Milk glass vase is likely 60`s,,Goblets look like 40`s He has $6. each on the goblets and I think he has 6 of them !!  Offer him $20. or $25. for all 6 then get him to throw the vase in,, its only $3. I think  !!  But those are worth buying !!  The Guy and the cart is what I called the brass item,, $10. isn`t bad for it if its a decent size.
Remember on almost everything you look at,, the bottom is as important as the top !! It tells a lot !!

ok great thanks. i'll have to post more pics if i purchase more.

whats deal with the green $60  item. what is is and whats the value?

Vase looks like teak and probably a souvenier sold at tourist shops from some of the islands !!   Glass and ceramic art glass ashtray !!  Value of vase maybe $10.00  ashtrays are not selling well right now,, about same price !!

good call on the vase. there is one selling just like it for $12.

Can`t see the vases well but they didn`t impress me,, the color isn`t important,, what it is and what it is made of and the mark is what we need !!  Best I see of the glass items are the milk glass goblets and the vase !!  That ash tray would be worth buying if its cheap enough !!  And the brass item depending on its size and where its from !! It may be marked on bottom !!

Hey thanks. Ill have to look and see if ican find markings on the drink/smoke set.

I might buy the goblets if I can get them for around $10. I might take a stab at the field glasses for $10.

The 40's vase I think I'm going to buy.

How about the tea pot? Can u giive me any ideas without the bottom marks? He only wants $15.

How about the guy and the cart?

What's the description of the 3 piece item? How about those various vases in the back for $1 and value there?

The insides of the 3 piece set had kind of a teal green. Similar to the outside color. I don't know if it was a ceramic or a plastic. It was kind of an eye opener when opened. I rmrember thinking...man that's an ugly color(in a good way) haha.

I didn't get a chance to get a pic of the bottem. I don't really know the fellow. So I'm not sure I want to keep running over there to take pictures. I think he wanted $15 for the 4 plates 3? Cups and the pot.

i have the option to buy these from the son of a retired military gentleman.

is anything of value? the 3 piece green item is interesting. the part behind the 2 is a copper ash tray.
