You should also know what you are buying

When was the last time your mother got you something at a flea market for $250

Sorry but most of the time that I see threads like these I think the poster has already made the purchase and they want us to tell them, great find.

David and Jim, I understand where you are both coming from, and I can see value in what both you guys are saying. I would have to argue though Jim, how often can you educate yourself before you see an item you are not sure about? Going to a flea market or garage sale may only be a one day deal and it is impossible to foresee what you may encounter. One may not have time or access to research an item. Researching is possible for auctions when you preview it before the end.
I guess also the excitement of possibly finding something cool may consume one to want to purchase it before investigating.

My Last word on the subject, if you do not know what an item is, can't tell if it is a fake or have questions, don't buy, live for another day.
