That is just crazy.....


I know I love Pyrex and many of my readers do as well. I see crazy prices all the time. I see sets of Cinderella bowls for $145 for the set. Yet I have seen them for as low as $35 for a set.


I have seen individual pieces for $20 or more at my local shops. And I recently bought a mint condition Americana bowl for .05 cents at a yard sale.


But recently on Ebay, some listed a rare piece for auction and the crazies came out to bid. I didn't bid because it is not a piece I desire, but I watched with wonder when someone pointed out that the bidding was at $585.00. Yes, you saw that right...5-8-5....for a bowl with a lid!! It got crazy ridiculous and when the piece finally, what did the winner pay. A whopping $2600.00!!! I am still sitting here astounded. Never in my wildest dreams would I ever under any conditions pay that for a bowl. Guess I need to keep my eyes open for one of these at a junk shop and put it on E-bay. It sure must be made of gold.
