We have the opportunity to list on ebay some of the better and best antiques acquired by a discerning antique dealer over the last 30 years. These items are real antiques, mostly American Victorian, and they are authentic and are as described. We understand the stressed market at this time and are pricing these antiques at, below or near cost going back at least 15 years. This is a sale of a collection of antiques and it is not a wholesale discharge--research comparable merchandise please. We are offering for bid an antique Victorian silver plate sugar stand in a thistle pattern. This stand is approximately 7 1/2" tall and in excellent condition with no faults. It has a consistant tarnish but we do not polish up pieces prior to selling them. There are five hallmarks with the middle one being D&S and the numbers 9632. Because of the quality of this antique, and increasing rarity, it will be necessary to pack this antique silver plate in a new 14" cube cardboard box requiring a packaging material cost to the bidder of $10 for box, rigid styrofoam, foam peanuts and bubble wrap. USPS requires three inches of adequate packaging material surrounding the item or they will not honor their insurance in the event that they damage items insured. We ship by priority mail insured with delivery confirmation. We do not charge for getting these shipping materials, packaging these items or driving to the Post Office, and we do not pay for packaging material that you will receive these antiques in and have in your possession. We have shipped over 1000 antiques all over this country with never any damage. These are great antiques and should be respected as such. Buyer pays S/H/I. Please feel free to email inquiries. Thank you.
