When my great aunt died I was in charge of cleaning out her house, she had no children. She had a room full of Longaberger baskets. I didn't know what they were but I knew they were nice baskets. I kept a few of the more interesting ones and sold the rest to an antique store. They paid me a fortune, this was about 20 years ago. Are the baskets still fetching a high price?
