TODAY'S HUNT

I got up early today and did a little hunting. I found a few things that I plan on putting on ebay. I'm getting a little tired of ebay,I believe they are playing games with sellers. There are a million search one ebay everyday,you can post a good item for sell,for seven days. So how is it that somethings at the end of the sell you have only 3 people who looked at your item,I find that hard to believe. Oh well here is a few items I found today.

FAVORITE SPOT

I haven't been on the trail in a while but that will change tomorrow morning,getting a early start and heading to my honey spot. This is a thrift store that understands it is a thrift store and not K-mart or something. They have plenty of good picks and the prices are right,like in low. Okay happy hunting. I'm posting a couple of things I have gotten on another outing.

ALWAYS STOP AND CHECK


I was out paying some bills and checking up on a old business friend of mines. There is a Goodwill store down the street that I stop in all the time. On my last visit I did came up with anything but I have found some high end vintage bikes in there. I was trying to get home and say to myself the hell with stopping there isn't anything in there anyway,but something told me to go back. As I enter the door there was a half off sign posted,I say oh great I know I will never find something,well I head over to the bike section and there it was a nice vintage Specialized road bike in need of some TLC.love it bikes is my thing. I got this nice bike for 15.00 bucks,unreal. With a mild restore job this bike should bring 275.00 e-z.  Remember always check.

OLD DUSTY PACKED STORES



In by travels I see a lot of nice resell stores, the ones I like are the old dusty jam pack stores,ran my a little old grandma type. I love to dig thru the piles of overlooked items. Must resellers go the the nice neighborhoods in hopes of finding that gem,this is good but if you want to find the treasures.sometimes you got to get down and dirty. Go into the bad areas and not so bad areas, place were most pickers won't go. But if you are a true reseller and picker you already know this. Here are a few items I found in a little dirty shop.it is full of nice things and  I plan on going back and do some serious buying

DIY LIGHT BOX

One thing that helps your item to sell is a nice clear picture. Sometimes lighting is a big problem. Having a light box is a must. Some of these boxes can run you a few dollars,being the guy that I am I built my own. It was cheap to make. I used a old cardboard box and some gift wrap paper. It works really well. Its not pretty but it works,here is a picture of a chest I took in it, I took the picture with just room light I don't use the lights that  I have for it.The lights,which are simple table lights will go on the sides and top when needed.
