Nice video! Good job saving it all too. I've had to scrap a lot of the stuff I have found over the years, but have kept some of the better items. Thanks for sharing!!

If he hasn't sold any of it yet, than he hasn't realized a gain on his investment, and no tax is owed.

Considering the stupid cuts to the IRS in the last few years, I doubt they have time to check Ebay, and so on for sales under $20,000 (the reporting threshold), much less surfing YouTube looking for a few thousand is gold. Every dollar spent in enforcement brings in $6 of additional revenue. Yep, lets cut them...

Never gonna sell it anyway. Keeping it all as a hedge.

Smart idea. It never hurts to have a little something put aside for a rainy day. Great job finding all that! :)

Thank you! I actually found some more today. 1.67 grams of 22k and 1.28 grams of 14k. Not much but only paid $2. It all adds up over time.

I've spent the last hour watching YouTube videos of jewelry people that have found jewelry at yard sales. 95% of them have totally sucked so I had to watch yours again! I just want to share two of my favorites that I have found and kept. Both are 18 karat gold women's watches. The first one the thicker of the two I paid $5 for. the second one I paid $400 for. Which I have online. Probably too much but I'm not to worried! Happy hunting!

I thought we didn't talk politics here. :icon_scratch:

I'm glad you enjoy my video! I'll be uploading a Silver one soon. Those are nice watches! I haven't found any gold watches yet, hopefully I will soon one day.

"...I doubt they have time to check Ebay, and so on for sales under $20,000 (the reporting threshold), much less surfing YouTube looking for a few thousand is gold."

Regarding the above portion of the post, I agree with you, Treasure Hunter. That portion is on topic. However, the following portions of the post are political opinion:

"Considering the stupid cuts to the IRS in the last few years..."

"Every dollar spent in enforcement brings in $6 of additional revenue. Yep, lets cut them..."

One of the reasons I like this forum so much is the absence of politics. Political commentary (especially the snide and sarcastic variety) seems to permeate everything these days. Such talk is refreshingly absent here. I hope it remains that way.
