Flea Markets / That was really a long day..............
« on: May 07, 2011, 06:55:38 PM »
This topic does not really fit in either Flea Market or Yard sales. But I feel it is more closer to Flea Market.

Anyway, went to that rummage sale today. From 6:30 till 2:00. Selling from 8am - 1pm (wish they would of let us stay longer). Paid $20 for two spots. I made my money back on that plus a profit of $60. Lol, I got more traffic at my house on my first two yard sales than I did at the rummage sale today. However most of the traffic today was looky-loos. Did not buy from anyone. Alot of us that made money made it off each other. Vendors buying from Vendors. Hell I even bought from some vendors, my daughter wanted a kite and some designer thing, which I got both for $4.00. But I also bought 5 Books for $5.50 to resell. As well as bought 8 DVDs for $10.00 again for resell.

So it was a long long long drawn out day, not making much money. Two of my buddies were there so it past the time by, and we are all going to setup shop in a vacant lot next Saturday that gets a hell of a lot of traffic.

Jross, how come you comment on TC but not me  :'(

On what? Your Page? If that is what you are referring to, dont take offense to it, nothing personal. I usually only had comments to blogs when I really feel like I need to speak out. And the one Story on his site that I commented on, felt like it should of been added on, which is why I made the comment on it like I did.

So again, if that is what you are referring to, I apologize, it is nothing personal.

:cheers: :)

If I knew how I convert a standard into an electric car, but I am not mechanically inclined :(

I for one right now am going to be holding all my scrap silver as well as gold. With prices just crashing like they are, its best if I hold on to it. The guy I usually go to to sell my scraps, for once since I been dealing with him paid me well below market. I got $25 less than I normally would with market prices, with the amount I had. Since I dealt with him it is the first time he bought below, he usually buys a slight bit higher than market, about 5% more.

Here's a good video, price of gas over the years.

Wow, and I can remember when gas was 99 cents a gallon. Loved it then. Loved the signs at the end. Arm, Leg, First Born.................omg wtf, lol.

I find knock off's all the time in my lockers. When i find them they go right in the trash bin.
I do not want to sell knock off's or fake products what so ever. I do NOT support that business.

Another thing with selling knock off's over state lines are a federal offense i think. And that carry's stiff penalties.
You don't want the FBI knocking on your door for a 40 dollar knock off purse.

REAL purses i sell, but it is not something that sells fast, purses are a hard sell.

Not to mention possible law suits from the trademark owners. And trust me, they will sue you for everything you got.

Even if you state it is not real, that it is a knock off?

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got my stuff early this morning. So now just waiting to go take it to a storage unit. I will never do any kind of business with family again. Def learned my lesson. Haha, and they wanted me to partner up with them and take them out to some auctions and split a unit. Glad I said NO to begin with. Imagine the headache then.

Reality Shows about Storage Auctions / Re: Dave Hester Auctions
« on: May 06, 2011, 08:12:38 AM »
THAT is certainly possible. It could also be true of Auction Hunters. The last half dozen posts or so kind of went off on a tangent from the original intent of this thread which was to  simply show the Dave Hester website, but sometimes threads take on a life of their own.


That would be my fault, but all I was stating is that I originally thought he was fake.

Please tell me there isn't a trailer home & beer involved in this story as well. Were you'll watching Jerry Springer when this happened?

As far as the storage lien is concerned, good luck. You would have to send them notice and file all kinds of paperwork, it could take months. Just call the cops and go to their house to get your merchandise. Then tell them if they want to keep their car, they need to make arrangements to have it removed from your property. If after a week or so they still haven't removed it, you may have grounds to seek a storage lien. Hey, thanks for the post on the blog by the way.



lol, no sorry, there is no trailer home and beer involved.

Actually I had already contacted the cops, they told me there was nothing they can do, since I dont own that house. They told me the only thing I can do about my stuff is to take it to a small claims civil court.

NP, I hope you enjoyed my long post on the blog :)

General Storage Auction Talk / Quick question
« on: May 05, 2011, 11:15:09 PM »
Currently I have been using a different house to store all my stuff. Just today me and my in-laws had it out over their dogs that I been keeping in my yard for them. Needless to say I through those dogs out. However my stuff (which is well over $1000 in inventory) is inside this house. They wont let me get my stuff out now. However to add to this, I have their car in my back yard as well. If I dont get my stuff back I am planning on seeing if I cant get the car sold and re-cooperate my lost inventory. They dont pay me for storage cost, just like I dont pay them storage cost. So legally can I do this?

There was an auction 30 miles away from me yesterday with three lockers and I decided not to go because of gas prices.  :(

Taxidermy, already tried that business with a buddy of mine years ago.

Taxidermy seems complicated, like you need years of experience to get animals to look alive.

People do not do their homework before they bid, even if it is in their convience. Right now 1 Gram of 24Karat gold's market value is a little over $45. However these people have already bidded on it making it over $100.
