Goodwill MISSED this one!

[@seaside2001]

I have a theory why artwork is doing so well. People are taking down all those stupid signs with words that shout at us about how we should feel, and do in life. Too stressful to look at those everyday when you wake up.. lol We all much prefer bucolic countryside scenes. Less stressful and judgemental. 🤣👋🇨🇦

[@debbiestyer453]

Yes word art is annoying

[@seaside2001]

@@debbiestyer453 I have a friend named Art short for Artibano, Italian and I really like the word Art. 👋

[@kerriwegner1632]

Amen

[@valeriejewell2015]

Love your videos, but, if it's not a POT, it is NOT POTTERY.....it may be ceramic, ironstone, redware, porcelain, etc.....Vases are made of GLASS......never put water, or flowers, in POTS.......they stand as ART........Artist, Interior Designer, Collector of Pottery, here......

[@KellyB3]

Agree 😂

[@lyndaborhauer52]

I was shocked I heard you say Kennywood WOW I’m 78 when I was little my Scottish family had their picnics there and as little girl I danced the sword dance in my kilt. Wow thank you for that memory. Love your show.

[@mariaroldan4200]

I danced those in Argentina!

[@lyndaborhauer52]

@ remember the days.

[@janetrogers8457]

That creamer and sugar that you passed on for $17 is a early RS Prussia, Mold #704, ca 1910, value around $100-150.

[@tinaranson6172]

Holy moly!

[@JudyCoggins]

Thanks! It’s what I came to say❤ a real missed opportunity.

[@gaylemorganson2697]

Perfect!! Thank you!!!

[@mariarajewski6623]

Karen love the pot. It looks wood fired to me. The white stripes on the bottom are from stilts in the kiln. Lots of time went into that gorgeous piece.

[@michellebowman5495]

I would use that 3 tiered stand for afternoon tea!

[@MissTree22]

God truly blessed you with a nice hubby!!! Merry Christmas to all of you! ( Mellissa and Lisa)

[@LindaTulley-w7y]

Fabulous find on the large pottery piece !!! I really enjoy watching u & Rodger thrifting!!!

[@LindaKayHolevas]

8:56 You can buy those cat bottles with wine in them at World Market brand new for around $12-$15. This Goodwill’s pricing really was all over the place. I love the large pottery pot though & $10 was a great price for it! 😊Edit- love the rake pot, too!! It’s beautiful!😍

[@pearlneidlinger391]

I thought Raku was placed right onto hot ashes of a fire built up over hours. I could be wrong but thats how I once saw it made

[@katherinefuechsel8747]

That triple tray would be great for cookies, cupcakes or tea sandwiches!

[@debbiesclunsen9744]

Thanks for your opinion, knowledge and not continuously bashing stores It's appreciated! Love your show always ! ❤

[@dianewilliams2789]

Our goodwill in my area in Indiana have lowered prices. They got quite high. They are actually advertising their lowered prices.

[@donnae2445]

I miss watching you in the morning with my coffee, I always fall asleep watching you in the afternoon 😅

[@joellenmeek658]

Roger will do great with the Steel Curtin sign from Kennywood.

[@PatriciaKromrei]

You cracked me up "she got demoted"

[@NanaColeen]

The three tray item might be something to show case items on🤩👏Maybe? Thank you Karen for taking me/us along.

[@EFCasual]

Raku is often done with fallen leaves.

[@TJScruffi]

That is a beautiful large piece of pottery for only $10. Great find.

[@spiritedsoulcollection]

Loved the large pottery piece. Greetings from Cape Town South Africa🇿🇦🎅.

[@thomascabral8443]

when I did Raku in college we used a trash can put the pottery from the kiln hot with tongs into the trashcan put in newspapers which in turn burned to create the colors the less glaze or naked clay surface the more color u see,,,

[@michellefurler3048]

Karen ,Rodger family and viewers,wishing you a Merry Christmas ❤from Australia

[@ThatFoutyKid]

I’ve learned so much from Roger about things I would have never known.

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Me, too! Karen & Roger are definitely a power couple in every good way!

[@LesleyBumgarner]

I believe the stoneware plates with the ombré like brown lines is the Horizon pattern

[@MsJet1]

Love the pottery!

[@lauradotson355]

Blenko?? 😀

[@kerriwegner1632]

If you see any Peterboro baskets grab them girl 😂 🙏 great pottery find! 😮

[@tamabogert9494]

Look at Roger grabbing his own cart right away.

[@janemarsh4134]

Always amazed at the sells you receive. Great learning experience! Ty ty

[@saradean5523]

Karen - you might try the monovision contacts or bifocal - I have worn them for years and don't have to wear readers! One contact is for distance and the other is for closeup!

[@gracierose3076]

The cranberry glass is Fenton, 25 dollars without the stopper!

[@joyceheld4354]

I would definitely use that 3 tier shelf for cupcakes or bars and cookies ! Weddings..showers..parties 🎉

[@debracurry1423]

That pottery piece is beautiful. Merry Christmas. ❤

[@terryshaw3493]

You both always have fun with your thrifting! You give us all such good info.

[@randireisinger8074]

Had to laugh when you saw some of the prices. Welcome to the real world of Goodwill. You are so lucky at the prices you find at your local Goodwill. The rest of us just put up with Goodwill and their pricing.

[@mariabryant6582]

Raku pottery usually has a matte black bottom.

[@heatherkoch1644]

Not just roller coaster enthusiasts would buy that sign. I would buy that to decorate my sons' room, man caves, and there are a lot of sign collectors!

[@ricochetkitty7215]

KAREN! Love’s Baby Soft and Chantilly Lace (remember that one?) were my first perfumes! 😂 Cheers, Katia

[@maryyoder7789]

I have worn Love's Baby Soft since the 70's😅

[@Victoria-f9e]

Karen, Karen you make my day! I love your banter and you and Rodger are so cute together!

[@joyceheld4354]

Such beautiful plates and a platter with flowers. You had them in your hand and laid them back down. I felt tears coming to my eyes. 😉🤣 But really I would of scooped them up.

[@vlrissolo]

YES ROGER! When I was a teenager my brother was about 5 years younger than me he was a roller coaster fanatic! I had never heard or seen of anything like it. He used to build them out of little toothpicks in such but he had never even been on one! I thought it was the strangest thing and it went on for years. Rip my sweet brother❤

[@debbied3116]

Enjoyed shopping with you today. Thanks for sharing!

[@minie4887]

3 tier tray would make a cute plant stand and that pot is huge

[@JamieTressler-mc3it]

In the first isle and beside the fairy you picked up there were large scrabble tiles with the letter L and O. I think it spelled LOVE and I thought of Roger’s proposal. 🥰

[@BrianWaraksa]

Love your videos Karen and Rodger.

[@glendasully]

It was worth the wait til the end. I love seeing your high priced solds. So happy for you 💘

[@janiceharrell8730]

The sugar bowl and creamer at the beginning of the video may have been R.S. Prussia, which may be why the store priced them higher.

[@AnneSmith-mu2ph]

Morning Karen a Roger !im coming with you both lv Ann❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@mariemathews7794]

I like the high profit ending

[@margaretchiotti]

I'm thoroughly convinced that if a certain pricer loves the item, they price it up.

[@gaylebruen5428]

I wear contacts. My eye dr prescribed one eye for distance and one eye, less dominant eye, for reading. Your brain reads with the correct one and distance with the other. I don’t need readers this way and I see very clearly. I believe that’s called monovision. I love it!!

[@lavenderclothesline]

Not a fan lol I felt “off” for days 🤣

[@gaylebruen5428]

@ true, my dr said it doesn’t work for some people. For me I was fine from the minute I tried it. Wish it worked for you, so much easier than using readers.

[@Janpre2001]

Fenton glass usually has a Fenton signature mark on the bottom.

[@donnae2445]

Pricing may vary because of different people but also there may be a rule in the back about large items not being attractive to resellers. You are unique in that you have a booth. Love the Raku. the back room processers aren’t sophisticated enough to know what real quality or art is. What I f don’t understand is the sticker placement at all thrift stores customers are always pealing them what is so hard about putting them off the mark?!

[@silverstatepicks]

Merry Christmas to you and Roger, great video Karen!

[@christinecasarez1482]

The pot is not raku, but is a wood fired pot. The gray and dripping effect is created by ash collection on the pot during firing. Great example of the beauty of wood fired pottery.

[@carols1030]

Ilove the pickand ship videos too

[@joycehalstead]

I love your video ❤❤❤

[@th5579]

I thought there was something wrong with the picture with that big red truck behind u in the car!😊

[@joyceheld4354]

Oh no ! Don't put the chicken basket down ! Perfect decor for your booth. 🐔🐓

[@marshahodgkins9215]

Lamoine is how they spell that same name in Maine. Husband’s grandparents lived in Lamoine, Maine..

[@ale7564]

Kennywooood’s open! (For the Pittsburghers).

[@SandiVerbin]

😂 aka your fly is down! IYKYK

[@carols1030]

You have raku defn correct, but largepotisglazed, not raku.

[@SUZANNECARPENTER-ou3je]

I would take the boots to a shoe repair. Those are so nice. It probably would be just an inexpensive repair.

[@neoanderson726]

oh yeah I go into way too many stores where the music is way too large makes me want to leave sooner ... you want music to be in the background barely audible to make a more pleasurable shopping experience and you want to shop longer ... loud music just chases people out of teh store

[@Margot-k2j]

The brown stripe plates, and they are pottery, are McCoy from the 1950’s! McCoy is not always marked,

[@johnandersen8998]

Looked like a pink or red glass rolling pin in that pink glass section.

[@cornfieldcloset]

Hey sweetie, I work at Goodwill and there are multiple people pricing the donations, that's a lot of the reason why things aren't consistent in price. ❤

[@lavenderclothesline]

Of course! But the inconsistency could easily be corrected with a little training in my opinion 😊

[@cornfieldcloset]

@@lavenderclothesline that is true. 😊

[@podrosie5059]

Goodwill has some prices compared to antique stores. That's about what an antique store might price a creamer sugar set for. Especially since it wasn't a desired name.

[@jackiegodbout3606]

Hi Karen! I love to watch you thrift! You are educating me. I love to thrift also, but as you said , the prices are ridiculously high! I live in California and everything is soooo expensive now including donated goods! I also feel like it’s hard to find vintage, nice items. Have a blessed holiday!🎄

[@HappyGoLuckyMama]

Goodwill prices have gotten out of hand. I've seen them price things at full retail! I don't shop there as much as I used to and when I do it's only for things I need. Even then I make sure I'm not being ripped off.

[@sherrymcsherry2984]

The pottery pieces were beautifully and an awesome find. I’m really shocked at some of the GW prices. I’m not familiar with the Lemoyne store, never been to that one. It’s within my area. Merry Christmas Karen and Roger.

[@HRHQueenAngelita]

Princess Karen I love your funny chatter.....tell Roger I am very tempted to buy that Mercedes as it is the only Mercedes I can afford and I can tell everyone I have one. At least the finds you got there were very good. xoxox Merry Christmas to the cute happy couple and your lovely girls.

[@vansmom123]

I think some goodwills have mood pricers. They price whatever they feel like on the day. 🤷‍♀️

[@cindyvilla]

I always pick up nut bowls! Sold 3 this fall already! Great nostalgic find!! And that chicken basket Mackenzie-like! People want similar items to add to their 🧡Mackenzie Collections. And only 3.99!! It most certainly would have been in my cart fast!

[@denisegriffiths5910]

Pink dimple decanter is blenko

[@lauriesheppard3394]

Your motto should be: “If in doubt, don’t”. It seems whenever you doubt an item you don’t get it!

[@deborahklaus9013]

You missed the wood mortar and postal.

[@susankahn7219]

Pretty lustreware pitcher at 21:04

[@lindacrowe8428]

The people in the back pick the prices. That is why some are so cheap while others are high.

[@anitamilller3199]

Look at all the resellers going in.

[@jonimosteller8946]

I would love to know what the pottery gose for ..sooo pretty❣️❣️❣️

[@KLeonardM]

great video. Karen you and Roger are such a great source of information. I just love you both to pieces...

[@sharonpiper794]

Ok i have contacts to look up close and wear glasses to see far away...i have done this for over 15 years

[@userrobinmp]

Thats my mom's maiden name but spelled Le Moine or Le Moyne, its French😊 Jeff Margolin? He is a large pottery raku artist in Wisconsin, Ya think that vase traveled that far? lol

Someone spelled out enema with the blocks…😂😂

[@barbara_m_h7963]

Do you thrift everyday? Love your videos; been watching for years.

[@lavenderclothesline]

Probably 3 days a week 😁

[@Bearhug2023]

So that sounds like don't bother with transitional contacts LOL

[@carolineletellierdest-just8623]

Hey Karen, does the name Raku defines the method of firing the pottery? So different artists used that method? Looks amazing ❤

[@thomascabral8443]

different people pricing as things come in, sometimes I feel pricers have a person a preference against unique items,,,

[@Not-thatKaren]

Evidently that Goodwill isn’t fond of pottery. You might have found a place to find good deals on pottery!

[@LindaTulley-w7y]

Your pink glass piece might be blenko ??? Just a guess.

[@CandaceDay-f5g]

Most raku has a black bottom

[@ale7564]

There’s a car in your car!!

[@Cynthia-f7e]

I’m looking at your shipping prices, like the hedgehog for example .,I can never ship similar items as that without it being more expensive. Have you shown how you box them up? Thanks! (Love your channel. My Hubby is from Pittsburgh area so if we come visit from Missouri will thrift over your way! )

[@lisaruth9393]

Jeff Kell is a ceramic artist. Is that his name?

[@anitamilller3199]
