Pics are too large to download !! Couldn`t see the backstamp !!  Can you make them smaller and post one of the stamp on back ??

I am unsure if there are salt and pepper shakers, i will find out. If not what do you think a set like this would generally sell for?

mart: the pics are only 800 pixels.. they aren't very big. Here is a link to the stamp on the back: http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a272/kebz_01/_MG_2650_zps16f1005b.jpg

Edit: have since found out that there are no salt and pepper shakers.

When you are on dial up like Mart is...then anything is way too big....but that,s one of the joys she,s got with living in the Boonies.... ;D

that,s really not that a big deal...here in the UK...or to be more precise...here in Scotland...this set,providing there are no chips,or hairline cracks, might on a good day...with a strong wind blowing in the right direction..fetch..£150/200...but on a bad day...well, it would make a nice set for eating your Christmas dinner on...

The pixels are only relative to the camera`s size of the pic !! But the file size on your computer is much larger !! Thats where the problem is for me !! You can use your computer to resize the pic directly from your camera`s picture card or with the USB  !!
Any way !! Finally got to see the mark !! I think your set is from the Furstenberg factory, They used the F letter on marks !! The (usually three lobed) crown and cross is the universal symbol for Bavaria !!  Try going to replacements.com to match the pattern if you don`t know the name !!  It looks to be in excellent condition and I think it would make around $200. or a bit more if you can find a buyer !! Problem is,, not many buyers nowdays !!  If it were me I would put it on Craigslist since it would be local to you for $250. !!   If you get some interest in it you have a bit of room to deal !!

Yeah, if her feathers are anything like her Rhode Island Reds....then there ain,t much underneath...and she could do herself an injury if she were to get frustrated.... ;D ;D.

I am a photographer, i didn't just take these directly off my camera and upload them. When i resized them i should have changed the DPI to 72DPI for web viewing however i shoot RAW so they are most likely still at 240DPI which would increase the file size. Here i was thinking that Australia had the slowest internet in the world, i'm really surprised that in America they still have dial up.

Anyway thanks for all your help, i will try my luck in selling them and see it i get a bite.

America does have Broadband...but there are still places where, dial up is all they,ve got...and as Mart lives in the middle of nowhere...or the Boonies as she calls it...then anything is too big for her...
