I'll be going there tommorrow, it starts at 3 pm. This sale is being held by a lady that does estate sales but she isn't really a professional. All her sales are in the same retirement community. It's listed as starting on Saturday on Craigslist but i'm on her mailing list ,so she emails all her regulars for a Friday sale. I've made money more than once on items purchased from her sales.

Diggum,

I can't seem to get the pics to open. I do have a problem with some files so it may be this computer.

[SeaninNH]

I can't get them to load either.

I see those race tracks maybe depends on how old an same with the wedgewood

[diggummup]

Yeah I saw the track but it's a "newer" one from around the late 90's I think. $10 is the most i'll do on that. I see the wedgeood jasperware but it doesn't seen to be selling too well on Ebay. I listed a 10 piece lot (including 2 with the boxes) for $39.99 and didn't even get a single watcher much less a bid. Meanwhile i've seen the lidded tobacco jar (one of the pieces in my lot) sell for more than that by itself before.
I don't get it.

it's all to due with age Diggum an it is pretty confusing to remember how to age them cause it's all pretty much the same. I am pretty sure most are items are remade in mostly every era..so the key is to learn the hallmarks to age them...

in the picture with the wine racks... there is a statue bending backwards, get that for sure.

on the table with all the glassware I see a Torah, might be worth getting
the blue bowls with silver are nice too

the big silver swan on the table with the video recorder

a lot of the prints and paintings are nice, worth looking into

the beer stein and crystal decanter is worthwhile getting

tools are always a good seller

some of the vases, plates and figurines are collector items

the mechanics tool box for sure

[Produce Guy]

Did you see that?,5 coffee makers,wow!!

[bazinga]

I don't see a whole lot that would get me too excited, but then again, I'm lazy and picky these days. And viewing this from a tiny laptop monitor doesn't help.

But what I do see:

Pyrex Primary Colors Mixing Bowls
Possibly some Wedgewood

[hombre_de_plata_flaco]

Silver-looking brush in the 3rd pic. Statue in the 4th pic. Possibly a Super 8 or 16mm film video camera in the 8th pic. Wooden tennis racket pic 20. Decanters and stein pic 21. Pic 22 penguin & fish decanters. Old saw pic 27. Pic 42 toolboxes. Old scissors pic 44. Pic 53 need better photo of golf clubs.

I would also check out the blue bowls w/silver, the swan bird statue thingy and the silver looking duck. And I love jewelery so I'd definitly look through that! Have fun and hope you find some treasures! It looks like a lot of stuff there to go through.

[apush]

Looks like there could be some good pickens there. Hope you make lots of $$$$ on the flip side!

I like that cool penguin that is sitting beside the small TV....Looks like a lot of neat barware, too, diggummup. I also saw a lot of nice linens---But I don't think those are doing too well on eBay right now(We sell the crap out of linens in my sisters shop, though!). Seems like I saw where stainless cookware is selling pretty good, also, and it looks like there's quite a bit of that. I like all the tools---Look for woodworking tools or drafting tools--I always go to the garage or shop buildings first, seems like everyone gets tired after pricing stuff in the house and they just start hurrying through the garage stuff---there might be some 'sleepers' in those tools for you!
That was pretty neat seeing those pictures---Kinda like a virtual garage sale! I hope you get lots and lots and its really cheap!

[Chug And Red]

There were a few Items that Caught My attention Not really Interested Unless i can See them Up close!!!! I'm not a Golfer But take a close look at the Clubs They can Bring in the Bucks for the Right Clubs!!!! HH Chug

[OldSowBreath]

Those big red shop toolboxes in pic 42. If you can get them cheap, they should sell quickly on Craigslist.

[Beans]

I did not see any but check for LEGOs. Even with out the box they sell.

The racetracks look interesting. I'm heading to one tomorrow morning.http://www.auctionzip.com/cgi-bin/ph...zip=15601&kwd= I'm really interested in the cigarette case, because if it is actually what I think it is, It has some neato history behind it. couple of nice westmoreland pieces.
anything else jump out?

[diggummup]

Well, I went, huh, huh, huh, what a joke. I got there 40 minutes before start time. Sale was in full motion when I got there. The main thing I saw in all that junk was an Art Deco cocktail shaker made by Chase. Guess what... it was gone already. I ended up buying a yellow pyrex bowl large $3, a wedgwood lighter $5, 5 small salt & peppers all the same design, can't make out the mark yet $.50 each, a vintage, 1 vintage desk model mercury Sphygmomanometer $5, a ceramic frog bank (my sis collects frogs so) with 2 quarters in it $2 (or $1.50 depending on how you look at it) and 2 rolld of 2 in. wide masking tape .50 each. I hate when people start selling an hour earlier than the time they listed.

It all looks pretty good to me. We just don't have those types of auctions down here. I wish we did. I collect postcards so that's a no brainer. Also, i'm a sucker for Fire-King, That cigarette case is an early Nazi piece, good luck it'll probably sell pretty high. I like the sterling match safe even though it's engraved.I would lean to this photo too-

HARRISON COMMANDER RECEPTION & TRAINING CENTER, LESLIE'S PHOTOGRAPHIC REVIEW OF THE GREAT WAR (1920), Good luck.

Glad you got a few items diggummup! Mine was a waste of time... prices were driven absolutely crazy high. The cigarette case was an early Nazi piece and went for over $800. people driving the fire king prices up to $80 bucks. I'll hunt it down much lower than that at garage sales... I ended up leaving about an hour and a half in to it.
