Garage Saling, Finally
« on: June 15, 2015, 04:24:02 PM »
Haven't been able to get out lately, but went garage saling on Saturday. Got lucky!! Found a No 2 Griswold block logo and a No 12 small logo at the same house, then got a No 5 Griswold large block 2 sales later. Ended with a WagnerWare no 8 with heat ring, nice user. All in the soup as we speak.

Never had a No 2 or the 12 before. Grand total expended: $13.

Thanks, From what I've seen, if the 2 turns out in good shape, it's worth 300-400 and the 12 is around a hundred. The 5 should be around 30 and the Wagner around 40-50. Should turn a nice profit, not to mention the rescue as they told me these skillets were headed to the dump--what a shame that would have been!

Absolutely, as soon as they're finished. Lots of gunk on them, I've got 6 skillets in the soup right now, then de-rust them, then the first seasoning. I'll try to do the 2 and the 12 first, so I can get the pics out there.
