Post your $1 (or less) Finds Here w/ Sold For Prices

Picked this up at a sale a while back, The guy I bought it from had it in a pile of empty boxes, he was surprised I even wanted it. I don't think he included it in his final price for me, so I think that counts as a Dollar or less if he though it was trash. Just sold for 39.99+shipping to someone through the GSP, by the name I'm guessing it's going back to Japan.

I found a item in a bag of old jewelry at a yard sale for a buck. Most of it wasn't much but I cleaned this watch fob up and sold it for 29.99. It turned out so pretty

One of my favorite finds!

Here is one of my favorite finds that I purchased for one dollar.. It is a pastel sketch of a trout from 1902, with original frame & glass it is considered "Folk Art".. I had it aprraised at the " Antique Roadshow" years , years back... The value was at 1k to 1.5k....love fishing, so not for sale.... Enjoy!

Expanding on my new found love of plastic kids toys - - got this for $1 today. I honestly was amazed at what these retail for new. This model is discontinued and yet still lists for $75.00 + on Amazon. I grew up in the 80's and had a hard time begging $5.00 from my parents for toys. :P

Great finds everyone. Keep it going. I haven't been listing too much lately but I did sell these 3 packs of vintage envelopes with NYC scenes depicted on them for a total of $36 recently, gave free shipping though. They cost me $1 for all 3 packs-

Hey Sterling, what are the measurements on that? My maternal great-grandmother worked in oil paints & pastels, with a focus on one of the most pristine parts of the TX gulf coast; her daughter, my mom's mom, worked in paints and colored pencil, and they both did some work stylistically & thematically similar to this. Anyway my mom's been taking art classes and since she is a great fisherwoman and into drawing/painting trout/reds/blue crabs etc I sent her a pic & your story for inspiration. Hope you don't mind, she loved it!

Womp-womp, Beach (that's the sad trombone for anyone who was wondering I avoid disappointment by sticking to BINs, can't remember the last time I ran an auction.

Here's a couple recent ones, bought this vintage Mossy Oak Camo shirt at a goodwill bulk place, by weight so it probably cost me about a dollar, sold it for $39.99 + shipping.




Here's a pyrex measuring cup, $1 on half off day at an estate sale. Fun fact, if you find these with closed handles that means they're old, and for whatever reason that makes them worth something to someone, I've found several of these and I always can sell them for $20. This one was no different, $19.99 + shipping.

Vietnam era military clothes are real popular. I buy what I can find but they are rare, which for us is a good thing. I have a pair of Type one OG 107 army pants, but the size is faded out which hurts selling it. The best I can do is give tape measurements.
