How much can I get for a 1991 Longaberger basket? ?

Question

It's a collector's item, bought at $109, in pretty good condition.
The bottom says:
"Longaberger baskets
Handwoven
Dresden, Ohio USA"

Then below that it says either "KUW 1991" or "ICUW 1991" something like that.

I'm not planning on selling it, but I was just curious how much it would be.

If you can email me the measurements of the basket and what shape it is, I probably can give you an accurate price for it. I need the height, length and width. Is it round, rectangle, square or odd shaped (like a star)? Is it just the basket or do you also have the liner (fabric) and protector (plastic) with the basket?

KUW 1991 are the initials of the basket maker and the year the basket was made.

Answer 2

it depends on what type of basket you have... is it seasonal? or the kiddie purse? colored? liner? size? Each of these causes dramatic ahnages in price.
From my brief research it appears that a large basket in very good condition is worth roughly $100 US. Most are worth FAR less. You would be better of finding a reputable dealer and have them appraise your specific basket.
