I find this house fascinating. Sure it’s a huge hoard and a big mess but it’s also meticulously organized in most parts.

[Ad-Infinitum]

The owner looked pristine in the photo and I noticed how neatly the things were folded in the cupboard and the suitcase... It seems things just got too much for her. Likely depression, I noticed there were no modern men's clothing, perhaps it was grief.

What I see, watching this estate clean out, is a lady who lived a full life until one day she didn't. She filled her loneliness with shopping. It looks like she shopped for a lot of things that made her nostalgic. If you peel off the top layer of that manic mess and get to the days she "kept house", there are probably some real treasures in pristine condition. Looks like she had excellent taste, but a bit whimsical too. I like this lady. Good vibes. ✌💜

I am a 70 year old woman who grew up in the 60’ s and love this show, although it is tough to hear things I recognize and even wore being called vintage. I am sitting at home in Minnesota (COVID) and this is my reward. Love this series please make more, you have quite a following.

I’d love a special “episode” of the favorite clothing items out of the house once he’s had time to sort and inspect them!

[Lily_and_River]

All the comments saying that guy is making a fortune with the clothes... Do you realise that he will need to put in a ton of work and time to sort all these clothes, wash them, take pictures, list them on Etsy etc. Everyone who has worked reselling knows that the price of a product is just one part of it. So Alex is saving himself a lot of time and trouble which is necessary if he wants to empty this house in 8 weeks. That's how it works, everybody wins.

10 grand for all the clothing, shoes & purses was an absolute steal. Most being designer. Vintage clothing has become a really hot commodity.

[mwillis]

I’d love to see a “tour” of the clothing when the person has gone through all the clothing!

You should set aside all those towels and rags so you can lay them between the breakables when packing up.

Towels and blankets are good to be donated to RSPCA/Humane Society animal shelters. Please call them first to see if they are wanted right now.

I always appreciate how empathetic and kind you are when speaking about the hoard and the homeowners. It would be easy to be negative and shame them, but you always speak so respectfully.

She got home from a trip decades ago and never unpacked. This is, at least, the second suitcase I've seen packed when opened. And there are so many suitcases about - are they packed too?! I am fascinated and entranced by her. I am enjoying this so much already.

[SannaGNR]

I gasped when I saw her picture, what a glamorous woman, very pretty.

[SargeRedsVintageToys]

Alexander, your fans 100% expect you to wear the crochet cowboy hat for the next pick video. DO NOT DISAPPOINT 😁😆😂🤣

[heatherg]

I think you absolutely made the right decision with selling the clothing. You could have made more on it but there is no way you have the time and space to sort, catalogue and sell it.

[amkow]

I'm fascinated by this woman. I think she would have been an extremely interesting person to know

[growlingcheetah]

You guys need to be wearing masks all the time in there. We don't want the same thing to happen as in the potter house.. all that dust, mold, dander and who knows what can literally damage your lungs for life, been there done that and learnt the hard way xoxo

[crinkle]

You can take the never used toothpaste toothbrushes ect to a shelter or a church pantry.

[brendasoler]

I admire the amount of respect you display in dealing with this home clean-out, particularly when you speak about the former owner. Additionally, you now refer to this property as the Musician’s House, which is a kind and compassionate gesture. Best wishes to you and your family this holiday season, and good luck with this fascinating project. I can’t stop watching!

please ask Santa for a GoPro, so you can film and have both hands free to explore 🤭🤣
