How much is my Cuckoo Clock worth?

I just bought a BEAUTIFUL cuckoo clock at an antique store for 300.00 and I've been researching it to see if I was ripped off or if it was a good deal. However, I cannot find one like it anywhere online! It is completely wooden with the top piece having three wooden maple leaves and a large wooden rose in the center of the middle leaf, the bottom piece is the same except there is a small rose on the two side leaves as well. The whole house is shingled and right below the little window where the bird comes out are three figures of children that go round and round when the music plays. The face is roman numeral and the hands are wooden. There are three brass pinecone shaped weights and a pendelum with a rose pattern on the outside rim of it. On the back of the clock is gold sticker that says "Original Masterpiece CCC Triberg" and a certificate that looks as if it was pasted on. On the top of the certificate it says reuge music and in the middle it says minuet lullaby W.A Mozart and on the bottom in tiny print it says made in saint croix Switzerland. There is also a stamp right on the wood of the clock that looks like two crossed keys in a circle with a symbol above and below it that I cannot make out. On the side of the clock is a metal plate that on the left side reads "Wren Bazaar", a symbol of a building of some sort that says Big Ben under it, and the name of G. Burger and then on the right side it says "Made with love member of the Cuckoo Collectors Club Triberg"

I am hoping that someone sees this who really knows clocks!

Ling answers:

Take it to a clock repair shop or an antique appraiser. From the sound of it you have a really nice piece. Here's a link that might clear up part of the mystery:http://olisschnitzstube.de/about-us.html

Mary asks…

w w k ray golf clubs?

I have these W W K Ray Special golf Clubs there about 80 to 100 years old, I got them from a neighbor she 84 and her husband is 87. He was given the golf clubs from his uncle when he was a teenager, so his uncle had them for awhile. Im just trying to figure out what brand is W W K Ray Special. I've taken them to antique collectors and they can't figure out who made them. Does anybody know anything about W W K Ray Special Golf clubs? I've looked on the web. No results. Somone help me out please.

Ling answers:

Probably just someones initials or name engraved on the clubs, if theyre that old its quite possible there was not manufacturer info on the club

MilSurp rifles.?

Any collectors of old milsurp rifles? K31's, K98's, Springfield 03's, 91/30's, M44's, M38's, SKS's, Yugo, Turk or Egyptian Mauser's, Carcano's, Luger's, CZ52's, M1's, M14's, (not really interested in M16's, M4's etc, or AK's) Are you a member of a local club or a national club for milsurp collectors? Is a C&R really worth it if i plan on collecting milsurp firearms and antique firearms?

Ling answers:

If you want to collect you don't need a C&R unless you want to buy direct from distributors. Go to a dealer fill out the 4473 on those items you want to have and your done with it.

A C&R and an FFL cost money to keep.. You need to have accurate record keeping in the event ATF decides to audit you or if one of your weapons get's stolen, also you need to have a lockable safe place to store this items as per regulation if you do a C & R or FFL.

Just my 2 cents..
