I've got over 50 pieces of fine antique jewelry (19th and 18th century) values ranging from $500 - $3000+ and I'm getting very little luck from eBay's bidders.
Is there a different auction site that specializes in higher-end merch. or is known for its antique jewelry selection?
I realize the bulk of bidders is on eBay so I thought that was my safest bet -- but like in vegas I want to start hedging. =)

I tried "Old and Sold" because they are designed for higherend antiques, but still had the same problem as on eBay. I would get emails making offers less than 50% of my starting price! Very discouraging. There is a "premier" section on eBay now I think, but I don't know what it takes to list there. Good luck! Hope you find a home you can do well with.

re: sulyn post.
I've seen the premiere section before -- that's a very funny situation -- it appears they get no bids at all too! High end stuff collecting dust. I'll try the old and sold site you suggested.
