  • Hi Lisa2002~ A good place to start might be Replacements, Ltd. They sell replacement pieces of china to consumers. Here is a link to their Oakley page: http://www.replacements.com/splash.htm And their Aynsley page: http://www.replacements.com/china/AYN.htm You could contact them and see if they have the pieces you have, and find out what they are asking for them. There's also an Aynsley Collector's Society that may be able to provide you with some information; they are located in England: http://www.aynsley.co.uk/ You can also look at eBay and see what similar pieces are selling for there. Here's a link to a search for Oakley china currently being sold: http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?cgiurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2Fws%2F&krd=1&from=R8&MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&query=Oakley+China And another for Aynsley china currently being sold: http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?cgiurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2Fws%2F&krd=1&from=R8&MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&query=aynsley+china To see how much pieces have sold for in the recent past, simply go to ebay ( http://www.ebay.com ) and click on the "Search" button at the top of the page. Then click on the "Completed Items" tab and type in either "Aynsley china" or "Oakley china." When it comes time to sell, you will usually get more for the pieces if you sell them yourself (eBay is a good place to do this), but if you don't have the time needed for such a venture, Replacements, Ltd. also buys china. In addition, local antique dealers may be interested in purchasing your china outright. (I don't generally recommend selling via consignment, because the pieces may sit in an antique shop for many months before you get any money for them.) Just remember that dealers must make a profit, too, so you can expect to get much less for the china if you sell it to a dealer...sometimes as much as 40% less. To find local dealers, check your local yellow pages under "Antiques."
