estate sale jackpot

[jochart]

went to a family run estate sale this morning and bought up the gold and silver jewelry, watches and a few junk coins. I was in shock at the prices, I paid $65 for everything. the gold alone totals about $1200 in melt. The 18k chain and anchor is a real beauty. the sale was only a minute from my house and I had the place to myself for about the first 10 minutes. best sale of the year for me by far.

absolutely NOTHING better than a family-run estate sale. You know, when the stuff is literally being carted out of the house and thrown on the lawn and they let you pick through every nook and cranny of the house. That's my happy place.

GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!
