Goodwill Blue Box Jewelry Unboxing | Goodwill Jewelry Jar Haul Bluebox to Resell on Ebay

[@merceperez7381]

Liked the fast forward on the detangling. Also would be nice to see a few things your sister makes.

[@kjirsten11]

Hi! I'm 99% sure all of the smaller odd shaped stones on the necklace are all fluorite (no quarts or amethyst). Fluorite comes in green, purple, blue, clear, and sometimes yellow for the most part. I collect rocks and minerals. : ) The larger round beads probably are amethyst like you said. Very nice necklace!

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Yes!! I think you are right! Thank you!!

[@mamatimeposh9114]

I would check that one if it's silver

[@MsShellectable]

Watching your unboxing videos is strangely calming to me. A sort of visual ASMR. No tingles, but quite soothing to see you sort the pretty baubles.

[@julierundlett2736]

Oh yeah the red antique beads are mesmerizing!!!

[@simonenz3889]

The fast forward detangling is fun.

[@bvintage316]

You can Sell gold filled jewelry for scrap too! Don’t get rid of it in a lot.

[@marlenemcmillan8891]

Lots of fun video..I totally love that large artsy green brooch..plus its signed

[@debs7368]

I have several pieces of Jewel Kade. You can Google the brand and get more information. Some of the charms, like the one you have, are very popular . They also make beautiful wrap around leather bracelets. Most charms are made to order, depending on what you would like encased in the glass and pewter housing. I actually just looked, and found one very similar to the one you have, going for about $40.00, on ebay. 😊

[@kellyburgess356]

The cat earring is a vintage danforth pewter earring.

[@mistollievintage2792]

Margaret that gemstone necklace is magnificent...I would keep and wear for a while... 😊

[@LadyB_20]

I iked the butterfly ring. I love butterfly themed pieces

[@heididepotter8136]

I loved the green stoned earrings

[@CuriosityRocks]

I like that Angel wing necklace. I have a tip for any Angel wing items you find, put Good Omens, Aziraphale in your listing, it’s a very popular book and tv show, if you find any snake items, put Good Omens, Crowley in your listing.

[@andreabradley5837]

My favorite was the funky beaded native American looking necklace. Very unique.

[@shelbydennis6252]

DP is Danforth Pewter :) great box!

[@ANPC-pi9vu]

The chips in that are actually all different colors of fluorite, though I agree the round beads are amethyst! Fluorite comes in wide range of colors representing some variation of every color in the rainbow as well as clear or milky, with blue being the rarest color. It sometimes comes in a layered form called rainbow fluorite, most commonly a combination of greens, clear, milky, purples, and a touch of blue... but rainbow fluorites with greater contrast and sharply defined layering can be more valuable. You can tell the difference between a fluorite and a variety of quartz not by the color but by the sheen and how light moves through it. Quartz is glassier, while fluorite has a haziness to it even at it's clearest, and a satin sheen to it's surface instead of the high gloss look of polished or cut quartz. That's the quickest way to tell the difference. It's also a 4 on the hardness scale where as quartz is a 7.

[@susangill45]

Boy I wish my detangle got went that quick

[@karenhopper1691]

Oh, my favorite jewelry unboxing! My box is coming tomorrow, can't wait!

[@RobinDonnelly1208]

I LOVE that bracelet that you referred to as Brighton like.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Thank you!!

[@JudyGibbs4]

Love the earrings you are wearing!

[@mistollievintage2792]

This box was amazing... so happy for you 😻😻😻

[@charrussell5774]

love the stone necklace glad you found it upfront so the box was paid for. that unusual beaded necklace on that swoop metal piece , the metal piece is a bookmark, i was just researching those yesterday for my friend who got a similar one in a jewelry box. they come in like 50 piece lots of "antique" tibetan bookmarks, so i'd guess it was artisan made.

[@lauramcminn5827]

The fine chain in the bird nest pendant is most likely sterling. I used to buy lots of fine sterling chains back in the day😉

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Thank you, Laura McMinn!

[@madrose3568]

The cat earring is from a Local Vermont company called Danforth and Pewter, and they have a bit of a following!

[@dianajemison105]

Yes! Love those red bead and that huge brooch is pretty incredible! Let us know what you discover. : )

[@reginaromsey]

I like the fact that you have a high power jewelers magnifier. It drives me crazy when other people squint at pieces and complain the can’t read something!

[@lauramcminn5827]

Don't lot the gold-filled! It's a much different process than plating, and is a much thicker layer of gold. Definitely worth scrap if you don't sell the pieces themselves. But I'd try selling the pieces first. Gold-filled is actually worth much more than sterling. Gold-filled jewelry/supplies are considered a lifetime/heirloom product

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Laura McMinn, :) Thank you very much!! :)

[@maryluna5282]

People undermine gold filled because of ebays made in china gf listed for 3c ... but no ..a reputable gf usa company supplying real gf price it way more expensive then sterling even buy it back for scrap... gf is real precious metal..

[@gatheringmoss5726]

For $19.99, that's a great box. Certainly better than most Goodwill jewelry jars at that price. If you lay a soft, heavy fabric over your display tray, you won't get all the "clacking" noise in your videos. Better yet, fabric alone would work better than the tray. Thanks for sharing the box. I'm curious about trying one myself.

[@silviapaolini8693]

Beautiful gemstone necklace.

[@FatBirdFinds]

Just love a good jewelry unboxing!!!

[@nancymckay-russell4360]

nice like the first necklace & red beads!

[@carolinamartinez9527]

I looked up the Silver Emily Ray designer necklace looks like there is a comp on ebay with the same glass piece stating it is vintage so you can hopefully get at the least $20. Many of the Poshmark listings are $50 and up. Most have alot more stone but still a good piece of jewelry.

[@flyinjenny]

Ack, that tie tac I would love to get a closer look at, I'd be interested in buying that on its own.

[@lindacalfee5965]

I really like the silver pandora bracket never gotten a box but I keep trying

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I have to wait right at the moment! :)

[@Kim-xp3xw]

Thank you for doing these videos

[@bexbarnes7259]

Have that exact infinity necklace haha got it from my mam as a prest from her to anouce she was clear from cancer

[@BOLOBuddies]

Great Necklace

[@killionaire3651]

Some nice finds this video!

[@NayLosThriftTalk]

Love the blue boxes!! Sooo fun :)

[@gaillacombe8875]

Love you narration!

[@lessthanthreecarissa]

You should definitely do an earring lot for the ones that are missing mates. I know some people like wearing mismatched earrings. It could sell.

[@athenap4297]

That was fun to watch!

[@adapoole4515]

That necklace rainbow looking on leather string with dangling beads looks American Indian jewelry.

[@mariahsiebert8145]

Ah! I love that coral looking necklace!! If it’s still available let me know!

[@דניאלגרוספלד-מ3ד]

Hell yeah girl I open mine yesterday!

[@samanthajo491]

I’m pretty sure that the earring that looks like the world or a globe is actually from wish.com. I have a bracelet with a similar design.

[@DavidGridley]

I have lot of crosses like that big one.. have never actually tried selling them online but I bet you could have gotten $20 with the original silver chain.+++++++++++++++++++++

[@kwyatt97]

Just a heads up ... gold fill scraps close to sterling price.

[@mysteryguy793]

when they have a makers name with 925 do you test them for silver or take their word for it?

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Test

[@susanfontaine5214]

Waste of precious time.

[@fabulouslifeinchrist1349]

Normally, if it is used and fake the brownish copper shows through. I have only come across one fake bracelet with Thailand with 925 Thailand

[@mysteryguy793]

@@fabulouslifeinchrist1349 that is not what I meant. Not 925 thailand. But say J Crew Sterling. Or Coro Sterling. Would you still test if it is silver. Or would the maker's Name suffice?

[@christinahhuchro5111]

What do you like to use to polish up your silver?

[@deborahingrim2168]

Noticed about 10 items that are right off of a Chinese cheap jewelry wish.com etc type website. Most worth less than 1 dollar. But, I guess if they sell go for it????

[@lawilson674]

Some wish.com items are knockoffs of real jewelry pieces. So, maybe she has the original or maybe the knockoff (?).

[@lindacalfee5965]

I like little frog it as cute Never gotten one of the box I just to late

[@GodsThirdAcre]

That asymmetrical necklace almost looks like the Egyptian eye symbol.

[@lillianmartinez4704]

where do you sell your bead lots i work for a nonprofit i do art classes with the kids

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I sell the craft/wear/repair jewelry bags on Ebay and I also sell them directly with a Paypal invoice. Email me at [e-mail] if you are interested!

Where do you buy the goodwill blue boxes? That box had some very pretty pieces. TFS!

[@JustCardsBySara]

How did u go with jk wing necklace??

[@PsycoliciousMe]

I'm trying to justify spending money on a box for myself but can't quite pull the trigger yet. I want to try one out SO bad though!! One day....

[@WaltzingWithcrystals]

Definate sell on the artsy, hand made hair piece necklace!👍 $40ish?

[@LakotaCat]

you might be able to sell that weird necklace (at 12.30) if you put keywords in like "Burner necklace", "Burning Man jewelry", Burning Man Jewelry Lot" etc. People who go to Burning Man wear really bizzare and unusual jewelry and outfits. And they will pay a lot of money for items. Look up Burning Man images and see what people are wearing. In a video you did from 2018 you had a couple of amazing pieces that Burners would have loved to have. I didn't post about it in that video since I doubt you read comments from posts that old. But keep in mind Burning Man when you find weird stuff. (Especially stuff that doesn''t have anything that can fall off since Burners are not allowed to leave a single piece of glitter on the ground after BM is over, as it must pass the Bureau of Land Management's final examination of the area afterwards.)

[@raindrop5273]

Don't lot that giant broch. It is too cool. If you are not going to sell it, maybe use as Christmas tree ornament.

[@pichipichi1525]

Let me how much you going to that brooch for green stones and garnets ?

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I'm probably aiming for $80. Email me if you are interested: [e-mail]

[@kathyruhlmann8361]

I want that little 🐸 frog. Please

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Sure! Email me at [e-mail] and we can work it out!

[@WaltzingWithcrystals]

Last week I priced a leather braided cord with silver clasp and was surprised at the price my vendor listed. Vender is WHOLESALE & it was not affordable at $35 bucks! It was italian. No way would I purchased it at that price to flip!

[@lesliejohnson7247]

EDIT: I hadn’t seen your gold & silver (or stones) discoveries when I posted the first reply. I think this still applies but to a lesser extent. I really hesitate to respond because it may come across negatively. But I mean this in the kindest way. Sourcing IS fun. But if you’re backlogged so much that you can’t take the time to sell, maybe it’s time to stop buying these boxes until you get further along in your listings. You seemed to have a few items (half a dozen or so) that you were on the fence on, but then quickly put it in with the lots. This is the hardest thing to work on. And if you’ve increased your weekly goal for 2020, you need to get everything you have listed! Or be ruthless and get rid of what you haven’t listed. Either donate it, or put it on sale - create interest in your listings by offering things at a loss, just to get rid of them. They call it a loss leader in retail. Your death pile costs you money. Make your listings work for you rather than having inventory sitting on a shelf costing you space, your time (and clogging your brain with negativity) which wears you down.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

I do get where you are coming from. I justify it because it's my only form of entertainment. lol

[@lesliejohnson7247]

The hair clip

[@cathifamjourney469]

That huge pin is quite beautiful, I would buy it listed as is in a minute. Why dont you set it for auction and let the public decide how much its worth. Just an idea.

[@cherylacampora670]

luv your videos!!! does your sister have a website?

[@TexasGalTreasures]

No. I wish

[@dawnbracknell914]

Have you looked up gold filled prices. They have a value, usually more than silver. You are losing money, by not saving that.

[@raindrop5273]

Or at least lot the two to sell on ebay.

[@lauramcminn5827]

Yes! Gold filled is worth money. The process is different than plating, and is a much thicker layer of gold.

[@TexasGalTreasures]

Thank you!!!

[@annmariemarciano8151]

Hi Margaret, I'm somewhat of a new subscriber and loving your videos. For some reason, I'm not getting notified when a new video is uploaded. I've subscribed and unsubscribed, checked and unchecked notifications and have just about done everything I can think of. Not a clue why and just wondering if you have any ideas? Thanks...

[@FaeryVixen]

The oddly shaped beads are shell, not mother of pearl :D

[@ANPC-pi9vu]

You know, that coral medallion would have looked so nice on that woven leather cord, but I know this video is old.

[@susanfontaine5214]

Gold filled has scrap value!

[@taroyuliapetrova]

Why would you tell everybody where you are buying stuff at? You are growing competitors. And after videos like yours every cheaper place like shopgoodwill gets not that cheap at all. Their lots are now super expensive from 45$ and up to 200$. People flooded the website. As well as bluebox from Goodwill. However, I understand that you are trying to help others but that's one of the main reasons why you don't have much sales going on. If 1000 people have watched your video means they will go ahead and do what you are doing. And buy where you are buying from. Not a hater and I like you and your chanel.

[@raindrop5273]

I see what you are saying but I like that info.

[@taroyuliapetrova]

@@raindrop5273 that's understandible

[@lesliejohnson7247]

I disagree. First off, people are lazy. If 1,000 watched the video, more than 800 wouldn’t even *think* of doing it. That just SOP averages. Secondly, of the 200 left, probably less than a dozen would actually consider doing it. It took 32 minutes to film this & we all know it’s edited down. If you’re going to be cut throat about it from a pure business standpoint, she’s not making much money compared to the time she has in it. And finally, one of the things that pretty cool about KZbin resellers is that they do share. When you’re freed up to share, you don’t spend any time at all protecting your business. Instead you’re positively opening yourself up to opportunities. For example, she may find a person that likes how she separates the lots & offer her more than lot price for her curated product. Or someone will contact her with their own lots because they’re looking for higher end deals. I’d bet that she rarely sees an increase in competition. And even if she does, that keeps her from buying too many. Lol

[@taroyuliapetrova]

​@@lesliejohnson7247 I will disagree with you as a seller as I'm not just a random viewer. I'm not talking about a 1000 people in general but about a 1000 resellers that are looking for new sources to shop at. Some things need to be kept in a secret for your own good. Business is not getting done like that trust me I know what I'm saying. KZbin resellers are cool when they are sharing tips and tricks about platforms and glitches but not the place to buy stuff for resale. "even if she sees an increase in competition it's good because it keeps her from buying more..." - yes it keeps her from buying more good stuff for cheaper price and making more money. But there's nothing to be so happy about
