    Oh maybe I was not very clear. The pots are at my home and that is where I run the plant sale from. Below is what my 8ftx20 ft greenhouse looks like pre sale plus I have a summerhouse stuffed with plants plus the loan of à poly tunnel to store about 200 shrubs.

    If I can get say £5 for the small ones £10 for the medium and £20 for the really large that is better than “a poke in the eye with a blunt stick”!
    I will have a look at the local garden centre prices and see what they are asking and go from there.

      Personally I think you'd definitely sell them at those prices . Trust me, if I was nearby you'd definitely make some money for charity :smile:.

      I agree with what others have said the blue ones are common for the two larger blues + dragon I probably try £25-30 pending on how much the local Garden Centre sells them for .

      The first picture the urn with handles I'd put a premium on that one its a lovely pot and very ornamental even without planting its got more uses like for a water feature or just a stand alone pot £50+ I can't quite judge how tall its but its worth more than £50

      Thanks @AnniD and @Perki. The huge Ali baba pots are at least 3 ft tall and both are perfect. There are similar pots not as big for sale on the net for over £300each! I certainly will not sell those for less than £150 for the pair, they are beautiful and definitely not Morrisons cheapos! If I don’t sell them I will add £150 to the grand total and keep them myself. I was having a quick look on the local garden centre website and for plastic pots about 1/2 the size of the big blue ones they want £22!
