If they don't show you, will you be able to update after the Portland shows air and tell us the results?
Yes if my segment gets cut, I'll post photos of the artwork and tell you their appraised value . I just can't do it beforehand!
That will be awesome! I've always wondered what it was like to be on that show.
DH and I apparently have sucky taste. There seems to be a direct correlation between how hideously ugly we think a vase is and how extremely valuable it is - the more garish and loud it is, the more it costs, apparently.
So I'll probably be one of the people that gives away a 400,000 vase that I think is butt ugly crap to someone who then takes it to the road show and finds out it's real value.....
Plus I'm kind of an anti-hoarder which means I've regularly junked old stuff out of my life. People come on there with toys they had when they were kids that are now very valuable - that will never be me.

Well LOL this is actually me too . . . I don't have a lot of sentimental childhood stuff still hanging around. I only have this artwork that I took to the show because it came down through the family. Plus I acquired more from my uncle's "half" of the inheritance when he passed on.

BUMP for those who wanted a reminder. The three Portland shows start tonight on PBS. You will find out at the same time as I do if my segment made the cut. If not tonight, there are two more chances: April 9 and April 16. In other news, Mr. Kittensaver will be watching from the very best seat in the house. He passed away last Tuesday after a short and fierce battle with a rare form of blood cancer. Today is his birthday

Well - - didn't make tonight's show. Two more chances: April 9 and April 16. Thank you everyone for your kind words of condolence. After 34 years of marriage I *still* thought he was a wonderful guy, and I miss him terribly
