Pt 1 Collectors estate clear out! what will I find

[@frankiecarrel9794]

That was a cool unboxing video interested to see everything else

[@sportshighlightsheaven4693]

For sure

[@carrols.hawkins7770]

For once, I am excited about seeing a collection of old toys. I am 77 y/o, so the toys are my memories. Please, Alex, try to show us some girl toys, like the doll house pots and pans. I spent hours playing with my doll house from the '50's. My mom saved it for me, so I still have it. Alas, no original doll furniture. But years later, my parents bought me lots of little replica items for my doll house. This toy journey is going to be so much fun. ❄️❄️☃️❄️❄️☃️❄️❄️

[@mariedanks663]

Agree

[@dthomp06]

I’d love to see doll house things too. My dad made my doll house in early 60s, and I had all kinds of cool furniture etc. unfortunately it got left with my cousin’s when we emigrated to the USA when I was 10.

[@expatannie6958]

I remember when you were building this house, Alex, and I thought, "Wow, what a huuuuge garage!" Now, it seems like you could have doubled the size and still filled it up in a jiffy!🤣

[@urbanurchin5930]

There is enough space on that side of the property for him to build another structure for storage / sorting if he decides to do that in the future.

[@lynfreeman2383]

Stuff expands to fill the available space!

[@lorettalouvros207]

That may be true but Alex sells as quickly as he sorts. Problem solved

[@nancyparis9975]

If I am watching any other KZbin channel and I see you pop up, I change over immediately! I love unwrapping all these treasures with you. 😊

[@dthomp06]

Same here.

[@Bluelady4848]

I just love these digging through boxes videos! It's like discovering treasure right along with you. There are a lot of times I've seen things in your hoarded house videos and I would recognize it from my childhood. (I'm old LOL) A lot of kitchen appliances and stuff that my Mom had too! Can't wait for part two of this!

[@favouritemoon4133]

Hiya Alex. I wonder if you would be able to do a video of you cleaning up that Space Tank?Always been fascinated by watching people clean up/restore old things!

[@witteney3334]

Good suggestion!

[@davidross5169]

My aunt collected those ,bat,operated toys,I collected ,for many many years,10000s of toys,kinda still do.had several ,auctions at an auction house.but still have lots more stuff.model kits,un built ,that brought back good memories.

[@tashaprice5797]

I LOVE that you are going through all the box's on camera! That is so awesome, can't wait for the next video's.

[@amberjade528]

Yayyyy another new series!!! It’s so much fun discovering new treasures with you. I just imagine my father playing with toys like this when he was a kid. It’s like I’m opening each item with you, thank you for not rushing through the boxes ❤

[@urbanurchin5930]

......But ! ..... I find it maddening that he will pick up an item three or four times before actually taking it out of the box and looking at it. Also, unwrapping an item and leaving the paper in the box - creating unnecassary clutter. I know he has been doing this for a long time and sometimes gets excited about the "next treasure" but - in my mind - I would try to be as efficient as possible.....pick up an item ONCE - figure out the sorting - come back later for further examination and valuation.

[@lisamiller8174]

@@urbanurchin5930 he does what works for him.

[@lindaodellvt]

It may be your birthday, but you have the good fortune to make any day you unbox toys feel like Christmas! Not a bad job to have Alex! I do appreciate how much work goes into acquiring, transporting, sorting and selling - but the possibility that the next piece you unwrap could be real treasure must be soooo exciting!

[@vivianchairez955]

I love the way you entertain yourself and make yourself laugh😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@cecoya]

Like all those miniature furniture for the doll houses. That is cool. Have a great day

[@nyclady27]

Alex! I'm dying here! I've seen 2 items that I had as a little girl! I thought the dolls blew me away but this, mind blown! Can I come play? Melissa is there! Melissa, can I come play in your garage? What fun! You lucky lady! My toy box was stolen by our movers back in 1960! If I see one more thing I had in my toy box 65 years ago. I'll freak! I have been looking for old friends for all these years! Found a story book I had on Ebay! Now back to the show. Imma rewind and see what I've missed while commenting on the show! Woot, woot! 🎄🎅🏽🙂🙂👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@junebug585]

I still have most of my set of the little building blocks. Had so much fun building with them.

[@stephaniekeith3361]

My grandpa had that ford retractable hard top when I was a kid (but the real thing). What a great memory this box gave me❤

[@jordynoleymom]

Omg I loved the cylinder full of bricks! My grandma had a set in her toy closet. What a memory!!

me too and have watched every episode posted, Some more than once.Just love this wonderful channel

[@turbonanny3319]

I love watching you unbox old toys. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Certainly different than the Great Teacup Stressfest!. You didn't say "neat-o!" even once for the china. I love watching all of it, but your love of old toys is my feel good moment of the hour!

[@scampbell3363]

Hi Lefty, You do just fine without using your GoPro. Keeping yourself busy. Thanks for the post

[@karenmanning5915]

Hope you are having a very happy birthday today Alex! Watching you sort through boxes for treasures is so fun! Hopefully you are having lots of fun with your family today!

[@tericollier8637]

The Smalls❤️❤️❤️❤️! And the ephemera….. handle with care, we love them so! You are a Rock ⭐️ Star ⭐️ !!!

[@SheriTracey61]

OMG! I had that battery bartender. His face went red and a little smoke would come out of his ears. I wonder whatever happened to mine. That was a fantastic smile you gave me this morning. 😃

[@michaelw24401]

What a nifty video. I think I'm going to enjoy this series and will eagerly await browsing through the lots when it gets posted.

[@Woodthrush]

Alex, that duck lamp looks like an Oregon Ducks mascot. Go Ducks!

[@raggedyann4372]

Cool Toys🎉🎉You sure enjoyed making this video more than separating the cups and saucers🙄🤣🤣🤣

[@marciajohnson6767]

Very fun to see what you will find in these boxes!

[@sharonbolton3576]

Thank you Alex. Have a good evening ❤️🤗

[@cmac5739]

I like the little bike tag. My grandmother came from Dalhousie, Nova Scotia.

[@OriginalNethead]

My dad did the same thing in about 1970 - bought out an entire toy store that closed down. It all landed in our basement. I sold a lot of the Matchbox cars off about 15 years ago, still in their boxes! Back then they were worth a few bucks.

[@sunflower5170]

I'm seeing this on the 5th of Dec. -So Happy Birthday Alexander !

[@noraaa9973]

Love your enthusiasm!

[@ivyseal5161]

HI Alex love it when you go through the boxes and find old vintage stuff like old toy cars and the one I liked the two old barmen drinking looking forward to seeing more of this fantastic stuff from the hoarder's house

[@jenford7078]

I have the Snoopy watch, too! I got it for Christmas 1975.

[@vidac5159]

Always check those little adhesive tape tins, my grandmother stored her rings in one and my dad threw it away cleaning the desk! He never cleaned a desk out again.

[@hichamghazala9445]

Hi,its verry beautifull pieces of collection.i love old diecast. Wow amazing.bravo (hicham from morocco)

[@dawnhaynes7784]

So exciting to see what your going to discover love theses videos yeah

Fascinating and a few nostalgic memories coming back to me.

[@davidross5169]

I remember taking an old,Japanese friction toy apart ,to find it made out of a old coffee can or something.

[@donnapoppins1204]

Has anyone mentioned that the little duck Lamp seems like it maybe a University of Oregon Duck? My grandbabies are from two kids who fell in love as Freshman Ducks! I am going to be watching this item for sure.

[@yarrowbumblefoot8877]

Happy Birthday Alexander and may the years ahead be good to you.

[@ViKee010]

Thanks Alex for starting another series. We seriously can’t get enough. I’m kinda thinking you could make a television show out of these things as long as they don’t change you from videoing with your hand held camera. It really is something that we all love and are used to now. 🤟🏼🤍

BING is a famous toy maker - until 1932. It usually comes up alongside Schuco (another famous German toy maker company) - both were from Nuremberg. But Schuco is meanwhile sold, and BING closed down their toyproduction in 1932.

That Hubley toy airplane could be a sleeper. Hubley is a big collectable toy in the US.

[@vickimerchlewitz]

I absolutely love your show and have been hooked on it since Covid started. But please once you unwrap something and there’s crunched up paper in the box please take it out of the box so you don’t keep moving it back-and-forth. The crinkling sound makes it hard to hear what you’re saying. Thank you very much

[@lynnestamey7272]

Alex, you have space on your property to build a sorting shed. Those pre built sheds are an option... Just sayin' that it would give you back your garage for cars.

In the first box you sorted in the house,I saw accessories for the "kitchen tin things".

[@debbon494]

Way to go! This should’ve fun.

[@mariedanks663]

can't wait to see the rest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@brianhenry2385]

Good to see the tables and bins out for the sort! Another thing I use, when I expect a number of items to be the size of baseballs (and smaller) is a stack of boxes about the size and shape of copy paper box lids. It’s easy to dump out all the baggies and cups full of odds and ends into a box lid and sift them around like panning for gold. I keep several dozen on hand and use them to sift and sort, then re-use them for the next sort. It’s also safer, in case there are needles, broken glass or loose razor blades/utility knife blades among the smalls.

[@brianhenry2385]

Cookie tray works good too. From there auction lots can be made up. I use cookie trays for dealing with old hardware junk bins, since they don’t puncture the way cardboard can.

[@lesliejohnson7247]

Alex, I’m so glad you sold the shop! Ever since you did, we get to see these kinds of discoveries. I was *just* thinking, “wouldn’t it be cool if the next box was full of special set asides??” And it was! Then drinking guy toys, oh my! I was born 1954. I didn’t have toys like these. After all I was a girl. (Sadly I barely liked dolls or Barbies and would have played forever with Tinker Toys and my brothers race car tracks!!) But the materials, design and colors are exactly as I remember them. And now you’re taking a boxful inside to sort. YeHA!!

[@lindakovacs7904]

Do not quit when you are having such fun. Nice to travel back in time if only through memories. This is going to be a really variety packed assortment of neat stuff. Hard to do it all one handed I ,,would conclude. But you always get through these items and find some unusual treasures. More fun please. Next time.

[@lindaallen9721]

Alex, are there any plans to build a building on the property to possibly run the business from? Then you would have room to use the garage for your cars. Or, vice versa! Love the channel!

I'm nearly 70 and I was given a set of the "rubber" building block when I was a very young child. I played with them until they begged for their life and I still have them. My kids weren't so interested in playing with them, but I got to have a little thrill while trying to interest them in them. LOL I've never seen them anywhere else until I saw the ones in your box. VERY cool stuff in these boxes! when will these be auctioned??
