    Kevin, believe it or not, those baskets at 7:05 are potentially big money. Flower/herb gathering wicker baskets ... sell between about $30 and $50 for many, sometimes more. Those looked larger - or at least one of them was - so solid profit there.

    Back in the 90s, I went to an estate sale that advertised "records" . They had one record in a box - I said how can you advertise records when you have only one? "Oh, go in the shed, it's full of records". It was 110 degrees in that shed, and I spent about two hours in there looking through thousands of records. That was a hot one! I bought about 200 pieces for $35, about $2000 worth at mid-90s prices.
    You've got to sweat a little if you want to find good stuff.

    • @readysetsleep
      @readysetsleep 4 года назад

      One estate sales agent was notorious for asking for high prices, because he would just keep the items people would leave and the pile would grow. Found out that he would then auction those picked items for good money, or ebay them himself using some 3rd party. He had a fancy show room warehouse too. Honestly the home owners just want to cleared out, so they can sell the home, and not be stuck with more bills.

      Ones like that you go with your gut and grab whatever you think may hold value and pile it up then do comps. Around here it's way worse at just about every sale. Literally, people will rampage through rooms, tossing stuff (and sometimes people) out of the way.

  • @Laz2022
    @Laz2022 4 года назад +2

    It takes some tools, but that pencil sharpener is worth about $15 and the bench grinder is worth at least $50. Also, don't overlook full skeins of yarn. Yarn can fetch really good prices, I've sold a skein of yarn for $25 before.
    As always, great vid and I hope the family is well.

    You had to look EVERYWHERE at that sale. Things were in unexpected places, inside other things, under things, etc. I could have spent an entire day there and not seen it all, but what a joyful day it would have been. Thank you for picking up the things you dropped and for putting the plush back where you found it. So many people today don't take responsibility for anything and it is so refreshing to see people do what they should. I worked in retail and so many people decide they don't want something and just dump it anywhere they happen to be. It makes the store look junky, and, despite picking things up all day, it would take about an hour after closing time to set the departments back to order so everything would look nice the next morning. Too many people are lazy and/or don't take responsibility. Thank you for what you do. Where did you get your camera harness, please? Is it just for a phone or camera too? Thanks. The collection of toy plates, spoons, etc. looks like it came right out of my childhood. I had those exact ones...still do, but will be selling as we clear out to downsize.

I ended up purchasing an antique type writer which they said was a child’s toy. I bought it for $5 flipped it next day for $534.00 plus ship. It was not a child’s type writer it was just antique.

      @@capt.americamom7101 I don't know if it's the most valuable pick, but it was the most memorable. Found a listing on FB Marketplace that was just titled "estate" with a pic of the front of the house and no description besides the address, which happened to be about 6 blocks from the house (Yippee!). It was the lady's grand daughter and she was totally overwhelmed and only had help from her grand aunt and uncle, who were pretty decrepit themselves. I immediately started finding stuff and piling, even found a 1942 HS yearbook. I spent an hour in the house, 2 hours in the garage wading through old doll boxes and trash, and an hour in the attic literally crawling over raccoon poop... and I loved every minute of it. lol. I got tons of stuff, filled my Jetta up twice. I got (17) 1984-85 Cabbage Patch dolls, a cap gun, models and games from the 1940-50's, etc. It was a pile bigger than the sofa and when she said $100 for everything I couldn't get my money out fast enough. I made about $2000 off that.
