    Taco! You didn’t do too bad today. I few suggestions…..label what type of wood it is bc some folks don’t know. With you rugs/ carpet…open them up to show their patterns. If you don’t sell the boards you can use them as shelves in the warehouse. Glad you found the golf balls & the baby pool. Salsa is going to love splashing around in it! I think that putting stuff in deep boxes makes it hard for people to see what is in it. Maybe smaller items put in a flat so it can be seen better.
    Blessings always to you & Salsa! 🙏❤️

    Good deal on the golf balls. It looks like your door needs new hinges or releveled. We had to do it with one of our buildings. Decanters and most lower value glass had its time. One possible way to unload some would be to give a little table space to it. If it doesn't sell donate/recycle.

    When I deployed to Liberia there was no running water or electricity in the capital city but they had two cell phone providers. That is how they access the internet. All the phones were really dated, something that very few people in the US would be using. The technology trickles down to emerging nations and economies that are not as robust as the leading industrial countries.

    In my area of Ohio, those boards go for like $12 a foot. People buy the smaller ones to make a mantle shelf or free hanging shelves. When my aunt died, her entire contents of her house were NICE. but not my style. I had one yardsale and it made about $800 but it was a disaster. The very first day people were picking up items that were priced and asking me for like 90% off the tag. "Uhm, no, this is the first day and I've been opened 30minutes". A few people cursed me and walked off.
    My stuff was CHEAP. A coffee table $10, two end tables $5 each, etc. I just wanted some room in the house to work on painting the rooms and sorting only what I wanted to keep. I had a woman argue that my pots and pans for only $1 she saw at other yard sales for a quarter. She left mad that I didn't let her have them for twenty five cents. After the first day I didn't open up the second day. I got $600 out of one very nice cherry dining room table and 8 chairs. Some guy asked me if I'd take $100. When another guy heard me, he said "I'll take it for $600 ". So I sold it to him and he was thrilled. It cost about $1,400 years ago and was show polished new looking.
    I gave the rest away, all of it rather than bicker about pricing.
    I love watching Taco video's. To get to see all his stuff and see what he see's along the way. Bringing in the outside world means a lot.
