I've never been a fan of wicker myself, but could see the value of flipping something like this because there ARE those who love the stuff.

About 6 weeks later I sold that Hugo Meyer Kino Plasmat 3" F:1.5 lens for $14,000 to a collector in Hong Kong.
There are 4 on ebay now priced between $36K and $50K.
I've had plenty of other scores, but that's one of my best as far as ROI.

That is AWESOME! Stuff like that too is easy to ship so selling on eBay makes a lot of sense. Good eye and good job!
