I remember when I found mine a few years ago the woman nearly pissed me off, after we agreed on the price she kept deciding she did not want to sell certain pieces. One of them was a storage case full of figures like shown there, she decided the price did not include the figures in there. Then she tried to get upset when I said she needed to lower her price if she was going to take them out Finally agreed to what amounted to 70 like new complete figures for 450.00 included was a perfect Blue Snaggletooth as well an a Droids Cartoon Fett that was also near perfect.

Picked up about 50 playmobil figures as well as about 10 or 12 M.A.S.K. figures with some vehicle parts for 6.00.

Went to another sale that had brown paper bags you could fill for 5.00 found a couple of vintage shirts topped it off with a bunch of old loose extension cords and other broken electrical pieces, probably worth 12 to 15 at the scrap yard.

This is the first time I have ever found this many at one time. Usually will find one in a box or bag of other toys

I garage saled for 10 hours on Thursday. I did extremely well. I only got to go 2 hours today due to a nasty thunderstorm knocking out power and I could have gone to more but I wanted to go to the Royals game because it was bobblehead giveaway. I did extremely well in the 2 hours I got to go today. Some person gave me 15 Wii games, more than half of of them are Mario, for free. I also found a Wii U at the same sale for 50 bucks which also came with about 10 games, also more than half of them were Mario games. But I got some really good stuff on Thursday too garage saling is a blast

Pretty nice score at a garage sale on Saturday. It was my last one of the day. The guy was closing up shop. He said that if I was interested in anything to let him know and he would make me a hell of a deal. He didn't have much outside but on an inside table was this hockey stick signed by Gordie Howe. I didn't even ask about it. I just picked it up and set it down. He had $50 on it. He goes, "you can have it for $20 if you want it." I don't know much about hockey sigs but I felt it was worth the gamble. Hell the stick had to be worth that much. After comparing it to others, I think I got a heck of a steal.

Congrats on a sweet find!

Went to a few yard sales Saturday, got some nice cards at one. Guy had a tupperware container of cards, had a Greg Bird contenders auto, some museum collection jersey cards, including a Trout, and some low numbered stuff, as well as some really low numbered stuff. I was worried how much he was going to want because he had a list of the cards that had Beckett prices listed, but he only wanted $45 for them all. Ebay sales come to about $210 on everything. Now to get everything listed.

I also picked up some cheap board games, and some other stuff. I spent $75 total for everything I bought Saturday, and should get around $400 for it.

My friend did better than I did. He got 2 brand new pairs of Raybans from the guy I got the cards from for $45. He already got his listed and has bids.

I'm loving these estate sale Auction Websites. Bought a Danbury Mint Coin Set for $250 and flipped it for $800 in the span of a week. I bought some Autographed items as well and just waiting to hear back from JSA to see if I'm further in the green.

These are sites where you can bid online and they ship to you?

You bid online, pay online, and have to go and pick it up. It is good sometimes because it is limited by how far someone is willing to drive.

shrevecity · 06-13-2018, 05:41 PM

Had a great day out today. Spent about 60 between 2 estate sales should make around 250 to 300 from that, several nice mesh truckers caps in the mix. Then went up to Sulpher Springs TX where a sale barn is that works similar to a GW outlet. Spent 5.00 there and should make another 300.00 on what I got there. That is if I don't decide to keep some of the stuff I found.

shrevecity · 06-13-2018, 08:56 PM

Wow put one of the items I got today up for auction and I already have 2 bidders asking me to add a BIN of 150 and 200.. Paid 1.00 for the item.. Gotta love old truckers caps and you really never know what is going to pop with them.

There are tons out there that will get the same thing to happen. Just search vintage trucker cap. All these bidders were from Thailand which is a hot bed for these. If its old agriculture, car part maker or tobacco company there is a chance you could be sitting on a gem.
