Probably see car51 on Antiques Roadshow when he finds it is an art treasure.

We've all seen those; a lady buys a $2 mirror at a flea market and it is a Tiffany worth $42,000

I saw a guy with 3 Tiffany lamps that he knew were fakes but took them to Antiques Road Show and they were not only real but inherited them from grandparents.

Ebay Link

That's the asking price. Way too often I see people asking sky high prices for antiques. It's anybody's guess what the real value is.

Not for me. My idea is to get rid of stuff I don't need or want any more and get it into the hands of someone who wants it. I gave away all the money I collected last time to Fort McMurray fire relief.
