Flea Market Selling - One More Time!

[@PaperandMoose]

A bit of a slow day, but not all selling days are filled with excitement. At least we were able to enjoy the beautiful weather & sell one more time! Thanks to both sellers & buyers for a successful season at this flea market!

[@CraftTgurl]

I'm doing my first flea market tomorrow 🤩 I'm down in Texas

[@judym4673]

Much like life 😊, enjoy the journey

[@PaperandMoose]

@@CraftTgurl Hope that it goes well!

[@asterix7842]

I'm thinking of starting selling at the local flea market next spring, so these videos are very entertaining and informative. Love watching them, Renee

[@sand3882]

If you do, I wish you great success and joy doing it!

[@carolynsimone8647]

Nice weather...hope you all had a good day...🥰🥰

[@kathyfehlberg6097]

Love your videos! Being so upbeat and cheery helps we viewers to enjoy the content. I live in NE New Mexico and just got 50 inches of snow. We will send some eastward so no one doubts that winter is on the way!

[@kathleenj1158]

Buying & selling @ the flea market looks like a lot of fun. 🥰

[@pamelabrueckner5106]

Feel like I am right down there with you excitingly digging for gems. One mans junk another mans priceless treasure. Thank you really enjoy my Paper and Moose fix.

[@SweetT12967]

Another great day at the flea :0) You won't believe what my friend stumbled onto! Long story short...I'm driving back and forth between Pennsylvania, WV and Ohio staying with friends. I had just left WV and was only back in PA 1 day when I get this video call from friend in WV. She found an estate sale in Ohio and when she showed up....OH MY! House had been abandoned for over 5 years. Old couple had passed and family just wanted rid of it all. Several out buildings, house, attic, basement and yard was covered. She was the only one there! You would DIE if you could see all of the vintage Christmas lying EVERYWHERE....She was literally picking ornaments(Still in boxes) from dead animal carcasses(Raccoons and such) that had been there so long there was nothing but fur left. I have NO clue how many of the items were not broken. Literally had to be dug out of dirt floor in outbuildings. I told her to get it ALL...LOL. She packed her car and could fit nothing else and he only charged her $30! She went back the next day with reinforcements(Her sister and nieces) and again videod me and again my adivce after seeing the items was to get it ALL...Nobody was there on this day either! They packed a bigger car for $40! I will be going back for Thanksgiving and they plan to let us look again...I beilieve they could have offered him $300 and he would have gave it all to them. There is soooo much left. I'm scared they will just toss what is left...We suspect that the few who showed up and left did not want to dig(It is dirty, old, musty, muddy blah blah...You get the idea.) Wish you could see this goldmine! Here's hoping you will run onto another trash bag house this winter!

[@jacquelynkirby1442]

Awesome w sauce❤

[@PaperandMoose]

This sounds like a dream come true!! I would love to come across something like this! Hopefully the people holding the sale will be excited to have people willing to dig & buy and they won't decide it's time to clean the home/buildings out now. It might be a good thing to offer a certain amount for the ability to pick freely out of all of the buildings, whether that's $300, $500, whatever price you & your friend would be comfortable with. If U-Haul/rental trucks are priced low, might even be a good idea to rent a large truck for a day so that you can fill it up in one shot. Start early in the morning, pack a lunch, & enjoy digging!

[@ppshale7223]

Renee! Thanks for taking us along ! I appreciate you so much!!! Stay safe stay great and keep up the good work!!!!

[@Gabriele-sv9qg]

I always enjoy seeing the same flea market or yard sale or auction from you and Taco Stacks (or the other way around). Each of you has your own perspective. A wonderful sunny day and good sales - a successful end to the flea market season. To be continued next year. Cheers, Gabriele - Berlin

[@ScottVaughn-sb2ok]

I am binge watching all of your storage unit videos, and I just adore your innocent giggles!! Makes me smile every time!! You seem to do very well on most of your units, too!

[@PaperandMoose]

Thank you for watching! I have bought some that weren't that great, but that's to be expected. One storage unit in my area recently sold online for a little over $8,000 - crazy!

[@ScottVaughn-sb2ok]

@PaperandMoose way too rich for me! I'm in Central Illinois, and I've been fortunate enough to do decent on all of the units I have bought, with the exception of one. The bad thing about online auctions is you can't smell the units! Lol!

[@helenbailey8419]

Gorgeous sunrise.As you walked to the FM the red truck was a great contrast

[@amyweaver7413]

I’m glad you’re having such nice weather, and that you sold a lot too!👏👏👏

[@OldJoe1912]

Hi Renee. Glad you had a lovely day at the flea market and managed to sell quite a lot. Nice day for it before the Winter sets in 😊

[@angelsvintagetreasures]

Congrats on a great selling day and bonus nice weather.

[@tammyreeves168]

I wish we had flea markets like you’ll have. We have one about 50 miles from us that is large but it has been taken over by the people selling all the junk toys and items from China. There are only a few actual sellers and they just don’t have much

[@cindymichaud7111]

Another season under your belt, good for you, Renee! God bless 💖✝

[@rozanidesignsmasquerade7050]

Yay❣️ Glad it was a good November flea market day for you. Thanks for taking us along. 👍😍

[@fareast_de]

One more time - and you got fantastic weather over there, compared with Central Europe (cold and foggy). ☁And a lot of customers as well, even including a real giant as we can see at 3:48. Great idea to separate your merchandise into price categories to avoid numerous requests. Flea market season is over, but there are tons of indoor topics to cover: storage wars, mail days, highlights from my collection, reorganizing my ephemera, my letters from Berlin and Vienna etc. etc. And you got a really good chance to reach 100 k subscribers until the end of this year as well. 🤞Keep it up, and have a wonderful weekend (perhaps combined with a short trip to NYC ?!). 🗽Greets from GER, U.

[@CraftTgurl]

@@fareast_de I'm honestly shocked she doesn't have over 1K subscribers. I think she's such a kind person, charming, and fun to watch with great content.

[@A.Leftie]

​@@mrgrumpywombat warmth? I beg to differ...she was rather stiff and awkward at the beginning...it's a complete 360 from the early days. She's much more personable and relaxed now.

[@melinaadamski8408]

@@A.Leftie I was told that she walked a long way from presenting turkey legs until storage wars of today. And Taco helped her a lot to promote this channel. 😋

[@PaperandMoose]

@@melinaadamski8408 I remember those turkey legs! Haha. Taco Stacks was actually my first subscriber and has been such a supporter, lending his advice, encouragement, and his van 😆

[@PaperandMoose]

@@CraftTgurl It takes time & I'm fine with that. Slow & steady wins the race! Many do not like that I do storage unit videos, but that's just another aspect of reselling. It's a means to get inventory for the flea market/online sales and is a method of sourcing that many do, especially if your main method of selling is the flea market. Having videos like storage units do well allow me the time to conduct research for my history videos, though often times I end up scrapping that content because I'm not satisfied with how it turns out or feel that there might be some issues with the content of those videos.

[@kristiwilliams9626]

I always enjoy your videos! Happy Friday!

[@PaperandMoose]

Have a wonderful weekend!

[@helenbailey8419]

😊😊so warm and sunny.Really glad for you

[@sherryzimmerman9220]

So LOVE Americana Flea Market talk……the JOY of community makes us string…

[@CraftTgurl]

@@sherryzimmerman9220 I was noticing that too - love all that. There's just something amazing that happens in general when we slow down enough to take in what is happening around us and to really see and appreciate the connection that happens daily that we likely take for granted in our hustle bustle world.

[@sherryzimmerman9220]

@ loved your message…..at an age now where walking is a bit tougher….your videos give such pleasure in viewing….

[@sherryzimmerman9220]

Excuse my spelling STRONG

[@PaperandMoose]

Attending a flea market is a part of the weekly routine of many people. They meet up with the friends, walk around a bit, grab some coffee & a baked good, & sit down to catch up. There are stories shared about finding a "treasure" that morning, buying something that they've been looking for for years, or just enjoying getting a good deal on a practical item. Each market has their own community, and it is enjoyed by so many ❤

[@rubyred8845]

Nice to see you happy 😊 and prosperous 💵💵

[@susprime7018]

Happy that you only brought home two totes.😊

[@batrn7236]

The music was a nice touch. Enjoy your videos.

[@PaperandMoose]

I accidentally had the camera on time lapse, but still wanted to use the footage, so thought adding music would make it easier to watch 😀

[@mummytumy]

Renee, I was surprised when you said it was midweek. we only have the markets on the weekend. in Australia. yes we get big crowds. so things will go slow now you have winter coming. well thanks for sharing. cheers Owen.

[@PaperandMoose]

There are a few flea markets around that operate during the week. Sometimes the weekday markets are busier than the weekends!

[@mummytumy]

@@PaperandMoose You think there would be more on the weekend. as people not at work. cheers Owen.

[@rudolphbondefangerer5513]

Nice weather. All in all a wonderful time to be alive.

[@nanharrison2997]

It’s beautiful weather in Maryland also.🧡

[@Jeeprgirl]

Glad things went well at the flea market! I love the Bison ornament! Really nice!

[@beverlymerkel6522]

So glad you were at Leesport, i never got a chance to walk around, was busy with customers. I might squeak out another Wed or two, weather has been great. Thanks for sharing.

[@janicerc4906]

Good for you for pursuing your dreams!

[@williamcarpenter3443]

Love going to flea markets and yard sales I'm in south Georgia🎉🎉🎉

[@A.Leftie]

There are flea markets in these parts??? 😳😲😳

[@TermaMary]

Buttons! I love sorting buttons

[@simsjef]

Great episode as always.

[@patdrake8859]

It is good you only had 2 totes left, as this was most like your last flea market of the year. You will only have to store that much for the winter.

[@ritahasz7352]

Fun day😊

[@marisolpinney8406]

Great video Renee ❤

[@mariagarcia-po6kl]

Hey Renee. For you and Taco Stack's this was a wonderful Flea Market day. And hope next year will be the same. I'm glad to have seen the video today. Sorry Renee, I haven't been feeling well at all. But your video's give me time to heal. God Bless you Renee and Taco Stack's for an amazing Flea Market day. HUG'S 🤗❤️💙👍 to you both. Mari'a. ❤️🤗💙💙💙🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️💕💞💝💜💙👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍂🍁🍂🍁🦃🦃🦃🦃

[@kimby81]

Hope you’re feeling better soon 😊

[@PaperandMoose]

Hope that you feel better soon! Take the time to rest, relax, and heal!

[@DonVDBorgh]

When I first was reading your opening comment, I had to double take as I miss read it to say a "snow day".... I need a nap 😄. Was that your sewing machine in box we seen Taco help with? Hope not, can't give up before you even start. Thanks for sharing, hope that overall was a great year & looking forward to 2025 markets 👍👍

[@PaperandMoose]

No snow days yet! The sewing machine was from a storage unit, so no worries- I still have mine 🙂

[@LindenSmith-w3b]

I enjoyed the video, and looks like you enjoyed yourself. Weather was pretty good. Buying and selling looked to be fairly average for you I guess.

[@SHERRY0010]

Makes winter a lot shorter when you have extended warm weather 😂

[@sandylynn1912]

Yes❤

[@kittywood4243]

Too bad flea market season is about over. Enjoyed the video.

Team work!

Winter is coming renee have a great day❤😊

[@michaeltreadwell777]

I LOVE seeing you and Taco working together - you seem to just 'click'. Looks like you had a good day selling. Is it a mixture of both your stuff - how do you divide the takings :? Anyway Rene' thanks for taking us along - always a thrill to watch your videos. Take special care 🙂 X X

[@firecracker4151]

I think it's cool that you and Taco Stacks are partners in selling. Tell him he's too thin.

[@mikemiller2246]

Very nice video,thank you!

[@chrissiemorton4126]

Snowed on monday today friday it's melting at 10 above!!

[@PaperandMoose]

Snow?? Oh wow!

[@EfficientRVer]

I'm fixing the situation that I've been subscribed to Taco but not you, by subscribing. Everything you do seems to always make sense to me, while sometimes things he does has me yelling advice at the screen. Especially when he leaves a bonanza of an estate auction with only $37 of stuff each and every time, lol. Maybe I should just admit that I enjoy an occasional train wreck. In his defense, what he does, works... and he has an excellent work ethic, an excellent attitude, and treats everyone well. He was smart to choose a business where he can do well by seizing mostly small opportunities while completely missing/dismissing obvious big opportunities unless he stumbles into them cheaply. Anyway, I do enjoy watching his channel, and your version of this 11/6/24 flea market was so excellent that I want to see more of your videos. Some to catch up, some in the future.

[@cherylmellblom5471]

Please show us your Christmas tree.

[@stephenritz5581]

Did you realize you were quoting The King ("Are You Lonesome Tonight")? "Now the stage is bare / And I'm standing there / With emptiness all around ... " (and then, as Dickel might conclude, "And if you won't come back to me / They can bring the curtain down." Loved the little bit of disco and fast moving - like you had an LP on 78 rpm (but that wouldn't work because you needed that wide spindle to play 78s, right?). Fun, average day. Have you ever tried graphing the # or $ of sales over time? You could develop a table for the exact most profitable time to leave in different kinds of weather, at different times of year, etc. Not really. Glad you sold out, mostly. The YS ornament was a great gift. Have a fab Friday afternoon and weekend. Thanks for the video & your time & talent! (My trip is over - I am at the airport hotel in Vienna waiting on an early flight tomorrow. At least going west one gets back the same day one leaves!).

[@PaperandMoose]

The fast moving was a mistake on my part, as I had the camera filming on time lapse. Oops! I wanted to use the Benny Hill theme music because I thought it would have fit well, but too much money to purchase the license to use. It seems across the board, except at one flea market, the usual time for us to leave is around 10am. We sell between 4-5 hours, with the heaviest sales being first thing as we are setting up. By 10am, our inventory has lessened and so staying for another hour to make $10 (if we are doing our $1 days), doesn't make sense to us. For others, they stay all day and that works for them (especially those that have permanent spots). Weather also plays a big part in the market, so we have to adjust to that as well. It would be interesting to talk to those with the permanent/monthly spots to see what their experience is. Some of those also set up at 1am during the summertime, so they've already been selling for several hours before we even get there. Those are the ones that probably look forward to winter break the most! Hope that you have safe travels back!!

Hi Renee, you are such a sweet person. We old people watch you and Taco Stacks all day. It seems he leaves Salsa alone too much … but I just have to tell you to STOP apologizing for little things you do. Like how you say button and how you opened that suitcase, or if it’s cruel to go through someone’s house. I understand some people are a little less apt to understand. But they all should know you would never do anything cruel to anyone! Ok, rant over. Have a good rest of whatever! ❤❤❤

I agree. Salsa is alone too much
