Best Finds I Have Had In Entire Life! Thousands of Dollars Worth Of Merchandise!

[Jebus]

Guys I have been diving for over 2 years now, and hit the BEST jackpot I have ever seen last night at B&N! I literally found thousands of dollars worth of perfectly good merchandise!

I had to break videos down into multiple parts just to go through it all! Here is the first video, literally probably $1,000 worth of stuff in this video alone!

There are plenty of eyes in the Dumpster Diving sub-forum, we've learned to keep our mouths shut. Diving is lucrative and most of us don't want company.

I guess I just see it more as a fun hobby than an actual money making method.

I click your posts and look at the screen shot of the video to see what you found. I dont watch the videos tho as most DD videos are similar. I used to DD and found some cool stuff in an old Coconuts music store dumpster and some pots and pans and a fake ficus tree in my old apartments dumpster. Oh ya and nudie mags.

Keep doing what youre doing if you like it.

Also what video editing software do you use?

The only difference; Non Detected Items cannot earn Banner

Jeff-not try to stir things up or cause trouble, just want clarification on your bolded statement about what qualifies for the banner. There is currently a bottle found with an old note in it that obviously wasn't detected, so I am confused. BTW I agree that it belongs there, I just want clarification on your statement and the rules.

I think it was detected as it was 5-6" down and had an aluminum stopper or something attached to the cork.

Theres a lot of judgement on this post, but remember that treasure is in the eye of the beholder.

There is no written rule that banner finds have to be found with a metal detector. Don't know why jeff would say that. http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/438336-banners-how-they-work.html#post4246818

If the post is one of the members first posts, it is less likely to be selected.

Finds must look good in the banner.

Members campaigning for votes for themselves or others ruins threads.
Do Not Do IT !

New Members are not Eligible for banner . if your find & your membership are within 90 Days of each other, we reserve the right to say No. too soon.
we want to be sure Members are signing up here to share & not because someone told them If they sign up quick, They can get their find on our Banner. Sorry !

Find must be found by a current TNet individual, YOU.

Making matters worst, is nominating your own find for the banner.

We don't count the word "Banner" in a Post only the ones in Reports.


We prefer "Rare to the Banner Finds" not necessarily "Rare according to the Books"

If you see one like yours up there now, it is not rare to the banner

​

I'm not here to start trouble either but posting youtube videos is nothing but clickbait as far as I'm concerned, regardless if it is embedded.
While I'm at it, we have a forum dedicated for videos also... Treasure Hunting & Metal Detecting Videos

 

[SultansOfSwing]

I actually just record on my GoPro, and put the clips together on Movie Maker lol

How do you make the screen shots for the video with the pictures and words? I cant seem to figure how to do that on windows movie maker. I gotta use separate programs

I wasn't trying to-I just wanted clarification for a comment that you made in his post. Again, not trying to make waves.

 

[Jebus]

How do you make the screen shots for the video with the pictures and words? I cant seem to figure how to do that on windows movie maker. I gotta use separate programs

I use Photoshop to make my thumbnails, and Movie Maker to edit them.

 

[Aureus]

I don't see what the fuss is all about. I don't DD but I remember finding a nice early photograph that someone put on the side of the street. I did post it in Today's finds http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/551737-mid-1800-s-photograph-notman-sandham-studio-my-non-detecting-find.html . I don't remember anyone telling me it didn't belong there.

How many times I read posts where people are excited to find 18th - 19th century dump sites...I know I am. And how many times you guys were judged by people for digging in the dirt for a copper coin or a button.... I know I was.

I agree with Scrappy, treasure is in the eye of the beholder. Let the guy do what he likes.

 

[scruggs]

Nice going!

UGGING UNREAL....

Thank you man! Agreed! If you love what you're doing, and love what you're finding, then it's treasure to you!

Nice going!

Thanks you!

 

[CoinRoller]

FWIW, I don't need anyone to arbitrate on my behalf what I want to read or view. I dabble in metal detecting, coin rolling, and yes, dumpster diving. You made a great haul and were kind enough to share it. And I thank you

If only it was that simple for everyone else lol Thanks for the hospitality!

 

[Jaysix]

Awesome haul. Its amazing what gets thrown out on a daily basis. Most of that stuff could have been donated to orphanages or something for kids who have nothing. Same thing happened when I delivered for a certain gas station/convience store chain. All the premade sandwiches and donuts were thrown in the dumpster at night (500+ stores in the chain). I asked them why they wouldnt give them to say a homeless shelter or even farms and they said that they made more money throwing it away and writing it off as a loss.
