YES! Yes I am.... High Profit Finds!! ~ It's a WHATNOT REVIEW & a Goodwill HAUL

[@kristinacragerud385]

Happy 62 birthday! I turn 71 on the 17th. Enjoy sweet lady! The days go so fast! Hugs!

[@tinaranson6172]

Happy Birthday early!

[@claudineboulert8860]

The Louvre has fund raisers, where the art restorers who you can imagine are of great skill and talent, copy and hand paint works of the masters as reproductions which are sold in the museum. I sold a Monet Repro for hundreds. People are aware they are not "real" but its the nearest theyll ever come to have it hanging on their wall.

[@peggyr2984]

Art students are usually required to do a copy of a master, which could be another source-advanced art students.

[@shirlramsey3012]

This is your very best video. I loved all your finds. Very, very nice things and you were so sweet and cute. I hope you and Roger are together forever!! God is so good!!

[@brianhenry2385]

Tiffany Style Lamp: because the 3 absent triangular glass pieces are symmetrical, I think you are right about them being intentional there to vent heat. I would say mention them, as a positive feature in your listing. Not a flaw.

[@cynthiabrown6471]

Happy birthday Karen! I’ve seen stained glass lampshades with air vents like that for heat to escape. That usually means good quality. The color is amazing!

[@stitcher4729]

The even spacing says vents to me too.

[@BloomByCC]

Oh! Good to know!

[@peggyr2984]

I’m sure glad you knew about that. The spacing, as “Stitcher” noted, and that the shape was just a bit different than the other spaces made me think it was intentional. Now Karen can sell it in perfect condition.

[@Pampnaylor]

You are so amazing in front of the camera.. it really loves you! So at ease and you make it look so easy. And I know that it’s not! I know you probably have to edit but still you’re probably an amazing doing that as well. I love browsing your store. Your prices are a little bit higher than many people. But I know that you have so many sales so that’s why I watch you I want to learn so a few little things that I sell I can do it right. Thank you so much for all you do and you’re great videos.

[@andreabee1481]

So glad you mentioned your mom. I lost mine 4 months ago. She loved your videos and encouraged me to do what you do and watch you.

[@MelywoodMedia]

I appreciate your take on “What Not”. I heard more cons than pros with the ap. Sounds like they want sellers to bring them buyers and the sellers get less money. I like your “long haul” approach to selling. You only buy top tier items, you know what they are, do your research and bring unique things to a National market: I started on eBay as a buyer. There were nights after work I’d pour a glass of wine and shop keywords like “Art Nouveau” all night long having a better time than watching TV. I bought Ralph Lauren bedding on eBay to furnish all my bedrooms and loved putting things on my watch list and obsessing over what I wanted. When I started last year as a seller I figured there were millions of women who shop on eBay like I did because no other platform offers the quality and selection across many brands. I first sold things on eBay in the 90’s when you had to wait for your check to come in the mail before PayPal.

[@annholland51]

I am very much with you! Wish we could talk🙂

[@purpledaisy4850]

You do a wonderful job! May we all be so lucky to be like you at age 62!!! You are killing it! 🎉🎉

[@brianhenry2385]

Pie Basket Insert: I think the idea behind the insert shelf is to allow for 2 pies to go in the basket. 1 up, 1 down, because if 1 pie is good to bring, 2 pies are even better!

[@annholland51]

Makes sense!

[@lavenderclothesline]

The legs of the stand would crush the bottom pie, no?? 😁💜

[@brianhenry2385]

Always hard to tell when you hold things up, but it looked like the legs were far enough apart to go around a pie plate, but to be sure you'd have to test it with a 9 or 10" pie plate. The other possibility is that the space under the stand would be for the forks, napkins and plates to serve the pie.

[@donnakern1935]

@@brianhenry2385 You are correct. Longaberger marketed this as a two pie basket. I’ve taken two pies in mine and it’s perfect. No crushed pies in this house. 😉

[@timtaman5]

Happy Birthday Karen!! You make 62 look fabulous!!!

[@blueelf217]

You look amazing! Would never tell you're 62, you look way younger. Happy Birthday!

[@staceykasha2330]

Happy Birthday Karen! Wow you look fantastic for 62! Watched the whatnot show, it was a lot of fun! Thanks again for another great Sunday morning vid, got my coffee ready to enjoy! 🥰

[@vintagegal4919]

Oh my goodness, you brought a tear to my eye when you lifted that jewelry box up. My mom passed 3 years ago and one thing of hers that I have is that exact jewelry box! I hadn't seen another one like it until tonight 💕

[@saradean5523]

I have that same jewelry box; it was a gift to my grandmother when I was 9 and I am 65 now; our family gave it to her - we bought it at Pier One in the 1960s

[@carltonthepug]

I have that jewelry box

[@Jaylobee]

“I’m getting so old I’m talking about stuffed cats”. You’re so funny! 🤣

[@barbknight7803]

I have that EXACT wooden jewelry box! I bought it at an antique store at age 19 (I’m now 57)….so I’m really sure it’s super duper antique 😊

[@maryjoymath3545]

Watching a year old video. The wide gold trimmed green glass plate, lovely, could be vintage, the green glass could glow under a black light, thus uranium within, very collectable!!! Very perfectly lovely!!! Your Mom was a hard worker, well the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree!!! U both are amazing ladies!!!💞💞🙃💞💞

[@veronicastewart1112]

I don't know much about Tiffany-style lamps but intuitively, I feel that those gaps at the top are intentional because they are evenly spaced. Happy Birthday, aahhhh, I remember 62.

[@tanjacouch3340]

Oh Happy Belated Birthday Sis. You are GORGEOUS! Would never guess ever that you were 62!! That’s just Cray-Cray!!!🫶🏻🎉🎁🎈

[@annzaff2866]

I used that mini basket as an evening bag for 10 years and now my daughter uses it. I always got compliments at the table I was seated at, as I placed in on the table.

[@glorianelson9538]

I agree with you Karen regarding what is one of the most special qualities we could want in a man: Kindness. I think you and Roger make a beautiful couple, blessings to you both and on your birthday!! As for What Not, the ones I've watched offer a lot of rejects and worthless items. I still go to Ebay and other platforms for better quality. Have a great week!

[@the_purgery]

HBD! My youngest turned 26 last week also, and that is what makes me feel my age. Hubby turns 64 today and I turn 64 on 28th (lots of September birthdays in our house). I enjoy your videos on the weekends when I relax (not retired yet).

[@lavenderclothesline]

My youngest is 35! Yikes 😂

[@celestesmith8921]

Happy belated birthday xoxo You look GREAT for 62,seems that you in good shape.:

[@annaking9213]

Your so knowledgeable, thanks for teaching us. I have been binge watching your videos for 3 weeks, back 3 yr.

[@forgiven5919]

Happy birthday Karen! You are a beautiful 62! I was impressed by the hawk picture, very good choice.

[@SherryNerreau]

You are an amazing business woman Karen. And apparently a very busy one! The wood jewelry box was gorgeous. Love hearing why you buy certain things. Very interesting.

[@elainebolten5205]

i am hooked on your videos! I wish I had a big Goodwill in my town- ours is very small and always picked over by dealers- my husband & I have 4 booths & one big glass lock case in our local antique mall. I am a part time cashier there too- it is a great mall and has been voted the best in our area the last several years! I am learning a LOT from you- we have been at it well over 10 years but you know brands and how good or not good they are- i know quite a few but still learning- I love to see Roger getting in there and thrifting too! THANKS!

[@susank2463]

That silvery blouse is gorgeous and looks perfect with your wall art!

[@peggykelly5019]

I just started watching your videos and really appreciate how much helpful information you pack into each minute. Looking forward to watching more of your videos, past and future.

[@janinedevilliers510]

I wish you a very Happy Birthday Karen. 🎉🎂 You deserve all the happiness in the world and a kind man. You work very hard, you are extremely professional, classy, and organised. Everything you do is inspirational. You are not afraid to share knowledge and information which makes you and your channel one of my favorites to watch. Be blessed. Love from Germany 💖👌

No wonder why I enjoy your vlogs we're the same age...time does fly...by..Think it's great you found Roger and enjoy you both.

[@reenehollingsworth2049]

Yes the holes on the Stainglass lamp is for ventilation. Glass can get very hot.

[@anafredbrutout8607]

I love your advice when looking at items, and those twinkling lights too. I watch you just as soon as you post. I don't do resale, but just want to know that I am buying quality. HAPPY BIRTHDAY a few days late.

[@artofacademics]

Happy birthday! You are a great inspiration to me because I’m trying to work toward developing a full-time reselling business for when I retire in six years. And when I see you looking so happy with what you’re doing and your life it makes me feel inspired about my future. And what I like is that you found happiness in yourself first, bought a home, and really seem to get yourself in a place where you had a lot of self love and respect. And then you found love so it’s like to hold people coming together instead of broken people. Those are all the things I want as I dream and work in my life as well. So thank you for all the inspiration over the years!

[@janearuin2312]

I think, Tiffany style lamp holes done for ventilation because they are symmetrical

[@blancavr1]

I also found a nice kind man 2 years ago. As a widow life was difficult and my prayers were also answered. Thank you for sharing 👍

Bordello pinheiro one of my favourite brands to find massive following especially the pink lovely find. Happy birthday love your shows

[@bjohnson1149]

That Bordello bowl is a great find. Very collectible.

[@sherrimiller5951]

Glass crafter here, and glass shades should have vent holes. Usually, the metal cap at the top would have vent holes; since this lampshade doesn't have it, I suspect the pieces of glass were either left out or removed so the leading and solder didn't heat up and soften/become pliable.

[@jonifredericks1613]

That Tiffany style lamp is gorgeous!! You are right!…the cats are adorable. Very nice haul!!

[@thriftiegirltreasures]

Karen I love your videos. I’ve had to pause my reselling. My husband and I decided to separate after 20+ years of marriage. I go to thrift stores and it take everything I have to not buy something to resell. Hopefully in 6 months or so I can restart my business. In the meantime I will live through your videos.

I can't believe the quality and prices at the goodwills near you it's insane- the quality of the merchandise you get at my Goodwill -the prices would be triple what you're paying -I just don't get it-as far as what not +I knew the prices would go substantially lower than what you're used to but it's another avenue to have money coming in as long as your mindful of the profit-happy belated birthday to another 62-year-old I hope you and Rodger had a fabulous time and your kids too all the best to you and your family 🎉🎂
