as I get older, I see that worldly stuff is just junk, maybe pretty, maybe special, but its temporary, items sifted through people depending on luck, price and money. Your smile and happy attitude is worth thousands of dollars.
So true ❤️
Happy attitude?
The slide show was amazing.
I just noticed that you have removed the leash from your moose.. It amazes me that someone obviously didnt like it.. oh well !
Agree sooo beautiful especially with the music. Renee you should've made your own postcards with those snapshots.
Please go to the next auction. It doesn't matter whether you buy anything. It's great just getting to see the accumulation of years of collecting. It was so interesting to see the house. I can imagine seeing it in Country Living magazine (cleaned up, of course). Really enjoyed the auction snapshots. Thanks for the great video.
Go to the next auction !! The entertainment is free, and the education is priceless and maybe you'll get lucky.
loved the slide show, you should consider doing that more often
Best part was all your photos , now I know how u see things in your eyes, beautiful
You're a young woman with an old soul (that's a compliment). I hope you find a home like that one day that you can make yours. We found ours in Parkesburg PA (old stone home 1723 vintage) and it killed us when we were forced to relocate. Stay strong, you'll get there.
A 1723 home, be still my heart!
Thank you for the photo collage. You have a fabulous eye. Just amazing ....the auction, the home and the photos.
Thank you so much!
ohhh that bear on the chair in the rain I wanted to take him home but I'm sure I couldn't have afforded him. Loved the snapshots at the end. BTW I really love reading the comments of your viewers.
I do too. Fun to see what people write lol
the big money might not bother with a second day so go again just in case. Perhaps you can sell photos you take of the collections in the boxes there. You have an eye for it.
Great job! You really are a true artist of life! Positive and unique individual! One of the best you tube channels I have subscribed to!
WOW. I didn't realize you could still find such wonderful old antiques.
This house was one of the "untouched" homes that are still out there. And to think, they still have a second floor full of treasures!
Your photos were beautiful and sad at the same time. The stories these items could tell......
House was Beautiful it was an experience see when their garbage day is
Very smart~ I sure want to know when their trash day is =)
Hello Renee,
That looks like it was an great estate auction filled to the brim with old time antiques. Those type of sales are becoming a lot more rare in just the past 15 years I've been attending auctions and some of the stuff shown is genuinely harder to find, unless you want to wait months, years for another to come up which could explain the prices. I am a collector and started as a teenager going to auctions with my parents and grandfather. It was always so amazing see and be able to handle all of the treasures you couldn't afford. I got to examine a rare coin that sold later in the sale for over $200K.
There are indeed some collectors that attend auctions with bottomless pocketbooks, I know of two older gentlemen in my area who were the heirs of a prominent local 19th century industrialist and they have a warehouse full of their collections. Good luck outbidding them. I'd say estate auctions are likely 60/40 dealers to collectors. Sometimes you can find deals, sometimes you can't. There are successful antique dealers I know that do very well at estate auctions, but they always say they can't buy what they personally like or want, they have to focus on items or lots of items that have a good value and are otherwise overlooked in order to leave enough meat on the bone for resale. I bet there was some hidden treasures in there that sold well under retail levels.
The pandemic has greatly impacted the antiques and collectables business. Prices are up considerably, that is just a fact. People are bored of been cooped up and are looking to buy items to make themselves feel better. Many of my antique dealer friends can't buy for resale right now, perhaps elevated prices will end after the pandemic levels off or perhaps we are seeing a new normal.
I do have a modest collection of Rookwood Pottery and cannot believe that the auctioneers left all of those pieces in that box lot like that. Somebody careless could have easily damaged them and greatly decreased the value. That pair of owl bookends were really nice and usually sell for very good money if in pristine condition. You tell the date of manufacture of RP by looking at the roman numerals, if there are none then that means it is a really early piece and you can date it by the number of flames in the mark.
Don't get discouraged. This is how estate auctions work, not all of them are good for buying. I as a collector get disappointed regularly too when I get blown away on items I really like. In those times you have to be grateful for the items you do have in your collection and perhaps next week you will make a great find and will be forgotten.
Thanks for your channel! I collect art pottery, postcards, advertising, among other things.

I worked at a Florist & Gifts, in the 60’s, we got a shipment of small Christmas toys. We sold Wreaths of all kinds. Shipment had some Broken toys, Rocking horse, damage Stuffed Bears, Dolls etc. Too Late & Pointless to return. We created a “Wreath of Christmas Past” with the the Broken Christmas Toys... $125 - $200. We ran out of broken toys and had to brake toys to put on more Wreaths. Attached an Vintage-looking Christmas Card. Slide Show & Music well done 👍🏽 💛💜💚💙🧡❤️♥️
What a great idea! When I thrift, I often come across really cute small toys and ornaments that are broken, but I feel so bad leaving them behind because I know nobody will purchase them. Well now I know what I can make with them. Thanks for the great inspiration!
That is an awesome idea. Renee should do that....she could find all the pieces at the fleamarket. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💕💜💕💜💕🇩🇰
Some days it just doesn't happen. As Taco Stacks often says, 'It is what it is'.
I don’t cry easily.....but omg....the still photos and music of the old teddy bears and art supplies ....makes me wish I had known this woman who had collected these older things....an appreciation of expression and reflection of life
Yes, definitely to the slide show. It's like mentally "collecting" stuff and not having to worry about where you're going to put it.
Janice.. that’s a really ideal way to put it . I get the pleasure to see such interesting, odd memorable treasures and keep them in my “mental notebook”👍💖. What fun that auction was.. thanks for the videos and look forward to more.
I loved, loved, loved this video! The house, everything in it, the slideshow, just great Renee. Thanks!
Just reading the comments, soooo many of us really appreciate the beautiful work that you do Renee preserving the past in your videography with your charming outlook and way of interacting with the world around you, especially in this year 2020. You are like an ambassador from PA to the rest of the country!!! Thank you.
What an amazing home and collection of antiques. I loved the slide show. Thanks for sharing this auction with us. I wish you had been able to get one of the Christmas lots.
You have an amazing eye for photos! Blessings and Peace ❤️✝️
Thank you!
This home was gorgeous and her taste was Amazing ! At one time …. She gave that home so much .
That house is like a historical time piece. The items must have been amazing to see too, thanks for the excursion.
I can only imagine what it must have been like for the auction company, being able to be the "first" in there after so many years!
@@PaperandMoose the auction house was very happy, im sure. Go back, as some of the people making bids might have their fill. Do many people leave before the last bids? Also, what happens if someone doesn t take their item, if they changed their mind?
You may not have been able to purchase anything, but you have a unique talent for taking a trip to an unsuccessful auction and turning it into a wonderful video. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Seeing the departed ones treasures that probably was well loved being bought by non- family has me in tears. Maybe they will be well loved again. The home was beautiful. Loved the fireplace.
Try to remember that these "treasures" are still just "things" and that the departed have no memory of them because they were just for our pleasure while we occupied these earthly bodys.instead "lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven where neither moth nor rust destroy and where thieves do not break in and steal.For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." Wisdom to live by.
cannot
@@lorigreenberg4797 Scientifically we really don't know if the departed ones have memories or whether they can see or not. I just don't like to see their precious belongings disregarded like yesterday's trash. You would hope to think some relatives would claim them. It just breaks my heart to think no one cares. Also, what you're saying has very nice sentiment.
Thankful you’re going again, it sure was fun to watch!
Thing is, you WILL find a house like that miss, to do a cleanout etc~ especially if you're willing to travel a bit. They're out there, & if you set about to do such a thing, you certainly will. I used to think otherwise, yet now, @54 yrs old & many a road traveled & a desire had, I've experienced so many events that I simply set out to have. It's awesome, and I can see you doing just that.
*Beautifully done w/the slide show btw~ such an eye you have =) -Samantha in NM
Thank you for the kind comment Samantha! I'm always up for traveling, that is never an issue. Just have to will it into existence! I see you are from New Mexico... I've wanted to travel to Santa Fe since I was 13 years old. Hopefully one day I will get out there!
If you come to New Mexico please come and visit me. 😊 I love your channel and would love to meet you. We live in NW New Mexico. Outside of Aztec. 😊Your auctions are amazing!
I love how you did the still shots. Very nice.
So many things that will be gone and forgotten . Even the house and the land were fabulous .
It was a learning experience for you, so not a loss. Your flea market sells things so cheaply, I always wonder why? You know Dave, pick his brain girl!
I don't think you lost anything by not buying, but gained the consolidation of your already
strong knowledge of items and their worth, which you share with us on each video. Also remember that at an auction like that some of the bidders will be museums filling gaps in their collections. Loved the images you put together for us - glimpses of the items of the day, especially the old fireplace and its implements. Thank you, and stay safe.
This was an incredible and glorious video with the inserted snapshots. Those snapshots were literally views of history, views which are now seldom seen. The old fireplace with all the cooking utinsels was incredible to see, like seeing a fireplace at Williamsburg. I was going to lead off with Renee, the investigator from UNCLE, keeping the theme of buying an Uncle.
14:16 I disagree. You won the appreciation of every viewer that watched and commented on your channel.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful slide show and music.
That was incredible Renee and so moving. Thank you for the wonderful slide show too. Xx
I so enjoyed the slideshow, thank you. The house was stunning! I loved everything about it. The fireplace in kitchen with the pair of wing backs, the millwork, the lamp over the sink. No modern "stuff". Reminds me of my grandparents' house that was built in 1819, frozen in time.
Definitely frozen in time! I wish I could have seen the upstairs!
I think you could print your pictures and sell them. They were very nice!
I would buy the bear photo!
The slideshow was beautiful!
Thank you! I figured it was a nice way to showcase some of my favorite items at the auction.
I loved the photos you took at the end along with the music. What amazing things. You don't see things like that everyday. Thanks for sharing😊
Being an antique dealer myself you have very good taste and antiques and right on the ball of the good items
Loved the slideshow with the music, very artistic!
I do not think it was a loss. You got to admire all the treasures
Thank you for the video. Everything was amazing. I loved loved loved the old baskets 🧺
I had to look again at the photos, please continue to show them!!! I enjoy them. Thank you for sharing!💗
Thank you Judy!
Wow I want all those boxes under the plastic😍😍😍 how fun! What a trip back in history 😍😍😍
Honestly Renee your TH-cam needs to go viral, you share such great content
Now thats she is posting more and doing more with taco stacks she will get known. I wonder if she quit her day job yet becasue that would help her work on youtube and listings full time and source awesome content
I love this sort of auction
The slide show really added to the video. Thank you very much
Wow! For just the chance to be inside that beautiful house, the auction was worth it! I loved the still shots you included. I don’t know why, but they made me emotional. I started thinking about who the owner of the house might have been and the stories behind those objects. PLEASE tell me you’re going to go back for the upstairs’ and other building’s auctions!! Love, love, love when you take us along to these auctions.
The pics were beautiful you have an artistic eye.
Love the photos and the music you used near the end. Great photo skills. My mother had watched you for a long time and I am just starting. You are a pleasure to watch.
Rene, those photos were incredible. I think some of them would be awesome on your wall or mounted to sell at the flea market.
PS. You did NOT lose! You learned a lot. And I think you had a really fun experience. The lesson is that some people will spend more when YOU get a lot of them at the flea market.
Also, you may want to keep going to these. There are times when for whatever reason, things slip through the cracks. You go knowing that you’ll probably only get something 10 or 20% of the time. As you experience these, you also learn about them and what sells.
I was so hoping the Victorian die-cuts would be my winning bid. For $35, that would have been a steal. I spoke with a few other people that stayed the entire auction and they said that even the items that should have sold for lower were going for a premium. We shall see what the next auction holds!
Paper and Moose: Some of them attract people who really don’t care what the price is. We used to collect Native American baskets (because we’re Natives). So ours were mostly from the Pacific NW (where we’re from). Some days, even though we stayed the entire auction, we’d walk away with very little.
We’d pay premium price for very rare antique baskets (some were older than this country), yes. But some days we’d watch as baskets we could buy cheaply on the open market went for huge prices. An auctioneers dream audience.
Other times, the good deals people were there who wouldn’t pay for value. We scooped up baskets that we hadn’t a prayer of getting any other time. Obviously, those times were rare, but super fun. Lol.
The best auctioneers make sure there’s money in the audience. But sometimes despite their best efforts, the money just doesn’t show.
And I think you go about it the right way. You’re not going to get rich - at least not in the beginning. But you have great potential to do so without ending up broke because you have so much inventory with not enough sales $$ to keep up.
You also don’t seem to be the person that will have a warehouse (or two) filled with so much stuff you can’t tell if you have value in your stockpile.
I think in the reselling business, Rene, you’re an anomaly. Just think if Blue Bus Dave had ALL of his jewelry listed! (Couldn’t resist, sorry).
I think you’re doing great! What do I know? Certainly not the reselling business! I’d have warehouses full of crap! Lol. But I do know a few things about business, and I think you’re approaching it the right way.
And again, I adored your photos of gorgeous antiques that I’ll never be able to afford. Your photography was wonderful!
I did, as always, enjoy the video. I also enjoyed the slideshow at the end. You’re a very good photographer. Ever consider taking up photography? You seem to have a very good eye for it.
The box of Steiff was crazy....
Even though you didn't buy anything, this was a terrific video. I loved the style of it, Great job!
I love watching your videos. The slideshow you put together was amazing.
Your photos are beautiful and should be available for sale. Your composition exceptional. Make your own greeting cards. Wow.
That house! Full of history and treasures. The prices went up so so fast. Great video.
Beautiful work Renee. Thank you for the peek.
I loved the home and antiques. I would love to live their. Thanks for showing us the pictures that tell a story.
Auctions like that help drive the prices up on some of the stuff you have. Win for you!
Auctions like this can be frustrating when you're looking for product to resell, but I still love going and handling these relics and thinking of all the history. Great vid.
I’m 76 reminds of all I have.
Thank you for bringing us along, beautiful old house and awesome stuff ! I loved the slide show you put up , have a wonderful day 😊
I used to go to auctions with some friends of mine and always loved them. I really thought you did a great job on the photos you took. Simply awesome! Thanks for sharing.
The slide show was amazing! I REALLY enjoyed that!! You have a gift for photography!!
Paper and Moose is a part of my daily routine. As well as Taco Stacks and The Old Curiosity Shop!!! My three favorites! Thank you for all your efforts - much appreciated ❤️
What a house of treasure waiting to be explored!!!!!
It’s all about location and who shows up. Clearly the auction company advertised well, knowing what they had. Lots of cool stuff though. Thanks for sharing!
Lovely, thank you. Please go to the next one. Your pictures touched me.
enjoyed watching you go through all the Christmas boxes
I've been to those kind of auctions before and yes, it's a learning experience. It's almost like time travel. Seeing things that belonged to the family and how they lived and loved can take your breath away. Those old-time auctions are so hard to find anymore. I drooled over the Christmas items with you. I LOVE it! Thanks for the trip.
I really enjoyed the pictures at the end. Auctions bring out big groups of people and a way that it is presented without much effort. It makes it hard for people that dig and put in the effort as a buyer.
Loved the slideshow and the auction. Amazing stuff! Yes, go back, if nothing else, for your own photos and slide show!
Wonderful slideshow. At least you got to see the beautiful house and items. Like you said as a reseller it just couldn’t be done. Stay safe and God Bless
I loved the slide show, beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing.
Nice day to sell steif bears. I kind of hate to be at an auction where People act like Money 💰 doesn't Matter. To everyone else money matters.😏🎃💚
Renee......absolutely loved the still shots. Thank you for doing this for us!!!!
That’s an amazing fireplace. Great items. That’s my kind of place.
I was hoping you'd have gotten something. Nice slide show. Best of fortune on the next one! 🐻
I loved the slideshow! Such a nice collection of photos of items that gave a flavor of the home! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Everything at this house was amazing!
Loved the slide show! Prices were crazy. They must have been collectors. I just can’t imagine! Enjoyed it so much!
I LOVE the old Teddy Bears....somehow I feel sorry for them all alone.
Wow, the shots you took would make great cards. So retro/eclectic. Great photography Xx
No day is lost. What people bought at the auction they probably needed more than you! God will not let us go without anything be it clothing, food or necessities. Memories are great!!!
How exciting. Crazy prices!!!!! Loved that fireplace! They don't have those kind of homes in Minnesota!!!! Sorry you weren't able to get anything but thank you so much for taking us along again! Loved the slideshow!
Ever thought of asking the winner if there was anything in their box they don’t want that you may buy? I know you hate asking things but you have nothing to loose.
that box lot of Victorian die cuts was amazing! but you have to know your spending limits. I would've let it go too. Auctions can be fun just to see the stuff. but always a bonus when you find that cheap box lot with hidden treasures!
I can't imagine! Loved seeing everything without being there. I went to an estate sale yesterday run by a lady who is notorious for overpricing and being crabby and weird. I tried to negotiate with her on an industrial sewing machine. But she was so inflexible. I ended up coming back after the sale and buying it directly from the guy she sold "the junk" to. He was "the junk dealer." SO much of what she'd overpriced was still there. It is like she didn't really want to get the most amount of money she could for the Family. It made me sad. But see, I knew she was like that based on her other sales.
Some of these " Estate Sale companies" should have to pass an ethics test and some sort of training like an auctioneer has to. Lots of them are in it just for some fast cash and could care less about what they make for their clients. They are running rampant all over the country like packs of dogs.
We have an estate sale company that also owns a used furniture store. I have noticed that most of the high end furniture ends up at their store instead of being sold to the public at the estate sale.
Thanks so much for the auction pictures. It was an incredible house! Keep sharing, we really appreciate the glimpses into that side of the picking life. Yes prices were crazy! But so fun to see.
Hi Renee! 😊 ... thanks so much for taking us along .... prices got to be out of my League! ... it was so nice to tag along and
experience the Auction... the end of your video was beautifully done... do you recall what the "Sad Teddy" went for? Adorable! 🥰
Everything was amazing. Loved that house! My kind of home. I want to Thank You sooo much for the pictures at the end so wonderful of you to do that. That bear just tore my heart out. Hugs and blessings. OHIO
Loved the slide show ! Auctions can be crazy for sure.
I love everything and that teddy 🧸 ❤ ♥ was to hug... but just the opportunity of being able to see it and being there was awesome...thanks for sharing love your channel...
your photography is pure art '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''i cried tor the teddy...........
Loved the slide show.
Awesome video thanks for taking us along!
I know how you are feeling Renee, been there done that. I went to an auction that had an antique doll collection. The first few dolls were going for 5- 7 thousand dollars, and I though Wow, here is old me expecting to buy something. Well good for me I stuck around from 5PM until midnight at that auction, and towards the end some of the "Leftovers" that were still good dolls were selling for $16. I still put $500 on my credit card. I know how to fix some things so I did get some bargains because of that. Now it is years later, and I am still working on some of those dolls, but they are so pretty when they are fixed up. I sold a few, but am trying to keep my favorites. I liked the slide show . That person who passed liked all the things I like too. I wish I had met her .
I only stayed for maybe 2 hours, but heard from a few other people that attended the auction that even at the end, prices didn't budge. With some of those items and how "fresh" they were to the market, it's no wonder prices were high (especially if any of the bidders were collectors or resellers to high-end markets). We will see if I'm able to go to the next one!
