Hey, I found some stuff that I was thinking about putting on eBay, but I want to see if it would be worth it. Not that I expect to get rich or anything, just to see if it would be worth the effort (if the market is not already full and a small profit can be had). The first is these glass floats. I do not really know much about them. How much is a reasonable price for that sort of thing? There are 3 kinds:
Also there are some fake gold or gold plated Ku pendants, green eyes, about 2 inches long. What seems like a reasonable price for them? Thanks. |

It depends a whole lot on if the glass floats are old authentic floats or are the new ones that one can still buy for $10 and up, depending on size and how many floats are strung together. I would imagine the old ones are valuable, but I found a couple medium ones at a flea market once for $10 each. The old ones are usually thicker, are hand blown and show a place where the glass was sealed, and have heavier rope that is usually darker in color. |

Yeah, I guess these floats are new. The ropes look pretty pristine. Thanks. These Ku pendants are really sweet, but there are only about 6 of them. I am hoping that there may be more at the warehouse. |

Rather worryingly, there are people out there who collect glass floats Bog-standard round glass floats are pretty common as they washed Trader Woody |
