I found this beautiful
Baccarat Massena ice bucket at a thrift in Los Angeles. It was sitting on a shelf behind the cash register and caught my eye. It was heavy like all good crystal, but I couldn't see a makers mark on the bottom. When i looked into the ice bucket from the inside I saw the Baccarat mark... it was hidden behind the price tab. I happily paid the $25 asking price since a quick search on my phone showed the piece has a $900 retail price.
Baccarat acid-stamp
Current retail price is $900
Since I already have an couple ice buckets I did a quick flip on eBay. My $25 investment sold for $285. That's a quick and easy $265 profit.
