I think prices should be less than retail and a good deal leaving room for profit for the resale. I don't think 10 dollars for a resale of 250 is ok..Sad for the deceased who left this for family.
@@poppadoc5614 the owner was not deceased. He moved and no longer wanted the items. Family needed to liquidate fast. When that happens, it’s just impossible for estate sale dealers to research every item so treasures will often be found at great value. Bottom line is that if you want max value for a collection, do not have an estate sale. You have to sell it yourself to collectors.
Love all the items you listed but as I got older, I realized my kids would not enjoy the same items I did. I gifted some of my collectibles to relatives that would appreciate them and sold the rest. I'd be rolling in my grave knowing that my kids would be selling my items for literally pennies on the dollar like these people did! 😔
I just told my children to keep what they want and auction off the rest. It's my collection for my enjoyment. I may sell off pieces as I collect others, but I love colorful well made glass.
Just seeing that full construction dumpster in front of the house indicates what a chore it was to go through that house, clear out the junk and then organize the valuable things for the estate sale. It's good that they were able to separate the treasures from the trash and get a little something for it, even if it was pennies on the dollar. It's also nice that resellers were able to buy the stuff and then find interested buyers who truly wanted it.
I CANNOT believe how cheap the prices were. My husband asked if I was ok because I kept flipping out snd getting all crazy! I would ❤️ to find a sale with great prices like that🙏
LOL. I know what you mean. Last night I was watching another reseller and I started screaming and almost stopped breathing when I saw him pick up an item and leave it. When he went back and got it I could feel myself breathing again. LOL
Wow! You can’t buy Swarovski at those prices at estate sales near me. You got some amazing pieces. Also the Murano glass items were a steal. And for the record, I always enjoyed your “what sold” videos. Happy New Year!
I'm so happy to have found you. This was an unbelievable sale. I wanted so many of the Oriental items. Those vases were fabulous. There wasn't much there that I don't collect. As I read what one viewer mentioned, young people, unless they were introduced at a young age into Antiqueing they really view others as " OLD STUFF."😢 THANK YOU, FOR SHARING. I subscribed.
You are so right. This is why I am making a second large donation from my cat collection to a nearby Museum of the American House Cat. Books, figurines, jewelry, prints, photographs, and videos of my present cat, Florence Adele, whose life I'm recording in journals and cartoons of her antics. When I die, I trust someone will gather those and donate them to the same cat museum in Sylva, NC.
@rlbhartmann6902 omgosh, I was born in Sylva! That's where ¹my mother was from. As we say in the South, my people are from there. We are Wards. We have always had our family reunion there, but think it's changing to my cousin's in Hendersonville. I'll have to check out the cat museum.
I was lucky enough to help my parents downsize while they were still alive and well. It took me two months and I got to spend time with my whole family at one time. We had fun, some of it was hard, my mom was a mild hoarder, but very neat and clean, so nobody ever knew. We all took the things that meant a lot to us. We donated a lot to a woman’s shelter, so my mom felt good. It’s nice to know that we won’t have to go through this when my parents head off to the pearly gates. They feel good living in a small, easy to care for condo, not thinking about whose problem all their stuff would be. *** I scanned a lot of family photos and put them on a digital frame for them and they were thrilled.
The bottle at 29:23 is not carnival glass, it's a hand-blown piece from Lundberg Studios Art Glass, they are still in business in California and have a website. That particular piece is a perfume bottle, retail on the perfume bottles is $252.
Not terrifying at all, I promise. All you have to do is understand the basic principles of shipping glass, which is wrapping the item adequately with paper or bubble wrap, place in a strong padded box, fill all void spaces, and double box. That’s it. Super easy. I have videos on shipping breakables, including glass. See my playlist and click shipping. Also, see my feedback on eBay.
You should also shine your black light on glass, porcelain, and ceramic pieces because it shows cracks. I use my black light to authenticate vaseline glass, which glows neon yellow or neon green under black light. I have quite a collection. I don't think vaseline glass is made anymore because the product in the glass that causes it to glow was deemed unsafe (maybe lead or something), so any vaseline glass you see is at least vintage, if not antique. An interesting thing I read about black lights also is that you can use them to look for tomato slugs on your tomato plants because, apparently, they glow green. I was not able (maybe thankfully) to find any tomato slugs, BUT, I found their trails, you know, the slimy stuff, and THEY glow under the black light.
I believe the little jar with the ashtray at 37:39 would hold cigarettes. Foreign cigarettes are usually smaller than American ones. First time seeing your post-what an amazing estate sale! Enjoyed very much.
Dom, @ 35:58 that large piece of white coral can be worth a fair chunk of change. Maybe research that? I think you might be surprised. ♥️ What a phenomenal sale Dom and it appears your instincts are taking you in the right direction…good for you! Great video.
First time watching & Ive already subscribed. That was an incredible estate sale. Paperweights & crystal flowers were stunning!! Reasonable prices too. I live for sales like this! Been subscribed to a few other you tube resellers for years & I just came across your channel so now I have to catch up!🤗
28:00…to the right of the vase in your hand…on the table, is possibly an Emile Gallé vase. It’s green and cream or yellow…the flowers are bas relief…they are dark with dark stems and leaves. Also sometimes called Cameo glass due to the fact that they have a 3 dimensional look. I can’t tell for certain..could be in the style of, but Gallé glass is very desirable and can be $$$. Seeing this house had a glass collector, that would probably be one to pick up. Look for something like that in the future..they are very distinctive, signed Gallé in script. Curious if anyone else thought the same. Lots of gorgeous glass in that sale! Ty for showing us how to choose what types of items resell well. First time here..subbed!
We're you squealing too? 🤣🤣 I also think theres a green squatty Loetz piece to the right of the possible Galle. Albeit when it comes to Galle there are so many fakes on the market. What got my attention was the possible antique etched French cameo glass piece, large vase, mauve blue on white at 33:21. If it is a true cameo & not painted, that's a $2k - $3,000 piece right there.. At the end of the day though, the learning is the invaluable part 😉😉
@@modemarose4497 YES! There were some really nice pieces at this sale. I just love art glass. You are right about the Galle fakes. I was trying to zoom in on them. I was like..”hey, anyone who wants to take me with them to identify glass I’m all in!” But I only know glass, not too many other items. Fun watching! 🔎🧐😊
You should have grabbed that little vase that you called carnival glass! It’s a Lundberg Studio piece worth at least $200.00 (even said so on the tag!!) It’s much rarer than any Murano piece…
Yup, in all the years of watching your channel, this is the most I have seen you spend. No doubt there is profit to be had. Their prices were so good! My favorite piece was the murano ashtray. So pretty.
Great video & my favorite estate sale! I’ve never seen prices that low at any estate sale I’ve been to. There was so much beautiful glass, it was overwhelming to watch. Bravo on the great haul! I’ve started watching Crazy Lamp Lady, based on your recommendation. She’s so knowledgeable & fun to watch, as well.
My Great Grandmother had given me a huge collection of salt and pepper shakers. This was is 1978. I was 18…what am I going to do with all these salt and pepper shakers. Sold all 100+ sets at a garage sale literally for like $2.00 set. To this day, I regret this sooo much! I’m sure that little black sambo set sold for quite a bit!!!
I know everyone has already said it but it truly is your best video ever. I love glass so I was totally mesmerized. Unbelievable great prices. I was amazed that you are able to shop and talk with all of those people in the background talking Also. But it actually made it even more fun. Love how you share your knowledge, I have learned so much watching your channel. And I know you love sharing the information.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I've never seen so much glass at one place. It is definitely a challenge filming the vids while sourcing and talking at the same time. Glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching!
It's definitely a lifetime estate sale! Those paper weights were wonderful, and you left a few goodies. But you did great. Would love to find one of those estate sales of a lifetime.
Incredible prices for incredible finds. The duck trinket box from India is not ceramic, they do not produce ceramics, only items in wood, brass or stone. It was probably some natural stone, such as soapstone, like the 2nd little carved trinket box. The "filtration" system on the small teapot was because they didn't have teabags. Tea was made with loose tea leaves, that kept the leaves from going into the drinking cup.
That’s so sad that people think tea comes in bags. I guess they don’t know LOCKING beautiful old English tea caddies in beautiful burl woods and inlaid pearl or ivory and silver either.
The pontil, or punty, is a solid metal rod that is usually tipped with a wad of hot glass, then applied to the BASE of a vessel to hold it while the glassblower shapes the form. It often leaves an irregular or ring-shaped scar on the base when removed. This is called the “pontil mark.” (The pontil mark is always on the base of the vessel, and is NOT formed by the blow pipe.)
Wow, wow, wow. Those prices. That glass. I would have been sweating and shaking! I'm just a crafter, not a reseller but i have learned so much from all of you. I probably would have bought every beautiful piece of glass there! What a honey hole.
OMG I never been to nor seen any video on you tube w/an estate sale like that!!!! I’d have had a hard time asking how much for everything 😁You really hit the mother load👍🏼
I like how the CLL just buys what she likes and most of the time her gut instinct is on the money, sometimes not but she just buys things and goes for it. Sometimes it's not always about buying to learn, it's actually buying things that aren't in every person's neck of the woods.
You have such good estate sales in your area. Good job on picking up nice valuable glassware. I recently picked up 10 Swarovski Figures at an estate sale for $10 each. I have sold several so far, fairly quickly. Thanks for the video!
Hey Prime Time. I’ve been watching your. Videos for awhile now. I live in Georgia now but I was born,and raised in upstate NY. I’m originally from Evans Mills, NY which is located just a few minutes north of Watertown. I used to be a fire fighter-EMT and after watching some of your stuff I pulled out my old ENS belt holster that I used to carry EMS tools in. Now it contains a multi tool, my mini msg light, etc. and now after watching this video I I ordered an ultraviolet flashlight to add to my treasure hunting kit. Thanks for the idea. I enjoy watching your finds, learning new stuff from you,-and getting to see some of the old areas I used to frequent. Thank You.
New subscriber! Great sale. Loved that you are willing and open about learning new areas of collecting. Fav item was the Swarovski love bird piece! Love Daisy such a cutie!
Another awesome, awesome estate sale. I am so happy for you. Daisy is as cute as ever. Hope you’re back online with some wonderful estate sales very soon.♥️♥️♥️
For the bowl you showed at 30:08, you could also use the word "bullicante" in your title and description. Bullicante means full of bubbles. They're usually controlled or patterned bubbles.
So glad we got to see this sale because of you. Awesome collection and you got a lot of great items. I learned a couple new things also. Hope they sell quickly for you. I didn’t know you collated with Jocelyn, I’ll have to look for those. Good to see your little lion too 🦁
Thanks! Just go back a bit on my vids a little bit and you will see a video called Crazy Finds with Crazy Lamp Lady. If you go to her FB page, you will her tag me recently in two vids we did together.
At 37:31, he's trying to help the guy get the chip off his shoulder!! 😂😂 Amazing estate sale, great bargains. I love your attitude of constantly learning about new things!! Thank you! This is my favorite video of yours so far!!
I have a house filled with Asian items old and new....if I was at this sale, my house would be more full!. So my favorite was the little orange Asian vase with the little bird on it. Runner up the framed duck art.....fantastic. The religious art print I believe is from the Book of Kells. This video was quite the adventure!
I noticed you wrapped all your glass pieces as you went along. Did they have to unwrap each item as you checked out or did you take a photo of each item prior to wrapping them up?
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter thank you for responding! I was really curious, lol. I'm a lover of all things glass and always keep paper with me just in case. Bummer about the airplane, but it happens to us all.
Lundberg studio is highly desirable art glass, perfume bottle for 75 would have been great! You would have done well to look up each one, you passed on great pieces, including jar in cabinet🥰
Yes, I did not realize about the Lundberg. Now I know. I probably should’ve picked up more paper weights, but wanted to ease into this area. My first time sourcing class paper. I’ll use what I learned from this sale for the future.
Not a loon, LOL. one of the things i like most about your channel is your sense of humor. Not to overshadow the fact you find great stuff and are very informative. I really appreciate anyone who doesn't take themselves to seriously. and I am one of the people who commented on the black duck/loon, Im in Minnesota its our state bird. I was nice about it:) lol....... KEEP ON BEING REAL!!!
LOL, thanks Bruce. I have long lived by a quote of Shakespeare which is that the fool thinks he is a wise man. The wise man knows he's a fool. :) Oh, and I messed up with the black and white ducks AGAIN at the end of this video...they are geese. lol
I like clear cut crystal. I get it inexpensively because others devalue it. I pick that any day over color. Unless it blood glass or ruby red. Which isn't as sought after either. Brilliant glass goes for Good money.
Yeah, I definitely love some good paperweights behind but it was my first time sourcing glass paperweight so I didn’t want to go to overboard. Next time I’ll definitely grab more.
Wow great stuff. I'm wondering what the other people were even buying. You seemed to be taking your time and all of those nice pieces were just sitting there with no one else grabbing at them. My heart was beating fast hoping you could grab all of that crystal.
I grabbed what I could where I was at. I was able to get tons of stuff so I don’t concern myself with what other people are buying because it’s a given that other customers will also get lots of stuff. There’s plenty for everyone and I definitely loaded up.
Probably the most profitable estate sale. Watching your video, one would never know that this niche is relatively new for you. The amount of knowledge that you have acquired is pretty amazing. Thank you for making this entertaining even if this is something I rarely purchase, but I still have it stored in my memory just in case.
The iridescent glass vessel with stopper isn't carnival glass... The tag on it said 'Lundberg Studio 1999'. At $75 dollars it would still have been a bargain, and you could have doubled or tripled your investment. I'm curious why you didn't take a moment to do an image search or google the name 'Lundberg'. It was right there on the tag!
Because glass is a new area I am sourcing in and when I’m starting off in a new area, I tend to stay away from higher priced items. Now I know for the future.
This sale was interesting. Wonder if all the glass was displayed. Very nice pieces and thought your total was going to be more. Hope everything sells well. Great sale for the New Year! Sweet Daisy is always nice to see at the end of the videos. Love her little poof on the top of her head!
Hi... if an art piece has the info and/or photo of the Artist on the back, it usually means it came from an Art Gallery or an Artist's Studio... the art could be worth a lot... I also noticed the works were signed & perhaps numbered. That is also a clue of art that may be of a higher value. I had a real feeling about the 2nd art piece at the end. After the ducks! The one that you said was wood block by Utamaro. My reserach shows that this is an antique piece for sure, & it may be very valuable. The artist Utamato lived 1753 - 1806... so if it's an original piece from the artist, it's approximately two hundred years old or maybe even older. Heres the info I copied & pasted 4U: *Known as the best woodblock print maker in Japan? Kitagawa Utamaro [c. 1753-1806] is considered by many to be one of greatest of all Japanese woodblock artists due to his inventive style, bold use of light and dark tones and, particularly, his sublime portraits of beautiful women, such as this piece from 1798, A Woman Wiping Sweat. Congratulations on an amazing estate sale treasure collection and Good luck for the framed pieces & all the others... Value galore!!
When my FIL passed my MIL was to move in with a relative. They all decided to just donate most all the stuff to put the house up for sale. I am not sure any of them knew what was of value or not. We have to realize that people handle things differently and everyone handles the process in their own way. My mom loves shopping estate sales so she would be super happy for people to find treasures.
Amazing estate sale and haul my friend. You've really quite the dive into art glass and related - way to go and shipping isn't very hard at all. So many Swarovski and Murano pieces!! I was shocked at the prices - almost garage sale pricing - what a score!! I might would have kept the tortoise glass vase even with that tiny chip - I sold a couple/few Fenton pieces like that - simply disclosed the blemish - the buyer can hide the chip when displaying and you can price to move it and still make some money - that said, without a makers mark and given the size and some small risk in shipping, it's not horrible to have passed on it either. We'll done overall PT - $582 well spent!! CHA CHING!!
Thanks Dave! I have a few chipped items right now and want to see some of those sell before I intentionally pick up more. Some ppl act like a tiny chip is equivalent to half of the item missing lol. And yes, shipping glass is really not that hard. Just have to follow some basic concepts shown in other videos.
36:00 I'm not an expert but I learned this from Lady Mary Beth. Begin by looking at the bottom for wear, check the mark (she's very knowledgeable on the marks also) and remember that some 'hairline cracks' can simply be a sign of age, which could be a good thing because there is a thing called 'stress fractures'. It's simply because it's old. If there's no chip that caused the crack is another thing to remember.
Awesome crystal and glass scores. The pieces with bubbles are called Bullicante it is Italian for controlled bubbles and is a collectable feature on its own.
Great job! Nicely done video. It’s enjoyable to shop with you. I can tell you’ve been doing this for awhile. Love the glass items. I shop at antique shops. You’ve given me some valuable tips.
I prefer estate sales over auctions because the items are usually priced;but auctions can get some very valuable items for little or nothing or very expensive. It is a gamble
Shut the front door and lock it, I'll take it all LOL Cheetah print - cased glass vase! On the table - the Lundberg for sure and I see a cameo vase in front of that and all of iridescent glass that looks like carnival glass. Oh just everything lol. Such amazing prices - a dream estate sale for sure! Thanks so much for sharing!
Great video! Looks like awesome prices. At about 25:00 in on the paperweight table there was an iridescent piece in the front. Looked like Fentons Dave Fetty hanging hearts piece. You got a lot of great finds!
WOW what a sale!! I love Swarovski crystal!! I bought many small animal pieces in the 80's for 15 to 20 a piece. Prices have gone up so much since then!! Love all the items you got, what great deals!!
Oh my goodness, this was the most amazing sale I have ever seen. You hit the jackpot on it!! Congratulations 🎉 How exciting to watch, well exciting with a little jealousy. lol. 😅
It's the Prime Time philosophy. Do not worry about missing out on treasures in other rooms when you have treasures sitting right in front of you. Also, have confidence that your knowledge will allow you to find valuable items that others missed.
Wow, that sale blew my mind- omg!! I’m just shocked at the low prices!! Incredible!! Wow, so much fun to watch. My heart would have been pounding, trying to decide & scoop! Great video!!
It so cute you trying to explain glas making!! I am a glas blower/maker. Yes its where the rod is attached but that peice you showed isnt blown its actually rolled while its hot into small colored peices ❤😂😂
Hey Dom, wow what a sale. I know the glass is definitely worth buying but just looking at all possible breaking points gave me the shakes. Thanks for another great video, Randy.
LOL.Thanks Randy. I understand the fear but shipping glass is pretty easy once you know the core concepts. I have shown this in other shipping videos but the keep is to adequately wrap the ite, pad the bottom of the pox, fill all void space, double box, and not hearing any shaking once packed up. Do that and you will be fine. I have literally never had an item break using this process, large or small, with any shipping service.
That house was obviously owned by a retired sailor in the Navy who had been based in Japan and Italy ...I have uncles that were based in both countries and their wives collected the same stuff...it is all very 70's 80's and even 90's in designs...One uncle even picked up an Italian wife in Venezia and another a wife in Kyoto!!!

No one has mentioned how terrifying it would be to ship those safely. Need a video on how you pack glass safely

I was like..”hey, anyone who wants to take me with them to identify glass I’m all in!” But I only know glass, not too many other items. Fun watching! 🔎🧐😊
velvet matting.
the black and white might be a brush painting
@@specialblackburn8541 I thought it was a Gallie too.😊
Least not forget, this was someone’s life collections. They were alive and appreciate these things tht are left behind. Sad.
True, but now I will be passing it on to others which will make them happy.
@@jackking2461 That's the problem! A person spends a lifetime collecting expensive things and their spouses or kids consider it junk.
Yeah but better than all that stuff getting thrown away…
@@jackking2461 good point
@@CampingforCool41 true!
You should have grabbed that little vase that you called carnival glass! It’s a Lundberg Studio piece worth at least $200.00 (even said so on the tag!!)
It’s much rarer than any Murano piece…
Maybe but the buy in was $75 and I made much more profit on the Murano pieces given the low buy in on those
Yup, in all the years of watching your channel, this is the most I have seen you spend. No doubt there is profit to be had. Their prices were so good! My favorite piece was the murano ashtray. So pretty.
Thank you! That’s one of my favorite pieces as well. I currently have that one listed on eBay.
Great video & my favorite estate sale! I’ve never seen prices that low at any estate sale I’ve been to. There was so much beautiful glass, it was overwhelming to watch. Bravo on the great haul! I’ve started watching Crazy Lamp Lady, based on your recommendation. She’s so knowledgeable & fun to watch, as well.
Thanks Sandy. She is great. She has helped me build up the knowledge to go to a sale like this!
My Great Grandmother had given me a huge collection of salt and pepper shakers. This was is 1978. I was 18…what am I going to do with all these salt and pepper shakers. Sold all 100+ sets at a garage sale literally for like $2.00 set. To this day, I regret this sooo much! I’m sure that little black sambo set sold for quite a bit!!!
Oh yes, I love sourcing and selling salt and pepper shakers. Can’t sell the sambo sets on eBay though.
I know everyone has already said it but it truly is your best video ever. I love glass so I was totally mesmerized. Unbelievable great prices. I was amazed that you are able to shop and talk with all of those people in the background talking Also. But it actually made it even more fun. Love how you share your knowledge, I have learned so much watching your channel. And I know you love sharing the information.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I've never seen so much glass at one place. It is definitely a challenge filming the vids while sourcing and talking at the same time. Glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching!
It's definitely a lifetime estate sale! Those paper weights were wonderful, and you left a few goodies. But you did great. Would love to find one of those estate sales of a lifetime.
Thanks! Go to enough sales and eventually one will come up!
I have a box of the jellyfish ones I bought from a shop in the Keys. Apparently, I should put them on eBay. I paid 2 bucks each. They’re not vintage.
Incredible prices for incredible finds. The duck trinket box from India is not ceramic, they do not produce ceramics, only items in wood, brass or stone. It was probably some natural stone, such as soapstone, like the 2nd little carved trinket box. The "filtration" system on the small teapot was because they didn't have teabags. Tea was made with loose tea leaves, that kept the leaves from going into the drinking cup.
Makes sense on the tea and yes, I agree that it is likely a type of stone. Thanks for commenting
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunterand the first small one was not for a votive, but usually amber. incense.
That’s so sad that people think tea comes in bags. I guess they don’t know LOCKING beautiful old English tea caddies in beautiful burl woods and inlaid pearl or ivory and silver either.
The pontil, or punty, is a solid metal rod that is usually tipped with a wad of hot glass, then applied to the BASE of a vessel to hold it while the glassblower shapes the form. It often leaves an irregular or ring-shaped scar on the base when removed. This is called the “pontil mark.”
(The pontil mark is always on the base of the vessel, and is NOT formed by the blow pipe.)
Ok. Pretty close
Wow, wow, wow. Those prices. That glass. I would have been sweating and shaking! I'm just a crafter, not a reseller but i have learned so much from all of you. I probably would have bought every beautiful piece of glass there! What a honey hole.
Thanks! Glad you liked the vid!
My favorite one ever! Loved the purple lotus flower!
Thanks Melanie! So glad you enjoyed it!
OMG I never been to nor seen any video on you tube w/an estate sale like that!!!! I’d have had a hard time asking how much for everything 😁You really hit the mother load👍🏼
Thanks Sally! That’s why I’m the Prime Time Treasure Hunter. I seek out sales like this 😃
I wouldn’t miss the “double tap”, but I love your videos. I think you have certainly learned a lot and you are teaching many people. Thank you!
Thanks Cindy! If I decrease the double taps, I start getting complaints. LOL
Wow I’m glad I was part of this. Thank you so much
Thanks Lorraine!
Really, really enjoying this video with explanations. Even during a busy sale you still take time to explain and feature. Best yet!!!
Thanks so much! Glad you like the explanations! Appreciate you watching!
I like how the CLL just buys what she likes and most of the time her gut instinct is on the money, sometimes not but she just buys things and goes for it. Sometimes it's not always about buying to learn, it's actually buying things that aren't in every person's neck of the woods.
Yes, well, that’s what I did here because I have never sourced this much glass I. My life lol
Fellow CLL follower here!! Love your finds!!
Thank you! 🙏
Wow! So many gorgeous pieces! Oh my gosh & the prices. What an awesome sale!❤️
Estate sale of a lifetime!
For sure!!!
You have such good estate sales in your area. Good job on picking up nice valuable glassware. I recently picked up 10 Swarovski Figures at an estate sale for $10 each. I have sold several so far, fairly quickly. Thanks for the video!
Thanks! yes, they sell pretty fast! Good finds on your part!
Hey Prime Time. I’ve been watching your. Videos for awhile now. I live in Georgia now but I was born,and raised in upstate NY. I’m originally from Evans Mills, NY which is located just a few minutes north of Watertown. I used to be a fire fighter-EMT and after watching some of your stuff I pulled out my old ENS belt holster that I used to carry EMS tools in. Now it contains a multi tool, my mini msg light, etc. and now after watching this video I I ordered an ultraviolet flashlight to add to my treasure hunting kit. Thanks for the idea.
I enjoy watching your finds, learning new stuff from you,-and getting to see some of the old areas I used to frequent.
Thank You.
Thant's great to hear, Marcus. glad to bring some joy to your day! Thanks for watching!
This was one of my favorite videos that you've ever done! Wow! You found some incredible stuff!
Thanks! If you get a chance, check out my video, Best Estate Sale Ever!
New subscriber! Great sale. Loved that you are willing and open about learning new areas of collecting. Fav item was the Swarovski love bird piece! Love Daisy such a cutie!
Thanks for watching! Welcome to the Prime Time family! Having fun expanding into glass! Just listed the lovebirds. Daisy says hi!
I have that piece!
Another awesome, awesome estate sale. I am so happy for you. Daisy is as cute as ever. Hope you’re back online with some wonderful estate sales very soon.♥️♥️♥️
Thanks Holley! Next estate sale video will be lots of fun too!
What a moron for not getting everything if that’s what you do for a living
I see people at thrift stores nonstop looking for the things he passed up all year long
For the bowl you showed at 30:08, you could also use the word "bullicante" in your title and description. Bullicante means full of bubbles. They're usually controlled or patterned bubbles.
Yes, I actually did include that in the title of the listing, but the full listing title is not showing on the screen.
So glad we got to see this sale because of you. Awesome collection and you got a lot of great items. I learned a couple new things also. Hope they sell quickly for you. I didn’t know you collated with Jocelyn, I’ll have to look for those. Good to see your little lion too 🦁
Thanks! Just go back a bit on my vids a little bit and you will see a video called Crazy Finds with Crazy Lamp Lady. If you go to her FB page, you will her tag me recently in two vids we did together.
This video is by far the BEST I have EVER seen by you. xoxo
Thanks Linda! I appreciate it!
At 37:31, he's trying to help the guy get the chip off his shoulder!! 😂😂
Amazing estate sale, great bargains. I love your attitude of constantly learning about new things!! Thank you! This is my favorite video of yours so far!!
LOL Good one! Thanks Carla! There is so much to learn it just never stops. Glass has opened up a whole new world to me! Thanks for watching!
😂
You excitement is contagious 😅😅😅 Sending lots of love to your precious a half doggy, half … crocodile 😅😅😅
Thank you!!!
I have a house filled with Asian items old and new....if I was at this sale, my house would be more full!. So my favorite was the little orange Asian vase with the little bird on it. Runner up the framed duck art.....fantastic. The religious art print I believe is from the Book of Kells. This video was quite the adventure!
Thanks! After bit more research I think the framed art is Japanese geese and reeds. I may take it out of the frame to sell online
Seeing the quality of collection is beyond amazing🥰
Thanks Gisela!
Right!! The family would have done better auctioning off these beautiful items! 😢
@@1purplekw not all families have the time or resources to do that though
I noticed you wrapped all your glass pieces as you went along. Did they have to unwrap each item as you checked out or did you take a photo of each item prior to wrapping them up?
He probably had someone keeping tabs so he will be ready to go.😅❤❤
Great question. We did have to unwrap them at the end but it did not take that long fortunately. :)
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter thank you for responding! I was really curious, lol. I'm a lover of all things glass and always keep paper with me just in case. Bummer about the airplane, but it happens to us all.
@@vintagestufflover7020 yup, still kicking myself over that one! ✈️
Thank you so much for sharing, was in awe of the items you showed, precious everyone. Love from South Africa.
The bubbles in the glass are called bullicante. You want uniform pattern. Also, Murano will have a polished bottom not cloudy
Correct - The cockatoo had a cloudy bottom so that certainly wasn’t Murano unfortunately
Thanks for the info! I have them didn’t know name for bubbles.
@@sherifox2612they are also sometimes called controlled bubbles.
I finally got a chance to watch and this video was epic!! Such a great estate sale!! Luv watching your vids 😊
Thanks Jenni!
Lundberg studio is highly desirable art glass, perfume bottle for 75 would have been great! You would have done well to look up each one, you passed on great pieces, including jar in cabinet🥰
Yes, I did not realize about the Lundberg. Now I know. I probably should’ve picked up more paper weights, but wanted to ease into this area. My first time sourcing class paper. I’ll use what I learned from this sale for the future.
Not a loon, LOL. one of the things i like most about your channel is your sense of humor. Not to overshadow the fact you find great stuff and are very informative. I really appreciate anyone who doesn't take themselves to seriously. and I am one of the people who commented on the black duck/loon, Im in Minnesota its our state bird. I was nice about it:) lol....... KEEP ON BEING REAL!!!
LOL, thanks Bruce. I have long lived by a quote of Shakespeare which is that the fool thinks he is a wise man. The wise man knows he's a fool. :) Oh, and I messed up with the black and white ducks AGAIN at the end of this video...they are geese. lol
His sense of humor also adds to his charm!!!
@@lynneb6898 lol thanks Lynne
I’m literally drooling! Jaw dropped the ENTIRE video!!
Keep winning Primetime 🙌🏻💝
Thanks Jessy! So many brightly colored items I figured you would like!
I like clear cut crystal. I get it inexpensively because others devalue it. I pick that any day over color. Unless it blood glass or ruby red. Which isn't as sought after either. Brilliant glass goes for Good money.
@@ozarkzoe I’m still waiting to find clear glass that’s valuable. I know it’s out there but I just haven’t come across it yet.
Wish you had picked up the Glass Eye paper weights. I would love to have been at that sale to grab those up.
Yeah, I definitely love some good paperweights behind but it was my first time sourcing glass paperweight so I didn’t want to go to overboard. Next time I’ll definitely grab more.
Wow great stuff. I'm wondering what the other people were even buying. You seemed to be taking your time and all of those nice pieces were just sitting there with no one else grabbing at them. My heart was beating fast hoping you could grab all of that crystal.
I grabbed what I could where I was at. I was able to get tons of stuff so I don’t concern myself with what other people are buying because it’s a given that other customers will also get lots of stuff. There’s plenty for everyone and I definitely loaded up.
So exciting 😊
Wow, best glass sale I've ever seen. Yes, Jocelyn the crazy lamp lady would be so envious.
Yup! I let her know about it 😃
What an amazing sale! Such great prices!! Truly incredible!!
Thanks for bringing some positivity!
Probably the most profitable estate sale. Watching your video, one would never know that this niche is relatively new for you. The amount of knowledge that you have acquired is pretty amazing. Thank you for making this entertaining even if this is something I rarely purchase, but I still have it stored in my memory just in case.
The iridescent glass vessel with stopper isn't carnival glass...
The tag on it said 'Lundberg Studio 1999'. At $75 dollars it would still have been a bargain, and you could have doubled or tripled your investment. I'm curious why you didn't take a moment to do an image search or google the name 'Lundberg'. It was right there on the tag!
Because glass is a new area I am sourcing in and when I’m starting off in a new area, I tend to stay away from higher priced items. Now I know for the future.
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter you need to learn more... the 75 buck piece was steal.... and it's mark on end of glass is putty not what u said.....😊
@@clarannbjers3208 no kidding. We all need to learn more.
My favorite piece is the purple/pink murano horn vase. Just beautiful!
Just sold it today!
Someone got a beautiful piece!!
@@Maricole47 yup! Sold fast!
Missed most of the LIVE BUT I am watching now and no wonder you were sweating 🥵 Best estate sale, OMG. Congratulations 🎊
Thank you very much!
I would have lost my mind in there. I can't believe the prices. You got some really good stuff.
Thanks Carol! lol it was great!
Amazing pieces. I am totally jealous. Great estate sale and video!
Thanks so much! It was a blast for sure!
My stepdad worked at sworkwi for years and I have things that were not for the public and he's retirement gift was a diamond shape very big
Wow!
This sale was interesting. Wonder if all the glass was displayed. Very nice pieces and thought your total was going to be more. Hope everything sells well. Great sale for the New Year! Sweet Daisy is always nice to see at the end of the videos. Love her little poof on the top of her head!
Thanks! Had lots of fun at this sale. Mrs Prime Time makes that poof on her head lol
AMAZING!! Your heart must have almost been beating out of your chest! Well done!
Hi... if an art piece has the info and/or photo of the Artist on the back, it usually means it came from an Art Gallery or an Artist's Studio... the art could be worth a lot... I also noticed the works were signed & perhaps numbered. That is also a clue of art that may be of a higher value.
I had a real feeling about the 2nd art piece at the end. After the ducks! The one that you said was wood block by Utamaro. My reserach shows that this is an antique piece for sure, &
it may be very valuable. The artist Utamato lived 1753 - 1806... so if it's an original piece from the artist, it's approximately two hundred years old or maybe even older.
Heres the info I copied & pasted 4U:
*Known as the best woodblock print maker in Japan?
Kitagawa Utamaro [c. 1753-1806] is considered by many to be one of greatest of all Japanese woodblock artists due to his inventive style, bold use of light and dark tones and, particularly, his sublime portraits of beautiful women, such as this piece from 1798, A Woman Wiping Sweat.
Congratulations on an amazing estate sale treasure collection and Good luck for the framed pieces & all the others... Value galore!!
Thanks! Great research consistent with my own. I have it up for auction now on eBay! Fingers crossed!
When my FIL passed my MIL was to move in with a relative. They all decided to just donate most all the stuff to put the house up for sale. I am not sure any of them knew what was of value or not. We have to realize that people handle things differently and everyone handles the process in their own way. My mom loves shopping estate sales so she would be super happy for people to find treasures.
Great sale, Prime Time! Love the things you picked up. I love the Murano glass and the crystals you found. Good job!👍🥰💜
Thanks Sharon!
Amazing estate sale and haul my friend. You've really quite the dive into art glass and related - way to go and shipping isn't very hard at all. So many Swarovski and Murano pieces!! I was shocked at the prices - almost garage sale pricing - what a score!! I might would have kept the tortoise glass vase even with that tiny chip - I sold a couple/few Fenton pieces like that - simply disclosed the blemish - the buyer can hide the chip when displaying and you can price to move it and still make some money - that said, without a makers mark and given the size and some small risk in shipping, it's not horrible to have passed on it either. We'll done overall PT - $582 well spent!! CHA CHING!!
Thanks Dave! I have a few chipped items right now and want to see some of those sell before I intentionally pick up more. Some ppl act like a tiny chip is equivalent to half of the item missing lol. And yes, shipping glass is really not that hard. Just have to follow some basic concepts shown in other videos.
36:00 I'm not an expert but I learned this from Lady Mary Beth. Begin by looking at the bottom for wear, check the mark (she's very knowledgeable on the marks also) and remember that some 'hairline cracks' can simply be a sign of age, which could be a good thing because there is a thing called 'stress fractures'. It's simply because it's old. If there's no chip that caused the crack is another thing to remember.
Ok thank you
Awesome crystal and glass scores. The pieces with bubbles are called Bullicante it is Italian for controlled bubbles and is a collectable feature on its own.
Yes, correct. I have the term bullicante in the title of the listing shown on screen
Lots of nice things. Hope you do well with all of it. Daisy is so sweet.
Thanks Barb! Daisy says thanks!
Great job! Nicely done video. It’s enjoyable to shop with you. I can tell you’ve been doing this for awhile. Love the glass items.
I shop at antique shops. You’ve given me some valuable tips.
Thanks so much! That means alot!
I prefer estate sales over auctions because the items are usually priced;but auctions can get some very valuable items for little or nothing or very expensive. It is a gamble
Yep, I prefer estate sales too!
Shut the front door and lock it, I'll take it all LOL Cheetah print - cased glass vase! On the table - the Lundberg for sure and I see a cameo vase in front of that and all of iridescent glass that looks like carnival glass. Oh just everything lol. Such amazing prices - a dream estate sale for sure! Thanks so much for sharing!
Guess I should have grabbed that Lundberg lol. It was so crazy lol great use of icons VVV
THATS WHY THESE SALES ARE SO MUCH FUN, PEOPLE WANT EVERYTHING GONE !
RIGHT!!!!
I love how you share the best information or your viewers as well 😊
Thanks MG!
Great video! Looks like awesome prices. At about 25:00 in on the paperweight table there was an iridescent piece in the front. Looked like Fentons Dave Fetty hanging hearts piece. You got a lot of great finds!
Thanks! I have now learned that hanging hearts on paperweights are good to look for. :)
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Google Dave Fetty hanging hearts. You'll get the idea. 😀
@@LetterArtist yup! Already done and in the PT memory bank
That sale was absolutely incredible, good eye!
Thank you!!
Lots of lovely art glass! The latticino paperweight was my favorite but it was hard to choose.
Loved that one! I have it listed on eBay right now
Awesome…. So happy for you thanks for taking us along!
Thanks for watching!
WOW what a sale!! I love Swarovski crystal!! I bought many small animal pieces in the 80's for 15 to 20 a piece. Prices have gone up so much since then!! Love all the items you got, what great deals!!
Thanks! The flowers are great too! :)
A fantastic sale. I love the dark blue vase. Kisses and pets for Daisy!
Thanks Carol. I will be listing that one soon. :)
German steins sell! My friend got quite a haul of them and made a bundle! 😮
Eh, some do, but the ones I find at sales, usually not
Wow! That was an amazing estate sale! Love those! Great prices. Well done!
Thanks Irene!
This was so much fun . Great prices and great items
Thanks Janna!
Hi
How fat do you normally travel on average to go to estate sales, and flee markets etc for ebay inventory
Usually within 30 minutes but sometimes up to 60 (rare).
Oh my goodness, this was the most amazing sale I have ever seen. You hit the jackpot on it!! Congratulations 🎉 How exciting to watch, well exciting with a little jealousy. lol. 😅
Thanks Sandi! Estate sale of a lifetime!
First time watching, what a wonderful sale. Beautiful pieces and prices.
Thank you! Be sure to subscribe
How do you film and go around so slowly and get the stuff you want?? 😂 I feel like I have to run a marathon in an estate sale 🤣
It's the Prime Time philosophy. Do not worry about missing out on treasures in other rooms when you have treasures sitting right in front of you. Also, have confidence that your knowledge will allow you to find valuable items that others missed.
Wow, that sale blew my mind- omg!! I’m just shocked at the low prices!! Incredible!! Wow, so much fun to watch. My heart would have been pounding, trying to decide & scoop! Great video!!
Yes! Estate sale of a lifetime!
My anxiety woulda been through the roof!!😅
It so cute you trying to explain glas making!! I am a glas blower/maker. Yes its where the rod is attached but that peice you showed isnt blown its actually rolled while its hot into small colored peices ❤😂😂
lol I have a lot to learn about glass making
WOW!! what an amazing estate sale, I am so happy you got so many great items. 🙌 and like always thank you for all the tips along the way.
Thanks T! I appreciate you watching the vids and taking time to comment.
Hey Dom, wow what a sale. I know the glass is definitely worth buying but just looking at all possible breaking points gave me the shakes. Thanks for another great video, Randy.
LOL.Thanks Randy. I understand the fear but shipping glass is pretty easy once you know the core concepts. I have shown this in other shipping videos but the keep is to adequately wrap the ite, pad the bottom of the pox, fill all void space, double box, and not hearing any shaking once packed up. Do that and you will be fine. I have literally never had an item break using this process, large or small, with any shipping service.
That house was obviously owned by a retired sailor in the Navy who had been based in Japan and Italy ...I have uncles that were based in both countries and their wives collected the same stuff...it is all very 70's 80's and even 90's in designs...One uncle even picked up an Italian wife in Venezia and another a wife in Kyoto!!!
Great point, Kevin! Definitely a possibility!
Maybe another Zweifel paperweight, more pastel in color..next to a tall blue vase or candlestick...great value on those if they are signed.
Thanks
