With nice sterling you're better off putting it probably on ebay or taking it to a consignment shop possibly.
If you received a high price for your Johnson Bros. dishes,
it was strictly because Replacements had a customer who was looking for it
and they could do an immediate sale of buying from you and selling to them.

The same would be true for flatware -- sterling or plate.
With Replacements, every sale is contingent upon whether or not
they have a customer ready to buy what you have.
