I wonder if they thought there was not a lot of real value until they started seeing the special items you and Tony were finding. Letting you do the dirty work, so to speak. It's unfortunate and I get that they are dealing with the loss of a loved one's items but don't store them in a barn that is accessible to critters. It's a bit odd to suddenly want a photo album that was literally laying on the floor of a barn with the dirt and years of who knows what.

Well that stinks! I had something happened to me at a church rummage sale. I found a painting that I wanted to purchase and when I was purchasing it, I asked my friend to read the name on the paining. She read the name on the paining out loud to me and one of the people working the church rummage sale said oh that’s not for sale. I said what do you mean I’m paying for it it’s been here for two days. She said that was a mistake. It should’ve been in the sale. I took it up with the pastor and the pastor said oh it’s not for sale. I found out later that the artist is a well-known artist. Never thought I would experience anything shady at a church rummage sale. 😮

As I have learned over the years, the best course of action when discovering diamonds amongst the rough is to keep quiet, act nonchalant and make as little fuss as possible, play it cool. If the seller wants to get the best price possible for an item, then it is up to them to earn that value by putting the work in and doing some research before it hits the counter. Knowledge is everything when it comes to buying and selling. I’m not totally mercenary, there have been numerous times when I’ve mentioned to a seller that an item is way underpriced because of X,Y and Z reasons and they should look into it themselves. Entirely up to them if they wish to take that on board, they may have other reasons to want it sold cheap, who can say? It depends on how well you know the seller and who gains the most from the sale. In the case of the painting you found at the sale, did the church hang on to it because it is a valued and much loved artwork that due to some terrible misunderstanding ended up in the sale by accident… or did it sell to a higher bidder? Cynical, me?

Seems that this property has seen much better days. Storing books and artwork in the wild: no way ! 🤨 I had lots of negotiations with similar folks like those, and the final result was always the same: I quit and said: nope, thank you, I am done, you can keep everything , you won´t get a single buck from me. If some weirdos don´t have manners, don´t support them, so they have to learn the hard way how to behave properly. Just my two cents. The Wizard of Oz books would have been great, but not in that moldy condition. And: don´t care for this dirty photo album, you will get a much better one from Europe soon with tons of background history. 😉 Nonetheless, you made some interesting experiences and purchases, and that´s what counts. BTW: my absolute star of this show were your facial expressions reflecting your emotions on this incredible story. Priceless, I love it ! 👌Greets from GER, U.

I couldn't help it! My face was probably giving the same looks at the place because while we know this scenario happens, it was almost comical. My memory isn't what it used to be but remove a few books on me and I'll remember they aren't there! Well, it just adds to our stories and do we have plenty of them! I didn't want to jeopardize Tony & our other friend not getting their items, or the items we picked together to resell, so I figured that I'd probably be able to come across those books again at the flea market and just leave it be. Now if it was a Gutenberg that grew legs and walked away from my pile! I'll be stopping at the post office at the end of the week, so we shall see if any surprises await!

Sorry for the unfortunate experience. Sounds like the people wanted a "sorting company" rather than a pick or cleanout. Clearly they had no respect for you, Tony and your crew - and what you do - as evidenced by the language and reclaiming stuff after negotiating. Tony has the patience of Job, talking the people down from being all wound up. Focusing on positive, I did enjoy hearing Tony sing, "Betty Davis Eyes." Also think that Preppie Handbook will be worth hundreds soon - I think Member's Only jackets and 3 golf shirts which upturned collars are coming back :). I guess they took those two small Bibles, too? Really liked those. BTW my iPod Nano v4 died a few months ago and now I don't have anything to play music on. My phone won't hold the whole library and is too clunky anyway. Guess I will have to get over that. The renovated Mickey marionette will mark this as a good day - some day in the future.

I am onlyna grubt eorker, but I am always telling my boss to video each room as we set so she can see what may have been taken by the homeowner. Sadly, if the sale doesn't make the profits, they will tend to scream "lawsuit". It really is ridiculous that the homeowner (estate holder) seems to think that they own the stuff regardless, but once that contract is signed, they only own 50%.

The value of the items that were removed while important doesn’t really change the fact that they removed items after selling them.

In the garage was a dusty display piece made out of plastic (broken and cracked) with ten pieces of Blue Mountain Pottery figurines. Not extremely valuable but I collect them. The price after discount was $10. I told my husband, oh look BMP, I’m going to get this. The clerk in garage overheard me, watched me put it on hold table as we shopped on. Meanwhile he and his wife looked up the value of the pieces and said they cannot sell it for $10, they would need $40. I said that I would contact the owner of the estate company and let them know how you are conducting business. They were the owners! OMG I will never shop with them again.

I had something similar to your story happen at an estate sale a few years ago. Spent at least 2 hours digging around a dirty, dusty attic that had things just strewn everywhere - closets filled, furniture falling apart, trunks jam-packed with garbage and some nice things. I found an antique painting with some damage, but it had a nice look to it. Not a professional artist, but still would look good framed. When I went to check out with my other items that I found in the attic, I was asked where I found the painting. I said under a pile of stuff in the corner of the attic. "Oh we can't sell this to you. We'd have to charge a lot of money because this shouldn't have been in the attic. We have to do some research." I asked if they wanted me to put it back where I found it, but of course no... they went & put it in their "high end" section.

They made a deal with some people who wanted to buy it for the land to build their house on. Sunday was the last day they were supposed to get anything out. Instead of being worried about important things this whole time my mom had been too busy cleaning out a closet with old sheets and towels. So she called me yesterday morning all upset that she they lost so much stuff in the house one being her wedding pictures. If they are that important to you that's one of the first things that gets taken out. Luckily they were able to get in yesterday afternoon to get more which I hope she grabbed her pictures if not I don't want to hear about them again.

Aww Renee, you're such a sweet soul. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Dishonesty & deceptive behavior is difficult to deal with, but at least you could walk away. Rise above it all & keep doing what you love. Good things will always come your way 💖

That's ridiculous that you had to go through that, I feel for you. If anyone says anything about the family, take a hike, they had years to go through stuff and didn't then obviously it really didn't mean anything to them.

The fact that you BOUGHT them and they took them(stole actually) is ridiculous. You have EVERY right to be fired up!

I would have had to have prices on stuff ! you are doing all the work picking things of value and they can say No
@laurabrown59834 ай бұрын
been there too...made a pile and then oh this isnt for sale or we are keeping that etc...again like you said-remove what you want first before any buyers of any type come in

Love your videos and them taking stuff out and not saying anything is pretty underhanded they 100% thought you wouldnt notice I wouldn't even go back if it was me.

Double darn! I feel your frustration and I’m so sorry that happened to you… but somehow I’m not surprised! 🤨I know and appreciate that fact you would take the best of care of the photo album and small books and treat them as the treasures they are!
@holleyvanoski15374 ай бұрын
Yep! Let them have the mice infested books. Way more stuff out there. Good finds!!

Yeah, after about 5 minutes of that take-back, I would just say "good luck to you...buh-bye". Your time is money, too. Quote them a price for your time, and make sure it's a LOT of money...their tune will change, and quickly! Just say "NO", and move on...! Best of luck to you, Renee! I love watching you!

Well, we learn from each pick something new. Maybe next time ask to deal with only one person from the family.

You werent rude at all. Its all a lesson learned.

People are strange. They should have gone through the items before asking anyone out. You are in the right. As of late, I’ve noticed there’s a lot of hate going out to resellers. I’m a reseller and the hate is getting old.

I think you and Tony were treated very unfairly. Grrrr....
@marybaranowski41754 ай бұрын
You are not rude, they were. Thats dirty business. Wouldn’t trust them at all. Sad. I get the photo album but they should have taken with them at that time. Hope the next time goes a lot better. 👍

The minute we like an item, they assume it's valuable, as we are dealers they hate the idea of us making profit, I pick farms all the time and find treasures they never knew they had,then they say " I want to keep that " I say, " you didn't know you had it " nope, they keep it, despite the time I spent rooting through crap to find it, It happens very often, rather annoying to say the least, your'e a hero for remaining polite,

Woahh, the Nightmare Pick in the Outhouses of Hell. Purloined books, pickpocketed photo albums, effing and blinding galore; “ The grandkids need to see them and you can have them later…” what ????? Mental. Glad you retained the vintage Mickey though. Surprised they didn't reclaim that, looked desirable. Frustrating and maddening all in all though. Calm Renee, calm…. Laaa, De De, da daaaaa😠

Hmmm. Did you get your money back???
@belindasmith97394 ай бұрын
Oh Renee, that is soooo annoying. Especially after you paid for it. I love books, old books and it would really upset me to find a treasure - to me - and then have someone decide they wanted it. Glad you got a few bits. The family sound like hard work.

Puh… some other buyers would have straight called the cops on this one…

That’s funny what do you think the cops would do?
@barbarascott37264 ай бұрын
I agree with other posts. They are making you do the work to find the great valuable items to just take them from you. BEWARE!
