What do you think about Antique Cameos?
I love them! The are coming into fashion too. Does anyone collect them? Do you know any great vintage jewelry websites?
My mom and I both love cameos- I have noticed that they are showing up more in jewelry stores- I look forward to them becoming commonplace again! For websites, you might try Google- I found one pretty quickly: http://www.absolutelyvintage.net/cameo.htm.
Good luck!

Get Into Selling Your Collectibles Online
Fads come and go and fashion is always on the rise, but in the world of collectors there are certain items which remain valuable on a monetary and personal level. These collectibles range from action figures and miniature cars to porcelain plates, toy decorative dolls, and vintage cameos. They may even be worth a fortune like rare paintings, first-edition books, and trading cards.
In a way, collectibles are an extension of people's lives. They reflect just how much a person is into a certain activity or just how much value he put into these items. Like to name suggests, collectibles require you to invest an extensive amount of your time, money, and effort into acquiring them. They do not take one or two attempts to shop and gather. You search for them at auctions and sometimes you run into them at antique shops by design or fate.
The first step to selling your collectibles online would be to get your own domain name and create your own website. Organize your site by uploading photos of your collectibles with a short but detailed description of each item. By using techniques in positioning or angling each item and in giving the right light and shade to it without airbrushing, on your own, you could create great photos that would capture interest. Pictures are meant to give a view of its authenticity to trained collector eyes, to show what condition it is in, and to generate attention to the highlights of each item.
You could also choose from many online websites and maximize on offers for free advertising and web space where you could strategically post your collectibles. You would just have to make do with some pop-ups and ads but that's how the dynamics of the net operates.
Broaden your horizons further by finding those forums, message boards, and mailing lists where collectors and enthusiasts gather and huddle to regularly read, post, and inquire on your kind of collectibles. Search engines like Yahoo and Goggle or widely-used networks like AOL are a good place to begin.
Find out who's simply hanging out and who's seriously buying. The collectibles you're willing and raring to give up could be the very items certain buyers consider rare and are on the look-out for. You could supply that demand out there in the online market.
Keep updated on what's going on out there in the market and set competitive prices for your collectibles. When it comes to the actual negotiations, it's you who finally decides the lowest price at which you are willing to sell your collectibles.
Lastly, come to terms with parting with your collectibles. You should have gradually done so even before the moment you actually decided to sell them. Collectibles are designed to give pleasure and direction to your life but they're not the end-all of your existence. At one time or another, you may have to let go of bits and pieces or all of your collection to improve your finances. You could also be flowing with the current lifestyle trend towards minimalism.
On a lighter note, you may be giving up your collectibles to give way to more space in your house and new energy in your life. You are only as young as your next hobbies and interests.
