I am sure there are alot of sellers who have sold more than I, especially antiques! Does anyone know of a good site or sites to sell them at a good prices? Any thoughts or ideas are very much appreciated!

Have you looked at Old and Sold? It's a pretty little site and is easy to move around. It's free and the customer service seems very good. I listed a few items there and to be honest sales were slow, but they automatically relist until they sell or you cancel them yourself. Just a suggestion.

It depends on what type of antiques, Sotheby's and Buttler& Buttler are good sites for high $ Unique items , Yahoo is more for the common folk like myself.=)

You mean, other than eGreed, YaWho and Amazon?
E-Hammer is an antiques-only auction, but they have listing and FVFs, and not much bidding going on.
Old And Sold is where the fake Van Gogh painting has been posted for sale a couple times, and the auction was very irresponsible in their handling of the whole affair. I'd hesitate to list there for that very reason.
If you know the value of your antiques, you can list them anywhere free/affordable for you, with your bottom dollar as the opening bid and a buy price (but no reserve), and wait for a bidder(s) to come along. BidVille (formerly Auxpal) is growing quickly, has free image hosting, and a thumbnail photo gallery is in the works. Other sellers are trying Lycos (lots of exposure through the FairMarket Network, but they don't advertise the auction), epier, edeal, meta exchange, snaprat, pootah, tbay, ubid, 321gone, bidbay, Dutchbid, haggle, auctionaddict, etc., but none have much bidding yet.
