Real Bargains Found Thrift Shopping | Makora Glass, Lalique, Gemstone Ring, Jewelry by Dr. Lori

[@ImallamaToo]

I bought a 17 pound jewelry lot on a Goodwill auction last week, and found a blue topaz ring in it. It paid for the whole lot! I guess they thought it was glass, but the Presidium Gem Tester is priceless for identifying stones. I love going through jewelry. I told my husband that I'm a part time pirate. 😂

[@DrLoriV]

I am so glad I recommended my Treasure Hunting Tools including the gemstone tester. Check out my favorite stuff on my website's specials and shop page.

[@momandwalter1378]

I’m so excited my rings were featured! I’m making a killing on the “trash can” jewelry. I’ll be setting up another video call soon. Thank you Dr. Lori!

[@rachelshaw2610]

Absolutely love this new format. You are so good at what you do!! Thanks so very much.

[@PHBRNTGGR2]

That sapphire ring was so beautiful…the sapphires! 😍🥰

[@shortmeister4321]

The whale bone carving is so interesting, I've never seen one. Thank you Dr. Lori!

[@DrLoriV]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@taniaizvet3892]

😮 I bought the same Makora glass bowl! I paid $10 and I absolutely love it it has no inclusions it’s in pristine condition when I tried researching it the only similar items I could find, we’re listing it as Murano and since I’m still saving up for my priority service; it’s still sitting there but I’m so happy I saw this! one item less to research! thank God and thank you Dr. Lori!

[@taniaizvet3892]

Not only were they listing it as Murano but they were listing it at $700

[@taniaizvet3892]

Obviously I did not have the fortune of having the original sticker on mine

[@DrLoriV]

Lots to learn here... are you using my Binge link? it's on my specials and shop page of my website drloriv

[@taniaizvet3892]

@@DrLoriV yes ! I have spent the better part of six months just studying all your videos

[@taniaizvet3892]

I’m sure a lot of people think this but I’m pretty sure you can get like a good three great bargain videos out of the inventory I’m about to launch. I just need your professional appraisal first , That’s happening very soon

[@FleaMarketJohn]

Never heard of lost in the mail items. Very interesting 👍👍

[@bongirud]

Wow! My Goodwill blue box only had only broken plastic Santa earrings and cloth cords… lots of low value necklaces which I gifted to my sister.. didn’t really make the price I paid back but she was happy!

[@DrLoriV]

Oh wow!

[@christhomas5761]

Oh wow, my goodwill blue box was horrible as well, dollar store junk jewelry and cloth cords.

[@deannecaliforniamusic]

Mine was also something like this. I actually deleted my several ranting posts about it because as I was grumpy bagging it up, something caught my eye. 👀 I’ll need to test this one. 😂

[@kirstenevavold169]

Your show keeps me staying with each item. Not waiting to see the next. Tells you that you keep me interested in each item. Great shows.

[@lolitabonita08]

i really enjoyed the video so much useful info and the history behind each finding is fascinating...

[@tomsdotter3228]

Wow. Amazing finds! Thank you for all the info and advice.

[@DrLoriV]

You are so welcome!

[@GeschichtenUndGedanken]

Hello everybody. Nice to see you, Dr Lori. 🌻

[@DrLoriV]

Hello there! Thanks for watching. Did you like this video?

[@GeschichtenUndGedanken]

The Lalique items are great, too.

[@Sweetpea1128]

Fabulous video! My daughter and family are vacationing in Virginia and she went to a Goodwill. She sent me pictures of things to ask what I thought. She had found a Lefton vase, and a couple of small items. She said, “ I wish I knew more about things like this.” I told her about your channel. I’m sending her this video. Thank you! 😃👍🏻❤️

[@DrLoriV]

That is awesome!

[@johannamarsh8464]

Dr Lori, What an amazing show!! You are a blessing to all of us! Thank You! 😇

[@DrLoriV]

You are so welcome

[@k.mihalic8945]

Beautiful color blue on you ms Lorie

[@peppiholliday4525]

Wow this one was very very good and extremely informative and important. I did not know anything about pallets of lost mail that you could purchase but now I'm going to go and see what I can find. Thank you Dr Lori, you're the greatest

[@DrLoriV]

Glad it was helpful!

[@pattyrainwater1778]

I am so addicted to your Videos and I love your humor…💁‍♀️❤️

[@DrLoriV]

Thanks. Keep watching.

[@janabuchheit3389]

Always learn so much. One day I'm going to have to schedule a video call or purchase a subscription to learn the values of all my bargains and items gifted to me to either list or open a booth at a flea market. I tend to purchase with the intent to sell and then add it to all my mass collections. I have more than I have room for, but I can't pass up a great bargain on beautiful things that are quality. The things I have the hardest time finding the values are cassettes, 8 tracks and vinyl... they aren't something I love so my knowledge is sparse. I was given a lot of these things by a couple of friends and since it's not my passion, I'm lost. Thank you so much for sharing and encouraging us to identify an array of such exquisite items. The eye doesn't lie. And... you look beautiful in the blue. You need the blue sapphire ring for your collection. Your passion for knowledge and teaching freely what you can to empower us is so unselfishly kind. I'm thankful your dad took you with him to catch the bug for thrifting and the hunt. I know you gained so much from him and I know he would be proud of your accomplishments. He helped raise an amazing daughter, I am sure you are thinking of him.on this Father's Day. God Bless!

[@DrLoriV]

My schedule books up fast... don't miss out. Classes are open too. Very cheap.

[@VintageSoul]

Awesome real bargains!

[@skinnyzebra8626]

I looove… real bargain videos! They are so encouraging

[@DrLoriV]

You can do it. I am showing you how.

[@debbiewedoe2564]

Love Love Love the video Amazing stories. 🍀

[@MrJumbatron]

I think the green sapphire ring is marked sterling! 😊

[@09morningglory]

Indeed, I also read Sterling on the ring.

[@patriciazoerner]

Gorgeous southwest style bracelets, by the way!

[@savagesquirrel9828]

Wow! I loved everything you showed😀 great video.

[@DrLoriV]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@leacipurr]

Someone out there is probably still looking for the bone they ordered. 😆 very cool. I would have been devastated if I ordered it and it got lost in the mail.

[@LizPerkinsHarbin]

...and that's why one always buys insurance!!!

[@LizPerkinsHarbin]

I do feel bad for the original buyer though!

[@vickiemouse236]

What a treasure trove!!!

[@Miriam-fk9wr]

I love the way Dr. Lori says 1,250 DOLLARS 😁✨✨✨

[@thomascabral8443]

thank you again for your neverending encouragement,,

[@DrLoriV]

You are so welcome. You can do this.

[@JARatigan]

Enjoy your videos, such great information. I do jewelry for a thrift store and not sure sometimes of the gemstones. Plastic vs real.

[@lindareed6262]

Hey Dr. Lori another great video!

[@ic1815]

The green sapphire solitaire ring - isn’t that marked “Sterling”?

[@DrLoriV]

Yes

[@Shock_Treatment]

I bet the person that was supposed to receive the whale vertebrae was livid when it got lost.

[@julieandre5785]

Love these videos

[@DrLoriV]

great. did you see them all? They are on my channel. Check it out.

[@jenwins777]

How can you purchase USPS pallets?

[@lianefehrle9921]

What happens if a person finds a native piece and the tribe sees it for sale? Can’t they take it from you if it is an old piece that was stolen or in his case bought from a lost and found place? I learn a lot from you.

[@DrLoriV]

Certain Native Items must be repatriated.

[@janadickey4378]

Glad I found you!

[@DrLoriV]

me too.

[@bongirud]

Wow! A barrel of jewelry for $700!!! 300lbs!!! Less than $2 a pound! Would beat any Goodwill blue box! That is $8+ per pound

[@momandwalter1378]

I couldn’t get it home and start sorting fast enough. It was the deal of a lifetime.

[@wolfysays6311]

I can't imagine a person having about double her body weight of jewelry! "Hmm, what should I wear today?" - Digging next half hour... 😅🤣

[@rjchavez5829]

wow so lovely gems

[@DrLoriV]
