<p>Wow, I wish LOL </p>
<p>No I just had a Snowman and a Santa. I sold mine Monday. A man bought both, not a collector, just someone who wanted them for Christmas decorations for his family. His kids are small and they loved them. I printed off care instructions and they had the original instructions included. I worried about shipping but they arrived safely :)</p>
<p></p>
<p>Now I have 46 lots of Table Top Role Playing Game books and one page adventures from the first RPG subscription service…</p>

<p>Unfortunately Icon lamps have really dropped in price over the last few years :(</p>
<p>Not sure why as they are nice ceramic USA made lava lamps from the 90's with dimmers and they were hand painted so no two are exactly the same.</p>
<p>I paid an average of $200.00 for each of mine and my snowman cost me $300.00 about 5 years ago.</p>
<p>It might be best to hold onto those lamps and sell them later when price/demand goes up. ( assuming that happens )</p>

<p>Some of those are really cool and some look a bit strange. I'll keep my eyes open. I may find more as we continue to clean out mom's attic.</p>

<p>Anything that lights up that is vintage</p>
<p>Everyone is different, and have different collection parameters</p>
<p>Myself, I'm a completist and try to get one of everything made and have almost 400</p>

<p>It is missing a few vintage lamps but you will get the picture</p>
<p>A good indicator is to go\ to ebay and click on advanced search and see what has recently sold.<br/><br/></p>
<p>Myself, i am missing a squiggle decorator, squiggle aristocrat (black), a Capri, a Alladin, and Continental</p>
<p>Attached are some vintage advertising</p>

<p>Thank you it's nice to know my estimates on pricing were reasonable. I have them relisted now as an auction instead of a buy it now. I'm not good with ebay, etsy I understand better so this is probably the last time I'll put them on ebay.</p>
<p>Do you think they would sell better if I listed them as a pair? I also need to find out about any special shipping instructions in case they do sell. They are in the original boxes with most if not all of the original packaging (Styrofoam inserts)…</p>

<p>Do you think they would sell better if I listed them as a pair? I also need to find out about any special shipping instructions in case they do sell. They are in the original boxes with most if not all of the original packaging (Styrofoam inserts) and I ordered boxes to fit over the boxes. I have bubble wrap, packing peanuts and cardboard inserts already since I'm used to shipping delicate items. Is there anything else I should know?</p>
<p>Thanks again, I never know what we'll find when we go out hunting for items to sell. My youngest daughter and her boyfriend buy abandoned storage buildings and I sometimes get some very unique things from those, my oldest daughter and her husband tear down old houses and buildings and often find odd little things and my husband travels for work and stops at flea markets, yard sales and thrift stores up and down the East Coast and Southern US. I usually only deal with the dishes and household items but if you are ever looking looking for something in particular, let me know and I'll look for it.</p>
