Surrounded by your lovely viewers, let me tell you that you did a great job which will generate tons of clicks.😉The white table is an old one and can easily be restored, my estimate would be $ 50,-/80,- after a solid restoration. Rebecca Minkoff is a high end brand from New York, and the nice sweater might sell for 50,-/60,- bucks online. Though this lot wasn´t a home run, it was definitely worth the price. 👍Keep it up, and have a great Christmas weekend ! Greets from GER, U.
Better paying $25 for these few boxes than a whole storage unit with mattresses and bags of garbage! I had planned on selling at the flea market tomorrow, but plans changed, so the furniture piece will have to wait for the next flea market trip. Probably best anyway, I've heard it's been a bit slow at the market and with the holiday weekend, not sure how crowded it will be anyway. Hope you have a nice weekend, whether doing last minute Christmas things or relaxing!
Thank you, great video.
I'm hooked you have a great personality
Loved this! It was fun. Im so glad you didn't unbox out in the cold. I loved that white piece of furniture. Beautiful, but like you, i dont understand why they painted over such beautiful wood. I like wood anyway. It was good to see you. I love you. Stay safe, warm, and healthy.❤️😘💞💞💞🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✌️👶
Just curious…🤔 Do you sell on Facebook Marketplace? I’m wondering if the homemade piece would do better there.🤗💖🦋
I love the white piece of furniture! I agree with you… it would be so nice with the paint stripped off! Merry Christmas!🎄
Free people items seem to sell very well!
Would be a nice piece of furniture to decorate at Christmas!🎄🎄🎄
Yes it would, I personally like that look, doilies on top, greenery and Putz houses, totally cuteness.
I'm pretty sure from what little you showed of it, the clothes box is a winner. Free People is a good brand, on the fairy pricey side. I think it is worth it to look up each piece.
Personally I think it is a crying shame when people paint over good wood, but I think it is still "a thing". I see a lot of it on different platforms.
Rebecca Minkoff is mostly known for designer purses. That sweater (maybe a sweater dress?) would resell nicely on Poshmark.
You always have such a great a attitude about what you get-I admire it very much.
I really like the old furniture piece. That's going to look great refinished! Great video, Merry Christmas!
The paint job is horrible on your wooden piece but it can either be repainted or stripped. It is a really unique piece. Renee, did you ever do a recap of what you earned on that fabulous pallet find of all the jewelry and the expensive clothing? I would love to hear what those things were worth when sold. Merry Christmas and I hope that you know how grateful I am for the content you
post all year. It brings me joy.
Agreee😊
As ad furniture flipper, this would be great stripped ( check for lead paint first) and restored.
Yes, what happened with that designer pallet of expensive clothes & jewelry?
Free People is not cheap check that out and look at Posh Mark to compare prices
My brother helped us move our last time...he was here when we started opening boxes and asked what was in the box marked dog clothes/chicken outfits...and was kind of impressed that our two frenchies had an entire box of clothing, pajamas, leashes to match the outfits etc. Once your children and grandchildren grow up...your dogs and chickens are a tad spoiled..plus they look so darn cute in them... that whit
I like these pallet auctions too. At least the items are clean and you're not digging through mouse droppings. Well done on picking a good one. ❤🐨
Very true!
This was so great to watch😍👍 I still have a couple pieces of furniture my dad made. They are a bit crude but I love them.
In all of the clothes you have found, I would love to see a fashion show like the ole days
👗💃😘😍 You have the best figure! The clothes might fit you and look to be fun. Something to think about for cold, ucky days
I love your channel Renee🥰
Thanks so much! The furniture that your dad made might be a bit crude, but they were made with love :0)
I've just recently learned of free people brand clothing. (I know, I live under a rock) I had to look it up online to see what it was all about. Also associated with Urban Fitters, of which I have never shopped there either. I hope your items will appeal to someone and that you are able to recoup your costs plus a bit of profit. The white older piece of furniture is nice. I thought people didn't want brown furniture anymore, except me. It seemed like the majority of the population went crazy and painted everything white. The only thing that I have that comes close, is an old trunk that my mom refurbished in a "French" cream colored paint with gold decals. Not my taste anymore, but she put a lot of work into it.
Wish you'd keep the white chest! Love it. Great haul of clothes.❤
My mother “antiqued” everything oak with green and gold accents..this was in the 1960s . I only have one piece, which is quite enough.
You got some good Poshmark brands in the clothing - you might have better luck there. Have a Merry Christmas and great video!
I am so glad you said that the app for Ebay is a bit wonky when compared to the laptop. I thought it was just me!!
Be careful of bugs in the boxes. You might be bringing them into your home
My first thought.
Glad you did not find yourself a powdered friend. I think Grandpa John was a better carpenter than artist - that drawing scares me a little. I like the piece of furniture, though I curse the "white-painting" movement that's been around for a while. I know a lot of people don't like brown anymore - but for those of us that do - it's a pain to strip paint. White especially. I've never seen drawers like that with the spacers in the back - usually the drawers go all the way to the back of a piece. They're pretty slick. Glad you will make your money back and more. By coincidence I was at the "Total Chaos Farm" today and they also had a dog named Bella. This is a place in the country - about a 300 foot long building with stuff collected over many years - all for sale. Horses, donkeys, mules, chickens, quail - and picking! What's not to like. Congrats on another good unit & great video. Have a spectacular Friday afternoon!
They have animals and you can go picking?? That's the best of both worlds! Wish they had something like that around here. Facebook Marketplace here is usually filled with older and antique furniture that has been painted, either white or the slate blue. A nice job done on the painting but ruins the classic look and beauty of the original wood. However, who knows, in so many years, like everything, that could be highly desired amongst people. Trying to wind down here things a bit from the hustle & bustle of the season! Hope that you have a great weekend!
I'd pay 25 bucks for that white table thing......while you were smelling it, I was picturing you finding Grampa John's corpse in it. YIKES!😮😮
"The CZcams Quote of the Day" award goes to Miss Moose ......"Let me take my glasses off, so I can see" 12-22-2023 👏👏
Hahaha yes, I didn’t have my glasses on that have the little lenses in the bottom that allow me to read up close. Because I’m nearsighted, wearing certain old pairs of glasses makes things up close blurry so I have to remove my glasses so I can see 🤓
Am thinking Glasses ..some plastic cups in there...& here we go A COOL table !! I'd sand that down and refinish it . Its beautiful ❤ Love that serving tray ...Tip of the Day when packing clothes add a few dryer sheets. I do it with my seasonal cothes & when I move which is very often. GREAT BUY !! Not bad for the $$
Free People clothes are an expensive brand that holds value!
Free People isa good brand and has a following. From the design on the white side table 0r small bench IMO what you have actually found is an import piece ala Pier One or other import store. The other clothing brands are also from various import designers and actually could be worth some money depending on age, style and use. I like the dog stuff and it should resell nicely at the market. You will make your money back no doubt. Best wishes
Fee People, Lucky Brand are expensive and popular.
You should check out your Free People items. They are costly new so masher you have an old one someone would be glad to buy. Enjoy the storage videos. We don't have anything like that where I live. Flea market either.
ive run into a couple places who put stuff in the unit AFTER the pictures were taken. thats a great way for them to get rid of stuff without having to do a managers special
I've only had one box missing from a storage unit and that was a box clearly marked as "Food". I was better off that the box was removed from the unit!
love the older piece of furniture Renee'
Question for you, has your mom or family member ever watched a video of yours and said Oh Renee save that item for me? With all the amazing treasures you come across I would think you have little piles saved for birthdays and Christmas to give them 😊
Not really. I think they go through cycles when they watch videos & then stop for a few months. Usually if I find anything that I know they like, I’ll put it aside for them anyway 🙂
I love your many different treasure hunts! Where do you store/sell your items? Maybe someday you will do a video on that. Happy New Year!
That chest looked great, strip the paint and lightly sand blast it, put a finish on it it would be really nice. Enjoy your holiday
Merry Christmas Renee 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
I just got a mental image of me lightly sand blasting that chest. It would be a toothpick when I was through.😂
@@pegs1659 Just have to turn your media flow down and reduce your air flow pressure. And adjust your distance from the project
that table is nice! i would do a quick strip of the paint. I think it would sell faster.
Free People has a great resale value.
Merry Christmas and on storage units U-Haul storage units seem to be the best ones on not going through the units before auction
I liked that White Table actually as for Grandpa John at least He tried and incase Hes watching Hey Grandpa John 🖐
Always enjoy your videos. Merry Christmas. Tina, Al's wife
Merry Christmas!
So much fun watching you unbox. What is playing in the background? It’s lovely 🥰
Your hair looks SO nice!
Nice looking stuff. Looks good to sort through without spending hours. I like the grey sweater dress, think it looks like you.😀 chest is fun, someone is going to be happy. Thank you 💯🌲💝
Merry christmas and happy year
Hi Renee. Thank you so much for such a wonderful and amazing pallet Auction unboxing. I love the table in white 🤍. It's beautiful. The clothes are expensive at most. And you Renee are soo lovely as well. God Bless you Renee. I Christmas 🎄🎁 will be very sad without my sister around. It was September 25 when she past. I will be fine. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 my friend. Love you and your videos. Your friend Mari'a. 🎁🎁🎄🎄🤍🤍❤️❤️🤗🤗💖💖☃️☃️👍👍🧑🎄🧑🎄🙏🙏🙏
Thinking of you Maria and sending thoughts of strength for you this holiday season! May you find peace in all the happy memories of your sister.
Those glasses are very flattering to your face.Enjoy your channel. Merry Christmas.
Your hair is so beautiful and I love those glasses on you. Happy New Year.
Put the table over on your right near the lamp it's beautiful love from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺🌹
I like that old table! It's so well built.
That furniture piece is just the kind of things people lover to restore...the farmhouse shabby chic style...should be a good flea market piece..
Free People has good resale value
I live thru you, I'd love to buy storage units!!!!
I think you have some good name brand clothing in those boxes.
I love the white table. So cute.
Merry Christmas Renee, have a great holiday, nice stuff 🎉
This was a pretty decent pallet!! And that’s a cool idea to dumpster dive there!!! Hope you have a Happy Christmas!
You have a lot of high end vintage clothes there!😊
Profits will be made! Good choice at the auction!
334 views in only 16 minutes? You rock, Renee!
It's actually pretty obvious that a lot of times you are at places with Taco Stacks, because you do your videos in or around his van! 😂lol!
Yes. Their adventures go back to Taco searching his immediate area farm dumps for scrap metals etc. They pulled an old lightning rod and wire out of the old dump together. This was just before he adopted Salsa I believe.
I love the vintage white chest. Strip the paint and restore. Love it.
Your eyeglass frames are 🔥!
Thank you!!
Christmas blessings to you. See you on the next fun video.
Nice items. I love the white table...
Very cool cupboard, the paint job was rough, but as you said, can strip it off. Think you did alright for $25. Here's hoping the sweater is worth mega bucks! 👍👍
Free People is a very popular brand! I see resellers in clothes picking it up to resell.
Love the music, perfect. Minkoff is higher end, not Chanel, but not Target. Merry Christmas 💖💖✝✝🎄🎄
That white wooden chest is quite something. I am sure you can figure out to bring it back to life..... It took a lot of patience to wait to open up those boxes until your video. hahahahaha
Pallet auctions are great content!
Good job. Thanks.
If you're allowed to dumpster dive you should. Save the landfills and make something for yourself. Someone could use those things you are saving..
Dumpster diving is always tricky in my area. Sometimes the dumpster company actually “owns” the stuff inside & so it becomes theft for taking anything. I won’t even touch the retail store dumpsters, too much risk for the cops being involved.
This old WVA man doesn't know what has taken me so long. But I just subscribed to your channel. I've watched you with Taco many times. Now I am looking forward to binge watching your videos. And I want to say you were always beautiful. But I'm really glad to see you letting your hair grow out long. ❤
Free people is a very expensive brand and very good brand and lucky is expensive also
I hope you decided to keep that piece of furniture. It has your name written all over it. Once refinished, it would be a nice piece to display some of your other treasures on as well as some storage space inside the drawers. Thanks for sharing and have a Merry Christmas!
Free people is expensive. So is lucky
Merry Christmas Renee to you and your family 🎅🏻🎄🧑🏻🎄. Love the storage unit hauls.
Yes. You ll do fine. No sweeping out the unit. . Ask 35 for the chest. The clothes. I d be happy to clear 125. Total. Thank s for your time and motivation. If i m not back... merry Christmas!!😊
Exciting unboxing...love the little piece of furniture...not bad at all...thanks for sharing and have a blessed Christmas..🥰🥰
That is a beautiful antique side table. Would be easy to restore
I think it's old as well. Many have stated it looks like an "import", something that would have been at Pier One. But the inside of the drawers and underneath looked too good to be from Pier One.
@@PaperandMooseare the drawers dovetailed? I couldn’t see.
I sold an unsigned piece..this past summer,. or it was signed but we didn't' recognise it. It was really powerful with a figure holding a fist int he air. I sold it to a student who was totally taken with it. I only knew that the piece had been created by a migrant or a when you seen as a person who needs refuge but is met by opposition. When she said her price of what it meant to her, I didn't counter..... It was all hers. It really was a beautiful, powerful piece.
If u borrow taco stacks palm sander and sand it which would take less than a day u could easily sell it for 45 to 50
Another fun to explore find! 🎄
You did awesome on your pallet. Merry Christmas ❤
Nice cottage core white table 👍. Would make a nice, small coffee table.
Free People and Minkoff resale values remain fairly high, depending on the size and piece. eBay, I've found, is not the best place to resale higher end pieces. Many sellers often don't do their research, or know what they have, and undervalue it. Comps aren't always the best way to price an item .
I guarantee you could get more than $39 for the Minkoff sweater. Throw it in a padded mailer in a zip lock bag and off it goes...easy peasy.
No doubt! I know a lot of people that love Free People! Poshmark is a better option.
That's my new baby mama right there
Keep it. The cottage piece.
I just hope its not grandpa John…😂😂😂
Renee!!! Thanks for taking us along! I appreciate you!
Merry Christmas!!!
Those free people pieces might sell on ebay? Somethings like any other thing might sell better then others on there ? Just from watching other resellers videos is all ?
Stay safe stay great and keep up the good work!!!
Nice haul! Am curious about the brown piece made out n CA. NICE JOB!
Another awesome vid, Merry Xmas
As long as you don't hear any strange tapping or knocking from with that ultra layered wrapped crate?! Well...there is a strange knocking rattle coming from within!!!!!!!!!!! No, no...let me out.! A big Fr-g????? Looks as if someone cut the legs down...this happened to so many 1920-40 pieces, as well as slopping a coat of paint on them, especially in the late 60s-mid 70s. I remember those "antiquing" kits sold in hardware and paint stores. I also have seen a number of victrola cabinets suffer these "modernizations"! Your piece could be made of oak of mahogany, two popular woods of a hundred years ago. FR-G STUFF...oh, DOG STUFF...well you can't win 'em all! I have seen dogs sporting sweaters and booties! Yesterday, I found a few misc. items...a couple of neat Christmas pieces...both Santa's sleighs...older...made in USA...one stamped 1956! No a bad haul! I did quite a bit of radio cabinet/furniture stripping/refinishing in my day!
The sleighs that you found sound nice! Will any of your frogs fit in them? I haven't seen any victrola cabinets in this area that have suffered at the hand of a paintbrush, but I can just imagine. Only dog stuff, no frog stuff. There will come a day when I come across a whole collection, I know it! Hope that you have a wonderful Saturday, Larry!
Renee, if you have a mattress to get rid of just cut the material off and throw it in the garbage and the springs under that is all metal and can be sold to the scrapyard. No need to pay to get rid of a mattress. :)
Great video and I love your laugh. Do it more often please? :)
Free People is good. All clothing is pretty good
If the box of jewelry that you got was out of David's storage bins and we know for a fact that David went through all of that and Dave took out all the gold Dave's one of the cricketers people he could ever meet. We watched him on the show storage wars. We watch him all the time and all the stuff that you guys are getting is his leftovers from when he did the storage wars so his are cricket
Free people sweaters might be worth something.
Loved that piece of furniture.
Enjoyed this video I agree the table is lovely, have a great Christmas x⛄️👌🇬🇧❤️😁☃️
The piece painted white looks like it might be one of those rustic pieces from Hobby Lobby. Unless it is old and missing three drawers, and they filled it in and painted it. It should get you your 25.00 back.
That piece was old.
You got some good clothes brands that sell good on eBay, Free People, Lucky, Michael Kors.
Chalk paint over that otherwise sweet piece of furniture! It's super easy and will look fab. If you've not used chalk paint to upcycle furniture, literally a 15 minute YT video will show you. Very simple and this thing will look as awesome as it should.
Always enjoy see you unpacking boxes, Hope you have a Mery Christmas 🎁
Merry Christmas!
Renee, I hope you looked at all the brands of the clothing. All of them are in the higher price range, well for a middle class person that is. 😂 Great purchase 😊
$25 with a potential of a couple hundred, not bad for a days work
Happy Christmas Renée,
Free people will fetch good money. Look it up!!! Also the Italian.
Very Interesting & Entertaining❣️
Merry christmas Renee❤❤❤
