Pete, that Milwaukee drill was the best 1/2" medium duty hammer drill ever made. I would take it any day over some light weight cordless tools doing daily contractor work. Almost impossible to wear out and takes a beating. A premium level tool worth good money
Officially my new favorite RUclips channel. Currently on an all out, full bkown , binge if all your videos. This is RUclips at its purest and best, no corny cuts every 15 seconds, just a guy sgaring his day to day experience with his busines. Somehow it turns out to be naturally and like, organically interesting and even educational. Brilliant stuff man.
The company sent 30-36 million dollars worth of Funco Pops to a landfill in Ar. so they didn't have to pay rent on shipping containers that were full of them that weren't selling to save on rent just a few months ago.
@@angelaame6148 But if the company gave them away it would drop the value of the rest of them they kept. Remember companies are in business to make money not to make people/kids happy. Lots of companies been dumping products. A company dropped off new faucets at the scrap yard I deal with and when I made a comment to the one guy he said the company is bringing another semi load tomorrow. They were selling their warehouse and going to ship on demand and no longer stock piling extras to save money.
I know this discussion came up before with other ytubers on other channels and quite a few agree they should have gave them away instead but it was a business decision to dump them.
oops I worded that wrong. Companies are now making products as they are ordered, no more making products ahead of time and ship on demand, they are now waiting for companies to order then make and ship the product.
This must be the best video ever! Loved the didgeridoo! (Especially because I'm an Aussie, and I lived on a 1 million acre cattle station way back in 1973, and danced in a real corroboree once.) 🙃
I guess you may have already found this out about your Gripman's bell, but I thought I would share this with you: "The Conductor rings a small bell to communicate with the Grip Operator. The Grip Operator rings a large bell to warn pedestrians and other vehicles." So you had conductor's bells in the past, but the one you just bought was a larger Gripman's bell.
They are also known as a demijohn or a "lady jeanne" - I got an airlock for mine, which is glass, and would make about 5 gallons of wine at a time in it when I lived on land that was loaded with blackberries.
Pete, you are such a cool guy... You run a very respectable business. You're a good man. So honest and direct. regarding the FUNKS-- stay away from buying them anymore. Too many on the market.
My mother is a native San Franciscan and a musician with perfect pitch; she says this is definitely the sound of the cable car she took to and from school.
I never got into Funko Pops because they just seemed like a dumb fad. Everyone I know who buys them never actually opens up the boxes. This means a lot of people are taking good care for them because it's more of an investment than it is for enjoyment. The market is saturated like you said but that saturation also includes a huge market of unopened, good condition, 2nd hand sellers. So yes I think it's like Bennie Babies but even worse since people didn't always take care of their bennie babies.
Some people like the "glassed window" look though. I don't look at the funko pops as an investment I just think they look nice and neat in a box that is the same size as the other ones
As a dj,those random wooden instruments are insane base and leads for most ,dirtiest, distorted,base lines, layered with sub base,at same time sample it as lead layer so kn.those are hot,and can go fast and high.
Love your honesty and treatment of customers as human beings , I am positive you have given people more than you probably should’ve on different occasions when you knew in your heart that they were in a rough spot in their lives !!! And the fact you take the time out of your life to show people that their priceless treasure hasn’t been worth as much currently and your so honest that should you sell something you purchased for way more than expected you contact the seller if can and share the unexpected profit !!! Also I believe that I am blessed with your cats blood sister , same manner and all , never gets in any trouble but loves sucking up all my air conditioning and heat , such a special cat that obviously knows it’s a Queen of goodness !!! Much Respect from Oklahoma !!!
That cable car bell sure sounds just like those used on San Francisco cable cars! You should definitely hang it on a wall in the checkstand area which your employees could ring to call an employee to the checkstand. When I worked for Trader Joe’s back in the 1970’s, we had a ships bell in the checkstand (we only had one large checkstand with multiple cash registers back then) to call another checker to checkstand (one ding), manager (two dings) or box boy (three dings). They still use this system today.
My spouse worked for a company in the 1980s that manufactured trolleys and we ended up with two trolley bells. I sold both on Ebay and shipped them. I just can't remember what I sold them for. I believe at least $100 but could have been more.
Hi Pete, You have the best reseller channel on RUclips!!! You deserve God's blessings to you and your family since you are so compassionate and the most fair individual regarding your pricing. You are so honest with people that come in the shop and I totally understand that you need to make a living also. It's not very easy to maintain the shop since you have many taxes to pay to keep the ship running. It always perplexes me that people think that every $50.00 dollars you take in it's yours to keep. I myself was in business and I went through the same thing. Keep up the great work with the AWESOME Channel and May God Bless you and your family with prosperity. You also are very lucky to have great employees that are also very compassionate and knowledgeable on most items. I'm addicted to your channel and can't wait for your videos. Cheers for now and continued success. You most definitely deserve it.
I identified Pops as junk as soon as they came out. Any product made to be collected usually is no longer collectable after a time. Every hobby store, garage sale and game store I've been in have walls of them that I never see anyone give a second glance towards.
I think for Funko Pops, is that when it comes to reselling, it's probably more sustainable to only buy and resell the exclusive/rare ones. The ones that, like you said, had limited releases. All the other ones are going to forever be stuck in the $5-$15 range. If I had a lot of people consistently buying the cheaper ones, it could be worth it. I still know a lot of people who collect and resell Funkos. It's usually not their main source of income, they usually sell other stuff along side the Funkos, but I honestly think that Funkos are going to be around for a while. If I were reselling funkos, I would stay away from the ones you can get at your common retailers like target and walmart and all those places.
Yeah, I remember the Hot Wheel brand new in package went for a lot of money. I think upside down car went for $7,000. Pretty cool stuff came to the shop. I do like the Bell. pretty cool history. Thanks for the update on the property. Thanks again Pete. Funko Pops. Yeah, I don't know if it will hold up or not? I used to buy them and quit cause you pay a lot for it at the start and then you stuck with them forever seems like. If they sell that one thing but you know to buy them and think you make a few dollars it just seems like it stay there forever.
7:41 I picked up a bell a little larger than that from an estate sale for 50 and flipped it for 450. It was more like a boxing bell.. more low profile than that one...the hammer hit the outside of the bell.
perfect buy on the bell l I seen a couple of smaller ones in slight better condition going for 350 never have I seen one that size just because of that the damage it shouldn't really matter I could see you having no problem flipping that for 480 to 520.
Peter- I think the market is flooded with the FunCo items. I am seeing them here for like $2.00 at garage sales. In my opinion it may be worth buying very select ones and blow out the rest. As you said, it's likely becoming like Beanie babies. I am seeing them here at G sales for anywhere from free to a max of $5.00, $3.00 being the average. None of which I would consider "desirable" are turning up. Just my $.02 worth. I love how the bell didn't even faze Sweetie. My cats ran when they heard that bell ring. Take Care. I wish I were not so far away that I am unable to visit your shop.
Peter! I am in Madera, CA. I enjoy the content on your channel. When I heard about your cabin in Door County. My grandfather was from Sisterbay, in Door County, WI. it is the tip of the thumb. Give Honey and Ruby a tickle from me.

I lived in San Francisco at one time ago,the bell is like those Brass Orient Express Lamp,that bell was mass reproduced for Tourist in those cities you mentioned,you got taken on that.
I think you’re right about the Funko Pops because I watch pickers at yard sales and other places, And I don’t see them bringing much anymore,Like you said they just put out so many,But to like you said there’s a very few that will still bring a little good money,.But they’re far and few between
The cable-car bell would be a cool door bell, let's keep it real. When I was a kid my parents used to keep a bell outside and they would ring it when it was time for us to come home. And I grew up in the 80s and 90s, not really that long ago.
11:52 Hey, Peter; another great video. Frankly, I think Funko Pops are dying just like Beanie Babies did and apparently Funko is drastically reducing its Pops output due to waning sales. I think your $5 to $15 price range, averaging $10 each, is perfectly reasonable compared to what so many unrealistic online sellers are asking, but there are so many surplus Funko Pops now and for every movie, TV show, nostalgic TV commercial, etc. to the point that I think the market is saturated. I suppose if one was to buy any Funko Pops at all, stick to iconic horror movie characters perhaps or movie icons that physical media collectors might want for their media room shelves or man caves, but there are just too many of those things. The choice is up to you, of course.
look out for the next big one but get in early ha, maybe even start a trend with a boxed small collectable, iv,e noticed thiers always something on the horizen coming through ,maybe a mixed display with different models of stuff , good luck with that one Pete
Boa tarde ? Watching from Brasil .... you sure sound like a Brasilian ? Nice shop you have there, never a boring day I am sure ! Ciao from Florianopolis I miss flea markets, garage sales, rumaging through Goodwill and Salvation Army AND having my own sailboat to enjoy on the west coast of Florida DO ENJOY driving cool european cars here like Alfas and Fiats not seen in the US
Gr8 haul Pete..😮 That SF Street Trolley Bell is a very cool piece..😍 Love it.. As far as Funko Pop's I personally would'nt buy any because the only ones even worth getting are the limited edition and autographed ones..🤔😥 Take care guy's..👍💕🔥👊
The last few flea markets I've been to had 2-3 different vendors selling almost nothing but Funko Pops, tables upon tables full. Seems like there's an awful lot of them on the market. I've never paid attention to them, never had an interest. I even see them from time to time at the thrift stores.
I really think the Funko pops are just oversaturated - their own org I believe dumped a ton of them. I personally think if you buy them for a dollar, sell for $5-10 seems reasonable. They are super cool, and I like a few of them, but the days of them being "really expensive" is gone IMO unless someone is willing to pay of course!
The only people who say stay with Funko pops are those that have invested in them. There will be the odd ones that hold value but but I would stay away from them now, it's a fad.
I know this was a while ago but Funko is definitely done. I have a good friend who sells vintage games at conventions and people who used to sell those over retail are now bundling them for next to nothing, plus Funko sent like $30million worth of them to a landfill because of excessive overstock
I am a funko reseller on whatnot and just started reselling last year. First i started with my personal collection then only new and exclusive releases. Shortly transitioned into older gen and exclusives only. As an up and comer it can feel saturated and harder to sell now a days. Just like pokemon people flock to the funkos as if its a "quick easy buck" then those same people rush to sell things and make no profit therefore crashing the market. So many pops arent worth much anymore unless theyre convention exclusives or "grails" which feel as if everyone only collects the same 5 pops lol. But they arent dying definitely benefits the box stores/ brick and mortar sellers who may have a distributor to cut costs.
Pete, you are correct. Funko’s are just novelty now. Not worth anything nor will they be. I never understood them in the first place. You will start seeing them in Flea Markets for folks that used to have them and trying to relive their youth when they did have them. Oh, love the channel BTW
As far as Funko POPS! goes that is what helped me start my resale business in 2018 I found my self starting to collect them and thought the market was way to saturated and they were producing way to many so I sold everyone I had in about 2020. I am amazed that it has held up as long as it has. I have bought some since after checking comps. If I were you I would purchase the old ones from 2015 and older after checking comps of course but I assume anything after that isn't very limited will hold no value for very long.
The look on Peter’s face when his guy was playing the diggerie do was priceless.👍👍🇨🇦
Are you serious or joking, I can't be sure, It wasn't real the sound was edited in 😂

DO ENJOY driving cool european cars here like Alfas and Fiats not seen in the US
Gr8 haul Pete..😮 That SF Street Trolley Bell is a very cool piece..😍 Love it.. As far as Funko Pop's I personally would'nt buy any because the only ones even worth getting are the limited edition and autographed ones..🤔😥 Take care guy's..👍💕🔥👊
"Hey Peter", your gonna have fun getting those caps out of that bottle.
The last few flea markets I've been to had 2-3 different vendors selling almost nothing but Funko Pops, tables upon tables full. Seems like there's an awful lot of them on the market. I've never paid attention to them, never had an interest. I even see them from time to time at the thrift stores.
Where in Door County Pete? We have a family cabin just west on Maiden Lake in Nicolette Forest, been to door county a bunch of times too. Zdrowko!
I really think the Funko pops are just oversaturated - their own org I believe dumped a ton of them. I personally think if you buy them for a dollar, sell for $5-10 seems reasonable. They are super cool, and I like a few of them, but the days of them being "really expensive" is gone IMO unless someone is willing to pay of course!
Interesting clientele..
I bet every one who walks in that door can play that Didgeridoo masterfully 🤣
The only people who say stay with Funko pops are those that have invested in them. There will be the odd ones that hold value but but I would stay away from them now, it's a fad.
like beanie babies
The bell make a very nice sound.
I know this was a while ago but Funko is definitely done. I have a good friend who sells vintage games at conventions and people who used to sell those over retail are now bundling them for next to nothing, plus Funko sent like $30million worth of them to a landfill because of excessive overstock
Subscribed today. All because of the “jog”! Haha
Great entertainment on this channel!
I think you’re right about the Pops.
I am a funko reseller on whatnot and just started reselling last year. First i started with my personal collection then only new and exclusive releases. Shortly transitioned into older gen and exclusives only. As an up and comer it can feel saturated and harder to sell now a days. Just like pokemon people flock to the funkos as if its a "quick easy buck" then those same people rush to sell things and make no profit therefore crashing the market. So many pops arent worth much anymore unless theyre convention exclusives or "grails" which feel as if everyone only collects the same 5 pops lol. But they arent dying definitely benefits the box stores/ brick and mortar sellers who may have a distributor to cut costs.
9:05 peter " no way dude" Wow hes good!!
Your project is unbelievably cool! (Barn/Cabin)
very few funkos go up in value over time, and you can almost never tell which ones will be sought after in a few years, its a gamble.
There is nothing better then getting out of town every once in a while. We have one.
Pete, you are correct. Funko’s are just novelty now. Not worth anything nor will they be. I never understood them in the first place. You will start seeing them in Flea Markets for folks that used to have them and trying to relive their youth when they did have them. Oh, love the channel BTW
As far as Funko POPS! goes that is what helped me start my resale business in 2018 I found my self starting to collect them and thought the market was way to saturated and they were producing way to many so I sold everyone I had in about 2020. I am amazed that it has held up as long as it has. I have bought some since after checking comps. If I were you I would purchase the old ones from 2015 and older after checking comps of course but I assume anything after that isn't very limited will hold no value for very long.
Funko pops are going to bomb this year.
Hi Pete! I live in Florida do you have a website to order from or is it in store only?
Yes
