk. I walked into an antique shop where the owner was sitting by the door. He asked if he could help me find something and I said, "Yes! Stand up." He was sitting in a great old oak desk chair that I took home for $55. Later, I had an instrument repair shop on West 39th Street in Manhattan. The Hell's Kitchen Flea Market happened every weekend, one block west of my shop. I bought a LOT of instruments there, and plenty of cool old things for myself, like two uncut sheets of Wacky Packages stickers.
