Hi! I can't get a clear picture to post of the Hallmark BUT maybe someone here recognizes what I'm describing. This flatware set has a mark of the lion but the lion is standing inside what looks like a Calligraphy type letter "T". This isn't the cougar head it is the long body lion standing up and facing right. It could be a "J" and not a T. After that mark is "Pat 1924" then the basic capital letter "T". Any help would be appreciated. I've been to several websites and keep getting more...

Hi all- Asian categories and have a couple questions for any buyers or sellers of those items: Asian? Most other websites and offline galleries do not make the distinction, and I can't really see a big difference in the items that are listed in the two categories on eBay. Is it a matter that items in Antiquities are supposed to be older than the items in Antiques? Would it be better to have the two categories combined so a buyer could browse through all vases (for example) in both...

Seems people love to store great old magazines and papergoods in damp basements resulting in mildew. Not only will it totally ruin the item eventually, but I'm allergic to molds & mildew. Is there any way to get rid of it? Appreciate any and all suggestions! Thanks!

I recently acquired an item I think is brass (well it's gold in color anyway) and it has some greenish discoloration in a few places. Is there anything I can do about this? Does this mean it's not brass? PLEASE HELP!!! It's so pretty otherwise.

Given the questions and concerns that I've seen here and there on the boards about moderation and Boards policy, I recently spent some time in a Q & A session. As this was an impromptu, informal gathering, it did not involve much prior notice. It was a productive conversation, but I think there are still some more questions and concerns that could be addressed. And I would like to open this up for additional input from those who weren't able to join us yesterday. To read the earlier...

Hi, Given that there has been a fair number of questions pertaining to which pink manages which board, I wanted to offer a quick clarification. In the past when the community was smaller than it is today, each board was managed by a particular Community Development pink (staff member). As the Community grew, this became less and less feasible. Although you may see posts from particular pinks, there is no longer a particular pink managing each board. We have continued to develop...

Thanks to the extensive feedback we received from you on the Item Specifics/Product Finder for Folk Art and Primitives, we will be adding “style” to the Item Specifics/Product Finder, allowing sellers to assign a particular style to their item and buyers to search for their items by the same. We received many suggestions from you on what values should be included in the “style” attribute and after carefully considering everyone’s input, we have decided to go with these...

Dear Antique Furniture Buyers & Sellers, We are rolling out a new Product Finder for Antique Furniture in early May, and I would like to solicit your feedback on some of the values you might use to list / search for furniture. In case you’re not familiar with the Product Finder, here is a quick overview: The Antique Furniture Product Finder will enable sellers and buyers to describe / search for furniture by multiple characteristics, rather than just Product Type and Age as we have...

Hi folks, It's your Antiques category manager again, looking for more feedback. We have noticed that the "Other Antiques" category has gotten very large (10,000+ items) and continues to grow. We don't think that this is an ideal place for sellers to list, as it's a lot less likely that a buyer would browse for items in a huge, general category like "Other Antiques" than in any of the other categories in Antiques. So I'm trying to figure out why a seller might list in "Other Antiques"?...

Hello folks, Inluding images in your posts is a very useful, fun tool to use on our boards. I wanted to offer these how-to's for members who are new to the boards and would like to do this. To add an image in your post: Step 1 - First, you will need to put your picture on the internet somewhere. Many ISPs give their customers webspace as part of their package, so you should check to see if you already have space. If you don't, I'd recommend checking with the Photos/HTML board to...
