Estate sale finds - 3/4 - 2 homeruns
Posted on 3/4/21 at 6:18 pm
Posted on 3/4/21 at 6:18 pm
I spent $231
Vintage old Louisville shirt $5
Red Blooded Hats $15
Jewelry (the bangles are Sterling) $9
Sealed skin care (I did well with these before) $150
#93 Stanley wood plane $10
Griswold waffle iron $42
(I’ve started semi restoring it)
The two homeruns will be the Griswold which is worth about $300, and the plane, worth about $150.

That NRA and US Border Patrol hat are going to be worth a shite load 25 years from now

I find some of these threads interesting and see how you make money on a lot of this stuff, but those hats can't be worth your time. I don't think there worth shite and you have to deal with selling them too.

plane, worth about $150.
if the non-baws of the ot want a mind frick, start down the rabbit hole of what highly sought after antique hand planes go for. some of them have sold for close to and over 6 digits.

Thats an old Louahvil shirt.

Those hats are sold at every shitty gas station in the south so not sure on the value there

So how do you go about establishing the value of these things

Nice Griswold find! You never know what you are going to find. I picked up this 1958 football rule book at Mickey Mangham’s estate sale. I guess Tommy Lott was his roommate, looks like both their names are on it with a room number.

Would love to take the border patrol hat and go to a welfare office

I want that plane.
How do we get in touch with you?

I think it’d be fun to try and guess which of your finds are the home runs.

the I Luv Louavull is great if it’s in good condition

I know you’ve said it before but is there a specific website you use to locate which estate or garage sales you want to hit up? Do you use Facebook or online newspapers

Looking for some guidance. Will likely be selling off some a parent's stuff soon (it's in storage right now). A lot of furniture and some nice pieces. Any recs on people/businesses in the BR area to call to see if interested in buying outright, or possible consignment?

Good stuff. Nothing like a quick flip at an estate sale or garage sale in the summer. Flipped a Yeti Hopper 30 last year. Paid $15. Sold for $250 in 25 minutes.

Griswold looks good. I have quite a few pieces that were inherited that we restored and use daily. What do you use to estimate their resell value?

When I lived in Annapolis, Md I knew these two old gay antique dealers who made a fortune going to estate sales in Alabama and Mississippi and buying mostly vintage furniture at ridiculously low prices and sell it to rich Yankee tourists for just crazy high prices at their shop. They were the ones that turned me on to that great book, "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil." Jim Williams was just a souped-up version of these old dudes.

Like the waffle iron. Those are nice.

No way in hell would I put skin cream from a garage sale or eBay not knowing how old it is or what weather conditions it was kept in on my skin.

That’s waffle iron and planer are interesting and the best in my opinion.
