We held our parents' estate sale this summer. We looked up the more valuable items, and then agreed among us on a price range. Everything else was negotiable. None of us four siblings had the gumption to price everything. We sold nearly everything, and made decent money. We all agreed our goal was to clear out the property, not to be antique dealers.
There are two different kinds of estate sales just like garage sales. One is where people just need to get rid of the stuff or make space. The other is where its all about the money and they are just out to make a buck. You held the fun kind of estate sale for shoppers.
@@NancyW82 The only regret I have is selling a concrete bird bath to a kind of jerkish man for $10. Not because of the price, but because of his attitude.
@@NancyW82 a local company here in PA are just out to make a buck. I feel like the most likely have a lot left at the end of the sale. All prices at or above eBay pricing.
This is the best way to get rid of things and sometimes you end up making more money. Everybody wins this way. I need to have a sale like this to clean my fathers estate out bin just not quite ready to do it yet. It’s only been four months.
@@melanietrujillo1709 I'm so sorry. We lost both parents this year, Dad in December and Mother in March. Take your time and do what you can when you can.
It's really refreshing to see resellers helping each other out and talking cordially. In my area it's a real cut throat scene every reseller for themselves no one helps or gives advice
It's not being mean. It's business. This is life. U don't punch the other reseller but u sure don't help or give advice that up to him to do that. In a fake world u can help them lmao.
@@yuppy-hp1mc unless she is cute and will provide you with some services other than that you should limit helping them 🤣🤣I'm the type that will give advice but I'm not just going to give away all my secrets to just anyone...
I'm so tired of estate sales... Most of them are starting to way overvalue their items, especially when it comes to vinyl, trying to charge record store prices.
Wow that was so great, the dolls $400 brill, and it was lovley of you to invite that gent to the party, also the scenic few at the end with the green grass and tree's looked so much like the british landscape! Luv your channel thanks!🇬🇧🤗😊🇬🇧
I'm hooked on how you pick your finds and your knowledge of the items. I found six used brand name designer bags just put on the ground at a dumpster and sold 3 so far. Just enjoy finding and selling! NEW SUB!!👍
Good evening Sir, I follow you while, and yeah I like your style to interact with your potential customers.My wife and I are fleamarket hunters since decades, and our house looks like a museum.The prices you ask for,or get offered are breathtaking cheap in contrast of German or France markets.We love the pictures and the stuff you show us. It's always a look in a part of US living we don't know about in Germany. Thanks for it and greatings from Germany 👍 👍
Hi to you from Fl to Germany my grandma was from Colblanc believe I’m spelling it right not sure. She came thru Ellis Island back in 1921 at 3 MTHS old I still have her tiny thin dress and her papers. God Bless you and Stay safe
Hi, Kevin!! I enjoy your videos!! I have been buying and selling mostly dolls since the early 1970s when I was a teenager. I used to sell via a newsletter listing of dolls, etc for sale called “Collectors United”. We used to call long distance to buy something and would send a check via snail mail. I just love that you run into other dealers on your treasure huntings!! “Is there a picker’s convention here or what”? you said. I hope to see you one day in person-that would be fantastic!! Your fan, Marcia
I’ve been collecting dolls my whole life and those dolls you found were amazing. What an exciting find. I have some nesting dolls that have come from England and I’d love to find out how much they are worth. I’d never get rid of them but I’m so curious.
Hey Kevin! I look forward to your videos! You are so kind & gentleman-like with people & I think our world would be a better place with more people like you. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Awesome video and great finds! I love your line you always say of "Whats the best you can do?" and feel like every reseller needs to adopt it in our vocabulary. Love the commonwealth cabin too 😁
Be thankful that she didn't come back with an ebay price for those dolls. I have been to quite a few garage sales/yard sales this season with ebay prices - post it notes saying it sells for this ____ on ebay...my mouth wanting to say well then sell it on ebay, my brain saying just walk away quietly....i usually listen to my brain.
True. Selling stuff on eBay is not fun. To me at least. I thought I’d sell some things that I had laying around. When they sold. I was like all damn, now I gota go to goin postal across to ship them. Not worth it to me.
You found Grimm! Omg, I loved that show. I wish it had never ended. Plus I love those 2 folk dolls, not sure what they were called, but those were cute. Love your channel
I just found a set of the apple green canisters at a house clean out last night for free! The smallest one hadn't been used. I can't wait to get them listed!!
Thank you for making an extra long video!! 🤗 I could just watch you all day!! Excellent finds and profits as usual! You actually remembered your IKEA bags!! So proud of you Kevin!! ☺️ I’ll keep waiting for you to make it to Maryland one day! We have plenty of Flea Markets and yard sales too! Keep those Videos coming! Love your #1 fan from Baltimore! 💰☺️
Both my mom and I love the song Purple Rain by Prince. He is a very talented singer, and artist too. Sabrina Griffin. My mom Lisa might like wearing that Prince t-shirt.
Hi Kevin! As always, thank you for the content and the education!! I'm so grateful. Just had to say that my anxiety level goes down when you bring your IKEA bags LOL. Not sure what that's about??? Just look so forward to all your videos including the flipper videos and you have a darling family and fur babies.
I must watch them all ever since finding Kevin several years back due to Matt in CA; I’ve been hooked ever since. Just love his family and how he instills values into his children’s life and his wife is a hoot!♥️🤗🤩🇺🇸🙏
I've been reselling for a very very long time piece of advice when you're at an estate sale or an auction or anything like that. Shooting out prices out loud or I can sell this for this or that be a little more discreet because people hear that and then it ripples and then you start seeing prices shoot throught the roof
Shewww, you have the patience of a saint. All that work to set up the sale. With those prices, I imagine they packed most of it back up at the end. 😂😂😂 The Ruston dolls were a nice find!! Congrats!!
Had a friend who started working for an estate sale company. She would charge the client X amount of money just to do the sale. Then they’d price the good items super high and never barter. At the end of the sale the people would be told they owe X amount if the sale wasn’t profitable and for an additional 1000 bucks, they will dispose of the remaining items. Months would go by and she’d have her warehouse open for a massive estate sale of the leftover good stuff she never sold. Unscrupulous broad.
Love the interaction with Thrifter Sifter. I watch all of his stuff too. By the way, because of you I went through some old boxes and found 1 guitar dongle and 1 drum dongle. I listed them and the guitar one sold over night for $24.50. Not bad considering we haven’t used it in 12 years. Thanks for the heads up.
Hey Kevin, you should wear a Commonwealth Picker T-shirt to the meet up-they’re way-kool and if you can’t find one, I know of a little lady who can get you one for a great price! 😆🤣😄😆🤣😄 I’m having fun watching you working hard and having fun! ~ Gary at the PostcardShack
Hey Kevin, those dolls are awesome. Anything out of the ordinary with tags like that I would grab too. Great unexpected comps! Fun sale, yes prices are a little high but fun pickin.
DVD's & Blu-Rays with a "Promo" sticker on them are Wal-Mart Black Friday deals. The put a different UPC sticker on top of the original in case they run out of the cheaper version so the customer isn't getting the more expensive, better version at the discounted rate. If you use Part Time Pickers heat gun, after purchasing of course, and take both stickers off it instantly increases the value even if only by $1.
We used to have that turkey platter a woman picked up. I never liked that amber cookware. Good stuck and never could get it completely clean. Good video!
I watch you all the time and love it. I've seen a bunch of stuff that you pass up that junk journalers or scrapbookers would buy. I make junk journals and wish I was with you most of the time. I very rarely find such good stuff around here. I know my car stops at yard sales!!
I noticed in some of your other videos that sellers would look up prices after you picked. Me, I think is a little disrepectful to the buyer. I am curious on your thoughts on this. I love how awesome you are. So chill!!!!
You missed At the first yard sale behind the pink vision ware that you decided not to buy. Was a pink pitcher it is Hull bloom flite pattern. Depending on the price and condition it should sell for around $40. Pottery is my thing. We have meet before at a sale, that you got an old stuffed tiger plush. I am still picking. Good luck!
That didn't look like a "real " estate sale. Too many of the same thing. Plastic tubs under the tables. This stuff was hauled in. I see this happen all the time at our "estate" sales. Pro companies haul in trailers full of stuff days before.
I know local estate companies rather than trash good items will take them to their next sale. I don’t have an issue with it because I can’t attend all sales and what interests me often is not of interest to others. I picked up some classic books from Hemingway at one sale and the vendor threw in books from the same era from another sale. I’ll treasure all of them.
Question. You know the silver metal canisters that has the flour sugar coffee qnd tea with black handle 50s I think I have them from my mamaws but missing 2 handles also the green with brown lids with like flowers or design in lid any idea how much they are worth.
You didn't even look at those vinyls at 24:07. It seems he had very good titles there and Rock music on vinyls are always making money anywhere. How much did he sell for the popular albums?
They have no business sense eBay sellers have fees transportation expenses labor overhead at times etc Why don't they try selling no they don't want to do the work They want to sell at at retail so you lose money????
You can't even look up to your heroes anymore... I was at the Farmers & Merchant Bank in Garbage Grove when Dal and Roy were there for. book signing... Here I was expecting at least Roy being at least 6'4" and there I was as a 10 year old boy towering over them... (I won't mention the year or it will prove that I'm over 39...😹😹😹)... I was disappointed to realize this fact... This is why I started my post with that opening statement... They were both bigger then their appearance though... You knew they were high quality as human beings and Dale was a total sweetheart... Dale even suggested that I go into the ministry without even realizing that that was my goal... Imagine that 7 years later I was ordained as a chaplain at my soon to be father-in-law's mortuary...even though I performed three ceremonies without being ordained on an emergency basis...
Hey Kevin, long time subscriber, first time commenting...Always enjoy your videos. Quick question if I may. Wondering how often do you use best offer on your ebay listings? And how often do you promote your listings on ebay. Any help would be appreciated! ThankYou!
A few of the yard sales here in Tampa will have an eBay printout next to their items. I just head back to the car and go on to the next one. eBay seller Lee
They have no business sense They think you making money is for free yet they don't want to sell it themselves on eBay because it's work fees and waiting for sales and hunting for inventory . Transportation expenses equipment and supplies expenses dealing with customers reducing prices eBay sellers competition Hard work packing orders labor They think they deserve retail so you will not make.money You making money off them is a problem
A friend of mine did the same thing. She didn’t sell as much as she wanted. I tried to tell her, however….She ended up donating some items instead of taking a lower price for them. I was heartbroken for her.
I only go to estate sales during the last couple hours because everything is usually half off or even more. I can't see flipping things at most sales on the first day because the prices are sometimes higher than eBays.
Really depends on the people running the sale - I've learned who has good prices & who doesn't in my area, and there are a couple of sellers that I'll show up to day-1 because they always have awesome prices.
I mostly agree but I would have missed those dolls. This was actually an accidental estate sale. Wasn't planning on going to it but ran into it just minutes before it started.
You know with a little bit of practice, you can repair a lot of electronics pretty easily. I often repair radios, VCRs, etc. in minutes and with inexpensive supplies. A replacement radio antenna is a few bucks at the most.
I think you should keep on the down low, people get weird if you resell their stuff lol. Might not run into that problem 😉 thanks for sharing. Love your videos.
there's a restaurant/ bar down the street from me named Blue Moon. of course they have that beer and a little pink pig lawn ornament on the grass. come visit sometime.
Who would have thought you would have to be a Savage beast and vicious at something as casual as a yard sale. I don't have it in me and I could never participate in that market. LOL I understand it's a business and you're making money that's the point but I like yard sales to find cute different things that I like. These southern belles are snatching wigs and pulling out switchblades. 😂🤣. Not literally but that's just the vibe I get
Most people probably know these things but: When you are at a sale and you show comps, are they what they sold for and why is there a line through the price 🤔?

Maybe but the item is theirs to do with what they want until the sell it.
Fleetwood Mac, Def Leopard, Kiss t's are great
Too bad you had to loudly explain re-selling at the sale so the lady overheard and realized she should check the prices on the dolls.
That’s not what happened
Love how you always try to find away to support all the sellers👍👍🙏
What an exciting find on the dolls. TFS
Great finds today 👍🏻

How?
It’s just a hobby. None of these resellers are makin any serious money.

Thats why you shouldnt talk about how much you can resell them for or let them know u resell unless they ask ?
Seem like some of the sellers are looking up prices online and that makes your job a whole lot harder.
They have no business sense
eBay sellers have fees transportation expenses labor overhead at times etc
Why don't they try selling no they don't want to do the work
They want to sell at at retail so you lose money????

I also met Roy Rogers and Trigger at the Roy Rogers Restaurant in Fairfax, VA
I only go to estate sales during the last couple hours because everything is usually half off or even more. I can't see flipping things at most sales on the first day because the prices are sometimes higher than eBays.
Really depends on the people running the sale - I've learned who has good prices & who doesn't in my area, and there are a couple of sellers that I'll show up to day-1 because they always have awesome prices.
I mostly agree but I would have missed those dolls. This was actually an accidental estate sale. Wasn't planning on going to it but ran into it just minutes before it started.
I am a new thrifter from Greenville NC and I love watching your channel! I’ve learned so much!
You know with a little bit of practice, you can repair a lot of electronics pretty easily. I often repair radios, VCRs, etc. in minutes and with inexpensive supplies. A replacement radio antenna is a few bucks at the most.
I have a hard time with screwing in lightbulbs. I wish I had even basic skills.
I sure wish I could find yard sales like these in our area here in Augusta GA
Did the boom box work? It reminds me of being young😀that last seller had some great tees 🤘
People always wanna know what can you make but never wanna do the work
I think you should keep on the down low, people get weird if you resell their stuff lol. Might not run into that problem 😉 thanks for sharing. Love your videos.
Chivas Regal does sound like a theater but it’s a scotch whisky!
there's a restaurant/ bar down the street from me named Blue Moon. of course they have that beer and a little pink pig lawn ornament on the grass. come visit sometime.
those concert shirts are awesome! I wonder where he found them all. they seem so difficult to find, like a diamond in the rough
He definitely had a lot of cool stuff!
Who would have thought you would have to be a Savage beast and vicious at something as casual as a yard sale. I don't have it in me and I could never participate in that market. LOL I understand it's a business and you're making money that's the point but I like yard sales to find cute different things that I like. These southern belles are snatching wigs and pulling out switchblades. 😂🤣. Not literally but that's just the vibe I get
Damn, I loved that Janis joplin tshirt❣️☮️💯🥰🇨🇱
I LIKE THE WAY YOU HANDLE YOUR CAMERA ON YR. VIDEOS!!
Awesome stuff my friend, excellent video.
Roy Rodgers museum is now in Missouri. Been there for over 10 years now.
I'm all about Purple Rain, being from Minneapolis!
East Tennessee Native stopping in to check out your videos!
Nice rushton finds.
Most people probably know these things but:
When you are at a sale and you show comps, are they what they sold for and why is there a line through the price 🤔?
Green is a sold price. A line is because the seller took a best offer less than asking price.
That Vans shirt had their second logo on it...first had a more pronounced S... Heck...they started in Huntington Beach CA...
I miss yard sales :) my puppies love the baby toys!
I like how they say "They go on eBay for 300$" but it doesn't sell for nearly..
Just came across your videos today, fun to watch 😊
Welcome!!
OMG that blue moon tap. Would buy it in a minute
