Brand new Coke collector here, this is my first post. Started collecting two months ago. Learning as I go. How can I tell what's a re-pop? The image looks crisp, even though it's in rough shape, but for the experts out there, based on the pic, can you tell if it's real? Paid $20. I know this tray, mint can fetch $200+...I know this one can't but looking for tips...any assistance is greatly appreciated!!
Best advice I ever received was to buy a copy of Petretti's 12th Edition Collectibles Price Guide. earlycoke.com also has great content and a killer price guide which breaks down value by condition. And of course there's a few with considerable knowledge here who may be able to help when you have questions about pieces like your tray. Good Luck!
@daddy...thanks for the comment. I did purchase the guide tonight. I have lots of homework to do. Are you willing to share a little about your collection? What are some of your better/not so better buys...if you don't mind me asking? Thanks again!
You can access details about my collection by touching on my posting name/image. For the most part I've chronicled my collecting experience here on CW. There are number of others who post here who have incredible Coca-Cola collections.
jpsthesecond Welcom to CW, there's alot of knowledgeable Coca-Cola collectors on CW they have given me some good insight.
Thanks all for the tips. My Petretti is in the mail...lots of homework to do. Looking forward to diving in! Appreciate the feedback...very helpful.
Good start and welcome CW!!!
I'm not dying off yet, at only 52 years, I have a lot of life yet to live but welcome in to the Coke madness! It's a fun and sometimes rewarding endeavor.
Welcome from me too....
I've got the same tray as well.
Great collection Welcome to CW:)
