Finally starting to sort some pots ...

[Jimdavis]

finally starting to clean and sort the pots I purchased. A little overwhelming to say the least. Doing some research on the stamps that are on the clay ones but it's dam hard when you don't even know what ways up or down lol and I know the glazed ones are mass produced but there are some really beautiful glazes on some.

Nothing like going all in!
What are you going to do with all those?

 

[Jimdavis]

Looking to sell most of them once I have them cleaned and sorted but I'm keeping a good amount for my trees @amcoffeegirl

 

[Victorim]

Wow, how and what did you pay?

 

[Josh88]

That's quite a haul! Where did you come across all of these?

Ah penny's droped now.. you lucky devil

 

[rodeolthr]

Do you feel that you may be able to palletize these so as to make a bulk shipment cross country?

 

[Jimdavis]

I bought them at an auction last weekend. And if I told you what i paid you would cry lol and not wanna buy them off me ... let's just say it was a very very good deal

 

[Jimdavis]

Pretty much a steal

 

[VAFisher]

I'll take the 4th one down on the left...

 

[Jimdavis]

I don't think I'm going to sell them in bulk @rodeolthr i wanna see what I have first and take my time I'd like to make a slow quarter rather then a fast nickel

 

[0soyoung]

Has anybody turned you in for being a pot dealer, yet?

 

[Jimdavis]

This one @VAFisher

 

[Jimdavis]

What would you say that's worth in this market @VAFisher like if you went to a bonsai nursery what would he be charging ? Pots probably circa 1970 75

 

[Victorim]

We could play the price is right! Ok I'll go first.. 1.5k!

(What Jim payed)

 

[Jimdavis]

I cannot disclose what I paid @Victorim lol but in all fairness what would you guys pay for something like this you can even low ball me I can read through the b.s

 

[Victorim]

I'm only playing about and love a deal story.. Hell I work for Chris dawson!

The pot in the close up would be £10 to £15 eBay uk assuming standard China stuff and size.

 

[Jimdavis]

Thats what I thought @Victorim itcdoesnr have a stamp and it looks a little bit rushed lol but I do have about 150 200 of them in every glaze imaginable

 

[AZbonsai]

If they were easy to sell I guess they would have been gone .
I will take a pallet when you get them sorted out

 

[Jimdavis]

I got them last Saturday and worked 70 hours this week so haven't had a second to even look at them all let alone try and sell them ... I have a few local contacts and will have them sold shortly @AZbonsai thanks for your insight
