Dixie, Merit, Sidney -0-

A few skillets I came across while hunting. I like all three but the Dixie is bulging where it discolored on the bottom, the merit and the wagner were in decent shape. I think the asking price was 25 for each. The Merits in great shape, what's the collectibility on them? I see they were made in the 1920's through the 40's. The wagner sidney was also in good shape.

If the Dixie wasn't warped or otherwise damaged, it and the Merit if in good condition might be worth the $25 ea. The Wagner #3 is more like a $10-$15 pan, although I'm sure there are many that have gone for higher on eBay. You don't see that many of the Dixies, but I don't think that makes it worth buying a damaged one. I'd try offering $20 on the Merit if it's not cracked, warped or pitted, and see if they'd take it. Maybe they'll split the difference.
