Big eBay Profits with Obscure Vintage Items! | Realized Antique Prices

We love finding new homes for fantastic and fun collectibles! Sometimes something just pops for a collector, and they have to have it. What item sold for 33 times what we paid last month?

We'll tell all as we review this flight of awesome antiques and valuable vintage items, where the more obscure they are, the better they sell! Pottery from places few have heard, art glass pieces in short lived color schemes, an unintentionally funny pocket mirror and an incredibly elegant Hungarian cornucopia all found their new homes, at prices that show there are serious collectors putting special pieces in their collections!

We talk about what sells and why, what our strategies with eBay listings are (when would we use a reserve?), and reveal the final hammer prices on a bevy of fun and beautiful objects that give both collectors and resellers inspiration.

That was one of my favorite shows too. I didn't even know there was a book. I used to dream I was flying every night because of this TV show.

Those rollerskaing Rink decals look GREAT but I think someone did a "warehouse find" of them about 20 years ago.

[seaside]

Not bad, Not bad. Good sales and interesting pieces.

George, youi are driving me nuts with those crooked pictures behind you! I need to send you a little pocket level. I carry one all the time.

$610. For the Big Sky piece is fantastic.
I went snow skiing in Big Sky, Montana.
Beautiful place.
Perhaps the buyer visits there as well.

I am new to your channel. Thanks to Crazy Lamp Lady, I found you and I'm really enjoying your you call these. I'm learning a lot from you and I so appreciate your passion and your extensive knowledge. I inherited many items from my mother-in-law (who never threw anything away) and I'm just trying to learn what might have value and just what it is that I have in my possession now. Again, thank you for sharing with us and I look forward to many more videos/posts....whatever you call them.

Hi George, I noticed that you had all items on auction, don't they sell higher on buy it now? That's been my experience at least... oh, and THAN YOU for the wealth of knowledge you so generously share!

[CONSTELLATION_PEGASUS]

Great sales! I almost fell out of my chair, at the "For Eats..." sign 🤣 It brought a super-good price! I have, when I've come across something on eBay with a reserve, contacted the seller and asked what the reserve was. I usually won't bid on items with a reserve, but the seller told me the reserve amount, and it was a good price, so I simply placed a bid of the reserve price and bought it. I think it was one of the beverage sets, if I remember correctly...no idea which one, though. It never hurts to ask🙂 Really great sales!!! Congrats!!!

Hi George, I was so excited to hear you drive through Hays, KS! I live within 60 miles of Hays and would love to meet up on one of your trips! 🌻
