@Rosetta Maranos For the most part it appears that if it doesn’t interest him he moves it on. Just my opinion. And things that still have use do end up in the trash, despite claims of “saving as much as we can from the landfill”. Five gallon pails?

And he does it without being “money grabbing” Alex has made his money back already so is more than happy to do things like give stuff away for free or increase what he sells to someone for the same amount of money. Very refreshing to see especially when dealing with rare items.

[@jennifertomes8892]

Disappointed the Weavers didn’t clear the debris . Would have shown appreciation for the generous donation.

[@susiejakes3019]

Especially since someone stated that they sold a relative's weaving equipment for $4,000. The weaving guild personnel who picked up the equipment should have cleaned up after themselves. Some people just are not grateful. Alex could have made a lot of money selling that equipment and the wool/yarn. Next time he should insist on having a certain amount of whatever they want to donate, or pay less money to them. In this case, he was lucky the car was included in his deal with them.

[@saltandpepper986]

@Susie Jakes It was the wishes of the deceased/family to donate to the guild, not Alex’s decision. He was responsible for arranging it. His purchase of the rest of the estate/property includes clean-up. That’s his part. He knows that going in. I understand that room looks untidy now, but they didn’t exactly find it in immaculate state, and he has to pull it out/dig through it all in order to determine it’s fate regardless, really. Suppose they did make a motion to clean up more, suppose Alex told them don’t bother? Maybe they did, maybe they didn’t, but at the end of the day, we don’t know. We aren’t there. Alex handles himself and well in his interactions, I trust he did so here as well.

[@jennifertomes8892]

@@saltandpepper986 hi, read your comments. I didn’t understand from the videos that the owners had donated the weaving gear. Alex commented that he would, see some return on the looms etc. Later he suggested the local weaving club would benefit from the stock and they could take it. He seems like a very generous young man. Maybe the weavers felt it was within their rights to leave it as it was. I don’t think it’s always best to act on your rights. I have a large extended family we regularly rent holiday homes to be together. When we leave we have paid and it’s our right to expect the owners to clean and clear up after us. The last day of our holiday everyone pulls together and nine times out of ten we leave the accommodation cleaner than we find it. I think this shows respect for the proprietors and their property. This is always very well received and it makes us feel good. It’s a matter of just going that extra mile.

[@saltandpepper986]

The thing that you found in the basement and thought was a kettle or paint sprayer is an old vaporizer for when you were sick.

I had one when I was a kid in my room all the time

[@mdeysenroth]

The DeVilbis glass jug is a vaporizer. We had one when I was a child in the 60's. When we kids were sick, mom filled it with water and it produced steam. Ours had a compartment on top for Vicks Vaporub. It would melt from the heat of the steam and "medicate" the air.

Hey Alex there was something special about those " Polaroid Radios " Those old Polaroid 600 Cameras used a film pak that had it's own specific flat battery inside it. The camera itself had no battery. The Polaroid company came out with a great idea and made a small radio that looked like a pack of Polaroid 600 film and it would use the expended film packs as a battery to work it. They are very collectible I believe.
