I plan to open a tea shop so I was looking for cups I found a guy on FB market place and purchased 17 cups and saucers for only $3 each and now the guy is going to notify me whenever he gets cups in. Just one of my tea cup is worth $170.oo. Another worth $70 and another is $56. I studied and looked them up and I cant believe how much my cups are worth. Those 17 I got for $51 are all together worth $549.oo only 1 had a chip.

@@TeawithJann My mom had an antique shop and I loved wandering around with her looking for items. This was back in the 80's.

Definitely check out eBay sold items (not just what’s listed) to see what things are going for. I would look at listing them on eBay, individually, if you are looking at getting some money back. If you’re looking to just quickly unload them, you could sell them as a lot to a local-to-you reseller, but you would get much less. Feel free to send me an email if you want to discuss more. 💕 collections are wonderful until you move them along. It can come with emotions too. Wishing you the best of luck 💕

I also love turquoise antique tea cups. I recently came upon a rare find of a Double Warrant Paragon pristine cup and saucer in the "Easter Lily". Absolutely gorgeous. Very rare turquoise. Apparently that color is quite a collectable one. I have been collecting for over 40 years , not realizing the market value at all until recently and never found one like this. I paid $1.50 for the tea cup and saucer at a thrift store. I got it home and thought I would check out if it was of any value other than my own. OMG! This cup and saucer is worth nearly $2000.00 dollars! I nearly fell out of the chair! So Into my collection I dove, to see if I had any other Paragon. I discovered another beautiful set with a floating rose and found exact cup online for $ 950.00! Insane! Now I do not know what to do? sell or keep?

Yes. :) I'm more familiar with my antique Aynsley teacups, and they should match (it's the code for the pattern). It's a good way to see if a teacup and saucer have been 'married' and were not originally together, but might look good together. It's also a good way to search sites to find additional pieces to your set (if that's what you're trying to do). Sorry for the late reply - I've been on a bit of a break.

great video.. wondering if you could offer advice. i just purchased a Paragon "my valentine" tea cup and saucer. It is pretty rare and hard to find. in the description it said no chips, cracks etc... and i paid around 275$ Canadian for it. But when it came, it did have a "ding" or chip on the inside of the teacup, which i can see without any magnification needed. The seller said she didn't notice it.... and is offering me 20% off... i think this really devalues it but given its rarity, should I accept her offer or counter with something less... i am not sure how much a chip like that devalues the cup?? any thoughts?
@TeawithJann2 жыл бұрын
oooh this is definitely a difficult one to ponder. With vintage and antiques, it's hard to notice everything, I hope your seller did their best, but the price point is a higher one that should have an extra look through. Sorry this happened to you. I'm not familiar with that teacup, but you could do some searching to see if it's still worth it for you. I'm sorry I'm not more helpful on this matter and I wish this didn't happen to you. Take care and I hope this doesn't stop your love for shopping online for vintage and antiques. Take care.
