Just saying your channel name should be goodwill hunting !!! ❤🎉

The blue and gold dish above Winnie The Pooh was Delft from Holland. That would have been a good pick up.

at 16:40 that might have been pink depression glass. Here are a few things I would be on the look out for, you can look these up so you know what you are looking for. 1) Pink depression glass 2) wedgewood ( I scored two small plates last week, $12 for both, they are rare limited editions for Valentines day from 1990 and 1984, the last one is even more rare with a blue border vs the typical white. These are on Etsy for $150++ each 3) Shorter and sons, shorter ware anemone pattern ( this is shaped like cabbage so very easy to spot) 4) Royal Albert ,Royal Copenhagen, and basically any china stamped made in England 5) tupperware vintage - super desireable 6) Pyrex- vintage 7)corningware- vintage I just listed a few things that I feel are really easy to spot, they jump out at you. Like the wedgewood, once you know what that looks like it will stand out to you, same goes with the Shorter ware, the pink depression glass, etc. Hope this helps.

We just had a Goodwill open near me. I've never been in one of those stores, but TBH, I'm kind of horrified by the stuff and the prices. It just seems like a lot of junk, all priced astronomically high! If you're interested in hard goods at cheap prices, you should seriously consider going in person to an antiques auction. Not the super high-end ones, but the vintage-y (and yes, junk) ones. You can get box lots where one thing buried in it will make the $5 you pay (when you're lucky) a bargain. I got a late 19th century flow blue dresser set (with a hair receiver) in a box lot for $25. The auctioneer winked at me and said, you got a good buy. Boy, was he ever right; I sold it on ebay for over $225.

@@IisaStevens I don’t know if this will help, but the best way I’ve found to get to know what’s good and what’s not is to find something YOU really like and start collecting it. Then take a trip to the library and get some books dealing with collecting the thing you like. Along the way you’ll start picking up tons of info on other items you didn’t even know existed. I have really eclectic collections of antique pottery, all I got interested in for different reasons (early 20th century pottery made in my town which is relatively rare because I’m interested in my town’s history; early to mid 19th century English and Chinese pottery I just loved, etc.) I learned about tons of other pottery just by collecting the stuff I personally loved. Going to museums is another good way to learn. It’s also a good way to find what’s valuable; i.e., some lightweight pottery has value, like bone china. In fact, once upon a time, heavy pottery was considered clunky and crude.

whoop whoop, first !!! That rarely happens :)
