MY VERY FIRST FIND! | 3 Carts in Goodwill Thrift | Flea Market with Flashlights in the Dark

[@AuntGrace]

people who question how much you charge for items should try following you guys around for a day. You definitely earn every dollar ❤

[@debsmith2269]

And I think there are a lot of people who don't realise that there are fees taken off every sale on eBay. Not to mention the cost of buying packing materials, shelving, racks, and/or bins for storage, camera equipment (for those resellers who do KZbin too), taxes etc, etc. The list of expenses is very long, plus you have to have enough money left over to live off of. It's also a very time-consuming job. Definitely not 9 to 5. People do this because they love it, but they need to earn good money from it too. Otherwise, what's the point.

[@Angel-vf1gf]

@@debsmith2269Absolutely… it’s crazy and I think why a lot of sellers don’t do “best offers.” Some people essentially want the items gifted to them 😂

[@sumthingelse6811]

@@debsmith2269 We need camera equipment even if not on you tube, background mannequin lights photo booth for small items, photo software etc. time to crop & adjust photos ;-)

[@bethb7965]

@@debsmith2269 Many don't realize all that goes in to reselling, as you pointed out...the time, the packing materials, platform fees, listing, shipping...

[@TravisInDallas]

It's just like any other business. Can you imagine if people knew how much Walmart pays for an item. They don't think about all the cost on top of that. I think when there were more independent farmers and small businesses more people understood this. Now everyone works for someone else and have no idea what goes into getting them their check.

[@janay9706]

I didn’t miss any videos either. I enjoy all the things, discriptions, shopping you do. “Do we love watching a Lavender Clothsline video? Yes we do!” ❤

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Congratulations on your first Van Briggle & the Roseville & other pieces, too! WOW! That was so exciting! 15:07- I think you can get more for the cranberry glass pitcher. Cranberry glass is usually more valuable because the cranberry color is made by adding gold. It’s usually made in smaller batches because of this very reason. My former husband is a stained glass artist & has taught me a lot about glass over the years. I am fortunate to have some beautiful stained glass pieces in my home! 😊

[@Meekavintage]

oh interesting. Thanks for sharing girlie

[@carolineletellierdest-just8623]

That basket guy from the flea market was something else, made me laugh when you said you undersold your baskets😂🤨 Too weird for me at 5 AM…

[@ebayshopgirl]

Maybe people who commented about your videos last week meant that they were glad to see you back from vacation and back to regular thrifting.

[@debbiekennedy6030]

Maybe they just had the impression that she didn't do as many videos since she was on vacation. Our perception can change our reality.

[@PatriciaKromrei]

I think that's what they were talking about.

[@PatriciaKromrei]

This is where you should've worn your chess mount so you don't lift vases by the handles. Just a thought

[@onemanstrash8233]

12:14 thank you for bringing the van Briggle to our attention. I’ve never heard of it so I looked it up and verified what sales well on eBay will be keeping an eye out for that here in North Carolina thanks again.

Can’t even explain how much I love your videos Karen ❤

@crazymemaw3484 I noticed that too. So funny.

The egg piece.. that is used for when you pull eggs to use (cook) that this is like a spoon rest but for eggs to dispose the shell or for the egg to sit in until cooked. I have several.. they do come in handy especially around the holidays.

Myrtle wood comes from Oregon. There is a reseller who loves this wood, she lives in Oregon. Her channel is Laura Caldwell and has lots of tidbits.

The Kong is a slow feeder - not missing anything! Put your pup’s food in the Kong, set it on the ground and he/she bats and rolls it to make the food come out the hole! Fun game to keep pup busy and stimulated.

You also can put peanut butter in them to occupy your dog for a while.

[@cletasteidle2389]

I was told by a GW worker that each store gets credit for how many items they sell and that’s why they started pricing everything separately 🤷‍♀️

Laura Caldwell is in thePacific NW, where Myrtlewood comes from. She picks up a lot of pieces. I've found a couple pieces here in NC over the past year. Beautiful wood.

[@ginamathis1]

Oh my goodness-a Van Briggle at Goodwill! I have been collecting VB for years and actually have this style in two glazes. A short story-I found one in the color you found and had it a few years. My Mom was going through my Grandmother’s things in our attic and found another one in another glaze-it sent chills down the both of us-we felt my grandma’s smile upon us ❤

I agree they should try to sell a set of dishes in a bundle first, then break it up if not sell in a couple weeks. I see a couple listings for this disney set. one plate for sale $20 + ship, 4 plate set $48 + ship. Only 1 sold slightly different in blue white $48 for one plate.

Van Briggle was made in Colorado Springs. I was there & got a tour of the studio about 10 years ago. It is now closed.

[@thrifta-haulic125]

Hi Karen! Glad you liked Jake’s…that is a pretty good one and can be a bit overwhelming! The 25 cent sale I go to is right down the road from there. Literally about one mile south! I think the beautiful basket was a gathering basket for herbs or a market basket. Definitely would have been a stretch getting more than $170 for that on eBay I think. But as a long tail seller you may have been able to set your price at $250 and wait. That guy with the $500 painting was CRAZY! Renningers regular sellers have gotten a bit too big for their britches!

[@cathylouer3548]

Have you ever been to Leighty's Outdoor Flea Market? It is very nice and reasonably priced items to be found.
