Never thought of it like that mart. Do you think the other items are as low as well 
As all items aren't doing well at all and all of them are at max 20% of the value i put on them after the research i did
i think iv made a big mistake here but at least ill get more than the dealer offered and its only half of the items we need to shift
so ill start the next lot a lot closer to the valuation i found (researched).
how far off were the others
As the cigar box is a restoration job but is ivory. im wondering as i have a couple more ivory items and im wondering if a dealer would be better but 1 who specialises in ivory its self. But with it them being from 57-58 will they touch it???
as iv read it has to be before 1900 to be legal in the uk
Thanks Trev

Well we've decided to chuck it on flebay as we came to a dead end and my lady wants her office back 
(spare room)
ive started it at £50 do you think this is about right for a come get me price. As my old dear thinks its abit high.
also flebay for some reason wont let you sell ivory items if they are pre 1900 but this table as far as we have got is 1930's+
i thought pre 60's was the uk law??? ive had to list it as INLAID INDIAN TABLE can anyone think of any better way to advertise it
thanks trev

Hi all my nan is down sizing her property. Anyway she had taken most of her belongings she dint require to the local carboots 
except the furniture items and my granddads interesting items (his war items and items he collected on his travels (he was a deep sea diver)). Im trying not to think about the items she had taken the carboots NANS LOL. So i convinced here to phone afew dealers up to get them have a look 1st but nans been nans she only phoned 1. luckily i was there when he arrived well putting kettle on. She let him in he had a quick glance and said to her ill give you £200 for the lot as it would take him a while to move on. I hit the roof and made him leave. How can they pick on such vulnerable people is be hound me. So ive filled my spare room with all her items to do abit of research first ive done most of the items (i must say its very addictive im loving it) BUT ive gotten a few hair ragging items and i was wondering if any one can help.
Here is the 1st item
thanks trev
