    I collect a lot too and buy and sell antiques for a living. This man is right up my alley! Only difference is that I don't know much about old cars and industrial antiques, hardware, etc like he does. This is so cool!

    I'm surprised I didn't become a junk man. When I was growing up, I brought home everything.

    Well, Dandridge, I guess we need to start calling you Perry. I must say that was a very interesting video and you did a great job of presenting your wares. I really enjoyed it; you've got a real knack for presentations. All this time and Leonard and I didn't know that we were trading with a famous and professional artisan of the craft. Hope to see you again at the FleaMart in August. Happy Trails.

    John this was a very interesting video. I'm 71 years old and I recall some of the older items that you showed in your video. Junk man has some very interesting items. I thought that old 1917 trophy was quite a nice find for Junk man.

    Interesting video and interview. I grew up in Orange City FL which is very close to the area Mr. Perry lived. I live in central AL now for the last 40 years with my husband. Is the store open regularly or just during the yard sale days?

    I don't know anything about Perry, and I don't mean this in a disrespectful way... but he sounds like he's from Seattle and not Appalachia. I may just have to take a trip east to see the junk man's treasures and have one of Tiffany's "World Famous Bologna Sandwiches". You just can't get a good bologna sandwich in Palm Springs. 😁😁
