Submitted by Steve One question we receive often is along the lines of "How valuable is my china?" Many of these people are just curious, but others are actively interested in selling their antique porcelain. Our site sells primarily new lines, with the occasional discontinued piece that we just happen to have in stock, but we can often direct people to someplace that deals in hard to find dinnerware, and those sources can help find what your pieces are worth.
If you are interested in selling your antique dinnerware, here is a handy link from a seller on eBay with tips for doing so. Some points of note:
Be very conscious of the condition of your china. Fractures, wear, scratches, even very minor defects in the glaze can have a significant impact on the value.
Research everything you can. Collectors are often more interested in the history surrounding your antique than the antique itself, so the more you know, the more it is worth!
