For anyone who doubts how inexpensively you source, I hit two auctions this past weekend. At the first auction, I picked up a big blue tote and a cardboard box full of 78s, plus 3 albums full of 78s for $5 total. One of the albums is military, a whole training course put out by the Signal Corps. There were also a bunch of 33 1/3 records tossed in. I've barely glanced at them but I did notice a signed Bing Crosby White Christmas album. The second auction I attended had two boxes of 78's. I got them all (and a box of glassware that I gave to another dealer) for the whopping total of $1. I did pay up for some paper at the second auction, but I think there will be a huge return on my money. Also got some great buttons, some telegraph keys and manuals, car and truck manuals, and a ton of advertising. Going to be a busy winter getting this stuff listed.

never too old to play video games enjoy your life. !!!

[@delsakelly1456]

I feel like window shopping watching your video. Thank you.

[@SteveFrenchWoodNStuff]

@14:52 - Someone can't park. The bumpers are touching; I wonder which ran into which. You'd think they'd have enough sense to back up so it's not obvious.

[@andrewchapman5659]

You are the KING of the Small things :)

[@_The_Worst_]

This was a pretty fun video, I really enjoyed the exploring ya did in the flea market...🤘🏼💯✔️

[@lori3978]

I go to antique malls but the Best Buy’s I’ve ever gotten were in the ma & pop antique stores in small towns across the country. You definitely know your history 👍. I really enjoyed your fle market finds.

[@jeanieolahful]

Out and about today and saw some old maps of our area from 1901 up on the wall of a local supermarket! I wanted it so bad! Then you post this video! I’ll serve keeping my eye out for old maps ant atlases!

[@terratwotwo]

I really love your flea market vids! I actually found an 1841 French book of hand colored maps at the flea market last weekend. Thanks to your previous videos, I scooped it up for $5 and plan on selling the maps individually. Sincerely appreciate all the info you share!

[@yeoh7939]

Always enjoy how entertaining and informative you are!! 👍🏿👍🏿

[@arrahslichenmyer4986]

I like Rocky and Bullwinkle. Mighty Mouse brings memories, too. This is an interesting program. Thank you and your son.

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

Thanks for the shout outs Don! Especially love the MOTU stuff. Always fun to see Night Stalker (Skeletor's horse) and of course, COMICS!!!.

[@TheAuctionProfessor]

Can't look at MOTU without thinking of your Castle Greyskull, and MOTU lot. Can't keep a good man down! LOL

[@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter]

The Auction Professor 😂😂🙌 thanks for thinking of me! Lol

[@TheAuctionProfessor]

You The Man!

[@michaleslusher9210]

U ABSOLUTELY SHOULD DO MORE VIDS LIKE THIS! I LOVE IT!!!☺👍👌✌

[@Nannasrevival]

I enjoyed this video. I learned a lot from you today. Thanks for making this video.

[@tracijones6840]

Another awesome video. I am learning so much from you. I didn’t even realize just how interested I am in this type of stuff. Thank you for taking the time to put these videos out for all of us.

[@patriot-hz1dy]

Thank you Don for your informative, funny, entertaining and educational videos. I walked into my first rummage sale recently and was overwhelmed by the quantity of things kind of hard to focus but I did eventually and picked up a couple items but I'm sure I missed a bunch always so much to learn. But most of all I really enjoyed the interactions with the sellers I love chatting making small talk and the whole environment the smell of old things I really love that. Thank you so much again from California

[@TheGinamac79]

big fan of yours. you can be a bit abrupt with folks. you come off as a know it all.

[@flipt4real762]

[@rubymoon9055]

[@OG_Castoman]

Love the video. Wonder why you passed on the maps you left behind. Great video......would love a few more of these of you and son on the hunt :) Hope you're awesome dog is doing well. Have a great weekend.

[@stacyjeffress9807]

It's funny Don because I just happened to have watched the map video BEFORE I watched this one. I was thinking omg there's some of the maps he was talking about. Then you started mentioning the map video in this one. Anyway, great score on those maps... what a deal. Definitely on my BOLO list. Thanks for everything as usual.

[@davidbillera9296]

I just wanted to say thank you again for your coverage on the Ebay promoted listings debacle. I know you were attacked for no reason by some immature you tubers but your advice was invaluable. Glad to see your channel growing. God bless and keep up the good work.

[@terryo1463]

Can’t wait to see your wife’s collection.

[@tammyulgen]

Just joined your Patreon; loving the BoLos & tips. My husband is very serious at work... he loves to come home & play his video games, never to old!

[@bonniemiles7957]

Wheeling is also the home of an IKEA furniture factory, which they are closing.

[@sandrahazel2713]

Love your videos! I'm learning alot! Thanks!

[@jasminaofficial5144]

Amazing video , learned a lot …

[@TK-431]

I live in WV, near Wheeling. It was at one time, the state capital as well.

[@TheGinamac79]

my husband is from Wheeling 🤗🙂

[@barrywainwright3391]

I've been a vendor at flea markets for decades and with each passing year it gets progressively worse. I used to average $350 a day now lucky to make $50. There are a lot of reasons why it got worse which is too lengthy to go into. Everyone sells all their good stuff on the internet and they bring all their junk to flea markets. And its harder to get good deals because everyone looks up stuff on ebay on their smart phones. Fyi, vinyl records are a hot item and you ignored a crate full that looked to be in VG condition and yiu aren't ignoring other good stuff in the video. But its nice to see videos about flea markets. Keep up the good work. There's hardly no one at that indoor flea market and you have very little competition and you can get things cheaper because vendors are desperate for sales.

[@walkerprice7732]

I watched it all. Thank you for the quality info.

[@mimisafay2899]

Thanks for teaching :)

[@eddiejimenez2929]

Professor I would have bought all of those maps. What is the reason for u not doing so?

[@Kappa123ish]

Excellent Video!

[@marshasthisandthat104]

Ive been binge watching you. So glad i found you, you are a wealth of information and the way you present it is refreshing. Just for future reference Chinese is written in symbols and Vietnames is written with the alphabet with accents. Very similar to French....my mom is vietnamese

[@paulleach5841]

Love this video i too am drawn to religious items.

[@digicthus]

Nice score on those maps. I also separate atlases even for just one or two maps. People always pass up the big atlases and I can usually get them for cheap and quadruple my money on one map. Cheers!

[@johnwcarney]

Another fantastic video.

[@MikeinEtna]

Good stuff ! Many thanks !

[@diggingindiana1464]

I hope you know the heart buckle was not U.S issue! They are of the time period but the military c.w!

[@robs5579]

Your subscriber count jumped quick. Congrats and good finds

[@bru1015]

On those maps, it’s a plus they’re laminated 👍 Thanks for sharing your knowledge 😊

[@MimisTreasureCottage]

What part of Ohio are you in? I'm in Ohio and I don't recognize this flea market. The bank jogged my memory...you're in the Toledo area, right? You're by my favorite antique mall in Maumee.

[@MidwestPicker]

1776 continental dollar is either a copy, which are popular, or real. If real, you have a million dollars. The Thaler was minted for many years with the same year, so may not be worth much. Those maps are awesome.

[@TheAuctionProfessor]

It's a real one. They don't all sell that high. They made them in Pewter, Copper, and silver. We found the most common in pewter. It may be a variety though, which could be worth a lot. I've had repros, and this is not one. The Thaler is counter stamped, and can be dated, by that. We're taking them to a coin shop, and will have them checked out for sure. But I'm pretty sure on these both being good.

[@CharlesMichaelSidwell]

Is that a flea market that is open every weekend? The flea markets around me are pretty much outdoors. Do you see a lot of those sellers regularly at that flea market? After watching your vids, I feel at least a little more confident at flea markets. I wish I had a tenth the knowledge that you have when it comes to antique items. Thank you for sharing another great video. By the way, your son dresses like I did when I was his age. Love the red plaid pants and the combat boots.

[@chriss4365]

I got a old constable bailiff badge i found it has the wallet with the deceased owners card and data. It also has a fancy looking old pocket calculator buttons have a lot of use. Does it have any value and if i sell it should i remove the card with the deceased users data or is it ok to include it?

[@sirpainter1]

"Bullwinkle"? You have now entered the Generation Gap/Twilight Zone!

[@Scoofnie]

hahahaha i hope that one dude doesn't run his flea market stall naked >.

[@ericmoritz7767]

So on the map pages, how do you package and ship those. Like what im seeing so far thanks

[@freedomofthepress2125]

A Goodwill ad?

[@markfelkins5162]

where do you sell your stuff at ?

[@MJ95630]

An alter boy AND boy scout? 🤤😞😟🤐

[@richardray5297]

Why didn’t you buy all those maps

[@stevenguevara2184]

That apple didnt fall far. Your son is a clone

[@kristibrown48]

Yesterday I acquired a wooden military box. It has a date on it and has a mix of I believe American and Japanese items. The Japanese item is the most intriguing to me ... it’s a tool pouch with tools I can’t find out where to go to identify. Can you help? Love your channel!

[@marionhammers8654]

Brb

[@stressful5555]

Do u have a discord channel. That would be awesome

[@Rose39M]

Thank you for a very informative video. By the way, how much does it cost for me to become a patreon?

[@ernestgrawcock3950]

Well Lip smacken good ...

[@4realrenee]

Loving these videos, thank you so much, can’t wait to see your wife’s channel. I’m going to start shopping the antique stores from time to time. Just starting so need to stretch my dollar. Also cool how your education has had tremendous backing on your career and expertise. Thanks again.

[@Slyguy96]

kinda why i don't like going to flea market's. you ask the seller how much and he has to give you a history lesson. and tell about how valuable everything he owns is. I guess i'm not very patient. But everytime a guy does that to me i usually miss a sale down the isle. So get out of my way wierdo!!!

[@MCC4RTHY1]

Dude your kid doesn’t know Bullwinkle ouch… major parenting fail.. happens to the best of us my going down the road listening to the radio imagine dragons comes on and my mini me and myself then start an argument about who was better black flag or imagine dragons 😂 Freakin kids lol
