Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (for vintage lovers), eBay (for widest reach), or local Facebook Marketplace (to avoid high shipping costs for heavy glass).
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'EAPG', 'Mid-Century Modern', and 'Pressed Glass'. Photograph against a solid dark background to highlight the clear glass pattern detail. Wrap excessively in bubble wrap for shipping as glass is heavy and prone to impact breakage.
