I have not been to a garage or estate sale since mid-December.

I spent $48, got a few small gems, nothing super expensive

$4 - a plastic Eagle liquor pour spout


$5 - Vintage Arky beer mug


$5 - Walkman headphones, new in package


$10 - Bob Pettit mini bobble head
(Just sold it for $35 shipped)


$4 - Andy Warhol collection rug - salesman sample


$5 each - 1984 Krewe of Rodrigue doubloons. These are the heavy metals ones, not cheap aluminum

A bunch of people sold me some rare items because I bought stuff from them before and they felt I deserved it. It was nice to get some items that were rare because I shopped with them before.

I tried to buy your mom’s vagina, because it was all worn out, I figured I could flip it as a catchers mitt. It could catch a beach ball.

I think it's funny that you have so many minions who think you're just the coolest guy.

You should tell them about the time that you almost made your teenage daughter stay in an apartment in a shitty area of Harlem because you're so cheap.

It reads like you just did tell us the story about what he almost did.

Pathetic.

Nice stuff. Be careful about the GR stuff though. It is amazing but there is a spirit on them that I swear when I bought mine that you will understand very soon. I have some under my bed now. I was creating a whole room with them. I had to take them down.

Dude, your threads have convinced me to inventory all of my shite, and tell everyone I know, what has value. I mean, someone dies and they just put all their stuff on the corner?

This is funny. I’m the furthest from the coolest guy. I’m a dorky old man that likes to hit garage sales.

As for the Harlem thing, I was planning a lay over in NYC from Italy. I found several AirBnBs, one was in Harlem. I asked on the Travel Board, they said don’t get that one.

Holy shite, what a story!!! Hemingway ain’t got shite on me. Maybe I’ll get a Pulitzer for this.
