Message:: [QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 2583143, member: 10944"]I recently became more aware of vintage perfume prices and have my eye open. I check the bathroom too, you never know. Not that sterling brushes are all that valuable but I found a great one one day for like $1 or so. Everyone assumed it was plated because the marks were very obscured. I’ll also grab sunscreen and bug spray sometimes for pennies on the dollar. This weekend I went to a sale where everything was overpriced. I tried to make deals on like 5 things that most of the estate sale runners would have accepted. It was end of sale and this guy had all of his best stuff still sitting there because he was too adamant about getting top dollar. 8 souvenir sterling spoons, his best price.....$80! That’s with one minute left in sale. They were not even very good ones. Anyways the one thing I got was a 3/4 full bottle of the Aveeno lotion I use. It was discontinued and actually sells high on eBay. I told him that kind of as a joke and he was literally going to try to charge me an eBay based price. I told him the most he was getting was $2 and that was the only deal we made for the day. The other $1200 I offered to spend wasn’t enough.[/QUOTE]
