Following on from my post to locate the name and style and how to sell these glasses. I can't add pictures to my original post. I have the full set of champagne glasses, wine glasses, cherry glasses, etc. but I have no clue what they are called or worth. Thank you, please help. I had in-depth conversation with John Lewis, who without a product code could not help any further. I bought them from John Lewis in June 1991. Any info would be amazing, thank you.

Ok. It was not easy. Here is the price for your glasses www.etsy.com/

Thanks for the extra pictures! DianaHM! Wow! That is great that you found it so quick! Kudos!!!
Well, It was not quickly, but it was interesting to guess how these glasses can be called :)
I know this post asking to identify these glasses is repeated. Nobody found them last time. I spent two hours looking for these glasses. I thought the link I added was enough for the answer, but I see that my search result is being used in another answer. I don't think this is fair. I prefer to use only important information in my answers. I decided to complete my answer.
These glasses are made by Cristal d'Arques (France) presumably in mid century 1980s
www.cristaldarquesparis.com/
The glasses are called Fleury, model "Taille Epi", made of crystal glass.
Prices vary depending on the type of the glasses: $ 44.91-64.87 (for 6 glasses).

I ask a 'qualified' friend for help and she responded that I would never find them under 'John Lewis' as they were called FLEURY TAILLE and were Cristal D'Arques glasses. These appear to be made in France.
It appears that one seller has quite a haul of this pattern listed for sale and I did see where several sets had sold (on her site). This seller is located in France so I'm not really sure how these prices would relate to the US.

I still believe you should list these in sets of 6 and start at a higher price and lower it if none sell after a few weeks.
Most of the current glasses listed for sale have been made since 2010 and apparently this is when the company started using 'just glass' instead of the better stuff.
I'm just curious, how did you identify these glasses?
I believe this is John Lewis' "Woodland" pattern, Product code: 68331803. (It's been discontinued.)

Thank you so much, the information is amazing now how do I sell them? I am in london, never done this before, but other than put them in my loft and my kids get rid of them when I die I wasnt too sure what to do with them.
They may be able to help:

Replacements.com could identify them for you if you send them pictures
Your best bet to sell is either take them to a consignment store and have them do the selling for you. I am in the US so I don't know of any good shops in the UK.
Second choice would be using a local Facebook group--like we have flea market sales group on Facebook for my community where we can list things and people come to the house to pick up and pay. I started using porch pick up again--where I have a safe place on my porch I leave the item and a safe place for them to pay. They message me when they are on the way, I private message the address, they come, get the item, pay and I mark it sold.
It works for me off and on. There are flakes and crazies--so just be sure to read the profile before responding.
I don't recommend selling glassware online (like where you have to ship it). Just way too much chance for damage and it is no longer worth it to me to do that.
OR if you have boot sales or tag sales (where you go to the place to sell or sell off your sidewalk) put them out there. That is the last place because you will not get anywhere near full value, but no shipping is involved.
Post back what you decide!
