My dear friend, Sharon, has kept all the wares from her deceased husband's flea market in storage for 14 years. She didn't know what to do with it when he died so she rented a large storage unit and filled it completely full. She paid the rent every month for 14 years with no kind of return, then she was notified that the rent was going up and she was contemplating retirement soon. She finally took it out of storage and, temporarily, put it in one of her sons' barn, intending to have an auction. Two different auctioneers were not interested. They want big stuff, not collectibles. We have sold about $1400 of Fire King jadeite in a little over a week with at least several hundred dollars worth left. I haven't seen most of the other stuff, but there are three banana boxes full of silverware - from sterling to plate to stainless, some of which is scarce. There are also barrels full of 70's and 80's clothing. Watch our Ebay for some interesting finds.
