You would have fun time scratching


:grin: :pound: :grin:

Scratching through the cash :FF:

LOL


:heh:

That is big but we have 5 much larger then that here in Florida.

Would love to go to that one.

Rsot, Springfield Ohio has an extravaganza flea market twice a year with 3000 dealers setting up. Used to be larger. Back in the 70-80s-90s it had close to 5000 dealers in the fall easily. You had to pay extra to get in early which we always did.

Its either cash or bed bugs.

Cr*p, there is the montior sprayed

:mad:

ewww nasty.

Exactly why I do not any furniture with any cloth.

If I buy an estate, storage locker etc I never take this stuff with me and have a guy who will come and pay me decent for all of these things.

Dont buy furniture with cloth unless you know understand the circumstances.

So true - avoid those infestations.

At the "rsot" comment.... :mad2:

I have bought storage lockers with several pieces of furniture and other cloth items and I always have my buyer come and get those items.

Now for my trick, I let off bombs in any storage unit I buy for a day because I dont want other peoples nasty habits in my van.

Another hint for those who got to auctions, yard sales, estate or tag sales.

NEVER TAKE HOME A CARDBOARD BOX.

Always take totes, paper and or bubble wrap with you to pack your items in.

I never re used anyones paper or boxes ever.

Here's another one for you Sandy D
 

$165 TV stand used to store booze actually a $10.4m Japanese antique | News.com.au

There's still out there!

Wow!!

10 char

Magnificent creation.

Best £100 pounds that family ever spent. Likely there will be more pieces around in the UK too.

Off to a great Museum too.

In the meantime, I'm still searching ...

@LilyPily

First year I was in OZ, we drove along the Murray River thro' The Riverina and into Ballarat & Bendigo. Found heaps of antiques in all sorts of places.

Stuff is out there.

Keep looking

Hit and miss but very nice hit on the box...too bad it is kind of stolen property :FF:

There is money laying around every single town in the USA.

Outside of the USA I am sure in the UK there are tons of these type things in people homes, stores etc.

Just have to be out and about looking and researching.

Stopped at a thrift store yesterday and found a new in bag 12 person camping tent by a well know maker.

Tag read-- used tent 14.99

Stopped by storage shed to drop off all my finds from yesterday and decided to open the bag even further to see if there are any holes etc.

I look briefly at it at the store and did not open it completely so I need to know.

This is not a used tent, this is new and has never been used at all.

This tent sells on ebay for 250-300 range new in the box which I dont have but still have the carrying bag and should get 200-250 easily.

Sometimes you have to look for things out of your niche to see the value in things.

When it comes to making money there's always hard work, research and good opportunity involved behind the financial reward.

Thrill of the chase

According to my Mom I am a bower bird (collect goodies)

Always looking,finding stuff then waiting to off load.

Then start again
:thumb:

It sure is.

I still after all these years get a pit in my stomach to find that one items that is a huge score.

Heading to a huge antique mall tomorrow morning in search of someone not knowing what an item is or what to call it etc.

I will come home with some goodies and hope to find something way over board. Last trip to this mall I found several smalls and one real treat.

Place is huge and stacked with antiques so I should find something hidden.
