Round 1 my finds so far this weekend......

[Love It Twice 2009]

Hi Everyone!
Thought I'd share my first round of finds for the weekend. I hit it hard first thing Friday morning and beat down 8 garage sales and 1 estate sale in about 7 hours. My total spent for the day was $111.75. I think I did pretty well, but I will let you guys be the judge. Here's the cost breakdown:

Pink candy dish (not sure what it is, no markings, looks like depression glass to me) .75 cents

Antique woodworking tools (6) $50.00

Brinkmann Pro Dual Zone Charcoal Grill/Smoker $25 (needs cleaned up a little, but they retail for $199)

Craftsman 22' electric hedge trimmer new $10.00

Mamiya 35 mm camera $10.00

Panasonic pv-1678 Vhs-C camcorder$10.00

Brass/Bronze Eagle Bookends (very cool) $6.00

If anyone wants to see pics, let me know and I'll post'em

I've got two estate sales lined up for the morning and a massive community sale that is over a mile long after that

The wood tools. I think they are 30's/40's age wise but not sure.

Dish is modern but a good purchase.The old wood planes was a good hit.

Try putting how much the book ends weigh on your auction. Also, maybe try starting it at .99 and see what happens. I just learned that you can "end the auction early" if it isn't going the way you wanted it to go.

 

[jamey]

can you end it if someone has already bid jerseyben?

 

[Nickleanddime]

Yes you can end them even if someone has bid. You might get a repercussion if you end say 9 out of 10 early. Really the only time a early ending is needed after a bid is if you break/lose a item or there was a problem in the listing that might cause problems in the end with the buyer.
