[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a set of Waterford crystal glasses - 8-12 of 4 different sizes, plus some accessories. Most of it from the 80s (you can feel the difference in weight between older and newer pieces). I loved it in the 80s, maybe even into the 2010s. But I am done with it and have replaced them with a more modern look.  So don’t feel guilty. As a PP said it served a purpose and was well used. Not sure what I will do with it but don’t feel like I need money for it so will probably it give it away. [/quote]

You might consider hanging on to it.  The modern look" might look quite dated to a lot of people in a decade or two.  It's always hard to tell whether high-quality items like the older Waterford will become sought after in the coming decades.  I agree, though, that the OP's china is probably close to worthless.  The same goes for most older sterling silver tableware. [/quote]

While its thrift shop value there is still demand for old china with the coastal grandma trend. People like to mix and match them though, not have a full set. So one person might want the salad plates and another the teacups. [/quote]
