A few of the Toronto area collectors have been having swap meets for a while now, but we always ran into the same problem - we all wanted to downsize, but swapping just wasn't helping that, even though it was a lot of fun. A bunch of us have gotten together and rented a space. We are having a Pyrex sale! Here are the details:
Sunday, August 19th
Rosedale Valley Antique Market at the Evergreen Brickworks in Toronto, ON
550 Bayview Avenue (map)
9 am - 5pm
Altogether we have over 130 pieces of Pyrex to sell (along with a few other vintage items), including some full sets and some harder to find pieces. We're only looking to get back what we paid for our pieces plus cover the cost of the table, so our prices are going to be a lot better than typical Antique Market or Antique Mall prices.
It should be a lot of fun and a great way to build up your collection or add a few special pieces.
See you there!
Awwe, shucks! I work every Sunday.
ReplyDeleteLucky everybody else. :/
What fun! Wish we were doing something in the states.
ReplyDeleteI hope it's not a mad house for you guys!
Erica :)
Thank you! I wish you could all be there. I'm sort of hoping it is a bit of a mad house so we can find new homes for these lovely pieces!
ReplyDeleteOh WOW!! Sounds like a blast!!
ReplyDeleteIs it possible to pay for them and have them shipped back to the states. I knOw I would go along with that!!
ReplyDeleteNice things I like your items who is so nice.

SO dreamy!!
ReplyDeleteKara - part of the reason we're doing this is to avoid shipping since shipping to the states can be so expensive for us (we're talking $30 per pieces) and most people don't want to pay that. If there is anything specific you're looking for some of us may be posting items on etsy afterwards.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fantastic idea. Good luck with your sale. Seems some bargains will be had. xo Ginger
