Started my collection, items listed

[Micah Unruh]

I just started my Griswold and Wagner collection yesterday. I found a sweet elderly lady that just couldn't handle the weight anymore and was selling all her cast iron. She gave me a price and there was no reason to haggle. I walked away with more than a box full for $250. Here's what I picked up:

Thanks,

Hello Micah. You did EXTREMELY well. I probably give two thousand dollars for that much iron when I first started out. I learned pretty quick that I either had to get smarter or win the lottery. I didn't win the lottery.  :'(

I'm pretty excited about it. The nice part is that very little of it needs refinishing. I'll probably reseason most pieces, just to get a better look at the markings, but I used the aebleskiver pan and the Griswold 6 last night.

That averages a bit over $10 each, so I would say, yes, you did quite well
