Ironlord, that was a per say "informational post" and thus I was just telling any viewer of said not to "overlook" such an item at a garage sale ...... but to "look items over" before you pass them by.
Ironlord, the wife purchased that basket from a good, now departed friend several years ago. Said friend and her husband were also in the "junk business" as we were and we were always buying n' selling thing to each other. Anyway, I believe the wife paid her $150 for the basket and she told the wife that it "booked" for about $300 at the time. Thus, that was a "dealer to dealer" transaction.
Anyway, out of curiousity, I Googled it and found this one ...... but it doesn't appear to have "cut" marks across the extent of the top edge of the handle like the wife's basket does. To wit:

I see there is one exactly like it on Ebay for $65. I tried to cut and paste, but it didn't work. Just search "Heisey" and it will come up.

Well .... uh, ...... not really.
and the sides have some ribs. There is ................... .. some fleabite size rough spots the corner/sides, otherwise the condition is good.
Fleabitten glassware does not a collector want.
Unless it is a piece of say Tennerton Glass.
