“Woman in shock after finding out how much her vase is worth after only paying $4 for it.” You will absolutely not believe how much it was worth. Where did she get the vase? From a Goodwill store in Virginia. Makes me want to go check out the things they have at the Goodwill here in St. Petersburg.
How Much Was The Vase Worth?
Jessica Vincent says the vase caught her eye while she was shopping at the Goodwill store. Vincent says the vase was stunning. It was glass with translucent red and seafoam patterns. It was in great condition.
After paying only $3.99 for it, she had no idea at the time that it was worth $100K. Jessica tells USA Today, “Thankfully, there was nobody in the aisle and I picked it up and I couldn’t believe that it was glass like solid glass not painted. It was iridized it was just really beautiful up close. In my mind, I thought maybe it’s like a $1000 $2,000 piece. I knew it was good but I didn’t know it was like the master work that it is at the moment.”
