How to Resell Antique Oil Lamps

Video Transcript

Resell value on your fluid lamps can vary. When you purchase and if you plan on collecting these and keeping these for years and years, you know that the value is going to increase. If you are purchasing and thinking about reselling, in a short period time you can hope that your value will retain itself and it should as long as the lamp stays intact and it isn't cracked or chipped or damaged in any way when you have it in your possession. So if you are going to collect for a long period of time, I would say that it is better because your collection will accumulate in value. If you are going to sell, there are a number of resources that you can sell your lamps at and one in particular would be in a shop like mine where a particular antique dealer collects or likes to sell 19th Century which I do. I have a number of them in my shop. I do like to buy them. That is one resource for you if you want to sell. You should look for a reputable dealer in your town or your area for a long period of time when you feel really comfortable with them. Other sources are your local auctions you can sell at but that isn't in itself is never reliable. It depends who is there. What other materials are being sold that night and it is very iffy as to whether or not if you get a solid return on your dollar so I would be very careful about making choices at auction galleries. Other choices might be on E-Bay where you actually watch and see if similar items you want to sell like something similar to this is selling on E-Bay and what it is selling for and that helps you to better make a choice as to whether or not you want to use a resource like that. Those are some recommendations on your resale on your fluid lamps.
