Really enjoy your channel. You always make it interesting. I can see why the store is changing. The cost in time and money is no longer necessary. You can do so much on your own without it. Either way you always succeed. I totally support your decision. You made the a reasonable choice - to sell - you always have a good reason. Here’s to your happiness and continued success 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
It’s your life Alexander! You can choose to change it any way you see fit and no one can comment negatively unless they are you because this life and these changes belong only to you and your family and no one else unless they live inside you!!!!!! Lol keep yo the good work!!!!!
Alex, My Hubby & I look forward to watching your videos & have been enjoying the house build. We are excited to see what your future holds. Enjoy these times with your family while you're able to. You can always do antiquing & various other things, but you never get a 2nd chance with your family. Hope you, Melissa & the kids enjoy the rest of your life. We'll still be tuning in to watch. 😊
I am so used to the intro that I didn't even notice Alex had edited it to remove the store until I saw it in other comments. So smoothly done that it really din't change the flow. I was really surprised by yesterday's announcement, but like so many others I wish him and his family well.
That Chuck Wagon reminds me of when I was a little kid - back 100 years ago 😁 (early 70's) There were commercials for the dog food, Gravy Train that had a tiny Chuck wagon and tiny horses that would run around the floor when the dog was fed. It came right out of the bag!! We had a dog, Martha. When my parents feed her, I could never figure out why we didn't have the tiny horses like the commercial showed. My Mom would laugh when I asked and tell me it was special just for the commercials 😉
My sweet mother bought a Singer Sew Handy electric sewing machine for me when I was 8 years old. That was 60 years ago and I still have it. It's the most amazing Christmas gift from Santa that I ever got!
Alex...that is one I would repair and keep for your personal garage so you are always on time for family things while you are working on your current project in your new awesome home project garage..js
How ironic that you close this "collectible" portion of your life with the same item that started you out in this road - A top hat! Life can be so poetic sometimes. Looking forward to your new adventures.
Have enjoyed your channel so much. Often wondered how busy, busy, busy you are and how you kept going!! Wishing you and Melissa and your children all good things as you move on to new adventures. Hope you will take Austin's gift of the beautiful stained glass window with you!
Good to hear you enthusiastic about finds. The Federal republic of Germany started in 1949, The British zone had the Volkswagen factory and the British were not interested in it.
I like your clock too! The first thing is I'd want to protect the outer neon ring from damage, especially in a garage with power and air tools. Maybe a nice plexi domed frame would compliment it as well as protect it.
I had all of the Johnny West figures, and most of the accessories, when I was a kid! Whenever you show them in your videos, they trigger a lot of memories. Thanks for always putting a smile on my face.
Good morning!!! Yesterday was a bummer.... Glad ur still with us...... Not sure if u realize,,, ur one of the BEST.....!!!! ur still dealing with nasty weather n I'm enjoying 70s n 80s.... Nashville GA.....
I have a child’s sewing machine but mine is Casige with the British Zone on it. Mine has a clamp and also something that looks like an Allen key? Not sure what its used for. Thank you for the added info. Enjoying.
Such fun finds! Love the hot wheels and monster guys! That old suitcase, can totally see that in an old car! Love the sewing machine! That clock will look great in your garage!
My husband and I enjoy your videos and are regular watchers. We'll be continuing to watch as you start the next step of your journey going forward. All the very best to you and your family.
Oh my gosh, that tv is awesome! That would look cool in your basement. The clock would look good in your garage. As a young child I wanted hot wheel cars, I was never allowed as they were boys toys. My friend had some and we always built roads and houses for the cars.
Hey Alex, I had one of those Leather suit cases its strange as the handle was broken when I received it as well. But just last year it didn’t seem to move on my site so I put it on Market Place & had a buyer in the same week. I’m not sure what price you would sell it for but the buyer came around to $60. Did I do ok on that ? Cool Hot Wheels I had a miniature collection of old vintage classics - model T, Daimler, Rolls Royce & Cadillac Sold for $125 I was pleased about that. I just wanted to get into buying old furniture & finally fixing up a really sweet table & chairs. But now just selling stuff from odd boxes from an old barn that sells Antiques & some stuff they added which was quite modern - BBQ tools Brand New. I expect they will move come summer.
I see you made the changes to the intro. I enjoy watching you, Alex. I am glad you are making good changes for you and your family. Taking care of yourself is so necessary for "full" health. Bless you and your family. Your unboxing of treasures was fun to watch.
We are glad to see you spend more time with your family and change is hard but you made the right one. The last two years has been hard on every one even us, I lost my mom to covid last March 29th she was only 72 and it been hard for us. I still have my Old match box and hot wheels collection I will sell to you only .Just trying to plan how to do it, from Washington State to Edmonton . I have other old toys too. This could build your collection of hotwheels again. I'm selling of fmy toys to save for a small Rv to retire and see the country, my moms wishes for me. God Bless
I was aware of Johnny and Jane West because I had Jane and her horse and accessories, but I don't remember ever hearing about the other kits you found.
My brother and I had Jane and Johnny and their horses, Flame and Thunderbolt. I never knew there were any other figures but we had moved from the Los Angeles area to a small town on the Oregon coast where we had very limited television and few stores.
Nice shopping trip! I still have my Matchboxes in two cases that I received as birthday and Christmas presents up until perhaps 1972. I think the last one I received was a Hoovercraft. They are here with me. I will be 61 years old on Pearl Habor Day 2022.
Alex (my brother’s name) I am so excited for your new venture 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I know you are going to love spending time with your family, the children grow up so fast and time with Melissa is priceless. You are Curiosity Inc, you don’t have to have the store and now you have a beautiful home you can now enjoy not spending time at the store.❤️❤️❤️❤️ my son who is 38 LOVED his Hot Wheel collection, the tracks and about everything that went with Hot Wheels.
I started collecting metal toy sewing machines in the early 1970’s and own a number of Casige machines. The one you have has a beautiful decoration, different than any in my collection. Great find as is that neat old t.v. So many TH-cam videos are mid century decorators. Goes well with Pyrex. 🤣 I also loved all the cars. Lastly, I have too many clocks to count (not vintage) and that one you found is beautiful. Love to see the neon when it’s repaired as it would look spectacular in your new garage.
Alex, I enjoy watching your channel and being part of the group. Another TH-cam I enjoy watching is Salvage Hunters with Drew Pritchard. Not only is it exciting to see what he finds to buy or just admire, but a lot of the items need restoration which might be done in the same video. There are companion videos of just restoration. Anyway, you might enjoy doing something like he does.
I would love to see the whole sailboat picture we got a peak of in the background. I think it looks like a painting we had hanging in the house when I was a kid. I always loved it and don't know what happened to it. I'm curious who painted it.
Paint job on that german sewing machine was awesome. Had a honda cb750 chopper I built, wish I would have painted it those colors. Then painted the engine orange, wooo
I just want to say that you are brave to make a decision of selling your store, but I understand where you are coming from. There are times in our lives that we feel that we need to change direction. Good luck and have a wonderful time on your new adventures. I will continue to watch because I enjoy the finds you come across.
I love your channel so much! Thank you! Was a little bummed today because you got a JANE WEST DOLL and didn't bring her out of the Box. I adored that doll and haven't seen her since I got mine in 70's. (Or whenever i stopped playing with her)Lol!! I miss her and all her cool stuff. 🤠 Who knows what happened to her! Be safe!
Hiya Alex! I have tò tell you that you lòoked a bit more relaxed in this video and l hope you continue on in that state of being! My little sister had Jihnny West and he rode a brown horse with a black mane. I had a Jane West doll that wore a turqouis colored blouse and pamts with a hat, vest and boots that matched the palamino horse l got with her. Pretty cool memories you gifted me with this morning Alex, thank you for that! Take care everyone! Peace...♥︎

Yeah. I did a double take b/c 1970 was FIFTY TWO YEARS AGO! What??? I graduated high school in ‘72. Now I truly am older’n dirt!
I was born in 1955 and had my daughter at age 38. She asked me once if I was born in 1855. Almost.
LOL, same!
My sweet mother bought a Singer Sew Handy electric sewing machine for me when I was 8 years old. That was 60 years ago and I still have it. It's the most amazing Christmas gift from Santa that I ever got!
WOW ... that clock will be excellent in the garage ~ first class! Speechless about the TV, coolest thing ever!
Alex...that is one I would repair and keep for your personal garage so you are always on time for family things while you are working on your current project in your new awesome home project garage..js
The little sewing machine is so adorable!

Nice finds. The clock is cool. TFS ❣️
Nice! My fav is the German sewing machine! 😍 Beautiful!!! I want it!!!
Good to hear you enthusiastic about finds. The Federal republic of Germany started in 1949, The British zone had the Volkswagen factory and the British were not interested in it.
It wasn’t that they weren’t interested. It had to do with the Potsdam Agreement.
I like your clock too! The first thing is I'd want to protect the outer neon ring from damage, especially in a garage with power and air tools. Maybe a nice plexi domed frame would compliment it as well as protect it.
I had all of the Johnny West figures, and most of the accessories, when I was a kid! Whenever you show them in your videos, they trigger a lot of memories. Thanks for always putting a smile on my face.
Thank you ! I really enjoy just looking at your findings 💛
Oh my goodness I did not know there were Walton’s action figures and house!! I loved watching them, well and a crush on John Buy! 😊
Good morning!!! Yesterday was a bummer.... Glad ur still with us...... Not sure if u realize,,, ur one of the BEST.....!!!! ur still dealing with nasty weather n I'm enjoying 70s n 80s.... Nashville GA.....
Yes! There is a time and place for everything. Needless to say, any finds you show is an awesome one!
I'm excited for you on your new journey. Whatever you do, or how your dreams change, Destination matters. And you only reach it by a good journey.
OMG,, the TV what a fantastic find !!!!
Love the sewing machine. I bet some little girl learned to sew on her own little machine. God bless.
Freaking awesome toys....I hope he does keep the hot wheels...I wish I lived closer I would LOVE to own that TV ❤️❤️❤️
Awesome finds!! Thank you for bringing us along!! ❤️
I looked at the neon clock I said to myself, he better use that in his new shop/garage. Glad you are doing that lol
You have such a gift of knowledge of antiques …
Love the little sewing machine... had one similar as a child...
Great buys Brother Alexander. Love that Vintage stuff! Thanks always for sharing Your Adventures 😀 👍 ♥️ 🇨🇦🇺🇸🌎🎉🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉🎉💯💯💯💯
Keep it! It would look great in the downstairs rumpus room!
Between me and my cousins we had a huge Johnny West collection, but I never even knew there was a tepee! Love the graphics on that sewing machine.
best of the west figures so cool, Dangerous Dan was the name of the dark figure , and the blue figure was kernel Custer
I have a child’s sewing machine but mine is Casige with the British Zone on it. Mine has a clamp and also something that looks like an Allen key? Not sure what its used for. Thank you for the added info. Enjoying.
Very happy that you got some great collection cars!
That TV looks like it could be from the Jetsons!
So sorry to hear your going to sell your store. Will miss seeing your new goodies.
Love the tv and sewing machine!
Such fun finds! Love the hot wheels and monster guys! That old suitcase, can totally see that in an old car! Love the sewing machine! That clock will look great in your garage!
That hat is in excellent condition!!!
My husband and I enjoy your videos and are regular watchers. We'll be continuing to watch as you start the next step of your journey going forward. All the very best to you and your family.
Wow, so glad you are taking care of yourself and family. Looking forward to all your new ventures. 😇💕🌈🇺🇸👏👏👏
All toys my little boys played with before they grew up to be men. Very nostalgic for me. Love your channel!
OMG,,, beautiful sewing machine,,!!!!
❣️Really COOL finds in that BIG BOX❣️❣️❣️LOVE that neon CLOCK also! Thank you for sharing❣️
Oh my gosh, that tv is awesome! That would look cool in your basement. The clock would look good in your garage. As a young child I wanted hot wheel cars, I was never allowed as they were boys toys. My friend had some and we always built roads and houses for the cars.
Wow, I hope you get the neon working on that clock. I love the style of the numbers on it.
It doesn't matter to me as long as you and family share. I'm there . A true shining star in my world. Blessings
Awesome un boxing 🙂💫💞
Hey Alex, I had one of those Leather suit cases its strange as the handle was broken when I received it as well.
But just last year it didn’t seem to move on my site so I put it on Market Place & had a buyer in the same week.
I’m not sure what price you would sell it for but the buyer came around to $60.
Did I do ok on that ?
Cool Hot Wheels I had a miniature collection of old vintage classics - model T, Daimler, Rolls Royce & Cadillac
Sold for $125 I was pleased about that.
I just wanted to get into buying old furniture & finally fixing up a really sweet table & chairs.
But now just selling stuff from odd boxes from an old barn that sells Antiques & some stuff they added which was quite modern - BBQ tools Brand New. I expect they will move come summer.
My brother and I had a full Johnny and Jane West ranch when we were kids in the 1960’s! So cool!
I see you made the changes to the intro. I enjoy watching you, Alex. I am glad you are making good changes for you and your family. Taking care of yourself is so necessary for "full" health. Bless you and your family.
Your unboxing of treasures was fun to watch.
Wow ice on the windows. I'm so disappointed that you are closing your store I had plan to come visit your store in August and bring you some things.
We are glad to see you spend more time with your family and change is hard but you made the right one. The last two years has been hard on every one even us, I lost my mom to covid last March 29th she was only 72 and it been hard for us.

I get just as excited as you looking at old stuff. It's 😊 fun.I really enjoy your channel and getting to see all your friends and family.

@@marthamitchell9452 , same with us in the rural Midwest. Some good memories though!
My brother used to have many of the Johnny West figures when he was a kid. Great memories brought back with this box of finds today!!🥰🥰🥰
As long as your still on..we love watching..and your family.. congratulations on your decision..
Very nice finds! Love the little sewing machine.
Alex, the clock is an absolute gem. Love it. Look forward to seeing it hanging in your garage. 🙂
Beautiful gems!
Great finds! Glad you found some goodies for yourself also!
Nice shopping trip! I still have my Matchboxes in two cases that I received as birthday and Christmas presents up until perhaps 1972. I think the last one I received was a Hoovercraft. They are here with me. I will be 61 years old on Pearl Habor Day 2022.
So excited to see what is next. You always have great surprises and fun adventures. This is going to be great.
Terrific clock,, yes keep 4 self....
Man! I had all of those Johnny West figures as a child.. Black Bart, the Indian and horses with them as well. Great Memories!
Alex (my brother’s name) I am so excited for your new venture 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. I know you are going to love spending time with your family, the children grow up so fast and time with Melissa is priceless. You are Curiosity Inc, you don’t have to have the store and now you have a beautiful home you can now enjoy not spending time at the store.❤️❤️❤️❤️ my son who is 38 LOVED his Hot Wheel collection, the tracks and about everything that went with Hot Wheels.
I love that clock! I hope it doesn't cost too much to get the neon fixed. Thanks Alex!
A display of Hotwheels in your garage would be cool. Great picks. Keep Safe ❤Keep Well ❤
Love the little sewing machine. I had a little metal blue one when I was a child in 60's.
Thank you so much for posting. So enjoyable.
I think your decision to close the store is smart. I'm just so glad that you wlll continue on UTube because I just love your videos. Judy from Philly.
Happy trails to you …. And to your loved ones☀️
I started collecting metal toy sewing machines in the early 1970’s and own a number of Casige machines. The one you have has a beautiful decoration, different than any in my collection.

Those cars would look great in a display case in your new Garage.
A. Lincoln’s hat we saw at the Smithsonian, was a Beaver top hat. Nice piece. Glad you got some more red line Hotwheels!!
I had the Johnny West sets as a kid and loved them! Those Cars were loved to bits!
Nice finds! Slightly different intro, but fits, best wishes on your hunts and thanks for taking us on your adventures!
Awesome finds. Glad to see you growing your channel 🐶
That clock is great, Alex. Great find👌
The TV was super nice. 👌

yep, treasure hunting, finding and restoring is content gold on TH-cam.
So e nice finds for you to get🤗
Aloha! That sewing machine is so beautiful! 🌺
Hope when the vans are done you we’ll do a family trip.
Hello. Glad your day was safe and successful. Nice things gathered. As always thank you.
The redlines are cool!
The TV looks very Jetsons😁 Nice Art Deco design on the sewing machine😊
That was a fun pick! I can't wait to see the rejuvenated clock in your new garage.
Sweeet…starting a new collection for yourself
Happy for you 😄
I would love to see the whole sailboat picture we got a peak of in the background. I think it looks like a painting we had hanging in the house when I was a kid. I always loved it and don't know what happened to it. I'm curious who painted it.

Wow - you already updated the store out of your intro. Always changing and always interesting. 😊❤️
I love your channel so much! Thank you! Was a little bummed today because you got a JANE WEST DOLL and didn't bring her out of the Box.

Will be up for auction in May :)
I've downloaded a lot of custom content for my Sims 4 game and a lot of it is retro décor. One of those TVs are one of the items!
That retro tv is so cool looking
Hiya Alex! I have tò tell you that you lòoked a bit more relaxed in this video and l hope you continue on in that state of being!

Nice job on editing the intro! It's so seamless I almost didn't notice!
Sweet finds today Alexander..thanks for sharing.
The instant I saw that clock I said “ that would look good in his new garage” you have great taste
