I have to blog this because I was so excited this morning when I saw this amazing-ness on the Estate Sale website! I HAVE NOT bought these pieces yet, these are the picture that came up in the preview for the Estate Sale shop that I frequent! They will go on sale Saturday at 9am, and you better believe I will be there. I will show you the pictures and then let you know what my game plan is:
Wow. Yes, I could barely believe my eyes either, all this Pyrex in one shop! You better believe I am getting there at 5am to be number one in line! This is my last weekend before school starts to do some major treasure hunting, and I think the thrift/estate gods were calling to me.
There is one problem however. This particular estate sale shop has had some high prices on Pyrex lately. I mean $26 for a dishwasher damaged set of 3 daisy bowls kind of expensive... So this will all be based on if I can get these for a good enough price, however, there are at least a few I will pick up for my own collection of black and white Pyrex. So I spent the better half of the day researching, researching and researching some more, I actually typed up a spreadsheet with pictures of every piece that was shown on the website and estimated at about what price I could re-sell at. Then, I classified each piece as either "YES" (buy), "YES (4 Me)", "Maybe", and "NO".
Here is what I am majorly interested in in no particular order:
-Pretty much ALL of the mixing bowl sets
-The Kim Chee casserole (Picture 6)
-Bramble, Mod Kitchen and Gold Acorn from Picture 8
-Constellation and Gold Acorn from Picture 9
-All of the dishes from picture 10, the top 3 for my collection!
-Zodiac and Gourmet from Picture 11
-Rooster and Gold Acorn from Picture 12
-Grapevine (?, the top one with the beautiful lid) from picture 13
-The large Verde bowl and the Old Town Blue Napkin Rings from Picture 14
I will have to be very picky because this means a large investment on my part. It also means lots of listing on ebay. I have decided that listing Pyrex on ebay gets it sold a little faster than on Etsy, plus Etsy seems to be overpriced! I will updated you guys on which items I bought, and if any of you are looking for one of these pieces I will give you a deal!
Any advice on which pieces are MUST HAVES, please, share your insight, I always appreciate it!
Good night! -Chels
Oh, my - that's exciting!! Pictures 11-13 look quite interesting - the casseroles are harder to find than the bowls - one thing about the Cinderella bowls - they take up so much room..... So, I'd definitely be dreaming about the casseroles - good luck!!!
