Anybody know of a service that buys china settings?
I have a china setting for 8 that includes extras like big bowls and such. I have been toting it around for years and never use it.

Anybody know of a place that would buy it off of me? Or maybe a consignment type place?

I need to unload this stuff, it is just taking up space.

3. There are even compaines that will list it on ebay for you.
For a nominal fee, of course. ;-)

You could also try antique consignment shops.

5. Replacements
There is an outfit called Replacements that buys and sells china and flatware. They are probably on the web.

hope that helps

7. Here are a couple of options....
Replacements.com is the major online source for china & glassware, new or old; here's their link for buying:

www.replacements.com/misc/packship.htm

Edish.com is run by David Lackey, who appears on Antiques Roadshow. Click on SELL; apparently, you can get an estimate.

www.edish.com/

I've never used either of these but they're worth checking out. Local consignment places might be OK; be sure they're reliable.
