The more I learn about books, DVDs, & other media the more I fall in love with the category
Here in central Wisconsin early spring to mid summer it’s insane
Thanks for the book lesson
Always sharing informative videos.
We have Freddy’s in Vegas so much better than In & Out
Gracias amigo Mike.
Countrywood in Cordova TN
We have a Freddy's here on the gulf coast of Florida.
My wife also likes the CUSTARD.
Mike how much do your lemax porcelain houses sell for? I have a few i found brand new over the summer
Those are all over the place. Depends on the ones you have. Halloween does well
what's the coasty picker channel?
www.youtube.com/@coastiepicker Adam is just starting out so watch for his videos.
I'm not able to find Adam's channel or the link in the description.
He is just starting out so save his channel. He will have a great story to tell. www.youtube.com/@coastiepicker
From this video I received your cheery company while folding laundry and… my first eBay sale! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 thank you for all you do and God bless!
Thanks so much for watching.
Shoes and handbags are my categories.
Garage sales are slow here in Wichita Falls Tx. Everyone is tired of the heat! 🌞. Hoping Oct and Nov are better.
Mike , there is a big time neighborhood community yard sale every year here in Memphis in September. Vendors etc. we have a Freddie's as well!
FFresno sucks big time
I totally agree with you Mike, about location. The majority of the US population is east of the Mississippi River. Being on the west coast can be a disadvantage in shipping costs. Keep up the videos.
Hi I absolutely admire you sir, you have taught me so much...I am 65 yrs old and loving this gig...my niche is athletic shoes and I do well, my major Dept store experience helped me... however thanks to you I sell everything and believe me I have found and sold some treasures...I have turned $1 into $200 a few times, right place right time...I source in West Hollywood and Beverly Hills mostly and the things I get, phewwe....I have flipped things I have found by dumpsters....oh and I love flipping cameras...anywho thanks and keep on teaching.... Curtis Finds West Hollywood Ca...by the way I do equally good on eBay and Mercari....my antiques vintage and collectibles go on Etsy, which is good also...God Bless
P.S. Vintage discontinued Perfumes also
Super thanks Curtis. There is so much to sell out in this world. Free to $1 it's everywhere we just have to go out and find it. Thanks again.
Ijust found an earring that has been missing for years…in my jewelry box. How is that even possible?
It weird how that works.
Thanks for book lessons. I had a fun day thrifting today. Top finds, spear fishing gun and margarita machine
Very nice.
In our area, I can’t possibly goto even 1/2 the rummage sales that happen on good weekends. So many sales😊
Nice to hear. Thanks for watching.
The number of garage sales in upstate NY is down 60-75% compared to 2019. Town wide sales that would have 50-60 sales every year pre-2019 now have maybe 15-20... and more and more what is for sale tends to be goodwill bins level junk. I barely even bothered going to any this year.
I've found that to be true also. A lot of just lower quality stuff.
I enjoy selling almost everything honestly. I absolutely love books, glass, lamps, vintage tools/outdoor gear, neckties, halloween/christmas. Its great finding nice clothing items, but absolutely hate listing them. Freddy's is awesome I always get the jalapeño burger with a banana shake 🔥 Also my wife lost her wedding ring. Shes a nurse so wears a band at work. We have cats so use your imagination 😅 we found it 4 years later when we moved to arizona
NICE on the ring. I too get the Jalapeno burger.
is there a place to get your bin of books there?
Nothing like I have now.
Hey Mike,
I live just outside of Tucson surrounded by high end retirement communities and our season starts mid September/beginning of October running through May. I keep a rather large death pile that more than sustains me throughout the absolute misery of summer. I do keep a sharp eye out on estate sales year round and also source and sell on Nextdoor.
Kevin has really upped his game in the decorative glass realm.
Love the content.
Take good care.
K.T.
That summer heat is brutal. Thanks for the comment. Best to you.
Hey Mike! I noticed you’ve been getting a lot of negative feedback for some reason. How do you deal with that? I think from your photos and videos, one of the most in depth descriptions.
Also, I think you’re one of the most real eBay/amazon people that make videos.
Most are people who try to scam me. I just got one removed from there due to LIES they told. It's the same old thing with so many of these. I personally really don't look at it much. My 4600 plus positive feedback speak for me. People realize that many people are never satisfied. I just keep lisiting.
Very few garage sales in my area this summer. People (1) are holding onto their stuff because of the high cost of replacement, and (2) are not doing any due to the fear of crime. I know that's true for me and my friends.
I think that is true. People aren't replacing as much. I think that the cost of JEANS for example are way up so keeping the ones you have around a bit longer.
Last!
Yes, I see that.
Don't you just love it when you find the right box, right when you needed it. Happened to me today. Life's little pleasures.
That really is a day maker when that happens. Thanks for watching.
If you're in North Carolina, you need to try Biscuitville Breakfast Biscuits. The are awesome.
Is that a restaurant?
@@goldenstatepicker Yes sir. Last I ate there, was at a Raleigh location, but they're all over the state. Having family in Raleigh, Cary, Chapel Hill, Ashville, & Todd, I spent a considerable amount of time in North Carolina, in my younger years.
Interestingly, my father, now retired was also a Coastie. Most of his career was based in the Midwest on the Great Lakes, but he spent some time in Alameda, CA., as well as Buffalo, NY., Yorktown, VA., & Key West, FL.
I think he fancied the idea, that I should have gone the route of OCS... Officer Candidate School. However, life took me down a different, but equally rewarding path. Good luck to your son-in-law. The USCG is an awesome branch in which to serve. Semper Paratus... Always Ready. :)
Freddy's fries are the best!!! I'm in NC too
NICE. My wife likes their custard. Of course the grandkids like all things ice cream.
@goldenstatepicker I always get the Patty Melt. Yea any ice cream is good!!
I hear ya on boxes. I had 2 odd shaped ones that had been in my way for weeks, but glad I hung onto them. Sold a lamp this week and they were perfect to cut and resize for that big MCM lamp.
Have a great evening!
Thank you! You just answered like 100 book questions I had 😊
We have a Freddys. In Hatfield, Pa.
It's not quite that black and white, but I basically agree. I have been collecting and selling books (esp first editions) since the late 1970s. You are correct that 1st printing IS the desirable one, and esp with no price clipping. But condition is EVERYTHING, especially the dust jacket (meaning intact, without chipping, tears, toning etc.). It's not just the numbers, esp for Silmarillion, which came out after Tolkien's death and was well publicised (so people were looking for it in 1977). I just sold a 1st edition, 7th printing on eBay for $40, and it was price clipped. I documented it all and explained it in my description so it was clear, but it was also pristine otherwise, and the map was attached (usually it's torn, absent, or detached) -- again condition is everything, it's not just numbers. In addition, later printings of Tolkien have value. Even 1960s editions can be in the $100s -- depending on condition. It's helpful to compare pricing OUTSIDE eBay, esp for antiquarian bookstores on line. That's really your competition for collectible editions.
I was giving a GENERAL over view of 1st edition. Like everything condition of a GOLF club is also a factor for what it sells for. I was really trying to help people under stand it can say FIRST PRINTING but you have to look a bit farther. Many thanks for watching.
@@goldenstatepicker Understood. 🙂 I was trying to amplify what makes a good copy.
I have a question for you, Mike. How is it that some sellers on eBay are able to sell books for $3.50 with free shipping, when media mail costs $4.68 or so? I literally got some free books that I can't sell because the same books are being sold at a buck less than it would cost me to even ship 'em! What kind of anti-competitive voodoo is this? Money laundering, maybe? The books are just going to end up in the dumpster, because there's no room on my "death pile" for albatrosses. It's a sad state of affairs when your ROI on $0 is a negative integer! If you know what's up, please elucidate.
I'm not Mike but I do know some companies have a business account with the post office which gives them the ability to offer free or a cheaper rate to their customers. Also some listings bring such a huge profit sellers can list other stuff with free shipping and it doesn't hurt them financially. Though the book is only 3.50 most buyers will buy other things making a $3.50 sale into a $50 dollar sale. I agree with you about sellers selling stuff dirt cheap, it grinds my gears. Tip , always always be sure to comp before picking up even if it's free,don't wait until listing time to discover some idiot is selling it on eBay or Mercari for 10 cents with free shipping and a bonus $50 gift card. Lol.
JewelsNcrime said it best below. There is some angle to it all.
@@goldenstatepicker It seems like we used to have antitrust laws in this country that aimed to prevent the little guy from being squeezed out of the mart of competitive commerce. 🤷♂
Freddy's is in Greeley, CO.
So they are moving west a bit.
@@goldenstatepicker There are opening multiple locations in WA state.
Hey Mike I'm from Texas and the best burger joint here used to be called Whataburger until Freddy's came into town I just ate Freddy's tonight it's like my favorite place great minds think alike!
I get the jalapeño burger.
