I have had some amazing finds at garage/estate sales including the first year Basketball Beam team complete set, 2 1971 - mini size card football sets (can't think of the name of them), which I was sure they were going to be reprints both sold for over $200 & a bunch of other great stuff! It's...
I'm not a big poster but this is what I have seen:
PRO:
1. I have meet (not in person) some great people on here who know their **** and are very helpful especially for someone just starting out.
2. I have never been to BO, but with the knowledgeable people on here - like Jaypers, Rum and Astro...
Great stuff for $40 a box. Here is one of the sets I got at the last sale. Sold the first for $190. Paid $15 for a bunch of stuff, these were in a binder. Had no idea of what they were or worth.
1970 Topps 3-d Superstars 60 card set.
Good Luck! I made a nice estate sale purchase 2 months ago. Not like yours where you couldn't go through it, so I hand picked some stuff I felt I would do good with. I paid $31 and I sold one item for $189.95 and just listed the 2nd of the same set. I had no idea about this particular set as the...
While I understand some people like to get close to the action, I never would get that close to a game when we go. Maybe way down the left or right field lines, but no place near the dugouts. After the lady in Boston and I remember when I went to a Yankee game when living in NY, they carried out...
The King's Return! Rum always with the greatest finds and Astro with his shirts. Here are a few finds. Spent the most ever this weekend, but most stuff that would not interest many of you, but should give a nice profit.
Finally some toys! Ninja Turtles & Lord of the Rings
Also with the Lord...
Rum is the king of hats. He knows every style ever made I think. Astro is the t-shirt guy and they both know about jerseys. I gave up on T-shirts - I think I just suck at picking good ones. Even ones I think should sell have not. I buy jerseys (see prior post) and hats if they are in good shape...
Good to see you back. I should have re-phased my post...I know you & Rum are still around, I should have said just not as often. I guess most of us are pretty busy with life. I need to talk to Rum again anyway. Hope to see some of his normal great finds. Got some good stuff today - A Stop sign...
Some nice finds lately:
Gameboy Advance NASA knife set
Garmin handheld GPS LEBRON Factory sealed
I hope people start to post in this thread again. I love it and I know that Rum & Astro left, but I know lots of people are still doing this.
Sports Card and stuff related - I went to an...
For some of us still drooling can you show some pictures of other customs you have built? I remember a Duke of Hazards, but not sure if that was yours. Truly amazing talent!
Thanks Astro. I do include the size of the shirt in the title and description, but I got the yard stick idea from you so credit to you! I will consider the two if I can find another yard stick around the house. Thanks again.
I love some of the oddball stuff. While it may have not caught on, now it is cool because everyone has the "regular" size cards and they are worthless. Not that the oddball stuff is but you don't see it everyday.
Astroburn is the guy for this question. I suck at selling shirts, but I kept trying until I really realized I sucked at it. I sold a few and I bet most were new with tags, so that is a good thing you have going. What price did you buy them for? Based on that is where you start your selling...
