Coke Signs Value question

[loman4ec]

The whole deal smells fishy. I walked away from it all. They won't even give me a price and we have been talking about them for two weeks. Its all junk. Oh well than you for the advice.

I am limiting myself to only buying really nice signs, preferable ones with the baked enamel finishes. I  sold a large sled sign like the one pictured for $350.00. That was about a year ago. The rough signs never really sold very well. 

I recommend you stick with the "no" on any repainted signs and any you find too rough for your on liking. If you question it, others will too.

Good luck

When I started collecting .. long time ago. I was buying anything I found. mostly rough stuff as I didn't dare spend alot.. I tried for years to sell that rough stuff and make a profit, very hard. A Friend, Thank you, finally told me if your going to do this and wanna make some money at it, don't buy 5 really crappy signs, buy one nice NOS or near mint sign, so started doing that and after a few years was able to buy and turn signs for a profit, enough  to start to pay for the hobby and some extra toys, and eventually machines and so forth..
moral of the story, buy the good stuff, it is the only stuff that is worth any more than what you pay for it...Eventually..
