    Some cool finds. The thrift stores in your area are definitely better than the ones close to me.

    Would like a video about creating an etsy account. How much personal info you have to give, banking info requirements, etc.

    That stone in the pendant is probably Moisanite… just under diamond in hardness. Actually harder to find too.

    Cool video as usual although I did chuckle a little when you said a lovely vintage bulova but I've just got to buff out the plastic ,probably saffire crystal and worth testing for gold .

      Thanks, it is a plastic crystal, and I did test it for gold. Honestly I have seen 100 vintage bulova watches and only 2 of them were gold

      @@simonyallop1488 Forsure usually they are marked clearly 14k on the back. With that said I found a 19k gold watch that was only marked under the strap. The only way to see the marking was to take the strap off

      Thanks, I think someone cleaned it with comet. I did acid test it, and it is silver. My guess is maybe Mexican

      @@vintagesterlingfinds sometimes when it’s thickly plated it can give you a false test, best to hit it with a small file where it won’t show and do the acid test where the material was removed

    Hey brotha, UA-cam isn't alerting me on your videos and I have it set for all videos. I see I've missed three videos just wanted to let you know that algorithm is not working well alerting me or showing me new videos. To be honest it kind of pisses me off because although this is a smaller Channel, it is one of the ones I thoroughly enjoy. Ok rant over

    Your evaluations are typically a bit high - can you show us your final "sold" amounts?

    • @vintagesterlingfinds
      @vintagesterlingfinds  Рік тому +1

      I do agree, I do price my items on the higher end as I do give free shipping, and negotiate on prices. It is hard for me to do that because I always upload my videos on the same day as recording. Most of the item I have featured in past videos have sold for the amounts I have stated
