Ever wonder what grandma’s old – maybe antique – vase is worth. Or preparing to downsize and trying to determine how to get rid of all that “junk” you’ve accumulated over the years. Is it worth anything? Should you just pull up a dumpster and get rid of it?

Kevin Bruneau, owner of Bruneau & Co. who has been helping people make those decisions for years, joined us Frank Prosnitz and I on The Open Forum on WADK 1540 am from 12:30pm to 1:30pm today.
