<p>[QUOTE=&quot;pearlsnblume, post: 4492615, member: 141&quot;]I&#039;ve only done my shopping on Long Island. Been doing it for 20 plus years.</p><p>It is pretty much hit and miss here. We don&#039;t really have antique stores near me, but we do have thrift shops and many estate sales and tag sales.</p><p>There are a few church thrift shops that get a lot of new stock and want to move it quickly so the prices are great.&nbsp; Some garage sales are good because they are moving and just want to move the stuff out of the house. When I see a print out of an ebay item on a table, I know they are going to ask high prices.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some estate sales are good, others the prices are simply insane. I picked up a cookbook last weekend and asked how much it was. The person told me $5 to which I replied I will give you $2</p><p><br /></p><p>She said some of the cookbooks are worth hundreds. I said, well this one is not one of those. I said how about $3 and she said ok.&nbsp; I have never sold a cookbook for hundreds of dollars. Some may exist but I would say that is pretty rare.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
