Hi Robert

Given the value of these objects you should possibly consider to take them to an auction house
rather than sell them online yourself IMHO.  :)

Actually I'd tend to disagree with Dirk in this case. The main market for these is in the US, hence, if I were selling them I'd list them on Ebay and make sure I ticked the box for US site visibility. Also the auction houses in this part of the world aren't great when it comes to glass in my opinion. It might be a riskier option, but you should ultimately get a better price and the selling costs are much lower.

As always you'll need a good title and description and plenty of clear photos. You'll also need to pack them very carefully for international shipping...

Do proofread the ebay listing.

Hi Robert you could try this great new site once joioned it is free to list and for a one off payment you do not incur any final fees,  take a look below. good luck in your sales.
