I realize that this is not specifically Ebay related, but you all have helped me so much in the past with my selling questions that I figured that this might get some more attention than in the Wanted Forum (and yes I've posted it there too)
HELP!
My boss has sent me on a quest. Since she knows I buy/sell on Ebay she's sent me on a search for some discontinued dinnerware for her daughter. I know...just what I need to do at work...right?
At any rate, the mfg is Gibson and the pattern is called SOLEIL. They are blue and while and have a large sun in the middle of the plates, etc.
I know Gibson has a web site, but they don't have this pattern listed. Anyone that could point me in the right directon would be a saint!

Good Luck!

You may also want to place a request for the items on eWanted (or a similar request site), or contact a seller that has sold other Gibson pieces to see if they have any future auctions coming that match your description (you can use the AuctionWatch search to find some current items on eBay and Yahoo!).

You might want to try Replacements.com Although the prices are not always a bargain they almost always have what you're looking for.

Thanks for all your great suggestions. I've registered at both sites. If anyone else has any bright ideas, I'd sure appreciate them!
