Exploring a Waterfront Estate Sale! Antiques, Vintage & More

There's antiques and vintage among the piles of housewares, kitchen stuff, boxes and furniture stacks in this home's five decades of accumulation! We took a chance based on what we could see that this waterfront home in Largo, Florida would be worth setting up for an estate sale...but what are we finding in the morass?
We start with our first walk-through of the house, where cousin Carl and I look for the vintage and antiques we can see from the surface. A 1960s Italian wheat table, antiquarian books, Hummels and toby jugs are apparent on the surface, along with signed crystal, vintage kitchen and dinnerware...but what lurks below the surface?
Two days later, we come back for an updated look at how we're restaging the house to show its prettiest and best quality things where our estate sale shoppers are likely to find them at this weekend's sale! We've found a lot of cool things...old razors and banks, a Boogie Woogie US Army bugle, World's Fair items and Wagner Magnalite...along with giant sets of high-end elegant glass and Rosenthal china, Portmerion and other big names! Vintage sewing and stereo stuff, an amazing piece of antique luggage and many more great things we're pricing to go to resellers are coming to light, and we still have more exploring to do!
We invite all the folks who can get to the Clearwater-St. Pete area to visit the estate sale when we open this weekend...for those who can't, this video should whet your appetite to go shop an estate sale in your own area!

When you walk through and discuss your estate sales, you always remember to be respectful in your comments. These items represent somebody's loved ones and they may be watching the video.

[@compasskumpas1]

Some people just grab and grab. "Mine, mine, this one's mine!" I'm not surprised why our country is in such a mess.

[@janetpogue4970]

He's a gentleman ❤

[@compasskumpas1]

Once upon a time, this was someone's dream, but now it's being scattered in the wind. Sad part of life, no matter how you water it down.

[@janetpogue4970]

I guess so 😢

[@dtruetheeness]

Hi George, I love that you make the distinction that you don't purchase from the estate sales you facilitate, it shows a professionalism that people can trust. 🎉

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I just feel like if I want to buy, that should be a separate thing before we ever talk about estate stuff. Otheriwise, why would anyone want to go to my sale?

[@janetpogue4970]

Yes, I figured that was what he observed 😊

[@michelemurphy5052]

George, I know I can't be the only one that waves and smiles back at you when you get to a mirror. Thank you for all the knowledge you share with us. I was wondering how many people do you use on a estate and getting ready for the sale?

[@MC-qb1jg]

George you have an amazing way to find value in lost history. Yikes 😳 1970

[@janetpogue4970]

I know, that's not history to me ! 😂

[@fluffyotter1601]

😊Dove….? I see a chili 🌶️…..😊 Good video…thanks!

[@roadrunnercrazy]

Absolutely. The red and green color gives it away. 😁

[@lorrainebowden2683]

George, you must have been a hat model in a past life. Teehee! You just can’t resist modeling them for us. Always fun and informative. ❤

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You got that right!

[@janetpogue4970]

😂😂

[@janetpogue4970]

Thank you for the tour. The staging turned out to be inviting! Buyers will have room to walk around and get a complete look at all the lovelies 💐

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

You bet! That's what we strive for when we can fit everything lol

[@janetpogue4970]

Great ! If u can't walk u can't buy ! $$

[@rubywingo6030]

I went to a Monkees concert in the ‘90’s, I think it was. They held it at the Oklahoma City Zoo of all places! Mike was there. Yep! I stood in the audience up front and screamed DAVY with all the other old ladies! 😅😅 Hey, isn’t it too bad florists don’t have deposits on vases? Like old coke bottles? Anyone back in the Stone Age ever collect coke bottles and go redeem them at the corner store?❤

[@stefanierybitski7943]

I love wedgewood jasperware! I have about 100 pieces that I have been collecting for about 24 years !It fits in many decorating styles

I can't believe the difference after you had a chance to stage it George. You form a magic transformation. Wishing you a great turn out and much success.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you! It turned out well

[@janeharden1163]

George you have taught me so much while giving the description as you have shown things! Thank you I love your channel

[@janetpogue4970]

Hey, Yes ! Good reason to send video to friends that haven't met him yet ! Click Share 🎉

[@chriswalker6826]

Happy Wednesday!!

[@susanstacy-gb1rs]

I respect you sooo much! Your encyclopedic knowledge is amazing ! Your grasp of history and fashion and styles encourages me to explore things outside my personal taste ..to research more . your patience in examining pieces helps me to find nuances that I would have overlooked . I appreciate all your informative videos . Thank you George … PS George is my favorite name . Luckily my daughters agree and so my eldest grandson is a George.

[@1beyond]

I am loving the way you are doing this.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks!

Thanks for the tour. See you Saturday !!🦩🌴🌞

[@janetpogue4970]

It was a nice chat earlier! Enjoyed everyone's friendliness and well wishes. 💐

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yes it was! Please keep coming back for more

[@Ireneginori]

George, wonderful video. We live about 67 miles from that home. Hubby and I might come by! 😊

[@deborahschoenherr784]

I love the yellow in the bathroom and the wall paper is great !

[@chriswitt2596]

My goodness what a great array of vintage boy they were collectors. Great stuff

[@janetd4862]

That Magnalite is in really good condition! I would have loved that oval pot when my kids were all at home. I got their Dutch oven for a wedding shower gift, as my mother did before me. I slowly added to my collection of Magnalite until the prices just got too high to be practical. I still use it after 48 years of marriage. I sure wish your sale was near me - you’ve got a lot of nice (and useful) things. Good luck!

[@george.carrasco]

Great video George! Thanks for sharing!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thank you for coming along!

[@kimrichards8439]

Lots a great stuff there. Going to be an exciting sale!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks, I hope so!

[@janetpogue4970]

It looks like it 😮

[@rkevghas]

I really wish I lived closer so I could get the typewriter table- I grew up with one and we used to set the sewing machine up on it! I need one now because of limited space!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Yes the perils of small space living

[@caroldotson7284]

It was just a fluke to see you at my neighborhood estate sale. I might go back on Sunday for more deals. Panasonic radio works great! As always, it's a joy seeing you, George. Largo girl.😊

[@karlaglover9693]

Thank you for sharing. I am glad I live in Oregon. Estate sakes can get me in trouble 😆. PLEASE STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY AND

[@lorettamenager4085]

I'm always amazed at your knowledge.

[@karen.asecondchance]

Great estate sale. I'm sure you will do well ❤.

[@vickimerritt2832]

So nice you mentioned Jocelyn and Drew, I know them both from the Relic Recoverist, Garrett rep days, and Jefferson, Tx days. They are very nice folks. Hello from Texas.

[@doriwilson6991]

The olive forks with the polished stones I have never seen before I actually have the salt cellar spoon with those cool stones I wonder who made them. I love going to estate sales but I wish they were Saturday and Sunday only because with my job now I miss out on all the really good stuff

[@elizabethscruggs1622]

Thank you for the tour. Your knowledge amazes me. I always learn something from you. That piece with the metal around the edge that I think had a yellow pattern has lead in it. My grandparents had several they picked up in their travels somewhere. They had big ones and little ones. We inherited them when my grandparents passed so I remember them from when I was a kid. I'm 62 so it was a while ago. The house looks great. Yall did an amazing job staging. Doesn't look like the same house.

[@marlenethomas7441]

Thanks for showing, will try to make it Sunday

[@crittergirl3647]

Sorry I missed this one earlier. Have started collecting Candlewick to use with my plain white china.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Love it! Great pattern and you can see the rims if you stack your china on top for different courses

[@Korenscollections]

I would love to go to a sale like that.

[@janetpogue4970]

Me too, and have George as our guide !

[@deborahschoenherr784]

love the lil desk.

Wish I lived near by - would have loved to do some shopping at your sale! All the best!

[@janetpogue4970]

I would too 😊

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Maybe one day!

[@jennbeth1]

You and your team did a great job!

[@OriginalNethead]

Looks like the family took everything I'd have wanted, but there's plenty more in the house! Christmas from heck, apparently. 11:22 My grandfather worked in an A&P for a while during the Depression. Took what you could get at the time. (and I still want to see what's in that attic! With a house that age you never can tell; I just hope it's nothing the heat could damage. Melted plastic is NOT good for resale.)

[@bmohin]

what a fun sale.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I think people will enjoy it!

[@lindamain6355]

Hi George, That walking stick with the mosaic looking colours in the handle is Heathergems, coloured heather stalks from Scotland

Love your videos, always so informative. The hexagonal end table by the couch is very similar to one my parents had in the 1960's. Hope your sell goes smoothly.

Hi George! I love the fez…I hope you bought it for yourself👍🏼

I didn't, can't pre-buy out of the sales I do because of conflict of interest

I'm in shock. Maybe being judgmental? I didn't think ministers had enough money to buy such wonderful items. Does anyone else have the same reaction? Yes George! We knew you would do it! Wonderful video!

I have a wooden billy club from my grandmother. She kept it under her bed. The leather loop is missing. I was told they were brought into town think there would be union issues which didn't happen. There was a Tannery in town. They sold off the excess. That the story she told me. Think I will research it now. I really hope it wasn't used on someone.

Hey, I heard you say people were interested in candle wick again. I have so much of my mothers that I want to get rid of! I don’t need to make a ton on it, I just don’t want to give it to goodwill! What are your ideas?

[@cathyhelmuth823]

How long did it take your team and you to sort, stage, and price this sale? It’s an enormous undertaking that takes just the right people which possess passion for passing the items along for a second life!

It is said that The Monkees will never be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because they used studio musicians to record their records. So that’s why the wanted to prove they could actually play. Doesn’t seem fair to me. They were very accomplished musicians and deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

The Monkees were a tv invention that turned into something real and they don't really get any credit for that

Hi George! What did you end up pricing the Regimental trunk for? I have a tall antique steamer with original stickers and the hangers. Our family brought it over on a liner, around WW I!

8:12 If you don't have a pot to pee in..........I finally sold my glass top Italian wheat sheath table and won't ever buy one again. I've learned that people don't like glass top tables, even though I actually love them. I sold the base and kept the glass because the buyer was going to ship the base to a family member and didn't need it. ( I hope I don't jinx you.)

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm not worried, glass tops do well in Florida because a lot of people have smaller places that need less heavy furniture! It's a different market than a lot of the US that way
