We should appreciate what Vicky brings to the table for Peter. She's seems to always work hard and her pictures (what shows up online) are always so well done and that goes a long way toward garnering potential buyer interest.
So easy to let TH-cam keep playing these types of video one after the other- Pete has made his videos into proper episodes on par with stuff I'd watch on TV!
I can tell Vicky is a really good employee. Every single time I see her in your videos she’s always doing something. All your employees are really good that’s why your shop is doing so well.
The missiles are Nike-Hercules, originally deployed in 1958 and rendered obsolete in 1972 (so like the Army.) They were a blast (pun intended) to watch being fired. I was with an Air Defense Artillery unit in Korea and Vietnam from 1968-1971. Cool little models, you have there. Cold War/Vietnam War era.
I love the look on the guy’s face when he has them on the table. Like he’s sitting on the Holy Grail. He wants $100 a piece, yet doesn’t even know if the panes are glass or plastic, let alone know how to open them. These hustlers keep coming out of the woodwork.
Again man your offers are always the most generous I can almost never believe it 😂 but I love to see a reseller with some integrity. Telling people what you will resell for and what not explaining to them how you have to make money, politely. Idk man you seem great at this!
Why is it that almost every customer in your shop always leaves their ID in their car? Is that an east coast thing or something? My ID is always in my wallet, which is always in my pocket. I would never leave my ID or wallet in the car. Idk, I just find it strange.
I don’t know what it is, but it seems people in poverty lot of the time don’t carry their ID. I have zero clue what the correlation is. I see it in police videos all the time, too.
Pete, check closely on that drafting set you bought. The vintage lead holders go for good money. They are the pencils that hold thick lead and have chucks to hold the lead. Push the end of the handle to release the chucks and lead. $100 easy
Kitty laying in the doll bed is adorable. She’s like I laid in it now it is mine. If you had 2 it would be funny to see them both sleeping in the bunk beds.
My older brother had one of these sets, me and my other brother played with it during the late 60’s early 70’s. My older brother always said to me that I had all the ‘valuable’ stuff after my parents passed. Me and my other bro know full well he walked away with thousands worth of our old toys in VERY good condition. I have got all my Dad’s old art stuff (he was a draughtsman and illustrator) but most of it is worth very little. I keep it for sentiment really. My Dad’s 1946 Parker ink pen, which my grandparents bought for him when he joined the Royal Navy at 18 suspiciously disappeared (I can guess where!!) which in today’s money would be worth in the region of 12-15 hundred quid. My consolation is I have a lifetime that was filled with love and precious memories that are absolutely priceless.
@@islandgal500 millions of Spanish style properties use these. Trouble here is too many are fans of Pete. He knew 100pct these are worth way more than 20$. The seller is an idiot.
The two guys, the one with the jacket for sale and the other one in a grey t.shirt, they look like brothers, were they together or single "sellers"? Just curious
I think the lamps are pretty cool. Someone could paint them or do other neat things. I wonder where they owners had them? Three is a weird number, and they are so big, but not big enough to sit outside on the ground or something? They don’t hang…they aren’t coffee table or bedside table lamps. I guess the plastic ‘panes’ would suggest they are for patios and such?
there is a great song on Donald Fagens (steely Dan) solo album "Nightfly" called IGY named after the same year 1956 I beleive I would love that toy set just because of that song.
Plastic is softer and doesn't resonate the same way glass does when struck. Glass is known for that distinct ringing sound or a soft *tink* at the very least while plastic will almost always render a soft *thud* even for gentle taps. To perform this test, take a small rounded metal object like a penny or wedding ring.
Unless your house is a 4000 SF Medieval Revival, who is putting those ugly lights on their house? They're hideious. I wouldn't even dig those out of a dumpster.
What I don’t understand the people out there they keep buying expensive stuff and when they run out of money in there pockets they start selling their stuff and when they got offer for so cheap they get upset,The guy will buy it from I cheap so he can sell it and make profit that’s how Bussiness goes.So if u guys don’t want that feeling u get very low from your stuff stop buying and save your money because when that rainy day comes u have something to pull out simple is that.Be frugal in life that the key to have money in ur wallet.Things is just things but money is power.
Come out West you cannot even find them here. Maybe you should buy locally and list them online? here's the few currently on eBay...www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=wrought+iron+light+fixture+outdoor&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&rt=nc&LH_ItemCondition=10
$25.00 for the red, white and blue jacket was a rip off. I wouldn't want it but good luck finding any leather jacket for $25.00 The guy should have said more or at least dickered with Pete. Pete got a deal this time.
Yeah, the old standards "You guys have made plenty of dough off me before. On the flip side, his offer to take more store credit was a pretty smart one.

That old Arctic research toy camp replica looks to be the one from the late late 50s early 60s that was actually a real research Camp that later disappeared due to some catastrophic accident. Suggestion If you have the time and interest to do further research on the actual real camp and location and history of it, it could turn out to be something more to it do to the actual history facts. However as we all know the older it gets the more it's worth. You've been sitting on this for a long time which is probably a good thing for Value reasons. With that all said and consideration I suggest which you probably already know go high even if you have to sit on it even longer and lower the price $5 or more every 30 days when the listing renews. In the old days we would run a auction on this to achieve maximum sale price at any given time. And as we all know eBay auction ain't what it used to be.

Hey Pete how do you keep track of all that inventory? Especially some of the smaller stuff that might sit on eBay for years. When someone finally goes to buy it how the heck do you find it in the store?
Vicky is an Amazing employee; worth her weight in gold 🥰. As a bonus Pete should remake her office over with a lovely new large corner desk with lots of shelves , a brand new large screen, top of the range computer and new storage shelves. Something that feels and looks nice when you walk in. Where she works now looks like a storage room. 😩😨😐. She is worth it 10 times over . 🥰
You have a gem there for an employee Pete. Even when she thinks she is alone, she is busting her butt to do quality work/pics. Kudos !!! 👍☘️
Absolutely shout out to all those gem workers 🙌

They could sell for $100 a piece to the right buyer

The "International Geophysical Year" was during 1957-1958. According to the interwebs this set was produced by Marx in 1958.
