I bought a handmade ship in a bottle at a yard sale for $5 and sold it on ebay to a guy in france for $150. The ship had some markings on it so maybe he knew something I didnt.

My best find was a Bob Dylan red vinyl Dee jay label of "Blowing in the wind" for a buck. Sold it on eBay for $210.

Found and bought an old watch at a yard sale for $1. Had a cheap Spiedel band on it. But the watch was a 14K gold case Omega ( has the Omega Watch Company logo, case number, 14k gold, and serial number all inside). I wear it daily.
