    I love it when people are honest. when someone asks for an amount of money and you know you will score well on it and you give more , thats total respect and makes you a very decent person in my opinion . Its only a 10 and you know you will make decent money , but , you don`t have to do that , thats just generosity , and giving the lad some money too . Thats just pure class brother . Much respect !

      "Hey, do you want to just throw that old thing in with it? Might use it for spares or something? May as well take it off your hands while I'm here - going to another sale soon, so may not have cash later !"

    • @dominantdaddy6939
      @dominantdaddy6939 3 года назад +1

      I used to do a lot of flea markets myself, not selling but looking. Yard sales are easier for the seller because you can just put it all out there and not have to haul it around. I travel throughout the US rather extensively for work and many of my off days I comb through antique stores looking for deals. I’m not a seller, I’m a collector and while I’m not motivated by profit occasionally I come across something that is too cheap in price and too valuable to pass up. On a recent trip to Illinois I found a massive shop located in what was at one time a train depot and spent hours there. Considering I’d flown and not driven my eye was mostly on things I could take on an airplane with me, but they had a gorgeous intact National Cash Register from 1913 I really wanted. The price was fairly accommodating compared to what it would go for where I’m from - like less than half. However, in searching high and low through the place I came across a couple of railroad stock certificates from 1908 that bore the signature of the 25th President of the US. Not a mimeograph, but a genuine signature. I did some quick internet work to compare the signatures and make sure it was legit, and bought the pair for $50. I turned around and sold them for $2200, which was enough for me to take the time to drive back out with a vehicle and purchase the register. $50 and a weekend of my time got me something that would have likely run me close to $5000 had I found it where I live.

    Man... this is so nostalgic...

I mostly had G1 Transformers and Ninja turtles but I also had a lot of the toys and cards you showed here, i.e The He-Man toy. Unfortunately my family had to suddenly move to Germany due to my mothers side of the family and my brother ended up selling my dog and everything in our storage due to his addictions. I never got to see any of my things again nor my dog. I know I'll never be able to regain my childhood, hold and play with my toys or my dog ever again but watching you look through these places is like digging up long lost childhood memories, diggin up some tears along with them haha.

Those screw down cases are nothing but trouble, they are known to cause issues with paper loss and overall damage to the cards. I'd suggest taking them out and putting them in a 35pt one touch with a penny sleeve on the top to protect the surface. Top loaders are also good for protection but don't display as nice. Just a tip / heads up. Great finds on the ADAM Bombs, you've definitely made your money back and then some there.

I was so angry when she told me. I had won those in marble games from other kids, they were my trophies! I looked up the value not too long ago and was shocked at how much my entire, in excellent condition because I kept them in a case (trophies), were going for. $10,000 at the time but those were brand new and mine were used and not in the original plastic. I immediately phoned my mom and asked her if she knew how much those cards were worth today.... she did not. 😊 I told her what I found, expecting some shock or surprise... nope... All I heard on the other end of the line was a short ...hmm. followed by, well, those cards are gross, I don't know who would want those things. What?! So you're not even a little sorry you threw them away?! Nope... they were disgusting. Why you even like them, I have no idea.
    Thanks mom!

      It's didn't matter why her child liked them all that should have mattered is her kid liked it. Blows my mind how some parents can be so selfish and self centered

      Thats like when i found out my mom tossed out my Pokemon cards when we moved when i was 12. I know for a fact i had all the good orignals like Pikachu and Squirtle, etc. They were mint i left them in a pokemon hard cover book with a heavy duty plastic inserts. Not sure why those had to go but not any baseball cards? Never made sense to me lol.

      Reminds me of when my mother sold my Alpha and Beta sets of Power Nine for $200.
      That will always piss me off. She scoffed at the notion that they were worth anything.

      I had one this year. Stumbled across a sale that hadn't been advertised on Craigslist. Tons of PS2 games (yawn), tons of Xbox 360 games (yawn), tons of Gamecube games and a console (I"LL TAKE THEM ALL HOW MUCH???) Had to drive to an ATM and get cash. Selling the last games now. Had the best ones resurfaced. I should get about 8x what I paid.

    really cool how he wanted to help this guy with his antique and online store. He was not put off by that admission at all. Some folks will immediately go on the defensive if they know youre buying to resell.

      You'll even get people watching this video who are offended that he didn't go back later and give him more money for the garbage pail kids. Everyone has the same chance to research items before putting them out for sale. Giving anything more than they're asking is going above and beyond.

    I would say take those out of the screw down cases. They tend to alter the cards surface which won’t grade well. I’d put em in a one touch magnetic case
