Whether you're an avid antique collector or just getting started, here's what to keep in mind before you go on your next haul:"When buying collectibles, look for the copyright info. It helps to authenticate, and also states what year the product was made, which can add value.""Estate sales in wealthy areas can be gold mines. On the first day, you get the best selection and right before it ends, you can get amazing discounts.
"My daughter now decorates her home with some antiques. I think once there is an interest in antiques of all kinds, you naturally want to learn about them. So look online, pick up antique guides, and go to a few auctions. Be a sponge for antique information.
