What a sweetheart she was to welcome you in and give you a private viewing dept 56 sells year round at least…. You can keep going back and turning dollars
I believe you played that very smart. I’m sure you would have made money around her price for all but for me that’s a long road to sell all that. Seemed like breaking it down to individual piles got you better prices. Go back in a few months I think her prices may get even better.
I must say, you are my favorite. It is 653 am here in Nova Scotia Canada. I am getting my elbow pads and helmet and knee pads on getting ready for the garage sale attacks. LOL. I watch your videos all the time to inspire myself. THANKS I think you are awesome
This was crazy money for you both! I am so happy you bought what you bought. They will sell and you will make a fortune ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜 love your videos and your work!
I bought a bulk lot of D56 a couple of years ago and still have a few pieces. The problem is that they have so much detail like little signs or flags etc. and many were missing from the ones I bought. it takes a long time to inspect them. However, I did make out well with the ones I did sell. But it definately takes a lot of time.
Those other pair of Doc martens in the beginning are also worth a lot! Saw some being sold around $300-$400. Their a special art edition That Doc Martens did back in 2015, those ones are called "Doc Martens William Blake 1460". There's a bunch of different art styles for them and most pairs are worth well over $250-$300!
I need to catch up on your videos. I loved this video so much variety. Great buy on the Doc Martens and the Barbies. I’m not familiar with Dept 56 items as I’m from Australia and haven’t seen them. Interesting that the game consoles were wrapped in plastic wrap, is that a concern at all? I thought it looked a good idea to keep out dust if they aren’t being used regularly any more.
Thanks Lois, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm not too worried about them being wrapped. I bought at a price that I can sell some of them for parts if they don't work and they should be fine.
Hey Dustin, big fan of your videos, been watching for a while now. I am also a reseller and I mostly go to thrift stores and flea markets, but I want to incorporate yard sales, I just have no idea how to start. What app do you use to find these yard sales and how do you plan a route? I live in South Florida so if you know if there's a better app for here please let me know. Thank you for all the videos!
I started going to yard sales here in Florida to flip items on eBay and stuff, but I don’t have a lot of knowledge when it comes about picking up items that can sell. I try to do market research when I’m at the sales but it’s hard to get something worthwhile, even with video games. Any tips? I get a little bit frustrated sometimes
Go early and often. Ask for items you're looking for, sometimes they will bring it out. Look at ads before going and see if they have what you're looking for. Watch videos such as mine and others and learn more categories and items to look for. Hope this helps!
Do you comp things on your phone at yard sales? I always feel so awkward doing it especially if I'm the only person at a sale, but i need to know if its worth buying certain things 😆
If no one else is around. I'll walk over to something else and make it look like I am just texting someone. I'm paranoid as hell to actually look like I am comp'n stuff. I know I shouldn't feel strange about it, but i do.
At the last sale i went to, I thought the owner had gone inside to pull some more items out. I pulled my phone out and began looking an item up. He then yelled out behind me the amount the item sales for on eBay. I felt like a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
There could be a yard sale advertised with video games for 8am, “no early birds” and there will be people waiting at 6am. I’ll show at 7:30 to be prepared and they will say, “someone was already here and got them all”…. I’ve almost completely stopped sourcing video games.
All people try to get to yard sales early,I watch several pickers and I have seen them all do the same thing that they frown on, It boils down to they get upset because it wasn’t them that got there and bought stuff ahead of others
Basically if sales advertise video games, you’re not going to get them. There’s always gonna be crazy resellers showing up hours before a sale is open. Key is just hit as many as possible and ask each if they have any games for sale. About 25% of the time they pull it out for you.
Sorry but 4200 is an insane price these are always broken or chipped, missing pieces even from the people who say they took perfect care of their stuff. For the buyers they tend to like perfect. It is profitable for the right pieces but some are literally not worth the shipping selling online. Not to mention the trees and walkways are hard to sell and not worth much. I have sold 100s of dept 56 and its hard to buy from the ones who originally purchased because they always have a story what they purchased it for. Oh the best part is them pointing at the price on the box LOL. Oh wait not the best part...best part is the GLITTER!!!!! I dont think it will ever be fully gone from my home LOL
I am glad that I got my son vintage star wars space ships and figures vintage things 70s for £70.00 worth over £500 when he was younger he is now 20years old & won't sell them. The designer of star wars and bat man things has died
When I saw that Tornado Rex I was like, whooa that can be worth a lot of money. In fact, there is an estate sale with this game sealed tomorrow. You can count on the fact I WONT be there because there will be a ton of people hours before it opens and with these estate sale companies, prices will be through the roof. Waste of time.
That feeling when you first see the collection. Followed up by the deflating feeling when you hear the price . I would’ve been a buyer at maybe two grand
Department 56 90s Christmas oranments 25 0 pieces?Omg are you kidding me..yeah..even at 420 Dustin you know very well you'll make a profit cause Christmans ornaments sell well through out the year not only the Christmas season.
@@propicker yeah Dustin ive noticed and of course you did well i mean 4400 for a yard sale is absurd even if its Department 56..i bet if she wanted a thousand bucks you would hit the button right away.
If you’re going to make as good on the boots 🥾, I think you should have gave them what they were asking, And that goes for anything that you’re going to make really good on,Give them the little that they ask where they can get a little of what they spent back
I agree. But there are some YT pickers that always pay full asking or walk away. Or even go beyond like Anthony does when he feels the asking was to low. Propicker is respecting the people like with the guitar. Don’t argue just accept. Some pickers continuing trying to go below asking price with everything. Seems like a sports to them and when I see that often, I unsubscribe. Somehow I don’t like to continue viewing.
I don't have a prob w asking for certain items. Sometimes people didn't have time to get everything out for gs. If they are willing to get it, go for it.
Man, that Tornado Rex game took me right back to my childhood. I now remember the TV commercials but we never could afford it.
Holy smokes great Dept. 56, Christmas, plus the Barbies. 😊
Your always respectful and polite, nice work, pleasure to watch
You are my favorite picker to follow. I love that you do not lowball the sellers like so many others
Your videos are great. Prices paid and comps. Like seeing your respect to sellers of sales and banter. Thank you for being awesome.
Thanks for watching and the kind words!
I am lost for words, especially the Barbie haul!
You two are such a great couple!!!
Thank you!

90s board game you can spot it from miles away.. the box the drawings the colours everything man was so unique in the 90s. Big score nice Dustin.
I hope you gave that first lady your business card ! Great connection of she gets a lot of movers.
That Tornado Rex is fire, by far my grail piece for board games, I got it when I was a kid for Christmas.
Wow! I had forgotten about the Tornado Rex game. I had it as a child. I never played it the right way, just liked watching it spin down the mountain 😂
I believe you played that very smart. I’m sure you would have made money around her price for all but for me that’s a long road to sell all that. Seemed like breaking it down to individual piles got you better prices. Go back in a few months I think her prices may get even better.

9:42 that horse reminds me of the one I had as a little girl of about 4. That started my love of horses. I am now 62!

This was crazy money for you both! I am so happy you bought what you bought. They will sell and you will make a fortune ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜 love your videos and your work!

April Wine?! No way!!!❤❤❤❤
I was so worried you were going to leave that Warriors of Rock game behind! Nice pick up.
You Rock man! Went up to MVP the other weekend--not a bad amazon returns place!
Doc Martens for $60 should be solid. Love to hear what you get for those.
Absolute awesome video ❤❤
Your sound effects crack me up! Lol!!
Great finds once again! I actually picked up that sam model Magnavox DVD/VCR a couple weeks ago for $5. Weird coincidence! Super fast seller too
Great video! How can you tell if christmas porcelain are department 56 brand without boxes. Any marks or signs on the bottom?
Yes, they will be marked Department 56 on the bottom typically.

There is a nursery rhyme about " London bridge "
Hey Oh!!!
Do you comp things on your phone at yard sales? I always feel so awkward doing it especially if I'm the only person at a sale, but i need to know if its worth buying certain things 😆
I will comp things, but not everything. Just on things I'm on the fence on.
If no one else is around. I'll walk over to something else and make it look like I am just texting someone. I'm paranoid as hell to actually look like I am comp'n stuff. I know I shouldn't feel strange about it, but i do.

@gregleach4956 that's my worst nightmare right there
I'm not sure why you left the Tate Museum Doc Martin's they sell for over $100 pre-owned??

Are you still doing the house series? Or did I miss an update.
I will be doing an update on it eventually.
F*** this video reminded of the doc martens somewhere in my house. Now i have to find them!!!
What software do you use to keep track of your sales and expenses?
We just setup quickbooks, but we have been using Google sheets and excel.
That MacBook Air 15 ad had me blowing at my screen like 10 times. I thought a had a huge pube on my screen
❤
People go to garage sales like 3 hours early when they have video games it's ridiculous 🤦
I want to know where this town is where none of the people understand the value of a used video game or console. Where is this Mecca?😊
Oh no, those William Blake doc martens are like $200+ :(
Can’t believe you left the other pair of Dr Martens that are worth HUNDREDS!!

if youtubers could learn to block the ring doorbell noise that would be FABULOUS! LOL My dogs are barking now or atleast prewarning :)
Sorry!
@@propicker LOLLLL love ur vids! Just not the ring doorbells 😂🤣
That feeling when you first see the collection.
Followed up by the deflating feeling when you hear the price .
I would’ve been a buyer at maybe two grand
So all the Barbies sold already?
No, we've been getting them listed. Hopefully, they all sell soon!
Hello
Hey Jeanetta!
Why’d you pass on the other docs?
I did look them up and just decided not to go with them. In hindsight they may have been a solid pick up.
Was there a military helicopter flying over @11:20 ?
There's a small airport near that sale.
Department 56 90s Christmas oranments 25 0 pieces?Omg are you kidding me..yeah..even at 420 Dustin you know very well you'll make a profit cause Christmans ornaments sell well through out the year not only the Christmas season.
I only bought a handful of pieces for that. She wanted 4400 if I bought the whole lot, so just picked a few of the better ones out.
@@propicker yeah Dustin ive noticed and of course you did well i mean 4400 for a yard sale is absurd even if its Department 56..i bet if she wanted a thousand bucks you would hit the button right away.
Ur location ???
longer videos are much better
After have few people cherry pickin be lot harder to sell it all
You left the car behind
San Diego yard sales are anemic compared to yours
Please do something about your camera situation…your video cuts CB off a lot and half the time we are just seeing you from the waste down
SORRY, SORRY those 56's are MONEY 💰.

If you’re going to make as good on the boots 🥾, I think you should have gave them what they were asking, And that goes for anything that you’re going to make really good on,Give them the little that they ask where they can get a little of what they spent back
No solds on the boots. What I paid was entirely a gamble. I'll probably ask less than the other listings I showed.
I agree. But there are some YT pickers that always pay full asking or walk away. Or even go beyond like Anthony does when he feels the asking was to low.
Propicker is respecting the people like with the guitar. Don’t argue just accept.
Some pickers continuing trying to go below asking price with everything. Seems like a sports to them and when I see that often, I unsubscribe. Somehow I don’t like to continue viewing.
The tag said $100 or best offer…. And he gave a reasonable offer that she accepted. And $100 definitely isn’t “little that they ask”
Tower Bridge not London Bridge
London Bridge is in Arizona
What is the general radius of all your finds? The only albums I ever find are 60 yr old polka albums! Ohio is great for yard sales.
probably 45 minutes of driving.
See what I mean there you go again asking for games when there not selling them to begin with
Nothing wrong with that.
@@propickerits very annoying if they wanted to sale it then they would set it out
I don't have a prob w asking for certain items. Sometimes people didn't have time to get everything out for gs. If they are willing to get it, go for it.
