Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay or Etsy are best for collectors looking for replacements. Facebook Marketplace is ideal for selling a large set locally to avoid shipping risks.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Vintage Luminarc', 'Diamond Cut', and 'French Glassware'. Pack with double-boxing and plenty of bubble wrap if shipping. Photograph against a dark background with side lighting to highlight the facets.
