Guest guest Posted October 24, 2001 Report Share Posted October 24, 2001 Debbie if its in good shape, that is a great price . These things are treasures to find. Too bad I dont have room for one . I love antiques too but I dont share decorating tastes with my hubby unfortunately. Shaye Re: antiques I saw some of our members talking about shopping for a Hoosier. I am looking for one too-I have a house full of antiques that belonged to my mom's grandmother and my mom is now 85 so some of them are OLD.I even have been having fun picking up antique bars of soap as my kitchen is sort of a General store. I have been sort of self-schooling on prices etc. especially for pieces I already have to know their worth. I saw a beautiful ok Hoosier up in bouckville with Bob when we were out yesterday and wondered if $1,000 is a high price?I have no ides as I just stared looking. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2001 Report Share Posted October 24, 2001 Im no expert, but I have seen prices on some and Yes I think I would ask santa for it . Yea our decorating mix makes an interesting combo too. At least we dont have the 70/80's black light posters anymore .

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2001 Report Share Posted October 25, 2001 Deb--- at least YOURS has a reason. If had his way he'd still be " Early College Student. " When I met him ---- NO LIE -- 99% of his furniture was....boxes! Carboard boxes. Stacked. Everything he owned fit neatly into the back of his little Nissan truck. > I know what you mean, but I think I may be winning over here...he is early > American Firefighter(hard to have a romantic Bedroom with rechargeable > flashlight & monitor on the nightstand with all of the other > parapharnelia...> > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 25, 2001 Report Share Posted October 25, 2001 Shaye, Do you think that is a good price? I have been looking for two years and haven't even seen anything priced that high since I first started looking. Mostly in the $500-800 range. I love the thrill of the treasure hunt!

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2001 Report Share Posted October 25, 2001 Well, like i said, im not expert on them but I have seen them go for that. Nice oak ones. I did see a painted not so great looking one sell for about 400ish once. Also it depends on how much you fall in love with a peice as to what it is worth to you. I will say no more, my foot keeps getting stuck in my mouth.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2001 Report Share Posted October 25, 2001 Shaye, You can say anything you want! Prices are different all over the place and I am by no means an expert either. I have wanted one for so long though and have been looking for one in the hopes of someday having one...the most expensive one I saw recently was at Liberty Hollow-it was a piece of junk and the woman wanted $750 for it...Liberty Hollow also had three other nice ones that were around the $450-550 range. Your opinion is just as valid as mine...and like you said, it all depends on how much you fall in love with something...maybe that's my problem-I let one get away in Old Forge about three years ago and nothing has screamed "Get me!" since.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2001 Report Share Posted October 25, 2001 Dee, Oh I know what you mean! I hate when that happens. So many times I could kick myself for not jumping on something right then and there. I just put a batch of soap to bed. I chunked up some red MP and put in a green CP mistletoe soap. Cant wait to see how it turns out! Shaye -I let one get away in Old Forge about three years ago and nothing has screamed "Get me!" since.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 Think about that one - the implications of > thrift stores, tag sales, garage sales, anything you buy - could be moldy, new > or old. But especially, old. Sure, anything and anywhere has the potential to have been exposed to mold. Bookstores -- think of warehouses of bound paper sitting on palettes. How about imported items in general? Almost every commodity we use anymore is coming from the third world, so not only is it being shipped in the hold of a boat, what assurance is there that proper warehouse storage of shoes from China is happening? When I finally abandoned my home and belongings, I thought that I would go camping, get well, and be over this. However, what I found was that my reactions to other environments was greatly increased after detoxing. Now, almost a year later, I am only beginning to see any reduction in my toxicity, but this IS happening slowly. Where this spring I couldn't tolerate my brother's house even overnight, now I am able to handle it for two days before the familiar symptoms come creeping in -- myalgias in my extremities, headache, grumbling intestines and looseness in my guts. I'm sure you can relate. We have to accept that not only are the items that we had exposed to the molds that we became toxic around are now going to cause reactions, but that our exposures have caused changes in out immune systems, resulting in Environmental Illness, as molds with pathogenic potential are distributed everywhere. I had a senior researcher at one of the nations leading immunological centers tell me that their best advice was to avoid mold -- this is functionally almost impossible. We have to take responsibility for our health and healing by communicating with each other on forums like this, and sharing techniques that are intuitively working. For me, I've been eating only organic foods, using every antioxidant I can get my hands on, taking an array of herbs with antifungal/antiviral actions, drinking only purified water, and doing yogic breathing exercises. This is in addition to making time for outdoor exercise several times per week. Last year at this time, I could barely handle going to the grocery store at times. This week, I ran 4 trail miles with 2,000 feet of elevation gain, hiked 8 miles at treeline the next day, and went climbing the day after that. I know I am lucky, and many here are in worse condition, but if we are going to get help with this, we have to count on ourselves. I have found the dietary and supplement protocols on www.Mold-Help.org to be very helpful, and have been proven to have been of benefit for the hundreds of people that the administration of that site have counseled. Besides being affected persons themselves, they are committed to change and self-help, as we have been largely abandoned by medicine and government. Everyone, have a good day. http://www.mold-help.org Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 I know a guy in France who mortally offended grandpa by removing the family heirloom antique bedset/chest of drawyers from his room. The thing had been scrubbed, vacuumed, wiped, cleaned, laquered... made no difference. This damn thing was killing him. So it had to go and no matter how he tries to explain it.., And on this board I've told the story of buying a new computer and getting slammed when I opened it up. I called the factory that assembled it and the 25 year old who worked there who had a dry hacking cough said " I can't understand it. I've been sick constantly since I started working here. I was always athletic, a real " Jungle Boy " and now I'm so tired I can hardly move " . I wanted to tell him but this was six years ago and at that time you couldn't even mention " mold " . Absolutely no one believed it back then. Times, they are a changin'. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
