Re: Help needed



The cost  of collectables is largely determined by availability, not

radioactivity, and it's whatever the traffic will bear.  When the public

calls a state agency regarding whether or not the orange-red fiesta ware

is "safe", they are usually advised to dispose of it.  Hence there is

less of orange-red variety than the other three colors.

I have been told that once the sellers catch-on, they

start charging more for the orange (radioactive)

Fiesta ware.
