Michael just got to get the bags, yeah, I'm sorry for the confusion. We're going to put a sign on the door, see about that.

"Estate Sale Adventures and Thrilling Finds"

Michael and I recently embarked on an exciting day of estate sale shopping. The anticipation was high as we parked outside the quaint little store. The aroma of old books and vintage treasures filled the air, signaling endless possibilities. I couldn't wait to explore and unearth hidden gems to flip on eBay.

We walked in and immediately noticed the sign we'll put on the door's new sign, probably to inform visitors of today's sales. Sakura, this is epic! The first thing that caught my eye was a Willay Studio item. It’s such a good brand, and I was thrilled to have found it.

Michael found a fabulous chance item from 2016. We've never found one before, so it was quite a discovery! I also stumbled upon a teapot and some basic but cute 10 pieces that seemed worthwhile. Further exploration led to an array of intriguing figurines including hippos and owls.

I then got my hands on some fun T-shirts. One said, “Get in loser, we're getting tacos.” What a slogan! I searched the racks for my size and finally found an extra large. I also considered grabbing multiple shirts to list on eBay; the Halloween-themed shirt really caught my attention.

In another section, Michael found a cast iron cat, which was priced at only $ 2. He couldn’t resist picking it up—it was just too cool!

Next, we explored more mugs and a Cattails mug set from Gary Patterson, essentially a collector’s dream. The sign studio pottery also intrigued me, and I couldn't miss the mini paperweight with the purple hues which was signed on the bottom. While continuing our treasure hunt, I found some Costa Rican feather art pieces painted intricately with native animals.

We came across a box containing a brand new amp wiring kit, rated at 1,400 watts. It’s enough for a high-end audio setup, and we couldn’t resist checking its price.

"Further Findings"

Our estate sale adventure didn't stop there. We discovered some unique silhouettes from Peter Watson, which were reverse painted on glass, depicting a hugging pair. At another corner, we found exquisite Waterford crystal pieces. Priced at $ 15 each, these were worth investing in despite being second-day items, meaning some had already been picked over. We decided to take our chances and grab these precious finds.

We made our way to another estate sale and found some more exciting pieces, including a velvet art piece and vintage skirts. However, some of these items had stains, and we cautiously avoided those.

Descending into the large basement, I found a large reverse painted art piece for $ 25, although it showed signs of damage. Navigating through more treasures, we stumbled upon a clock crafted from wood and some vintage doll furniture.

Lastly, we ventured into a warehouse sale, uncovering some uranium glass items. Although some were chipped, others were intact, so we decided to pick selectively. An older Santas face and a charming little Whimsle TV screen also drew our attention.

Michael pointed out a unique find: a Buyers Choice Christmas Carol piece priced at $ 20, with a potential resale value of $ 40-$ 60.

Our day ended on a high note of discovering and carefully selecting items to flip. Each piece, from figurines to T-shirts to vintage crystal, held promise for profit and added another chapter to our estate sale adventures.
