Brodus Clay is also known as Tyrus on the fox news channel.

He's on the Greg Gutfeld show.

Hell, he may be on right now.

Curious. What did you find out about the mechanical bank from earlier in the week? And was it all metal?

I checked this on Facebook. Knew you were going to do well. Think you will eventually clear $750, possibly $850. Nothing special to the lot overall, just a bulk buy that a collector or Army-Navy store will be able to piece out. Congrats baw.

ETA: I meant eBay

Which ones, the rocket, the LSU, or the ones from banks? They are all metal. The LSU one (not mechanical) is the rarest, worth about $75-$100. I’ve sold a few like that. The rocket ship is common, worth about $20, I’ve sold it before. The ones from banks are $20-$40 each.

That is vintage fabulous right there. I personally know someone looking for a set. Those are not merry mushroom though which is what most people want.

I paid $10 for the entire set, only because there are zero chips/flaws. I normally don’t buy stuff like this. I put it on eBay at $50 (+$50 shipping), and got no hits. I’ve lowered it to $40(+$50). A lot of single pieces sell for $20-$30 each. I just don’t want to part it out.
I’m not worried about the $10 because I bought a pair of Carhartt overalls at the same sale for $5. I sold them for $75.

That is the issue. People don't want whole sets. They want replacement pieces. That is the beauty of the booth. Price it individually and leave it lol. I am much more secure in shipping breakables now though.

Sold my first two pieces on Mecari. Lustroware vintage measuring cups. And a metallica shot glass. it was a quarter and had good comps on ebay

No, I’m not too worried it, not worth my while. I should break even with the cords and controllers/headset

We had our neighborhood garage sale today in Ponchatoula and it was nothing but baby clothes and kids selling lemonade.

For the most part, I don’t do well in neighborhood wide garage sales. There were two in BR today, and I did get the Weber and the video games from them. But usually it’s just what you said, baby stuff and junk.
When the neighborhood Walden Estates does their annual sale, I always do well because rich people have nice stuff, and are getting rid of it cheap. I have a video on my YT channel of the sale last year (Nov). I did quite well. My YT is the same as my screen name.

2003 was great. I bought the next 10 iterations (unsuccesfully) chasing the magic of the NCAA game with the Oregon guy on the cover.

I added “Merry” to the title, see if that helps.

Just wanted to say I really enjoy your posts.
I collect action figures and Funkos and there is an app now that lets you see what things are worth and the prices fluctuate with the market. Its called HobbyDB and has a ton of stuff.
That Undertaker is about $6.
That Brodus Clay may be the first one ever made of him in the Mattel series (First In Line) so you looking at maybe $20-$40 for him.
That AJ Lee looks like it’s the Mattel series #42, worth around $50-$70.

The Virtual Weber Bulletin Board has a buy/sell/trade forum.

It’s a board for Weber fans, so you may find an interested buyer there for your smoker. Some of the guys go nuts for old models.

Whta kind of resale value are you expecting on the video games? I can understand there being a market for super old original nintendo games still in the box but I mean who is buying a used copy of madden 2002 for ps2?
