Found the VINTAGE DEALS! | SHOPPING the Springfield FLEA MARKET Extravaganza

FLEA MARKET SHOPPING VLOG for ANTIQUES & VINTAGE to RESELL on EBAY and in Person!
The giant Springfield Antique Extravaganza is more than a mere flea market, but we're picking it for things marked at flea market prices! We start with a few moments from a meet-and-greet that kicked off our busy Saturday, we get to meet some great viewers and other KZbin channel creators...but then it's back to the booth for a full day's selling! We barely have time to film the neighbors' spaces.
That's why Sunday morning, I leave my booth closed so I can try to restock! Sales have been brisk, and I'm a motivated shopper...but with so many KZbinrs shopping this show, I'm going to need a strategy to find any hidden bargains. I start at a friend's booth outside, picking a silhouette tray, a great tooled leather purse and some more fun vintage; but my m.o. is to go inside, where the higher end dealers who didn't benefit from the perfect outdoor show weather are hungry for sales!
Who says there's no bargains at antique shows? We turn up a Bimini Werkstatte vase for just $12 (retail value $45-65), a pile of fun 1910s-30s paper ephemera for $1/each and some original black light posters that were so good, I'm saving them to debut in tonight's Thrift Battle finale (versus Kat the Nurse Flipper, 9 pm eastern on the channel ‪@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter‬ ). A $50 cafe plate for $10 in another booth shows us that we're finding fresh fields to pick, even on Sunday after three days selling! We also get a great lesson about cast iron from friends/viewers who sell at this show.
We sure find a lot of other fun things to explore at this giant antique extravaganza, including:
1930s washing machine, Cub Cadet sign, galvanized laundry tub, AMF pedal car, 1950s metal porch rocker, modernist metal love seat, Ty Cobb baseball bat, Johnny Bench baseball bat, signed Pete Rose baseball bat, orrery, early Apple computer, JumboTron light bar, Igloo galvanized cooler, 1910s-1950s restaurant ware, hassock fan, Pilgrim Glass snail and cat, Nippon vase and candle holders, Rainbow Glass decanters, Fly Gone device, Olympia Lunar Lamp, black rotary phone, band castrator, McCoy window vase with bird, cast iron standing bird cage, animatronic 1930s bear girl, Victorian paisley shawl, basket and fan 1930s quilts, Tea Leaf ironstone, handle-less 1840s coffee cup, Umanoff bar, Martz lamps, brutalist metal Tom Green light fixture, day-glo and black light posters, 1910s leather advertising tack for horse parades, 1920s parts cabinet, silk kimono, yellow birds of happiness, circa 1900 glass cordial set in mushroom glass holder, 1930s brown deco Kodak box camera, Ben Cooper Halloween masks, small table top loom, Carling Beer constables tray and bar sign, Hellenic 1960s tumblers, pre-1910 cast iron with gate marks, Lodge/Wagner/Griswold cast iron, Occupied Japan lighter, 1960s kewpies, Van Briggle "heart" pitcher, etc.

[@amyhartman8068]

I love how you talk with the dealers and we learn more. I appreciate that.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I want to do more of that! There is so much knowledge in this group of people

[@timhazeltine3256]

Kudos for calling out Sam's kindness in taking photos for the meet and greet.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Well she was nice and I wanted her to get her due! It was lots of fun but the meet-and-greet was so hectic and fast that I'm sure some people were overlooked

[@julychils]

The dealer selling the cast iron was quite knowledgeable and interesting. Im not really into cast iron, but I love learning the history on anything.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That's me too, once I know what makes something interesting then I get interested too, even if just vicariously

[@abbyW]

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen something in your videos, heard the story behind it, and then added it to my treasure hunt list! Thank you George for my new appreciation for all things antique and vintage!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm so excited to hear that! I love collecting and giving people new fun interests is fun for me too

[@rachelhey1901]

Great shout out to Pink Elephant Parlor 🐘 👏

[@lorrainebowden2683]

Hello George, Your videos are amazing. I always learn so many new things from you. It was awesome to hear (the horse purse) vendor telling you how much she’s improved the way she sells because of watching you. I could hear the joy in your heart as I listened to your conversation with her. And I admire how generous you are with your knowledge of things and how you share all the new information other sellers share with you. But, mostly, I admire how compassionate you are for all people… living and deceased. You are a wonderful addition to the KZbin family. ❤

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm so thankful for your wonderful praise! I try to do all those things, but it's genuinely out of love for this old stuff and sharing it with the people who feel the same way

[@bamanza231]

Your channel inspirers me to start selling my vintage and antique things I have collected for years. I love the education I get from watching, Thank You 😊

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

That’s great, share them and then you can be open to new things to collect!

[@karencielinski]

Thank you for reaching out to Sam and giving her a shout out for her kindness during the meet and greet. “Do things for people not because of who they are or what they can do in return, but because of who you are,”

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I felt it was important! I certainly didn't expect such an overwhelming response, it's not surprising some people didn't get the involvement they'd hoped because it was very hard to keep track of who's who

[@BAILASOLA1]

George thanks again for an extremely entertaining and informative video. I love the way you enhance other members of the antique trade community. is amazing how we are able to sense the honest and sincere admiration you guys have for each other. All of you make us feel like family. I guess when you dedicate yourself to accumulate so much knowledge about the history of this pieces you also accumulate the humanity they represent, the people, the ages, the history, and their beauty is what fascinate us so much. And you do it so so well. we can feel how much you enjoy it. You remind me of that phrase, "like a kid in a candy store". The work you do for the antiques community is outstanding. I've always had high interest for antiques but the way you manage to make us feel like if we were right there with you make us absolutely love them. Knowledge is an art and in the process of applying this specific one you are a master. And... that's what happens when you love what you do. Again, thank you so much!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Wow, what a nice thing to say! I appreciate it very much, I do think it's true that people are easiest to approach when they're sharing their passions and I'm so glad I get to do that and share it here

[@CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

Good evening, George! $25.00 seemed like a steal on that porch rocker. The Vincent Price photo, in the old frame, was cool. Loved that Coralene decanter set! I liked all of that cast iron! That guy certainly knew his cast iron, too. Most interesting! That heavily carved table was super nice! It looked like you were having a blast there. Lots of really nice items. Thanks for the take-along!!!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! It was a real bargain. Everyone loved the VIncent Price photo during the premiere, I should've noticed it more! The cast iron info was really helpful to me and I figured you would also appreciate it...I was pleasantly surprised how many other people liked hearing about it. Springfield is always fun!

[@janetpogue4970]

Hi George 🖐 I am so glad to see u our booth.

[@shirleyann5420]

My first washing machine was an Easy Spindryer. That was in 1964. My great aunt gave it to me. Came in handy with a baby. It worked well.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Neat! With a baby it would have been ideal to have those separate functions

[@lolaseymour1532]

You are never at a loss to find value & increase your information!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I'm always trying!

Family of 4 girls...our pink kitchen!!!!!! When my folks stopped ranching,,1994...everyone in second hand business dad says started to hide,,,,so much now i think went in that move. And we still kept a lot for the family rendezvous place..lol. I think kitchen went before ranch where I have cried many a tear over the Barbie Dream House..lol. I adore how all help each other having such a good time with their things and buying from each other supporting each other.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Hi there! I'm glad this triggered a memory. Losing childhood toys is often the gateway to collecting, oddly enough! We do really enjoy hanging out and sharing our mutual interests

[@janetkorsak]

I noticed you have an ice bucket made by west bend (I think). I inherited my Grandma’s but we used it to keep the dinner rolls warm. I’ve never seen one before. You are so knowledgeable George…and very down-to-earth and relatable, I enjoy your videoes.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh, thank you! I love the West Bend penguin ice bucket, but they made others too

[@janetkorsak]

@@TheAntiqueNomad the one I have is the Penguin. Unfortunately, all my close family have passed on or moved out of state, so no need for warm rolls.

[@soflasub]

thank you for taking the time to bring us with you ..............learned alot!

[@iamgabriel5823]

Wow, the cast iron guy was very interesting and informative. Thanks for another interesting video.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

He was great! Thanks for watching

[@karenjohnson7329]

Holy COW! The Portage Hotel is long gone, but I have a mighty need for a reminder of my beloved Akron.

[@avickia]

I truly love your videos, because you share so much history of various items -- even as you learn it yourself. Thank you!

[@marie-christinezorn1037]

LUV the child's pink kitchen appliances. I had a set very similar in the late 50s. We saw that bird cage w skeleton! Seller told my dghtr she hung the skeleton to draw attention to the birdcage. Lol. We enjoyed meeting you George & will look for you nxt yr too! Best wishes and Happy Selling! Chris in Springfield.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

It was so much fun to meet you too! Happy selling indeed, I look forward to next May there

[@pammywhammy3521]

George you are a Rock star!!!⭐❤😀

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Well I wouldn't go that far, but I enjoy having a bunch of fellow enthusiasts around!

[@TinaLouise528]

Love the Iron man.

[@seaside2001]

Lots of interesting things. Thanks George.

[@angelsvintagetreasures]

Streaks in your world have been "The item of the day" in my world. Anyone who's shopped with me over the years knows the game. For the longest time, the chrome penguin ice bucket was 'it'! Last Sunday, the 2nd at Alameda it was typewriters (albeit, high priced ones.) Except one vendor. His was $10! It needed some "love" that I was unable to give it. It didn't come home with me.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I still like the penguin ice bucket! I found glass at one Alameda, pottery at one and airplane propellers at one. It’s like it all comes out at once!

[@janetpogue4970]

great seeing your friends. I know of a few of them and enjoy their channels. Everyone is fun in their own way! ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤❤

[@katherinelane299]

Just to show my support and to tell you, again, how much I enjoy your videos.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I appreciate that! Thank you so much!

[@dlday7821]

Hey George, Peggy enjoyed seeing the old Stenograph machine. She has been a Stenographer since 1984.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh that's cool! I will send you an email now btw

[@tammyreneewalker5244]

The vast knowledge we learn from you makes every video exciting, even when you learn something new!😊 While I am not a reseller, learning & seeing items I never new existed makes it even more special. 💕

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I’m so glad! This is about collecting, I’m a reseller but only because there are collectors

[@dollygresh4415]

Fun to see all those things

[@gramnenew6196]

Wow! Very cool and interesting items and knowledge George. Great to see “new” pieces.

[@martisteele6542]

This was great and so much information!! Thank you!

Your great George! I enjoyed this so much. Glad you sold so much merchandise at this show. Hope your van gets fixed without any glitches

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Thanks again! All turned out well, even the van

[@ozarkzoe]

Hi George I am glad you got to shop some . I enjoyed buying as much as selling when I sat up at Swamp Meets.I am only 50 miles from Rolla. Loved learning about cast iron from Ron. Thanks for sharing. That birdcage was amazing.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Ron and his wife have been really nice to get to know! I was so appreciative of his information.

[@terris6322]

Take care George! Another fun vlog.

Thanks 👍

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

So cute for the price

[@MimisTreasureCottage]

George, you are such a sweet and kind man. Sam just topped 1000 subscribers, I'm sure in part due to your shout-out. My friend next door growing up had that pink kitchen set I was always very envious of it.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Aww, thanks, I'm glad! I remember the other girls being jealous of the one who had the big appliances

[@lynnjudkins9078]

Oh I’m happy for this video thanks

I'm glad! Me too

What a great variety of items & lots of interesting information. I did see a Fenton Christmas fairy lamp like one I purchased in the Pennyrile gift shop when I was a waitress in the 70’s.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

I remember the West Virginia and Kentucky resort parks all sold Fenton in the gift shops! I'm glad you're involved with the rebuild at Pennyrile

Leather goods like your horse head purse should be plentiful in Cadiz and lake areas. The prisoners in Eddyville prison made those for spending money for years. They had a small booth in front of the prison. They even personalized items and took special orders. I still have one of my Mom’s wallets here I think.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

It's true! I've bought and sold a couple of them around here, but people in this area actually collect them now so I don't find many like I used to do.

[@TinaLouise528]

I’ll have to attend if there is anything like this in Ky.

It does a bit, you may be right! They are one of my favorite bands, but I didn't see that somehow

[@lynnedelacy2841]

We saw a Cream farewell show in Madison Sq Garden as we were in NYC for my nephew’s 18th in 2005 We went to the show ‘as a treat’ for him but it was of course for the benefit of his parents and me ! Sadly Jack and Ginger are no longer with us There was a documentary about Ginger’s colourful life not long before he died and he decided he didn’t like the interviewers questions - so he started hitting him with his walking stick He also produced a Drum Technique Masterclass DVD which is fascinating. - he really knew his stuff
