$2. You’d be surprised what walkie talkies still go for. These work, just wear on the antenna. They should bring ~ $25

I recently sold a set of walkie-talkies similar to this for $75

I don’t think the Marines ever used a .270 win? Am I wrong?

Nice, and thanks for sharing.

1. Forgive my ignorance, and I'm not a young guy, just never saw them.....What is a Hexbug robot?

2. Those Springform pans will be snapped up by somebody who likes to bake a lot.

Two questions

1. What is the deal right now with vintage sports hats? I’m seeing dumb team hat collections from the 70s and 80s go for $100+ in online auctions.

2. How’s the sports cards been in regards to estate and garage sales? You see many sales with any collections? Bc it rarely comes up in my searches.

HexBug’s are miniature remote controlled robots. I didn’t even mean to buy it, it was in the box of Wii.

I may keep the springforms

I have no idea. I just sold an early 90’s Lakers hat for $250. I paid $4 for it. I bought about 20 hats all together, this was one of them. The others went for about $150.

Rarely see sports cards. I did recently buy a Gem Mint 10, 1983 Nolan Ryan for 25¢. It sold for $200. Percentage wise, it was my best find ever at 800 to 1 payoff.

I don’t pay too much attention to dolls, it’s way too hard of a category to learn. I only look for Barbies (which I know)
