Hi, Karen - you have a beautiful Talavera planter there. The signature “H. EN MEX” is for “Hecho en Mexico”.. just beautiful!
I was just about to comment that as well!
Was about to comment the same thing, lol!!
Hello. I think the same. H. En Mex. "Hecho en Mexico "
Great video. I too loved the Woodburn.
I'm coming here to thank you! a loooong time ago I saw you buy a 100% cashmere Men's Overcoat. I bought one for $11 and just sold it for full price of $180. all thanks to watching you recommend them! so...... THANKS!!!
Yay!!
The wave picture is a print of The Great Wave off Kanagawa . Original is a woodblock print by the Japanese artist Hokusai. It was published sometime between 1829 and 1833. Very famous picture.
Great research you did!
You are 100% correct.
I do pick up single mugs....they sell...nice ones...easy ship..good profit.
I like to shop at thrift stores. Always have. When I was a kid, I'd go with my mom and grandmother. But these days our Goodwills are SO much higher than the prices that I see on the merchandise in your Pennsylvania stores! I envy you your various stores and the quality of goods that you find. I wish we had better/more thrift store options. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful blue powder jar!
I love your videos and learn so much. The fact that you didn’t know the $4 pot said ‘made is Mexico’ is so trivial compared to you being able to spot a Coogi which most of us have never heard of.
Never change, please keep sharing your wealth of information.
Great Art,would have bought the Japanese lithograph, lovely.
Definitely a Beautiful pc 💞
I don’t think you should have separated the blue powder and perfume atomizer set.
I loved the first set of dishes in this addition
I loved that wooden fishing picture- my father was a fisherman, so that is something I definitely would have enjoyed. I also loved the beachfront watercolor & thought even at $20, there was room for profit, however, I could be wrong. I understand you can't buy everything though, so it is all good. 😊
Thank you for a great video, your time is recognized & appreciated. xo from Oregon💕
Hi Karen, Hhahahha "it really has to be a SPECIAL pig" LOL. Too funny. .Thanks for the laugh. You are just too cute.
You are so very generous sharing your knowledge and thought processes. Thank you so much! You are the best!
Don't know if anyone said.... but, it's called a double gourd vase. Pretty!
Hi Karen! I found the same bull this weekend, but with the opposite horn broken! I was so disappointed. I actually thought, I bet Karen would have looked this up too. LOL.
Finally, Karen! I have been very discouraged - not finding anything at our Goodwills in my area. I went to an Estate Sale and got 15 pieces for $71 several Fitz and Floyds, milk glass, Carnival Glass, 2 wooden purses from the 50's, Acro Agate miniatures, copper - a fine haul! Yay!!!!
Great finds!! So in love with that Coogi sweater! I hope to find one “in the wild” someday.
Can anyone shed more light on the Coogi brand? I know Australua, but is there anything else that makes Coogi special? I have a navy wool Coogi jacket with lots of shiny brass doodads on it that just will not sell. Thanks!
@@kathyaldridge7171 I think the draw is more to the funky knitted “Cosby” sweaters like the one in the vid. I’ve found kids Coogi and jeans but passed because of that.
What is it about PIGS, they are sooo freaking cute! 😂
Love the sweater!!!💞
It's funny how old is new, I don't think I've owned coogi in the past but ty to your videos I bought a pair unfortunately they are still sitting on ebay. Always be on the lookout for mom jeans, I thought the goal was to not look like you are wearing mom jeans lol.
Karen, you should sell t-shirts that say, “Do we love a good______(Ex: thrift store)? Yes, we do!” I’ll bet your followers would buy them!
I know you don't want to pick up dishes, but beside the atomizer there were a few pieces of blue onion dishes. Those are very collectable and vintage. People are always looking for replacement pieces. Just an FYI for next time.
Hi Karen, those cinnamon plastic bowls you picked up looked like Tupperware bowls. A set of 4 usually sells between $30-$35, just FYI for future reference. Light and easy to ship too.
After a very quick look at the mark under the cow with the chipped foot, it looked like a piece of Mercer tile from Doylestown. Definitely would have been worth picking up if not damaged
i found a similar sweater!!! Hairy Tornado did too recently. Love it!!
Love the pigs!😁 The Coogi sweater is an awesome find. Another great haul!! Have a great week🥰
Happy Sunday morning 🔆that wooden picture could of been framed & work well in man cave, cabin etc. Pretty 3 pc. bowls/plates/drip glaze vase was cool. Love the sweater! Thank you & have a great day.🔆⭐⚡🌟
Good morning Karen, thank you for all you show on your videos. Very helpful. Have a great day.
Just to let you know Karen ..maybe it was a slip of the tongue but you said mercernised cotton...Im pretty sure you meant mercerised cotton. It was a process that was done to cotton in England and invented by John Mercer in the big industrial era when cotton was a massive industry in Lancashire England. I live near Mercer park which was donated to the town by John Mercer!
Wonderful watercolor!!
I just Found your channel and subscribed. :) I am a reseller in Lancaster! So howdy Neighbor! :)
Pigs make me happy too. 😀
Love the Mexican pot. Looks in the style of ones my Mom had in the 1950's - sweater is great. Good find.
With a oink oink here & a oink oink there! Karen! Are you ready for a Lil Pig Farm??? So cute! Wow! Beautiful Coogi!!
Funny .. I was picturing Karen w some little piglets running around ❤
I saw some bird ornaments with similar “fiber optic” looking tail that were selling fairly high. I think they said spun glass tails but they looked more like fiber optic like tails to me but it was online and not seen in person.
Hi Karen you can find a black light at harbor freight in Lancaster. That’s where we got ours. ❤️😍
I would have loved that wooden nautical scene....as I'm from MARBLEHEAD, MA...
Hi Karen! Always enjoying your videos thanking you for your fun shopping from Japan! The picture with waves was designed by Hokusai and the name of the series is called Fugaku Hyakkei. Hope it helps!
My town! Actually, the Goodwill is in Thorndale, down the road almost from me. It's on the borderline of Downingtown and Thorndale. I haven't been there for over a year (I'm trying to stay away from buying vintage wood jewelry boxes to fix up and paint). It was always a bit disorganized, but it seems they have fixed it up, and also hung the mugs up, which is a great idea. Smart to pass up the Japanese print, which is one of the most popular of Japanese prints. It's Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa. Waterloo is Waterloo Gardens. It was an upscale garden center. It was in Exton. I used to live down the street (waaaay down the street) growing up. I spent many hours there. It's been demolished, and now townhouses have built on the ground. :-(.
Good morning Karen
Hi Karen, what nice items that you found! So glad that you and Roger are thrifting together, it’s awesome! Cheers, Pat
Hi Karen & Roger! I enjoyed this video, looked like a nice Good Will.You picked up some nice things. Yay for the COOGI sweater, have not found one yet in the wild! Take care & stay safe. Connie
I live near it. It's ok, now over-priced, I think, but I haven't been there for year.
What about the swan on the bottom shelf in the wodden isle?
Karen, I totally agree with you about the glass that glows. If it’s a nice piece, Who cares if it glows? And it doesn’t bring any more money.
😂😆😂
I’ve done well selling West Elm vases. Good score
Thanks for another great video! I’m always learning new things from you! I know you don’t pick up plates but I love it and have made $$$ selling plates!
Enjoyed!
The bull looks like Treasure Craft.
That sweater! Wow!
Great video Karen! Thank you for all the time you spend. I always learn from your videos. Thank you!
Love the Talavera pot and that Coogi👀! I also love finding west elm items to sell - I ended up keeping one very heavy vase to store my rolls of brown packing paper❤️
You are sure a beautiful lady an a hard worker at that, l love your program I have learnt alot from you. Thank you love your saying flea bites, and those pigs 🐖😋
Great finds! TFS!♥️. Have a wonderful day.
I dont think people would buy two mother mugs if it was a gift
After watching this video I found this same Japanese print at Salvation army on a large scarf. Would love to send it to you.
Good Morning🌞 the vase/pot is Mexican Talavera. . Beautiful piece! !
H. En Mex (hecho en mexico)
Beautiful haul! Thanks!
Hi, Karen! On a personal standpoint (NOT as a reseller), I would have grabbed the woodburned fishing shack for a couple of reasons: A. It would look great in a shore house! B. It reminds me of the iconic "Motif No. 1" in Rockport, Mass.
That sweater is fabulous. I love it.
The bowls were Fleur Rouge…they can sell for quite a bit depending on the pattern. Just something to keep in mind:):)
Great video
Awesome score on the COOGI sweater! I still haven't found one of those!
Alba H. en Mex is Alba hecho en Mexico. I figured it out. Beautiful piece.
On the green pot, it stands for Made in Mexico in spanish. Hecho En Mexico.
Hello Karen!! Piggys were cute 🐖 🐷 🐽
Hi Karen, see you in Vegas! So happy to hear your going. Safe travels.
Can’t wait to meet you!
I think the fish sign could be nice in a cabin
Amazing sweater!!
H en mex means made in Mexico 🤣
You are right. I know many resellers who pick up made in Italy pieces and they don’t make much when they sell.
Just because something is made in Italy doesn’t always mean it’s worth the money time spent buying it and shipping it.
the red glass is Arococ, France and the colored and patterned glasses can get decent $
Hi. Love your videos! But I'm wondering why the amber color glass aren't popular 🤔 all the goodwill videos I watch everyone always over looks them and the barrel mugs with wood handles. I love the brown color wish more liked them so they didn't end up in the landfill. Love what your saving.
Alba hecho en Mexico! Lol
The Alba pot says
H En Mexico for Made in Mexico 🙂
I want that coogi 🥺
The Japanese art is a very common print sold for cheap even on Amazon. All these stores have been doing some stupid prices with the art pieces. It's very annoying.
The small green glass plate is called a “Cup Plate” they have a great history. I believe they have shows specifically for cup plates and give ribbons for best in show. Have a beautiful day everyone 🎃
The Alba pot translates: H.enMex means Hecho en Mexico = Made in Mexico
Really love the sweater!
And was curious about the pronunciation of "COOGI," so I Googled it: the "G" is a "hard g," just like the two g's in "Google." Not "COOJEE."
Also, I really liked that oversized "MOTHER" mug in the celadon colored glaze, and would have picked it up myself. The lettering and design on it looked to have been hand done. It likely wouldn't sell for a lot but there's definitely profit potential there. You don't pick up single mugs, but in this case you might want to rethink that: I don't know why someone would want three or four mugs spelling out "MOTHER".
But that's just me!
Do you EVER buy anything for yourself at thrift shops? Or only buy new from regular retail stores?
I know your job of course is being reseller but if you ever do pick up things for yourself (at a thrift store), what type of things would you keep and NOT sell?
I have known of people who never buy things from thrift shop; maybe stigma or something about buying used things.
I am not a reseller at all and never have been, but I go to thrift shops to buy for myself - clothes. books, DVD's, CD's, earrings, an umbrella, some bowls, etc.
Only thing I buy new from a retail store is a psir of shoes now and then.
I have a small foot (size 5 or 5 1/2 and pretty hard to find very many shoes in that size at thrift shops.)
I rarely go into a regular store to buy new things, too expensive.
Even Wal-Mart items are expensive for a lot of things these days..
I do buy for myself.. and most times sell it 😂
@@lavenderclothesline
I am not sure I follow. You buy for yourself and resell it??
I was just wondering what kind of things you buy at a thrft shop for yourself and NOT resell it? Or you are not into buying used things to keep?
Your answer was a little vague. Your apt. looks luxurious. Are all the furnishings/paintings, etc. all from new retail stores?
Just curious is all. No one I know has a place with immaculate furnishings,
ha, we all have messy places, old stuff for the most part and so little money, and just wondering...do you buy most of these decor in your home from retail stores or ever from a thrift store?
@@suzannelawson9215 I buy from anywhere I find the cheapest price, lots from thrift stores and clearance isles . I buy clothing from thrift stores and again clearance racks.
Under a loop the print has dots, original pieces do not
Japanese Print minute15: it’s a very well known piece of art dating back to the Edo Period, done about 1831. The original art was produced to be replicated in a traditional Wood Block print. Ink on wood pattern blocks, done in a technique that’s been used in Japan for hundreds of years. Now, of course, it’s replicated in modern technology too. I have a copy I brought back from Japan about 30 years ago.
It’s called: the Great Wave of Kanagawa. It’s the first print in Hokusai's series . The image depicts an enormous wave threatening three boats off the coast in the Sagami Bay (Kanagawa Prefecture) while Mount Fuji rises in the background. Sometimes assumed to be a tsunami, the wave is more likely to be a large rogue wave.
I have a framed and matted copy of all 36 prints, done in miniature. I brought it back to remind me of the 2 days my family and friends spent climbing Fuji, to see the sunrise on day 2.
Karen could you please check online and see if that beautiful woven basket that you have listed for$19 and the shipping is 57 is that correct? Avid follower
Did anyone else see the American Girl hair station in the green aisle?
You have such a nice voice
I think: Alba, hecho en Mexico. (Made in Mexico) 🙃
What is the background music in this video? Does anyone know? Thx
You need to talk about the negatives about eBay..selling since 2091
ATTENTION The set of blue flower plates on the video (fast forward to 5:26) I would have bought off you. Please go back to the thrift shop and get them.
Hi Karen, I have been watching your videos for a few months now. Question, from your videos from 2, 3 years ago it appears you have had some cosmetic work done, specifically under your eyes. Will you share what and where you’ve had done? Sorry if you don’t want to share.
No cosmetic work just Micro needling for my whole face especially under eyes. Nothing in the needles, just plain micro needling. I have changed cameras because that camera enlarges flaws.. Ive also gained weight so my face has filled in
@@lavenderclothesline Thanks, you look great!
The pot is Mexican and says alba hecho en Mexico
But Karen, people only have one Mother. Why would she need a pair?
Shopping for mom and mom in law.
Why are you not picking up dishes ? I'm curious
She has said in other videos that they are heavy and difficult to ship. She's trying to get out of shipping those items.
😊
Hi Karen I love your videos mostly because you are such a nice classy lady. I wanted to ask...did the nasty bullying situation that you mentioned in one of your previous videos stop/ get resloved or what ever?? I do hope so because you do not deserve such nastiness.
I did not find the clear bags you use for your items. I looked on you Amazon link but didn’t see them. Do you get them on Amazon?
Yes! I search clear zip lock bags
If thrift priced things a dollar I would pick up slightly damaged pieces
😁

Love you Kathleen! 💜💜💜
You should be have gotten the fishing sigh for bait stores silly karen
Or fishing cabins
