Dang it! I was on my way to that same estate sale Friday to look for some vintage art supplies for my daughter but I got sidetracked at Southport Antique Mall (I am a new booth owner there thanks to your inspiration and education). Would have loved to run into you at the sale, I probably would have fainted lol. You are correct, Flipside is awesome, I go to their sales often.

3:05 oh my gawd. I was born in ‘89 and I was so not prepared for childhood flashbacks all bc of *that* step stool. Did I have them at home and at school? Maybe it was in each classroom? Idk, but I definitely remember them even the weight. Sitting and using your legs to release childhood energy and also stubbing your tiny toes with that heavy base😂. At least I did hehe 🤷🏻♀️

@lauracowman6335 we are currently setting a sale in the home of a man who recently passed away. He had the home built in 1987 for $147k, .65 acres with a pool. It goes on the market next week, probably around 850k, and it is all original. We have set at least 4 8' tables with double rows of over 1000 records. There are a good 10,000 aviation magazines, dozens of model car kits, still new in the box, and the list goes on. It should be a $45k sale, if the MCM furniture sells. Oh, and the sound system was purchased 2 years ago for $12,000. The man kept every box for every single piece of electronics, has the certificates of authenticity for dozens of professionally framed prints, paintings, and autographed aviation posters. It's a crazy good sale.

Good evening, George! I sent you an email when the shaker set was delivered...don't know if you saw it or not. It is fantastic, and I'm more than pleased with it! We have one of the old water bottles here chocked full of pennies. I could really use one of those rolling stepstools. I actually have some men's fashion patterns from the 1970s...with bellbottom pants in them. That Sheraton Revival corner shelf would definitely come in handy here. I liked that mod art painting. It reminded me of Jackson Pollock, and I love Pollock's work. I have an oak wash stand that has two top levels. The lower level has the door in that compartment for the chamber pot. It has a towel bar over the larger section, and a two-rung bar section for washcloths over the lower section. I could use those big iron wagon wheels. The tri-fold mirror looked like it had Prince of Wales feathers as the design on the glass. I have my great-grandfather's shoe lasts, stand and cobbler's hammer. Loved the cast iron kettle. I'm really proud of the one I got from you! That small chest of drawers was fantastic! It would've been really tempting for me to buy it. There were tons of interesting items at the estate sale and the antiques mall! Thanks for the take-along!
@TheAntiqueNomad10 ай бұрын
I'm relieved it finally arrived! I always have prized that set in my collection too. The bottles always sell as penny receptacles, I had to empty one in an estate situation and it was...heavy. Bellbottoms, I wore them but only off the rack! Love corner shelves and Sheraton is always pleasant and straightforward without over ornamenation to mee. The MCM painting did have a Pollock-esque aspect! Wagon wheels attract me but they have to be cheap because they're too large for me to keep long...it's different when you have a nice big place for them! Correct about that feather etch, I regret a bit that I didn't offer her $100, I know that would sell in Florida but also...heavy! The theme for the evening. Thank you for having fun with me this evening!

I almost flipped when I saw the display of Pfaltzgraff Yorktown @ 46:51 because it had the original pedestal coffee cups I had as a newlywed in the ‘70s. (On the bottom shelf.) Being married to a military man, we moved often and the cups eventually broke. I could never find cups like that ever again. And could never find replacements online, so I just got rid of the set. I honestly would have driven out there for those cups if I still had the same dish set!😂

Was stealing ashtrays a thing? Yes indeed. In fact, before we’d leave a restaurant I had to frisk my mother, and this included Room Service items (ie: adorable little teapots). Not only ashtrays, but creamers, salt and peppers, and dishes that held powdered creamers. It was all fair game. It wasn’t just my mom, but most of the little old ladies I knew. Interestingly, this did not happen with the little old men.

If I don’t get to watch again before Christmas I hope you and Zino have a Merry one. ❤ oh I used to find good shops down around Somerset haven’t been in years. The lake homes would get all the old stuff and now they’re clearing them out to make way for progress and new owners.

You & that vender mentioned were talking about buying abandoned storage units. Another thing to look for is locations that do Not allow corrosive chemicals to be stored there, such a Pool Supplies. Alot of those chemicals cause severe rust & staining to your stored goods. Note, most locations Claim to not allow these things. But seldom really watch for them. But the climate controlled ones are better about it.

I wonder how much you need to have to start out and buy storage lockers? I want so badly to be able to sell antiques. I have so many different figureines and I know my duaghter doesn't want to deal with it some day, so I'd love to have some sort of a sale. I'm attached to all of it because of a childhood episode in m life where everyone took my stuff without asking so I don't let it out now and I know it's old. I'm out of room so I don't buy anything unless it's a cat figurine or an old good movie on dvd.
