Hey /out/ should I sell this piece of Amber I have? On one hand the guy is willing to pay $400 but on the other, this is the only piece of Amber I have and it is the most beautiful piece I've ever come across in my 18 years of living

My logic on these things is that if its something you found/made/did yourself, then it has more connection to you than to anybody else. If I were to part with it, Id pass it down or something.

At the very least get more than $400.

I mean, if you were going to starve or lose your house/apartment then sure, sell it I guess. In the bigger picture of your life, $400 is pocket chane and that piece of amber is something that has memories and a story attatched to it, which makes it worth much more than $400 in my opinion.

If I were you, and I wanted an extra $400 in my pocket then I'd look around for some odd jobs I could do in my spare time to make that extra money instead of even considering selling an awesome piece of amber that I found.

I wouldn't, but it really comes down to how much you value it.

I feel like many people won't sell anything, ever. Until they really need the money, and then they'll sell anything, way too cheap.

$400 doesn't seem like enough to me.

How does one detect if the amber they have is actually amber and not some kinda plastic?

I've got my deceased mom's amber necklace that she bought in Poland during the 1970s but I don't know if it's real or not?

Real amber glows slightly under a UV black light.

You could also put a drop of acetone on it. Real amber won't be affected after the acetone evaporates, copal resin or plastic will get soft and sticky.

You're 18 so I assume you don't have all the things you want in life or heaps of money. A piece of amber offers you no utility at all. Sell it and spend it on something practical and high-quality - something you'll have for life.

but the amber has value because other people think it's pretty
op hasn't decided it has value
and if all he wants is something pretty he can sell the amber and spend $20 on a fake piece and $380 on whatever he wants
if he values amber more than money then he wouldn't have made the thread, he wants to know how much to sell it for not whether or not he should
btw saving private ryan was septic propaganda
