This isn’t everything I bought, but it’s the high dollar items or strange/interesting items.

I spent about $400 over all. The two videos below show about $300 of what I bought $45 - 50+ lbs of Legos, including about 70 minifigs

We couldn't be more complete opposites in this life.

Nope nope nope. I have a rule that I normally do not buy anything with eyes. I make an exception for a few childrens toys.

I'm a minimalist. I wouldn't want anything to do with that junk - even if it was free. Nothing at all against you, but we are complete opposites.

I hate clutter as well, have become some what of a minimalist in my aging years, but that goes towards things I own. I don’t consider the junk I buy at garage sales as stuff “I own”. I’m either gonna sell it or get rid of it. Does this make sense?
Over the last year or so, the wife and I have been cleansing the house of shite we don’t need, looking to downsize in a couple years.

That club value will depend on the grooves mainly. BECU clubs were all the rage for a while but have simmered down. The lob wedge is harder to find with decent grooves left. Red dot is 2 degrees flat so it could be moved up to standard black dot which is normal. Nice club. Good find at the price for you and the buyer if the grooves and shaft were decent.

My parents had a black panther TV lamp. The panther had a cut out on the back where the bulb went. It was used for low lighting and sat upon the old box type TV's. I have been looking for one for years. If you ever see one, please buy it for me!

there are a bunch on eBay

Is that what you’re looking for? ^


Yes, exactly. Can't believe they are that expensive!

$20 - 1968 Singer featherweight machine


I know this was going to sell before I even saw that you said you sold it for $450.

I had an older one in what we call "the utility room". It was newer than 1968.. but we had a plumbing issue and the guy had to go in the utility room. The guy saw the sewing machine and said "I will give you $100 for that. Do you use it?" I told him that it must be worth at least $200 if he is willing to give me $100, but since its just sitting there with no plans to be used, I would sell it to him for $100.

Quilters love those things. It's a simple machine, nearly indestructable, easily repaired and maintained. At 450 believe it or not, a quilter somewhere is posting about the steal of a deal she got.

What is a TV lamp?


They were popular when TV's first came out. Supposed to save your eyes from the TV rays.

quote:

A TV lamp is a small, often decorative lamp from the mid-20th century, typically made of ceramic, with a low-wattage bulb designed to be placed behind or next to a television set to provide ambient background light. The primary purpose of a TV lamp was to reduce eye strain by preventing viewers from watching a bright screen in a completely dark room, a common concern when television viewing became popular in the 1950s and 60s.
