cent.107.jpgcent.101.jpgcent.109.jpgfound this at a garage sale , person wanted $1 i talked them down to 50 cents :) they didn't even know it was silver, its a really cool piece but what is it? any ideas anyone? i know its S. Blanckensee & Son Ltd 1926
 

You knew it was silver & you talked them down from $1, & your happy about this:icon_scratch:

Meet any kids with candy recently..........

I know exactly what it is, but will never share, a little like you:tongue3: (you want free advice from us but never shared any yourself???)

i see garage sailing as a form of treasure hunting, it wouldnt be much of a treasure hunt if i told the people what they had! i try to get my items as cheap as i can (and trust me its not often) if you goto to a flea market and see something for $1 that you could sell for $50 do you say hey buddy i will give you $50 for it? i doubt it! and i have tried answering some questions here but the truth is most the time i dont know what the item is and im not always able to sit down at the computer to be on this site (with only 1 computer between 5 of us) but if this is the treatment i get when i am able to get on then maybe its time to look for another site

Nice find! I believe I woulda whipped that dollar out quick and not said nothing. If you dug it up it woulda cost nothing.

Trust me you don't have a clue about how I operate (although it might be the last time I help you for nothing & now I have an hourly charge for your comment). I never rip anyone off, if they wanted a $1, I would have given them it. Maybe even a lesson & paid $10, but thats just me, call me crazy, who cares, I'm the one that sleeps with a smile.:headbang:

How many have you helped compared to me?

I couldn't care less how many 'nice finds' you have give me, do you have ANY moral standing?

Is that the Americian way? Or just the way I read it? I'm sure I've seen 'Porn Stars' which have some Moral/Business Sense.
