Collectible Stuff add to the shop


Stop in the shop, lots of collectibles and other neat stuff added every week. Please use links or click on images to go to the item pages.

Figured we would go the the flea market to sell some goodies this morning and maybe pickup a few things. Well, I ended up buying about 65 pieces of graniteware, a few nice early coffee tins and a box of other assorted items. So now it was time to set up due to empty pocketitis and start pushing out the stuff that I brought with me, now that I was in a minus position. Of course the buyers weren't working with me but I did manage to get some of their money. One of those sell stuff to turn cash days, but managed to get rid of a few boxes of not sure why I had it stuff. Love selling that stuff. It got to about the high 80's and I was set up facing the sun, which I normally don't do but I got there a few minutes late most the other spots were taken. The crowd thinned early and I was out of there before noon. Came home dragged my new purchases into the house, sat down had a bowl of ice cream and started digging in the new goodies. Guess I'll start adding some to the shop tomorrow, not going anywhere, they're talking 90's, a/c will be on.

Antique Copper Tea Kettles, Old Postcards


Stop in the shop, lots of collectibles and other neat stuff added every week. Please use links or click on images to go to the item pages.

Went to the market on Sunday, I know not why. They changed the weather forecast to possible showers and it seemed to have rained here and there so I was told by some people who showed up. After wandering around a bit and buying some stuff, I decided to set up even though it looked a little shakey in the sky. Figured I'd just use one table and grabbed the boxes closest to the back of the van. Bad move, those that did come out to shop were those of the dollar mentality and what I put out was mostly in the $10 - $20 range. Sold a few things to some of the regulars and then hung out fighting off the "I'll give ya's" and the other lower level buyers who grab their chest and make noises if the price is like over $3.00. I mean like why would I want more than a couple of bucks for a cut glass pitcher or a Lenox plate or a 14K gold ring. Anyhow It wasn't a very profitable day, not lots of fun either. Shouda just kept walking and buying. Oh well another day in the life of a market seller.

Hey, a few more weeks and it's auction time again at Country Joe's Auction.

Hi all, well we were off to the market again on Friday, sold for a few hours and got out before the heat. Pretty much dealer action early, sold a bunch of stuff, paper and postcards, silverplate flatware, some glass and a bunch of misc jibberish. Love getting rid of the jibberish. Wasn't to much to buy although I only wandered around for a little while. Was more interested I making room in the van. Had a few empty boxes in the end, that's progress.

Going to the market tomorrow (Sunday), weather looks good in the 70's. Added a bunch of glass that has been hanging around to the load in the truck. What doesn't sell tomorrow will get put with the pile o' stuff in storage which will be auctionbound in a few weeks. Maybe I can buy some treasures early in the morning.
