Carrollton China

[Pelady]

I know China is down.  What can you get for cup & saucers? Only 5 cups, extra saucers is it better to sell as group or or individually? 

Carrollton China Co., East Liverpool, Ohio, established 1903 - was one of the eight major American china production firms to merge in 1929 under the American Chinaware Corporation due to the rapid decline in the industry during the Depression. The merger was short lived and closed it's doors in 1932.

Hi Pelady,

I did a quick look around on a few sites, and most people are selling them individually.  Here is such a link with your teacup and saucer pattern:

Hi Pelady!

Unfortunately china sales are down and have been down - even for high end porcelain.

Totally agree with SophieMarie that selling by teacup/saucer is the way to go and the average pricing for a cup such as yours is $12 to $18 for the pair.  You could even pair the extra saucer with a set and ask for $20 - $22.  Even at those great prices consumers aren't consuming a whole lot!   Best of luck on your sales!

I would list them individually with one good pic similar to the link !!  Then work on the "mix and match" by taking pics mixed with other complimentary pieces !! Take pics of those as well !!  Sometimes you have to put an idea in the buyers head !!  Show how they can be used !!
