Oviously, I'm the only one out there hunting, based on the lack of replies, and the fact that I keep finding all the "good stuff", lol.
Today, I found a bag of 85 souveneir spoons for $20. Most are old, and two are sterling, so I'm already in the black. If I get even a buck a piece for the other 83, that'll give me a 400% ROI. I'll take that any day.

Posted on: April 13, 2011, 01:39:31 PMHello went out again this morning to find more stuff for the grandbaby and ran across these Cups for $0.25, they are pre wwII and are Japenese tea mugs.
.25 cents a piece according to Kovels.com there worth about $ 10.00 a piece. Not a bad score for the day!!
