Question

I have an old fashioned typewriter. What is it worth?

Community Answer

Find out how much others of a similar brand and style have gone for and compare their condition to yours, then use your own judgement. Check eBay. Or if you want a professional opinion, you could get it appraised.

Question

How do I find the worth of used sports equipment?

Community Answer

Check the brand of the equipment. Test the quality of the equipment. For example, if you're buying a basketball, bounce it and see. If you are buying a badminton racket, see how light it is and also how strong the wiring is. For actual cost values, do searches on sites that sell used sports gear, like eBay.

Question

I have an antique lamp and I have to sell it. And it is about approximately 100 years old with excellent condition. How can I sell it?

Community Answer

Sell it on eBay. Most people sell old collectables and other antiques on there. You could also try Craigslist. It's local and you can sell almost anything you want there. If you don't want to handle it yourself, sell it through an antiques dealer.

Question

I have a 45 dinnerware set/Christmas plaid made by Stokes. I can't find anything on it. I don’t think it’s ever even been used. What should I do?

Community Answer

Have you tried Replacements.com? They have info on a wide variety of china, etc. They sell replacements or additions to sets. But they also buy if you want to sell, and help find info on items if they don't have it. There's a place on their site where you can send them pictures of items you want to know about or sell.
