I feel like any rummage sale I've ever been to has been crowded like this one is. I have to be in the right mood to be willing to fight my way through them. 😉

[@BlissfulDee]

It looks to me like the globes with Tinkerbell rotate while the music is playing. And yeah, they didn't allow enough space between tables. Would've annoyed me, too.

[@GeminiThrifts]

Ohhh maybe that’s how it works

[@pathelfrich5434]

@@GeminiThrifts I think NYME is correct - especially since it takes batteries. I see one on eBay called Share a Dream Come True. It is listed for $225, but no solds. I didn't check Terapeak. It didn't say if it rotates.

[@Rose39M]

@@GeminiThrifts I believe with the batteries in, tinkerbell turns around. Yes it looked to be what could have been a good rummage sale but obviously they need a bigger venue 😉

[@deborahstone9696]

Great advice. Buyer is sew clumsy thought 😮

[@louannestratuik4354]

Agree, the sale was too crowded for sure. Great score on the trojan horse!!

[@pathelfrich5434]

I go to an area about 30 miles from where I live for rummage sales. Last year there was one that stated in their ad "no resellers". I think it was because they were either just taking donations for the items or selling very cheap and wanted them to go to people who needed the items. I didn't go because I had other places to go. When we go to rummage sales , we will usually give some extra money as most times the money is going to a specific cause such as a food pantry, youth trip or other local cause. Our rummage sales prices tend to be very cheap, and I know I am getting a bargain , so I am happy to do that and they have always expressed their appreciation for the extra money..

[@shannon_w.]

That is so sweet of you! I do the same thing! I feel if it is for a good cause everyone should give an extra dollar or two especially if you know it is an item that will bring really good money and you’re going to make out like a bandit an extra couple bucks won’t kill anyone 😉

[@samanthab1923]

Have done the same especially at the ones who do a lunch & have bake sales. It’s a lot of work.

Hi new to your channel. I would say the tinkerbell rotates when the music plays. The batteries is for the lights. And I seen a damaged one for over a $100 on ebay. The skeleton cat was hilarious its probably motion activated 🤣 The tables was not set up for people to shop comfortably. And I sell something I don't care if they are going to resell it. People like that drive me crazy. I always am happy if I get what I've marked it. And by the end of my swap meets. I am selling boxes and even table top deals. I didn't want to drag it around forever🌺

[@GeminiThrifts]

Thanks, for stopping by the channel! I'll have to check and see if it rotates

[@bobbiek2960]

Keep a few tea towels in ur bag for glassware. Love ur videos

[@sallyfarley9139]

Out of curiosity I looked the snowglobe up and the pictures show tinkerbell sideways when looking from the steps. Someone sold a pre-owned for $100 plus shipping though, so maybe a good decision after all. Try winding it and see if tinkerbell rotates with the music?

[@connieh6758]

Love your videos!! Got a good laugh from your cat skeleton. The tables were just too close together. But that still wouldn't stop me from going again.

[@SalvagedSoul1111]

Hi. Agree with you. The whole layout needs to be reconfigured. Especially the check out....it was nearly impossible to find the end of a line.

[@candicehopkins2344]

Hi! When I worked at The Disney Store in mid 90’s we had those type of snow globes. They were selling upward for $200! And believe you me we sold a lot of them at that price. Cause people had the Disney credit card. And then there was/is exclusive snow globes just for Disney fanatics club. I would ask up to $50 for it! But do your research!

[@lore9572]

I look it up and yes it seems tinker bell rotates with the music

[@susankula7709]

I came on to say the same thing the other lady said. Tinker bell probably rotates when wound up

[@Jojocue1965]

You crack me up the cat the snowglobe omg funny!!!

[@tallygirl2streasures717]

7:09…Those Hallmark Snowmen playing the piano are a good one to resell. I had one that didn’t move anymore but still lit up and played music and it sold for around $30. There were several sitting in that box with the tags! I would have bought them all!

[@Mallratthrift]

Jingle Pals...the piano guy is the most sought after. Was going to mention the same! They sell without tags for around 65.00 at Christmas and really all year. There was a whole box!! I yelled but she didn't hear me!! lol

[@Mallratthrift]

7:11 2 vintage Mr and Mrs Claus motionettes...7:55 was a Mr. Christmas animated music box. I know it was crazy crowded and your skelly kat was distracting you! They should've limited the amt of people at one time. Tink Snow Globe, pretty complete...goes for 125.00 to 250.00 depending on condition, so good you did pick it out!

[@tallygirl2streasures717]

@@Mallratthrift I paused the video and couldn't believe she passed them up. I agree on the price...I have seen them go for $80 even at Christmas time for a moving one. I imagine these with tags would be around $80-$85 and it looked like 5 of them at least in that box. I would have bought them even if only a $20+ profit since NWT and multiple items. One listing to do a quanity on it, or just sell similar to create a new one everytime one sells.

[@julieschafer4979]

On the Tinkerbell "tower". You said it takes batteries. Do you think Tinkerbell goes around and that is why she is backwards? I don't know, I'm just thinking that might be why she was backwards.

[@Lovesanimals736]

Tinker Bell rotates she stopped facing backwards. Looks like a super valuable snow globe on Ebay. I would have sold it as is so buyer could repair at half of what it sales in perfect condition. I mean in the original styrofoam shipping would be easy.

[@SalvagedSoul1111]

I saw you a bit ahead of me in line.....the place was so crowded I never heard the skeleton cat going off. LOL. Glad I didn't hear the "reseller" comment......I go to that sale whenever they have it. Always a madhouse.

Maybe Tinker Bell spins when you wind it up.

[@eliciaburton4862]

My claustrophobic tendencies would have turned me around and out of there in about 2 mins. You picked good stuff. Green horse is an awesome find. That Disney thing, the insides probably turn in the water of the snow globes. That extra part doesn't look like it belongs to it at all. It looks expensive, you should spend the time to put batteries in it, and check it out. It might be worth your time. Loved that you could deal with that crowd.

[@neoanderson726]

yeah I was in savers looking at snow globe that just put out I was looking and looking finally found the damage and then looked at the price 49.99 yeah did not buy that not only for the damage but for the principle they got it for free do they really need to charge that much.

I could see that you were unhappy about not being able to go down each aisle. One large bottom and an aisle was clogged. Poor planning, but I guess they didn't have more space.

[@lillianwilliams5510]

Lots of nice items. How do. you not break the glass items and do you.pay for the item if you break. You were quite clumsy. The spaces were too close They should have a holding area for people to store their items,pay for them and check them,like coat check. There are just too many heavy and breakable items. Looked like people were just grabing. Was there a time limit on shopping. lots of breakage

That way you have a little padding with you.

As someone that recently had knee surgery and am having to use a walker....I made a point to watch to see if there were any people there in that scramble of people that were using something like that. I only saw the one, but it was enough to tell me that even as badly as I hate to miss this sale season....I dont need to be pissin off a bunch of other resellers trying to find treasures! LOL!

They could of had even more sales if more people could fit through! How can you really look and find anything when your all packed in like cattle……. It can make shopping feel like the last day to shop before Christmas! So maybe that’s why you didn’t enjoy it as much. People running into the building like wild dogs for their prey. 😂😂….
