    Dude, you need to have Alan look at them books and all those magazines. Also the vintage Star Wars and Star Trek toys some command big money. Some of them are worth more than others. Congratulations on this unit. It is a gold mine.

    1) the books probably were bought in a library overstock sale. (My local library sells overstock and donated books once a month, and they have a ton of Star Trek books)
    2) if you need a place to put books you don't think are worth the effort to sell online, look up where a little free library is. You might need to donate to multiple because of the amount of books you're getting, but that's a good place to donate excess books to. (The one at my college is actually relatively big, and that's what I do with the books I'm done with)

  • @SusanBishop555
    @SusanBishop555 57 минут назад +1

    I have bought books and audio books from the library. They would clear stuff out to make room. So I have many things that still have library info on them. I did not steal em! My favorite pop is Diet Cherry Pepsi. I prefer Pepsi...it is sweeter. I am enjoying watching this unit! I love Star Trek. You have a ton of records...I do know who most are. But I only have Rock/Pop albums. Not much for the others. But people will love those! WHO BUYS THE BEST... WADE AND ASHLEY. Who works their butts off! Wade, Ashley and Grandma Ventures. 😁🤗

    Someone probably already posted about the Farmers’ Almanac. People like to buy them for the year they were born. Take a look inside…you’ll be amazed at what they contain. Keeping mind the original purchaser would buy one at the beginning of a new year and refer to it all year.

      The wax can be used for ice skates, sleds, snow skies, skateboard wheels etc,and still melted down to seal preserves. Boiling purifies it.

    Scrapbook and junk jurnal crafters will buy old papers, ledgers, old books, tickets, bills of lading, any paper. The more fadded and grungy, the better.❤
    You need to higher some one to research and do your listings. Your missing out on potentially thousands by lotting things when an individual sale will bring more. Lot up the things that won't bring as much. You should also have a booth in resellers mall or even a brick and morter. All the things you save up for your yard sale would more than stock it. Plus it would be a way to store it and make money at the same time.

Youngsters these days don't collect they are minimalistic electronic gamers sadly. I did get a bit excited when I saw quantum leap books 😅 and data from star trek. You'll sell the thread especially cotton it's so expensive per spool these days. The large holed rugs with the wool /yarn are a latch hook kits. Ref (1:33:18) You guys rock.
