those of you on this thread who embroider i have questions for you. i went to an estate sale and this woman had lots and lots of thread for sale. the thread was priced rather high to me and others at the sale so a lot of it is still there but then again a lot of it has been sold also.
my question is what is a good price for embroidery thread? one of the sellers got testy with me today when i mentioned they needed to package at least the used spools together and put a price on them. what they are doing is guessitmating a price once you go to check out. they are selling the thread by the spool.

there are some plastic boxes of thread that are priced $150-$200+ with about 58 spools to a box in just about every imaginable color. is that a good price for embroidery thread? the specialty threads have all been purchased i believe but there was so much thread there.
here are some pics to give you an ideal of what i am talking about. i may go back tomorrow to see what's shaking.[ATTACH=CONFIG]294584[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]294585[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]294586[/ATTACH]
