Most of the time I can not picture what you are talking about. Isn't one of the objects of this website to educate us, or am I just wasting my time trying to figure out what is being talked about.

She once wrote that a peafowl decorated spatterware piece was made in Reading, PA. My query to her as to where the factory might have been located in Reading, as my grandmother also lived there and once owned several pieces, was answered with a suggestion I pay her to appraise my grandmother's pieces. Do I have "STUPID" stamped on my face? Her claim to fame is "I am an honest appraiser because I never buy anything". After placing an outrageous value on an object the owner will only find future buyers are seemingly trying to rip them off when offering a real and fair price. Her tactics are the real "rip off"".
