Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay or Replacements, Ltd. are best for reaching collectors. Poshmark is excellent for luxury home decor. Facebook Marketplace for local sales to avoid shipping risks.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Lead Crystal,' 'MCM Style,' and 'Replacement.' Photography is key: use a dark or solid background with bright side-lighting to capture the 'sparkle' and prism effect. Wrap excessively in bubble wrap and double-box to ensure safe delivery.
