I like that check book cover. I just re-listed a Sears vintage "like new" cassette recorder/player. Only got 4 views the first time around, hopefully yours does better if you decide to sell it.
 
Ya I thought the check book cover was really cool also. Alligator sells really well on the bay so hoping to get some good money for it...just got back from a TON of local sales so hopefully I'll post later
 
Yeah cool checkbook for sure. Funny, I went to a ghetto sale today myself. House must have been sitting for a while. Looked like mice chewed on a lot of things. Still did alright though.

Nice buys. Thanks for sharing...
 
Thanks guys- The sale itself wasn't bad , but the 400 lb lady with no bra on running the sale was haha! Anything of real value had already been picked through before the sale it appeared. Luckily I found the gator and when the paints sell (already listed) I should make out quite nicely. Below is the Rolliecord camera I scored, will post in a separate thread as well!

Estate Sale Rule #2: get there early.

Still, for 7$ all in, you should show a gain.
 
I try to get to them early but would rather hit some GS than stand in line. Also what I was eluding to is that the behemoth of a lady running the sale had picked out anything of value before the sale. Could be wrong but hats the feeling I got

Go with your gut. You called it "ghetto" and now I get what you mean.
Ive never been to kne where I KNOW it's been cherry picked, but I've seen em where I hadda wonder.

Still, the Rule of Three oughta work out on your 7$. I love it.
