Get Them While They're Cheap! | Flea Market Vintage Shopping for Deals

Legions of vintage and antique vendors bring their best to Florida's huge Mount Dora Antique Extravaganza in this tantalizing video! There's so much to see in this one, and a lot of fun people...‪@TheNurseFlipper‬ , ‪@LakeshoreFinds‬ and other great social media friends of ours come to shop, sell and hang out with me at this hugely varied antique show, mall, shops and flea market-all located next to one another!
We shop the booth of a viewer doing her first ever 'real world' antique show, where Alaskan figures look a little overdressed for Florida...so we'll take them back to the Northwest! Cool cocktail shakers, a bargain priced Blenko piece...we find some great deals to sell in our booth while we're out filming and visiting friends.
But it's not just what we buy to flip for a profit that captures our interest. We see an amazing pair of full-size figural lamps worth many thousands, discover a map that could put us at war with England, and learn Transcendentalism from Ralph Waldo Emerson. From slave cribs to the fanciest oak ice box ever, there's so much to discover at this huge antique and vintage show!

Give this man his own TV show! He is so entertaining, just him and a camera

[@pattyebricker4924]

I totally agree. Just George ALL BY HIMSELF is the most informative and entertaining.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Aww thanks! That would be fun

[@Pampnaylor]

I agree! Do it!

I agree!

[@maries2313]

George takes us to school and we all come away smarter. I appreciate "old things" so much more thanks to you putting such rich context and dates to all the pieces you share with us. Thank you.

[@CC-ed7od]

I can't imagine how honored people must feel with you shopping their booth!

[@yvonnesangster2934]

Yes I would think so!

[@janetpogue4970]

Dear George, I just wanted to say that our entire family loves your videos. You are definitely an authority on antiques. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge. We appreciate your time and effort. Sincerely, Di and family.

[@janetpogue4970]

Hi George! Thank you

[@lynnnadeau7162]

Hi George, Sorry in advance, for the long text. 😅 You are so sweet and kind to those of us that are trying to venture into their passion and love for vintage and antiques. Thank you for featuring my little spot. I plan to start soon with my eBay store, “Cottage Collectibles”. I have recently retired from a real estate career, selling new homes. And new homes need these beautiful antiques to separate them from the everyday mundane copy cat stuff that is out in the retail stores. I’m so excited to get started and maybe even have a utube channel one day. Everyone that has started a channel, say, their only regret was not starting sooner. I think I’m a little scaredy cat! 😉🤣 George, I firmly believe, those that help others help themselves. I believe your popularity is expanding due to your generosity and knowledge. Your vast knowledge is helpful to those that specialize in different areas. I like it all, glass, pottery, china, art, handbags, just anything that is unique or well made. I started going to antique stores when I was in my 20’s. While my friends were at the mall looking for the latest, trendiest, item to purchase, I was looking at and loving all the oldest stuff I could find. The only problem, I couldn’t afford anything. Prices today are so much more affordable. I still can’t believe folks don’t look to purchase more from antiques and vintage to purchase quality and not have a home that looks like everyone else’s. The more quality, the more unique, the better. I love you George, and hope to see you again soon! ❤️

[@brgnhntrdi6081]

Hello, Our family is a George fan, too. I, personally, love how George introduces new people to the vast youtube following community! Everyone I know prefers youtube to cable t.v. His knowledge is so impressive. And, the fact that he so graciously shares that knowledge just gives hope to humanity. Seriously! We need that today. I hope that George has inspired you to take to the youtube community. I bet that you would be welcomed quickly. I will be looking for your channel. I am sure George would give you a shout-out, too. Good luck to you! Sincerely, Di.

[@lorieedmonds5514]

It was great seeing the nurse flipper and Dalton in the video! There are lots of very interesting things at the show!

[@laraemitchell9064]

Yes! Nice to see them here. Dalton is such a handsome little boy, going up fast - as kids have a habit of doing.

[@laraemitchell9064]

Noticed the fancy decorated satin Christmas ornaments like Yvon thrifty rich was selling. Next to the carnival bowl. (I used to make those ornaments, and now I’ve graduated to beaded ornament covers). Always nice two follow George around to these shows and antique malls, and estate sales! 😍💚

[@doriwilson6991]

Dalton has the most gorgeous eyes. Mommy is going to have girl problems when he's older. 😁

[@ozarkzoe]

Dalton is absolutely adorable 😍

[@enamor_amie]

This looks like a fun market to shop! Such a wide variety of items!

[@jfkpatriot1215]

Hi George... I certainly appreciate all the history you know of each of the different items. It means so much more than the item itself. Wish antique stores would provide more info about their items as it provides for more interesting shopping! I appreciate all your knowledge. They don't make most things with quality anymore unfortunately.

[@velmamendoza1120]

Another informative video by George. If there is something you want about, just ask him. Thanks George!!

George! I used to manage a couple antiques/vintage stores in St Petersburg, and I remember chatting with you when you came in. You were always so friendly. It's great to see you here on KZbin. I appreciate seeing your wealth of knowledge and detailed explanations - subscribed!

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Oh thank you! I think I remember you now that I see your avatar better. I think you started there shortly after I moved out as a dealer

[@cherylhuot4436]

George, I learn something new with every video! So many fun, interesting pretties! Thanks for the fun lessons. That mid century furniture is so amazing. When my best friend and I moved in together after high school, mid 70s, we had a set like the bucket chairs and table. Lots of memories.

There were butternut trees in Missouri… my grandpa liked to go out in the woods and he would collect the nuts from the trees he had located for my grandma to use in her divinity! Best divinity I’ve ever had!!!

[@bjebenstein]

I was in Mount Dora, FL years ago and still remember it as a wonderful place for antiques. I hope the summer theater is still there. It was also terrific.

[@GrannysGarage333]

I found one of those life size nativity cutouts from a lady that had them stored under a porch… was at her farm buying wooden crates and when I saw it I had to have it!! Got it for $20!! Everything was there and in perfect condition except for the camel… He was losing the graphics and his paper was peeling…. I had just started a booth in Poulsbo WA…. Once I got them home I saw they were SIGNED!!! I can’t recall the name right now but he was a famous mid century illustrator…. It sold in less than 2 days for $400!!! Which just told me I sold it too cheap! Lol I wish I could upload a pic… but that was a great great find!!! Thanks for reminding me! Oh and I used to live in Davenport just southeast of Mt Dora… sorry I never made it up there now☹️

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Which store in Poulsbo? I've bought a lot of cool things there over time. What a cool find on the nativity stuff, great buy!

Yes, and I've seen those before, should've thought of it!

Sick glass is very often a simple to remove salt deposit and very easy to remove with simple white vinegar. The astringent vinegar dissolves most salt stains instantly....including those on shoes and boots and winter outerwear.

[@pyrexmaniac]

The quality of the merchandise in today's video was absolutely incredible! This is far better than most big shows with their tediously repetitive dealers with their sky-high prices. I could have filled a 24 foot truck with all the incredible merchandise you showed.....I must have hit rewind a dozen times.

[@elizabethdugan7972]

Hi George, I just started watching you and you are a wealth of knowledge. Do you sell at the Palm Beach Antique show? I see you like pottery and it made me think of a famous potter in Canada Mary Borgstrom. Have you seen the series on you tube “The potter’s house” it is on the Curiousity Inc channel? I think you would enjoy the content.

[@karenmassie1239]

When you were showing the restaurant milkshake mixers the memories of my local restaurant came to mind. It was a Bobs Big Boy restaurant. My mouth dropped open when you mentioned that many of those mixers wound up at the dump. But even more surprising was that it was a Bobs Big Boy. Lol! Loved your video. 👍🏻😊

[@daveinthemedctr6640]

RE: 16:35 I would think that a "loved" carnival glass piece would hold some of it's value, while I can appreciate that a pristine (unused) piece would command top-dollar, there's a certain charm to knowing a piece was actually used for the purpose that was intended.

[@TheAntiqueNomad]

Well I can’t dispute that!

Just two cents…

That was a beautiful butternut piece. The reason that it is similar to walnut is because it IS walnut, white walnut as opposed to black walnut. Butternut trees grow in Illinois (I gathered them as a kid). They also grow in Missouri and Arkansas.I don't believe they're very common anymore.

The signs that have Mathers written in French is in st.eustache , Quebec. There’s the huge quarry, a drive-in that still shows movies and which holds a huge flea market too during the day. The best place to find all the “good junk❤️”. Definitely a place to check out if you ever visit Montreal.

[@brgnhntrdi6081]

Glendale, West Virginia, had the best flea market for a long time, which was located at the drive-in also. It was then turned into a place to store equipment and now is cleared out again. I sure hope that Glendale brings back that flea market.
