The Ultimate Hwy 127 World's Longest Yard Sale! Am I Passing Up Too Much Good Vintage Stuff?
Deeper and deeper I go into the Kentucky junk... I mean vintage treasures and antiques! I think I might be passing up too many good pieces; I might be getting a little worn down going into the final weekend of the World's Longest Yard Sale. I think I should have tracked down some prices on some of this stuff: antique broad axes, old wooden crates, vintage metal signs over a hundred years old. Gotta hang in there!

      @switchbackmatt 29 днів тому

      Hey there! This market wouldn’t be the one for golf clubs. Best chance for finding those would be at the Park n Swap by Sky Harbor, or maybe the Glendale flea market at the Glendale Drive-In. Very good chance at Park n Swap. Hope that helps!
