Thank you. I specifically emphasize taking a non-frantic approach and to just be in the moment with the treasures in front of you. Thanks for watching!
Another method is to heat the sticker with the low setting on a hair dryer and once nicely warm test peel it. If it is still a bit stuborn heat it some more.;
The “perfume” bottle at the beginning of the video was actually a plant sprayer to spritz the leaves of your plants! Love your videos. I’ve given up on the frenetic, ridiculous, dizzying, greedy videos. Yours are great!
Thanks so much Judy. As you probably know, I am horrible with anything that has to do with plants or flowers. So it figures that I got this wrong and just my luck that the bottle was actually filled with perfume. The flower 🌸 and plant 🪴 gods are not on my side lol.
Hairdryer to remove stickers works well most of the time for me. Helps avoid messing up the dust cover while doing the "sticker peel". When the cost is low it's a pretty low gamble for me.
I could hear the enthusiasm in your voice. At the same time, I feel like you must have been feeling like omg I better hurry to get all these before anyone else discovers them, even though you mentioned you were pretty much alone.
I love Beverly Cleary! I’m from Oregon and been past her home and down Klickitat Street where the fictional characters Henry Huggins, Ramona and Beezus lived!
I really really enjoyed this video of the estate sale that basement was packed. I absolutely love old books I’m not a fan of the ones you’ve got, but I understand the people that do like them you get me in front of a box of old books, old children’s books. And I am happy as a kid in the candy store. I like how you pet stuff. The niche lady does that too. Everyone likes when she does it. Two thanks for the video I loved it by. Yes we all love Daisy. I love my little animals. I think I’ve told you once before I had six little doggies. I had to put down my little poodle about four weeks ago. His name was a little bit and I miss him so much I know I still have five, but he was the one who went with me, followed me, laid beside me. I really loved him and I miss him anyway, enough of that give Daisy some belly rubs for me love her with all your heart and hands while you can
try to use un-du for the stickers on books before trying to peel them off. may need to follow up with a little goof off or goo gone to clean up any residue
Thanks. I don't like go pros because of how they look when strapped on, lack of full control over the shots, and fish-eye viewing angle. I've mastered one handed filming so am able to shop plenty. :)
This was an awesome sale Dominic! First of all I love how you are saying it's off the grid while filming under elecrei wires. 😆 We know what you mean. Major out in the country. 😉 Number 2, I'm sure you have noticed when you are filming and talking to us about an item and the people around you think you are talking to them and engage with you! Just fun ! All those books! What a great good mine! Thank you !
Lol exactly. That’s exactly what I meant, it’s an isolated location. Also, there was no running water. Yes, I figured that would be fun for viewers when I have those little side conversations with people. That’s something I’ve been working into the videos more recently and I will continue to do so because people seem to like it. Thanks so much for watching! I appreciate you.
That was an amazing sale! I really appreciate that you take us through the landscapes of your beautiful state, too. Those barns on the side of the road were epic. Glad to see the beautiful Daisey.
Great estate sale. I would have went immediately to the books. I liked how you showed the driving scenery afterwards. Gave Daisy a hug from me. Love your videos. You are favorite show to watch
Yep, thanks Lesley. I should have explained that better but I was just trying to make the point not to just rip the label off before checking first. Many times through, no heat gun will be needed.
I missed a good sale. Huuugggge Dragonlance fan. Just finished ‘The Companions’. The Star Wars books are no joke either. I saw a Stony Man book there. I am currently collecting the related books in that series.
I just had to LOL when you were talking about the Polaroid Camera. I was reading my latest Mafia Erotica Romance Book, and the chapter I'm currently on literally said, ".... No evidence take the Polaroid." 😅😅
Those back roads sure do remind me of here in TN. I would say your reaction to the books is about the most excited I've ever seen you be on a video. I really wonder how many people showed up the first few days and how much they bought. I think Daisy was concentrating on her nap and didn't want to be bothered with anything but getting back to sleep. Question - did you go back and straighten and neatly stack the discarded books in the book cases??? 😆
Yeah, there is lots of country roads around here. Daisy is very quiet after she gets groomed. I think she is self-consious about. lol. I try to leave the stuff as neat as possible and as close to what it wa like when I found it, but it was pretty messy from the outset.
Epic book haul. I’m jealous! I’m lucky to have a thrift near me that always gets in big lots of books antique and new. 50 cent HC and 25 cent PB. Sci Fi, Horror and more.
Dom! That was AWESOME! Just the drive there was so nice. Made me a little homesick though. One of my nephews recently bought a house in Syracuse. Loved going through the books with you. Most resellers I watch bypass the books and it drives me nuts. What a great score. Daisy looked tired. My Tessie turned 11 this week. Boston terrier. Thanks for taking us along!
Thanks! It’s such a nice area! So glad you liked it. I’m big on books. You are right that most resellers pass them up which is why these were sitting there that long. Daisy gets like that after her grooming and haircut bc it stresses her out lol. Hi to Tessie!
Oh my gosh! Dragonlance. I had completely forgotten. I was a book scout when my son was young. (Back in the day when there were lots of independent book stores.) Whenever I saw Dragonlance I picked it up. My son was delighted. He loved those books.
Hi Dominic 😊 thanks for the shout out on the Spock books 🖖 gosh you did soooo well with all those books ✅💰 Daisy’s security strategy is to appear to be sleeping but WATCH OUT because she can come alive in a flash 🤩
This right here! 27 thumbs up! Love your awesome estate sale vids. Man! What a great haul. I'm excited, I've been clearing out a storage unit and pulling Dragonlance books, haven't comped them but had a feeling. Oh, and BTW, you showed some Dark Sword Trilogy books BOOM transported me back to HS. I read those. OK, give daisy some ear scratches and belly rubs, feed her some people food and let her sleep on the bed. Have a great week!
Lol thanks. Great find on the Dragonlance for you too! Daisy got all request s delivered. She sleeps on the bed every night and just snagged a piece of penne pasta from me for the 1st time as well last night lol
LRon Hubbard I read Dianetics back in the late 80s seriously made sense to me on the fundamentals of the mind but he was an incredible writer that’s before all of the Scientology issues arose great pickups on you estate sale would have been fun to drag along ❤
What a video! Can't wait for the next one. Wow! $85. I had to laugh at the off-the-grid house with the telephone poles running down the street That was awesome.
LOL. That's funny. In retrospect, I should not have used that term with the power lines there but what I meant was that it was an isolated location with no pics online of the house. But yeah, in retrospect I did not even realize I said "off the grid" so many times lol
@@karenkelly961 well, they were not connected to water anymore so when you are disconnected from any public utility that is technically off the grid although most ppl think it just means electricity
Wow surprised you found all of those star wars books in one place too! I have been looking everywhere for those and hardly find any and ill have to find dragon lance books now to read
So glad I found your channel. I’ve watched many sales videos, but yours is by far the best. I’m riveted to everything you show and share info about. You really know your stuff and you find amazing homes to checkout. 😊
Wow! Books can be tricky sometimes but I found a lot of success lotting up series when I could find them in good condition. Also, vintage christmas coloring books/ephemera also sold well. Dom great video, I miss estate sales and thrifting so much!
A really great reminisce with the books for a retired librarian. One of my subject areas was Fantasy. Also a big fan of Contact Paper, my mom used it and so do I from time to time. Thanks for the trip!
I'm sure you know this, but a tip for newer resellers especially of books: Using Goo-Gone or alcohol on old stickers can loosen the glue on the more stubborn ones. Just be careful of the cover's material, can sometimes stain or remove laminate cover details as well if used poorly!
@@myaccount227 If the surface it plastic then again, alchohol or goo-gone using either a q-tip or magic eraser can help. If it's a plasticy laminate/hardcover book cover, you can remove a small amount of ink with the q-tip method, but you must be extremely careful as colour loss will be a huge risk on book covers, and you will have to judge for yourself if you are willing to take the risk or would rather make sure the image is intact. Anything closer to paper in texture, I personally would not risk trying to remove, and would simply note it as a flaw in the item description. I will say also, if you are trying to remove permanent marker ink from plastic, dry-erase markers can achieve the same effect. Simply rub the marker over the permanent ink, then wipe off. The chemicals in dry-erase markers can bind to the permanent ink and break it up.
Wow, can't get over the books you got and the price!!! You hit pay dirt. I always do well selling Sci-fi, especially Asimov. Good luck and love to Daisy.
Thanks so much for your educational videos. I get so overwhelmed when I go to estate sales and see books. The one thing I remember from you is “if it has a slip cover, look it up”. Those were some awesome finds you found this time
I just found your channel. That was a fantastic estate sale!! I’m in the southern Adirondacks & I’m happy to find a fellow New York thrifter on TH-cam!! I’m excited to go back & watch your videos.
Great sale, and a book seller’s dream. There sure was a lot left on last day, I’m surprised at the amount still there. Enjoy your ES videos Dom, thanks for taking us along.
Yes, this is true. I should have mentioned that. My point in the video was showing not to rip the whole sticker off without checking first. Most stickers comes off without needing a blow dryer in my experience.
Stickers on paper labels or painted things... Try using a Hair Dryer on the sticker. Heating them us usually warms the " Sticky " ( lol ) up enough to safely remove the sticker. Even on those delicate paper book covers. ( painted things is a hit or miss kind of deal. ) PS. Lighter fluid works on removing the sticky its self.
Thanks but I know about the hair dryer technique. It's one of the oldest tricks around. My point was not to just remove the sticker without checking if it will pull the underlying paper off. Most stickers do not need a hair dryer or other fluids though like Goo Gone.
@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Dom it was awesome! Watching you score all those books made me feel like I was there and getting the thrill with you! Great score! I look forward to the next!
I'm a huge fan of the Dragonlance series as well. So glad you picked them up. I would have grabbed the Robotech book as well. I would have focused on all the books as well and the price was great.
Good call on getting the one with sticker, because yes with so many, it’s an easy lot. So many of these sell individually really well on WhatNot too. Scifi is hot
That was fun watching you go through all of the books. I’ve never heard of the dragon books but I definitely read all of those Beverly Cleary books multiple times! I loved Ralph the mouse.
Would have been so hard for me to keep my cool if I'd found that treasure shelf of books. Until they sold, I'd probably have to hide the Dragonlance from my husband because he'd want to hold onto them all. But that would be so hard because I'd want to share the awesome find with him. 😅
Right, lol. I was so excited. There is just something about Dragonlance that will always be very special to me. Seriously my favorite book series ever.
Wow, you hit the book lottery! Sometimes, blowing a heated blow dryer on a sticker will loosen the adhesive and allow you to remove the sticker. Thanks for all the education and nostalgia you provide! I remember enjoying those Fun Pads! :)
Don't usually post twice on a video. Stickers. Regardless of paper underneath. Always start at a corner and ROLL at an angle. Place your thumb right at the angled line and gently roll. Keep your thumb right at the line where the sticker meets the book jacket or book cover. Never, ever pull up. It is weird, but true. The sticker will roll right off (slowly of course) and not adhere to the book cover. This works on even the old books with pourous paper jackets.

I never commented on your videos before, but I like the way you talk about Mrs. prime time in a loving way it’s so sweet🥰
Thanks so much! I appreciate you commenting!
I kind of felt bad for Dom. That book hunt was 10x harder because he's holding a camera so we can come along. Thanks for the extra effort.
I appreciate it, John. I'm so used to it by now but it does make it more of a challenge lol.
There are some channels I have discontinued watching estate sakes because they are so frantic. Your relaxed and respectful manner I appreciate.
Thank you. I specifically emphasize taking a non-frantic approach and to just be in the moment with the treasures in front of you. Thanks for watching!
For removing stickers from books, without damage to the book, use Ronsonol lighter fluid. It does not stain the book and stickers peel right off.
Ok thanks for the tip
I prefer a warm blow dryer.
Another method is to heat the sticker with the low setting on a hair dryer and once nicely warm test peel it. If it is still a bit stuborn heat it some more.;

@@ladonnawilliams2879 yup. So did about 9 million other ppl 🤣🤣🤣

the basement was definitely on my mind as I went to to those other rooms but I knew it would not take too long to get down there.
Love to see ypu soo excitedabout the books. That sprayer in the kitchen isnt for perfume, its for misting plants
There was perfume in it though
I love Beverly Cleary! I’m from Oregon and been past her home and down Klickitat Street where the fictional characters Henry Huggins, Ramona and Beezus lived!
Oh wow! That's so cool! Thanks for letting us know!
I just love upstate NY. It's beautiful! Of course I am a NYS resident!!!!
#iloveny
Thanks Don, another very informative video.............I love anything sunflower, my favorite.........
Thanks Patricia. It's Dom though. :)
What a score with the dragonlance books. Some of my favorite growing up. Raistlin was my favorite character. My buddy has a full back tattoo of Sturm.
Love Raistlin and his herbs 🌿. He’s the best. Wow on the tattoo. I loved Tika and Kitiara! 😍
Wow that basement was amazing!!!
Agree Denise! So much fun!

Have not heard of un-du. Thanks
so good to watch you go to an estate sale. invest to an go pro so you can shop a lot. my gosh all vintage books. love to read those

This basement was lots of fun! I was nervous for a while that you missed a couple of books, but you picked them up too. 😄
Thanks Pete. Remember, in Prime Time we trust lol
I love that picture with the three glasses that was to the right of the sink
Yes, they are very nice. Not typically something I would pick up to source though. That would be a huge pain to ship.

So many treasures 😍 I didn’t grow up here so I love learning about the books you picked. Thank you for sharing. Hi Daisy!!!
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it, T!
Best thing I’ve found to remove stickers from books is a Milwaukee Model 1400 heat tool which is almost a pencil size tipped heat gun.
It only takes a second because it’s very hot and very precise. Do some tests first before anything expensive.
ok thanks for the tip
good move it has a provenance already,,,, if the buyer no quero
, other copies exist,,
I missed a good sale. Huuugggge Dragonlance fan. Just finished ‘The Companions’. The Star Wars books are no joke either. I saw a Stony Man book there. I am currently collecting the related books in that series.
Glad you liked it! Shout out to Raistlin!
I just had to LOL when you were talking about the Polaroid Camera. I was reading my latest Mafia Erotica Romance Book, and the chapter I'm currently on literally said, ".... No evidence take the Polaroid." 😅😅
So true, which is probably why it sold so fast lol

@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Dom it was awesome! Watching you score all those books made me feel like I was there and getting the thrill with you!
Great score! I look forward to the next!
@@annaleehowell4792 thanks Anna Lee. Next one will be out soon. 👍
I have no clues about book till I saw your videos. MANY GREAT FINDS
Thanks so much. Glad it helped
Love your video's! I dont believe that was a perfume mister...I think its a water mister for plants..I might be wrong..❤
Thanks Libby. Others have said the same thing and I’m sure that’s correct, but there was perfume in the bottle when I found it.
I'm a huge fan of the Dragonlance series as well. So glad you picked them up. I would have grabbed the Robotech book as well. I would have focused on all the books as well and the price was great.
Raistlin says thanks and if you don't hit the like button he will turn you into a gully dwarf. lol
Wow, what a book deal. You should take a hand cart with you. I would do myself in carrying that tote of books. Thanks for another great video
Prime Time can’t use a hand cart lol. It’s pure brute force with big boxes only lol. That’s the Prime Time at. 🤣🤣🤣
WOW!!! Loved this sale! Great video Dom! Loved the FUN PADS!! I had these as a kid too.
Thanks Denise! Those Fun Pads were amazing! So many good memories there!
Roy Scheider reference was brilliant
Lol. Love that scene. Thanks
Good call on getting the one with sticker, because yes with so many, it’s an easy lot. So many of these sell individually really well on WhatNot too. Scifi is hot
Thanks Katey! Had to do a double take on that one lol
Late to the party, what a great sale and love the fact that the house is so hidden
Thanks Robin! It was exciting to drive too!
That was fun watching you go through all of the books. I’ve never heard of the dragon books but I definitely read all of those Beverly Cleary books multiple times! I loved Ralph the mouse.
Thanks, Jessie! I was having a blast down there. Glad you had fun as well!
Don't know if you will see but I lived in the apartments behind cost cutters. The one on 46 in Parsippany.
Oh wow. I used to work at the one in freehold.
You should record a video of you giving Daisy all the extra love from everyone and say, "this belly rub is from Missy etc." 😂
Lol you’re right but that would add like 10 minutes to the videos lol
😢you have the best videos ever.
Thanks Mary! I think you meant to put a smiley face. I appreciate it!
Great estate sale. I’m a book lover and that was like pure gold mind.
Thank you!
That was an amazing book haul Dom! Loved the scenery at the end of your video.
I was so pleased that you looked for books of choice daisy looks tired from her day at the beauty salon
PRIMETIME!!!!!! Wow! Awesome video. Miss you bro. 👊😎
Thanks Gary! I still pop in to check up on you. Good to see you are still doing your thing! I’ll say hi in the chat again. 👍
Just found this channel yesterday! Subscribed and hooked!
So glad to have you! Welcome to the primetime family!
Fantastic estate sale! Love the book finds and now I have some new authors to look for. ~Atomic Kitty
Awesome. Thanks Atomic Kittyyyyyy 🐱
Would have been so hard for me to keep my cool if I'd found that treasure shelf of books. Until they sold, I'd probably have to hide the Dragonlance from my husband because he'd want to hold onto them all. But that would be so hard because I'd want to share the awesome find with him. 😅
Right, lol. I was so excited. There is just something about Dragonlance that will always be very special to me. Seriously my favorite book series ever.
I always learn about new items to source from you. Double tap to Daisy!
So glad to hear, Anne! Double tap delivered!
Omgosh - those book finds were amazing! My problem is that I'd want to read them all first before selling. lol
Lol lucky for me I read almost all of the Dragonlance books already
Wish more pickers shopped for the stuff you do. Too bad they all seem to hone in on what I collect
Thanks Jack. I am pretty much a generalist.
Great estate sale and great finds! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Wow, you hit the book lottery! Sometimes, blowing a heated blow dryer on a sticker will loosen the adhesive and allow you to remove the sticker. Thanks for all the education and nostalgia you provide! I remember enjoying those Fun Pads! :)
Don't usually post twice on a video. Stickers. Regardless of paper underneath. Always start at a corner and ROLL at an angle. Place your thumb right at the angled line and gently roll. Keep your thumb right at the line where the sticker meets the book jacket or book cover. Never, ever pull up. It is weird, but true. The sticker will roll right off (slowly of course) and not adhere to the book cover. This works on even the old books with pourous paper jackets.
Love the intro to your vids Dominic! I’m binging on your videos Brother!!
Thanks man! I appreciate it!
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter my pleasure fine sir!
I think another “affiliate” channel of yours could be called; “I’m going to need a bigger TOTE”!!!! 🤣
@@CutandShoot5x5 lol I said that in a recent video: I’m going to need a bigger box lol
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter love it! How about; “Double Tap Widgets n Gidgets”!!!
Good score
Thanks
Amazing !
awww that purple bow in Daisy's hair x
Thanks!
As usual very informative and entertaining from the Dom- minator
Lol thanks. That was my college nickname
