Hello Carol
I agree with what you are saying about the prices paid for winders
etc.....
It might be a good idea for us more experienced lacemakers to do as you
suggested contacting the bidder. It may be that they think they are doing well
by paying an inflated price. If they are new to lacemaking,they won`t know any
better at times. Maybe they don`t have a teacher to guide them.
