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.
