[@nathanhenson9747]

100,000 Million %. There's a weird dichotomy that goes on in upper class garage sales/neighborhoods. There's also a dichotomy between older/newer homes. When it's younger couple in a new home it's mostly kids stuff, and alot of time for me anyways it's expensive. I think they remember like "Oh I paid 100$ for this item 3 years ago, I'm going to ask 60$". It's America and they're free to do so, it's just as a reseller it's hell. I went to a 40 home neighborhood sale 3 weeks ago and literally 30+ homes were 75% kids stuff. Most of which was way overpriced. I'm free on Thursday/Friday so I'm almost always the first one there too.

Lee.com is the website for Lee Jeans. Found this under history. First introduced Buddy Lee doll in 1921. Might be worth a grand if it's an original. The Buddy Lee doll was introduced to promote Lee overalls. Over the next 40 years, he helped to introduce new products offered by Lee. Becoming a promotional success at county fairs and in store windows, Buddy Lee dolls were first made of composition and later of molded plastic. When it became cost-prohibitive to manufacturer the doll, Buddy Lee was discontinued in 1960. Buddy Lee returned in 1998 to promote the company’s Can’t Bust ‘Em Dungarees line, aimed at 17- to 22-year-old males. Buddy Lee, "Man of Action" appeared in ads as a heroic figure who survived all kinds of certain doom, prompting his human co-stars to marvel at the durability of his jeans. Lee offically retired Buddy Lee in 2006.

Buddy Lee was an advertising mascot for Lee Jeans. The doll, a promotional item for the company from 1920 to 1962, was brought back as the star of television advertising for the company's Lee Dungarees line from 1998 until the mid-2000s. These little guys were made for the H. D. Lee Company Inc., the makers of Lee jeans, and they are marked "Buddy Lee" on the back of each doll. Original clothing will also have a Buddy Lee tag on it. While the attribution is not positive, some doll collectors believe that these were made by the Gem Toy Company. Gem Toy made a line of dolls called Chubby Kid that looks just like the Buddy Lee dolls. The only difference is they don't have a Buddy Lee mark or the Lee branded clothing, so there is a definite basis for the attribution.

4:17 JACKPOT! Most cassettes go for a few dollars on ebay at most. But not rap cassettes. Rap was huge in the 90s, so were CD players. Growing up in the 90s, I don't know anyone that bought or collected cassettes. Everyone was into CDs. If your car had a tape deck you'd buy an adapter to hook up a portable CD player. So all these rap albums that came out in the 90s are worth a little bit of money on cassette.

My best flip of the year so far was a Buddy Lee doll, bought for $75 and sold it within a day for $2400. The doll is from the 1920's-1960's, and what makes it more or less expensive is the age, condition, and outfit it is wearing. Most buddy lee's are wearing jeans/coveralls and are from around 1940-1950 and worth around $300-400. If you find a doll that is wearing "union-alls" and older from the 1920-1930's, buy it.

That Lee Jeans doll was pretty sweet that my kind of item but she was pretty high on the price. If she would have said $100-200 i would have grabbed it if it was in good shape. Some of them can sell for pretty good money and if you find one with the original box and all it can bring really good money. It's one of those items i think will really go up in value if Lee jeans somehow made a huge come back and became as popular as Levis. And that clock would have been a good buy if she had it priced right. The Lee Work Clothes clock is from the 1950s and its worth some decent money so i would have probably made her an offer.
