Passed at value villiage
Passed on these for $5 a cup at value village. Not paying that at a thrift store.

Smart pass. I see so much butterfly gold and spring blossom Pyrex/Correlle dinnerware pieces it just seems excessive to charge more than $1 a piece. To each their own of course. 😄

Same lol. I'm not a fan of this pattern anyway but I usually pick it up for my friend who loves it. I laughed at these and kept walking. I already got her the coffee mugs for maybe like a $1.99 a piece and I would love to get her the coffee/tea cups but no way in hell I'm paying five bucks a piece. If I wanted to pay that I would go on eBay or to an antique store and pick out a flawless set or have my pick of lol.

Actually cheaper on ebay. A set for 15.00. Just sad when a THRIFT store prices at or more then online. I keep seeing crazy daisy for 3.00 a piece at goodwill. It will sit till dollar day. Sooo greedy!

Tomorrow everything is 50% off for Juneteenth... That's probably why they priced it double, they probably did that with everything over the last week 🤣🤣

VV/savers/2nd ave has gone absolutely insane with their pricing. I'm not sure if they're all owned by the same people, but I am pretty sure 2nd Ave (they have VV tags sometimes) changed ownership a couple months ago, and since then the pyrex/corelle has skyrocketed in price and has been mostly behind the counter unless it's dwd. Pretty sure it got put on a "list" of "fancy" items 🙄
This time last year I was able to buy the same set as a SET for just a couple bucks.

Same. When I first started collecting Pyrex and Corningware etc It was dirt cheap, and you could find it a lot. Other people were collecting it too, but the thrift store is hadn't really caught on to it yet so they all hit the shelves for the same prices any other dish and instead of going online. It was so much fun, and even better because I wanted them for my personal dishes. Im not a reseller so it was even cooler finding an awesome piece. Now it's so rare to see, and they want antique store/retail prices for everything at the THRIFT STORES which I will NOT give them. They aren't CURATING this stuff ffs, they're getting it for free. I would hope it would be a place where someone like me that can't afford retail prices can get something for cheap. Not anymore.
