Good luck to you. Hope you find a bunch of good stuff. I believe those long earrings with a ball on the ends are Silpada. The will have a double arrow hallmark on them if your not familiar with them. Probably $35-50.

I’m leaving next month drive to South Carolina for 15 days. My plan is to bring a trailer home full of stuff so we will see!

The day through Utah was a bust today, I stuck along the interstate (always the kiss of death for picking) and didn't find anything really worthwhile, saw some scrap silver here and there but there wasnt enough margin left in it to make it worthwhile.

Last stop of the day was a couple thrift stores Just accross the Idaho border. Found this Cutco #24 carver for $1. I have a few matching pieces at home, once I complete the set I will send them all in to Cutco for refurb before selling.

I use to have AZ as a territory. Flagstaff had some good antique and junk shops. Also a few pawn shops to hit there. I found a vintage ladies Jaeger-LeCoultre in one they sold me for $90. I think? Gold wasn't vauled back then like today, but still recall I quadrupled my money on that watch.

I guess I should have told you, thrift stores in Boise, Idaho have raised their prices to outrageous levels, I think due to a massive influx of Californians and Texans. The quality of the items for sale however don't match the inflated prices.
