Dr. Lori, I have to say that I felt pretty good about the knowledge I've accumulated over 35-40 (more??) years. Every time I watch your videos I'm humbled by your incredible depth of true expertise on EVERY subject. Your mind astounds me! Thank you for making what could be a stuffy hobby an adventure....your descriptions are so perfect and your lack of pretension make a lucrative hobby so much more enjoyable. Thank you for being such a great educator and more so, thank you for sharing your vast knowledge. You obviously have a "super-high-res" photographic memory.
Hi dr Lori. Oh how I love love love to go to these places. Back in day. I don’t anymore I sure do miss the find I really enjoy lively vicariously seeing others love your utube so much fun 👍🥰
Love this format and the interesting things people find out there! Dr. Lori, I like your presentation style so much, especially when you include personal family info.

Oh wow, I’m amazed at all the great value these piece are. Wish I could be so lucky to find anything with value from trash to thrift store.What I do have is valuable to me for sentimental reason but maybe just maybe I’ll get lucky one day. I love all the great knowledge that u share with us n I live ur wonderful sense of humor. One of these days I’ll get brave enough n have video chat with u n find out just how valuable my “ old sleepy eye pitcher” is. Love you Dr. Lori ♥️👍😊
Hi Dr. Lori. Love your videos and watching you appraise things that you get excited about. I need to send a picture of a I guess a side table. It was at my great grandmas house and I remember being a very young child and admiring it. She passed I think in 1975 and my aunt had the table and was told when she was done it went to me so back in May it came to me. My aunt passed in July. Since I got the table I have been told it belonged to my great grandmas mother and maybe her mother. It is beautiful and I love it.

Hey there woman ! Just really dig the way you tell it like it is ! And your no bullshit straight up brass tack it is what it is attitude ! Much respect ! XXX
Sorry that I was late to your live video. I just watched it from the beginning. I have been a subscribed member for about a year now. You are teaching me so much, thank you for everything! I am going to start listing on eBay soon and I may be contacting you through your site regarding that William Jackson pottery I found. Thanks again 😊
We'll let it pass this time :) Thanks for subbing and supporting the channel and new videos. I have a few articles about selling on eBay on my website and my new Ask Dr. Lori videos talk about it too answering questions people have asked.
I remember Filene's basement! I lived in Boston in the late 70's. Wow! what a place it was. We had something similar in Toronto, Ont. called Honest Ed's always a treasure hunters dream.
Hi Dr. Lori! It’s been about 2 weeks now since I found you and I’m still obsessed! My family is probably sick of me talking about you haha. Just wanted to like and comment to boost your vids for the TH-cam algorithm. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge, I found an amazing painting at an estate sale this weekend so I’m going to be looking out for your next live session so I can video chat with you! Love ya ♥️
@@DrLoriV yes of course! When I was at the thrift store a guy started talking to me and asking me what I was doing (cause I was taking pictures and doing reverse searches) so I told him all about you and that you are the number 1 best source for antique information!!!
Just do you know, I was listening/watching your video while getting dressed, and put my pants on backward 3 times before getting them right! More evidence of how very interesting your videos are! Thanks!
Great show! I could listen to you all day! LOL, I "have" watched you all day! I didn't realize you had news spots in the morning news shows, I love them. Love your enamelware coffee/teapots, we don't see very many of them in the southern markets. Thanks a million for sharing your awesome, interesting knowledge.

Dr. Lori, I may have missed it, but I notice you have Kermit in all of these type vlogs, what gives? I grew up in Greenville Mississippi which is 7 miles from Leland where Jim Henson sat on the banks of Deer Creek & created Kermit. There's a little center there in his honor! I love me some Kermit! And I love me some Dr. Lori too! Denise 😉✌
@@loridisney3782 Hey are you of THE Disney- Disney's? Once, I read re: Art Linkletter Mr. Walt Disney took him out to show him some land beyond the city to tell him that he was going to build an "amusement/ theme park", etc. In that article Linkletter said he kinda shrugged the idea off and did not get in on it but it seems later on after some success Mr. Disney allowed him to buy in ?

Dr Lori, I love how u do the videos like this. It is teaching us to find better quality stuff. I also want to mention you are losing weight & it shows. Great job.❤👍🤩

Loved the sconces, loved the framed piece with the two women, and especially love that sterling silver English tea set. I love tea sets because they always make me envision the tea tables they sat upon, and the people who drank that tea. I’m a sucker for things that get my imagination going.

Thanks Dr Lori always interesting! Back in the day when my kiddos were young l would always drive around and check out people's trash. Fun finding treasure and embarrassing the kids!💖
@@DrLoriV I do know that the grandkids love my "ancient " things! I was telling my husband today that I need to get on your special program, so I can start getting some of my things appraised!💖
Welcome! Use the binge link at th-cam.com/play/PL384695BCA1841B8F.html to watch all the videos starting with the most recent one to see if you have any of these items!
Hi dr Lori my sweet niece actually found the cutes puppy. Yes a white adorable puppy in the trash how awful huh. But she took it out brought her to get her checked up got shots etc and kept her was the most love puppy ever we all are in love with this sweet natured puppy a joy 🐩🥰
People take me shopping all the time. Get your smartphone and schedule a time. It's a lot of fun and I show you the bargains that everyone is missing :)
Another great video,,Thank you Dr. Lori,,I would have picked up the dog pic and the wall sconces because I love animal things,,who knew, besides you, that they would be worth so much!
I’ve found amazing items in the trash. This wasn’t one of the high priced things I’ve found, but the coincidence is pretty amazing. A couple of years ago, I found a gift card that was still redeemable for a $50 dinner at a very good restaurant in my area. The amazing thing was that the issue date on the card was the month and day of my birthday! I used the card to treat myself to a wonderful steak & lobster dinner with an excellent desert. It was clear someone had thrown it away as it was in a bag with a bunch of junk. Now, this next story is not about trash items, but books. I love books and sell a lot of them online. Again a couple years ago, I was in a thrift store and was looking through the book section. I was flipping through the pages in one book and lo and behold! I found a $100 bill! Yes, it was real and not counterfeit. I have so many stories of finding things just walking around; e.g., silver earrings (one with diamonds) in parking lots, a high-end, brand new drone next to a dumpster, a perfectly good motorized scooter also by a dumpster, expensive cameras, etc. One time (and this is astonishing), I was working on a stationary bike at a gym. I happened to look in the middle of the floor about 10 feet away and saw some paper money. It was just sitting there - a big wad of it! I tried to discreetly pick it up and brought it to the locker room and counted it. It was $2,200! I’ve done the right thing whenever I’ve found items by putting out ads and waiting if someone claims the stuff. With the $2,200, I called the gym’s management and asked them if someone had recently reported any valuable lost items. They said no. I told them to call me if someone did and I waited one month. I never heard from them so I kept the money. I’ve also found money in people’s clothes, furniture, boxes of stuff, magazines, other books, on the ground outside countless times, and more.
That's it I'm dumping my parts hungry SUV and getting a little car to go curb shopping, I've found some great things in the trash especially when people move. What saddens me is when they got a big dumpster in front of the house. But I've poked around in those when no one is looking. lol.
I used to be so embarrassed when my husband would stop the car 'anywhere' to pull something out of the trash! I thought I would die. ;-). Then one day I was walking up the street to the local market and saw a cute little wooden child's sled on the trash pile - looked like something you'd see in a 1920's postcard. I had to have it - lol! I carted it home and of course my husband chides me to this day for trash picking. :-)
@@DrLoriV yep! No brand so maybe it was handmade. But it's so cute - with the handrails and back rest. :-) Looking at eBay and such - I doubt it's valuable - but it's still worth more than I paid, as you always say. :-) And the kidding factor from my husband, 30 years later, makes it priceless. :-)
@@blujeans9462 Thanks for sharing and you may be right about it's value, I don't know without seeing it, but please don't rely on eBay or other online auctions for valuing things. People post stuff and don't know what they are selling or they don't care because they got something out of the trash :) The story is priceless!
@@DrLoriV Exactly! Even if it was more valuable than I figured, it could never be sold - because every time I look at it, it reminds of my first (and probably only :-) trash picking and my hubby busting out in laughter when I came strolling home with it. Still makes me smile when I think of it. :-). Thanks so much, Dr Lori, for your personal reply - that is so sweet. I love your videos!!
Filenes basement in the 1980's was awesome! I miss it badly! I nannied in boston& spent my check there weekly, there& @ the ratskellar seeing wilson picket!
Nice Mario Lopez sconces. I have a Mario Lopez lamp, with the Toucan and Parrot. It's in perfect shape and works...$7 at a thrift store. He made some very nice animal motif furniture...like monkey tables and such. I've even seen room dividers too. The larger pieces I've seen priced well over a few grand.
OK, your videos are a guilty pleasure! A few years ago I saw a pretty little dish at an estate sale. It was marked $15.00. Last day so I offered $10.00. Turns out It is a Lalique lierre ivy dish in crystal🤣
I just love your real bargains! I found half of a Lalique Vibration box. Is it worthless? It could be used as trinket jewelry holder but I’m not sure if it’s sellable.
The set in yellow is very much like on I have in aqua, and I think I have more glasses, like 10.. Not sure because I'm still unpacking from a very long renovation. Same sort of graduated colouring too. I will get my priority deal going as soon as I can unpack more.

I’m finding that compared to a of couple years ago, thrift stores are now picking out and keeping most - if not all - of their items that are worth anything and do not put them out on the floor anymore. I’m guessing the managers are now trained to identify these items. I used to find gold, silver and other jewelry and/or precious gems, original paintings, vintage kitchenware...etc. Not so much anymore. Plus, in my area, thrift stores, especially the Goodwill, have raised their prices such that it’s almost not worth it to shop there anymore.
Have you watched my videos? Thrift stores and places like Goodwill are missing stuff all the time. Pieces are even marked and they are missing the marks or maybe just not bothering.
I do online Auctions that are local to my area. I purchased 2 Candlesticks that were listed as EPNS Base. So, no one bid I bought them for 2 bucks. When I was looking for similar ones online I found a short pair that looked exactly like my base. But, their's was marked on the outside at the bottom, Birks Sterling. I couldn't see anything on mine until I used a silver cleaning cloth and rubbed along the edge, yep, Birks Sterling with a EPNS weighted base. I'm going to have to become one of your members Dr. Lori. Prices are all over the place for these and what I find are ones that are 3 inches tall. Mine are about 7.5. I think I did ok?
I help a lot of resellers make money! For example the person in this video with the wall sconces recently resold them at my appraised value. As far as prices being all over the place, I tell you why in an upcoming Ask Dr. Lori video so stay tuned.
Hey Dr. Lori. Do you have any knowledge on Sammy Robinson? He is a First Nation carver in Kitamat BC. We have a piece by him. He sculpted a piece for Alcan that was presented to retiree's. I can find no info on the plaque or him. If you know maybe we can arrange a picture or someone who does. You are fantastic.
Hi dr lori, how do you appraise one of a kind objects that have don't have a sales record? For example, i have some falconry equipment that belonged to a very famous falconer. I don't have any intention of selling them, but would it be possible to get appraisal in future, or would that be impossible until there is some sort of sales record.
Hi Dr. Lori. Talking about SPODE: I have 2 Boxes of Spode Christmas Tree dinner plates (also have Bread & Butter Plates) and the green rim is cracking and FALLING OFF. It is sharp and dangerous. How can I return them to the company? I cannot find a contact number for them in the USA, and I have no idea where they were bought- they were a gift (a vintage gift)- But They aren't new either, and they were never used. There is not a single utensil mark on any of them, they are in pristine new condition except for the green rim cracking and falling off.
No receipt, don't know when or where you purchased them? Have you thought about reselling them stating their current condition? Someone might need your good pieces to replace their broken or missing pieces.

Ready and waiting doc!
I’ve found amazing items in the trash. This wasn’t one of the high priced things I’ve found, but the coincidence is pretty amazing. A couple of years ago, I found a gift card that was still redeemable for a $50 dinner at a very good restaurant in my area. The amazing thing was that the issue date on the card was the month and day of my birthday! I used the card to treat myself to a wonderful steak & lobster dinner with an excellent desert. It was clear someone had thrown it away as it was in a bag with a bunch of junk. Now, this next story is not about trash items, but books. I love books and sell a lot of them online. Again a couple years ago, I was in a thrift store and was looking through the book section. I was flipping through the pages in one book and lo and behold! I found a $100 bill! Yes, it was real and not counterfeit. I have so many stories of finding things just walking around; e.g., silver earrings (one with diamonds) in parking lots, a high-end, brand new drone next to a dumpster, a perfectly good motorized scooter also by a dumpster, expensive cameras, etc. One time (and this is astonishing), I was working on a stationary bike at a gym. I happened to look in the middle of the floor about 10 feet away and saw some paper money. It was just sitting there - a big wad of it! I tried to discreetly pick it up and brought it to the locker room and counted it. It was $2,200! I’ve done the right thing whenever I’ve found items by putting out ads and waiting if someone claims the stuff. With the $2,200, I called the gym’s management and asked them if someone had recently reported any valuable lost items. They said no. I told them to call me if someone did and I waited one month. I never heard from them so I kept the money. I’ve also found money in people’s clothes, furniture, boxes of stuff, magazines, other books, on the ground outside countless times, and more.
Thanks for sharing.
That's it I'm dumping my parts hungry SUV and getting a little car to go curb shopping, I've found some great things in the trash especially when people move. What saddens me is when they got a big dumpster in front of the house. But I've poked around in those when no one is looking. lol.
I used to be so embarrassed when my husband would stop the car 'anywhere' to pull something out of the trash! I thought I would die. ;-). Then one day I was walking up the street to the local market and saw a cute little wooden child's sled on the trash pile - looked like something you'd see in a 1920's postcard. I had to have it - lol! I carted it home and of course my husband chides me to this day for trash picking. :-)
Still got the sled?
@@DrLoriV yep! No brand so maybe it was handmade. But it's so cute - with the handrails and back rest. :-) Looking at eBay and such - I doubt it's valuable - but it's still worth more than I paid, as you always say. :-) And the kidding factor from my husband, 30 years later, makes it priceless. :-)
@@blujeans9462 Thanks for sharing and you may be right about it's value, I don't know without seeing it, but please don't rely on eBay or other online auctions for valuing things. People post stuff and don't know what they are selling or they don't care because they got something out of the trash :) The story is priceless!
@@DrLoriV Exactly! Even if it was more valuable than I figured, it could never be sold - because every time I look at it, it reminds of my first (and probably only :-) trash picking and my hubby busting out in laughter when I came strolling home with it. Still makes me smile when I think of it. :-). Thanks so much, Dr Lori, for your personal reply - that is so sweet. I love your videos!!
Kool tables!
Filenes basement in the 1980's was awesome! I miss it badly! I nannied in boston& spent my check there weekly, there& @ the ratskellar seeing wilson picket!
The 80s were awesome period!
Excited!
Cool I sometimes get free stuff from road sides and trash too.
In a previous video I just watched you have a lot of pottery pieces in front of you. There is a blue bird planter. Who makes it? I LOVE IT!!!
I talk about the items on my table in upcoming videos. Stay tuned!
Wow! Nice
Nice Mario Lopez sconces. I have a Mario Lopez lamp, with the Toucan and Parrot. It's in perfect shape and works...$7 at a thrift store. He made some very nice animal motif furniture...like monkey tables and such. I've even seen room dividers too. The larger pieces I've seen priced well over a few grand.
Yes the finds are out there!
OK, your videos are a guilty pleasure! A few years ago I saw a pretty little dish at an estate sale. It was marked $15.00. Last day so I offered $10.00. Turns out It is a Lalique lierre ivy dish in crystal🤣
Thanks for subbing! No need to feel guilty!! No calories :)
I just love your real bargains! I found half of a Lalique Vibration box. Is it worthless? It could be used as trinket jewelry holder but I’m not sure if it’s sellable.
I can appraise your piece. Send me Photos. Use the form on my website.
Your appraisal skills are legendary, but you know that lol ~ you're the real treasure :)
You're sweet! Thanks for subbing and supporting the channel!
@@DrLoriV I spent $25.00 at 15 yard sales, 3 thrift stores & 2 estate sales. If you get bored stop by, I posted a video of my treasures lol
@@norcaltreasurehunters2380 I'm busy doing video calls helping resellers make money. You can always pick a time in my schedule :)
Thank you!
You bet!
The set in yellow is very much like on I have in aqua, and I think I have more glasses, like 10.. Not sure because I'm still unpacking from a very long renovation. Same sort of graduated colouring too. I will get my priority deal going as soon as I can unpack more.
I’ve been a fan for a month! Love the videos! Any advice for beginners?
Yes, keep watching :) Use my binge link at th-cam.com/play/PL384695BCA1841B8F.html which shows the most recent videos first even when I'm on other channels.

I’m finding that compared to a of couple years ago, thrift stores are now picking out and keeping most - if not all - of their items that are worth anything and do not put them out on the floor anymore. I’m guessing the managers are now trained to identify these items. I used to find gold, silver and other jewelry and/or precious gems, original paintings, vintage kitchenware...etc. Not so much anymore. Plus, in my area, thrift stores, especially the Goodwill, have raised their prices such that it’s almost not worth it to shop there anymore.
Have you watched my videos? Thrift stores and places like Goodwill are missing stuff all the time. Pieces are even marked and they are missing the marks or maybe just not bothering.
You grew up like I did....my grandmother was 1 of 9....we were surrounded by family on the same street...
What a wonderful soul

Thanks for the support! Ring the bell so you get notifications too :)
Talk more about your Italian background please! You forgot about plastic on the sofa
Please do a video on repurposing furniture. :)
You're so awesome. Thank you!
I will show you what to look for, what's valuable, and what to safely repurpose and redo. So much fun.
I do online Auctions that are local to my area. I purchased 2 Candlesticks that were listed as EPNS Base. So, no one bid I bought them for 2 bucks. When I was looking for similar ones online I found a short pair that looked exactly like my base. But, their's was marked on the outside at the bottom, Birks Sterling. I couldn't see anything on mine until I used a silver cleaning cloth and rubbed along the edge, yep, Birks Sterling with a EPNS weighted base. I'm going to have to become one of your members Dr. Lori. Prices are all over the place for these and what I find are ones that are 3 inches tall. Mine are about 7.5. I think I did ok?
I help a lot of resellers make money! For example the person in this video with the wall sconces recently resold them at my appraised value. As far as prices being all over the place, I tell you why in an upcoming Ask Dr. Lori video so stay tuned.
You’re awesome
Hi Dr. Lori. I went to Hamden High class of 1967! Did you have relatives in East Haven? I had an old friend named Sheila Verdarame.
No.
When you give a value, does that mean if sold to a collector? And how would people sell their finds? On ebay?
Hey Dr. Lori. Do you have any knowledge on Sammy Robinson? He is a First Nation carver in Kitamat BC. We have a piece by him. He sculpted a piece for Alcan that was presented to retiree's. I can find no info on the plaque or him. If you know maybe we can arrange a picture or someone who does. You are fantastic.
Thanks for subbing. You can send me photos to review using a form on my website.
Hi dr lori, how do you appraise one of a kind objects that have don't have a sales record? For example, i have some falconry equipment that belonged to a very famous falconer. I don't have any intention of selling them, but would it be possible to get appraisal in future, or would that be impossible until there is some sort of sales record.
I appraise one of a kind items.
Hi Dr. Lori. Talking about SPODE: I have 2 Boxes of Spode Christmas Tree dinner plates (also have Bread & Butter Plates) and the green rim is cracking and FALLING OFF. It is sharp and dangerous. How can I return them to the company? I cannot find a contact number for them in the USA, and I have no idea where they were bought- they were a gift (a vintage gift)- But They aren't new either, and they were never used. There is not a single utensil mark on any of them, they are in pristine new condition except for the green rim cracking and falling off.
No receipt, don't know when or where you purchased them? Have you thought about reselling them stating their current condition? Someone might need your good pieces to replace their broken or missing pieces.
In some cities in Ohio, we are NOT allowed to go thru "garbage". We have to ask the owner's permission to go thru it.
Wall sconces.....who would have known!
Update: The person who found this real bargain informed me they recently sold them at my appraised value :)
