The Quick And Easy Formula For Pottery Buying
Amy Metz
Did you know that pottery buying is actually an easy process?
People spend their weekends digging through all sorts of
rummage sales, yard sales, and specialty stores looking for the
perfect piece of pottery to go in their home. In fact, there is
an incredible home furnishings store in our city that has
simply amazing pieces of pottery that anyone would love to buy
(including us). However, we are constantly amazed by the large
amount of people who don’t have any idea what the different
types of pottery are and how to buy the right type of pottery
for their home. Pottery shopping is actually a fairly easy
process once you get the hang of it. Follow these simple steps
and you will be ahead of 95% of pottery buyers who end up
paying more and getting less.
1. Get educated on the different types of pottery. Can you tell
the difference between Stoneware pottery and Polish pottery?
Pottery comes in many different styles and can sell for all
sorts of different prices. Spend the $7 on an informative
pottery book from Amazon.com and truly take the time to learn
all about pottery and how to tell the good stuff from the bad.
2. Use the internet to familiarize yourself with pottery.Guess
who is the #1 used car dealer on the face of the earth right
now (and probably for the foreseeable future)? Ebay. Guess who
also has extensive pottery listings? That’s right: Ebay. Ebay
isn’t just for swapping beanie babies anymore. There are
immense amounts of people who sell things on Ebay including
lots of pottery. If you simply watch what is selling on Ebay
and the prices that they are going for, you can get a pretty
good idea of what the new and used pottery market is like
offline too. I’ve generally found most ebay items to sell for
at least a 25% discount to new offline merchandise.
3. Finally, you must compare pottery prices. Without proper
price comparison, the other two points are almost meaningless.
There are tricks to getting the best deal on pottery by
comparing prices and no one should buy any without price
comparison.
