    Default does anyone here collect teacups?

    I have a few (three to be exact, rofl) and I would like to get some more. I love the teacups with matching saucers, the daintier, the better. I found some at ebay. And though I do have certain criteria, i don't know what to look for otherwise. I would love to buy, but again i don't know what to look for. Also on the look out for teapots, anyone collect these that can give me a point in the right direction for a bargain?

    I do but I only collect blue & white so I don't have much advice for you. Just buy what you love, unless you're looking for some kind of investment. I buy (when I have funds!) what catches my eye without a thought to their "worth". Glad to hear of another cup collector!

    I love Tea Cups & Tea Pots.

    I only have 3 cups & saucers that were my Mom's & 1 teapot She bought me when She went to England, but sadly it went through the fire we had & is cracked & smoke stained, but I keep it anyway.

    I do have one other teapot given to me by our Son & DIL.

    I love um!!!!!

    I love when others give me teacups!! I have 3 - one from my step mom, one from my stepgrandma and one from my sister. The one from my stepmom is really cool story. It was her great-aunts and she used to read tea leaves. This was one of her teacups that she read from. I have the whole story written out and taped to the bottomof the saucer.
