Fuck me, no7 is absolutely incredible. Imagine a fragile vase making it through both brother's and sister's cat and dog relationship for 20 years or more, it had survived their pillow fights and tennis balls flying through the room, the 1980's punk parties with that one special friend who drinks and smashes things around, the family cat chasing light reflexions, countless house improvements by a handful of plumbers and wallpaper men, decades of weekly dusting by your parents shaky old hands, in their late years with hands semi-paralysed by arthritis, you got the picture, right, and after both your parents deaths you discover that the old piece of crap which was sitting modestly on the mantel all this time was worth 54 million Sterling Pounds... It's simply disturbing!

+GorillaProduction38 It had survived more than that. England in 2nd World War, German air raids... And now imagine: Instead of realizing what this antique was the siblings could have easily thought that it was just an ugly old vase and instead of having it checked by an expert thrown it into the dumpster while cleaning out the house. It seriously makes you wonder about the treasures that end up in the trash can. I remember one find in a German TV show, two rusted old Porsches (one of the very first and a younger one), the owner wanted about 10,000 Euros for both, as far as I remember. Two salesmen came, checked them out and declined. Then a guy from the Porsche Museum came, checked the cars, declined the younger one and offered 100,000 Euros for the older one. Turned out that the older one was a rare Porsche 901, only 82 of these were built before they were renamed to Porsche 911 and the Porsche Museum themselves didn't have one.

I would be the guy that bought something for $5, and sold it for $20, thinking I made a great deal. Then seeing it at auction for $20 million. My life...... Lol

This video makes me feel better about myself. My family always thinks that I'm wasting my time going to garage/yard/estate sales.

There is a television show called Antique Roadshow. A woman in my town purchased a painting from Goodwill for about 70-80 Dollars US.The t.v show came to our town and she took the painitng to them to be examined. She found out it was a lost piece of artwork worth well over 100,000 dollars US. The funny thing is the second hand shop (Goodwill) she bought it from wanted either the painting back of the actual value given to them. Needless to say they didn't get either.

Each of these stories deserves a 1-hour documentary ... so many questions!

Actually, the Jackson Pollock painting was purchased in a thrift store. Teri was going to sell it at a yard sale when it would not fit in the home of the friend she was going to give it to. A local art teacher saw it and told her it might be an original. The forensic investigator also found a matching partial matching print on a photo of a Jackson Pollock painting in an art book. pretty amazing. Jackson Pollock's brother used to live in southern california not that far from where the thrift store was located.

I find these kinda stories pricelessly fascinating!!

I'm looking at Salisbury cathedral right now I live like 20mins away from it :D

Thank you so much for the update on the Jackson Pollock picture. There’s been much speculation about that painting over the years and I’m so happy to know they were able to find the fingerprint proving it genuine. I admire that woman’s perseverance and a good taste in art work.

I picked up a massive collection of NES-SNES games from an off the beaten path yard sale that had a small pile of Wii games like Zelda, Smash, Mario Kart. I asked for older stuff and was told to come back tomorrow. Well the next day I went back and was shocked to see 2 large bins FULL of NES and SNES carts waiting for me =) I looked at the snes stuff and knew it was unpicked from before 2000. (Mighty Final Fight, Demon;s Crest, Super Metroid) I didnt even look at the NES games. I bought them all and did an unboxing video of the NES games that same day. (See my vids) All in all I got 160 SNES games, 220 NES games and a few random PS1 RPGs.

I went to a flea market once, some guy had old silver coins that I was looking at buying. When I asked him the price, he told me they cost face value of the coins. I was shocked. So silver dollars cost me a dollar, silver quarters cost me a quarter, and so on. I spent about thirty bucks and when silver prices skyrocketed, I sold them and made over $400. Not a bad turnover.

So I have a (1755) Swedish hope chest beautifully built and painted in a gorgeous blue and rusty red colors with my Great (x6 times) Grandma’s name and year- artfully painted across the face with very intricate paint work. Some areas natural wood grain shows and not painted but stained letting grain show. Inside perfect condition cedar? With a built in storage box on one end with sewing kit, thimbles, and pieces of fabrics and doilies etc probably as old as the trunk. I’ve only googled to find similar and I’ve found almost exact construction it has an arched top. Top of the trunk is curved/arched. I found prices of auction sold examples as high as 60k. I did not look into this until highlight videos from those traveling road shows were recommended in my suggested videos feed. Yes, a family heirloom but really no one to leave it to that would sell it before my funeral so I might as well take further steps to investigate this incredible chest.
