re: Garage sale finds 11/13 - homeruns & unicorns again!!!

It is not that serious. It is stuff I could sell on my own easily. I thought it was a regular group not an elite one.
Alot of groups are hidden but still accept people who have a reason to be there (local etc) and just don't want the admins to have to sift through all the people to find the real ones. I thought it was that type of thing.

I would have never purchased things like the decanters, programs, old ticket stubs, etc before because I never thought about that market. Mostly I wanted to see what to look for and post if I find anything because I am always out and about. I found those old lapel pins and I have an LSU old picture I was going to put in my booth because I hate wrapping glass to ship. The only reason I knew to look for those reindeer that I paid sub one dollar for and will sell for $40-50ish is because I paid attention to what my vintage group is looking for or purchased quickly. The group could probably get good deals when I find things lol because I am like you I don't hold and just want to make "middle man" money. I paid $1/each for those pins and they should sell on ebay for $15ish each at least. I was literally already at the sale and buying Christmas booth stuff so an extra $30 to pick up a couple pins seems like a good deal to me.

I am sorting bags of ornaments i bought yesterday (like your zip locks of jewelry) paid anywhere from 50 cents to 4.00/bag.
One bag I paid 2.50 was a set of Kurt Adler reindeer that sold recently on ebay for $75.00. Many of the ornaments should sell for $10-15. Even the plain ones would sell in my booth for a few bucks each in one day. And I get to keep what I like.

Bought a London Fog yesterday for $5 but I think I am going to keep it since it is short not long.
