    It’s really heartwarming when you get a memory with some of the items. You can tell with the telling that it meant something to the person at that certain time in their life. The closer the item, the more person the memory. I’d consider it a bonus that goes with what you do.

      My kids have said they don't care anything about money, they're just going to call in something like "GOT JUNK" and have them haul all my stuff away. I'd rather sell it to someone so it has a chance to stay out of the landfill and potentially go to someone who will enjoy it as much as I. That's why I'm selling a lot of my stuff on ebay right now, so the kids don't have as much to deal with, I have a neater house, and others can enjoy my things.

My faves - the leather postcards!!! and neat skate board (so tropical). Another good one Anthoney!

There might be a N Scale train club in your area where you could sell them to or at least advertise with them. cheers

  • @Kathryn4268
    @Kathryn4268 3 года назад

    Fenton is a rose bowl should fetch decent money, it’s very pretty and since it’s a uranium custard glass and it glows it will fetch more than a regular Fenton Rose Bowl, and that piece of carnival glass should be worth a nice sum because it is not one of the newer ones made in the 60s and beyond it’s earlier than that, it has a nice pattern and really nice iridescence. I’m sure when you look up comps on eBay you’ll be pleased. Since glassware is hot right now it’s definitely the right time to be flipping it :-)

    Former Hoosier here, now living in Dixie. Just a heads up, if you can ever get out to Amish Country on a Friday morning (especially around Berne) the garage sales are out of this world. Amish clothing, vintage hats, handmade amish items, old quilts, rustic tools - it's literally insane what you can get for next to nothing. Your videos are nostalgic. Hope to move back to Indiana eventually.

    I don't know about anyone else but I love hearing the story's behind each object that is being sold from the elderly but then it hurts me to pay so little for something they had so long and loved so I always end up giving a bit more than what they were asking . Because I feel that the storyline behind it that they tell is worth a price as well .

    Amazing things are still too be had. I had surely the best weekend of my yard sale finds. Not an expert on vintage chainsaws by any means just know that older ones have the potential to be worth a few bucks. Picked one up pulled the cord n it was stuck kinda bummed me out if it wasn't stuck I would have gladly paid the $20 he wanted for it. When I set it down he sweetened the deal with 3 additional newer quality saws that were not seized but didn't exactly fire right up all four for $20 figure I couldn't lose. And I hit a jackpot as that particular model Stihl saw was not super old it is however super rare and non running display models go for $500 they run $800+

    Awesome deal with that box with trains and tracks! I wonder how cheap you bought those cassete tapes. They are getting super valuable right now.

    The pin with the photo is a I.D. badge. I have my dad's I.D. badge when he worked in a factory in the 40's.

    Leather postcards are hit or miss, but you will not lose money, may have doubled. Easy to store and ship
