5:40 Alex I'm 76 and I still remember when I was 12 and my brother's bride was in my home. That night I had a nightmare wherein, she was sitting on mother's bed and there was this porcelain doll that looked exactly like that. That image scared me half to death and I woke up screaming!
That candle stick phone was like the one in Andy Griffith show in the sheriff station. The old wooden wall phone was in It’s a Wonderful Life when Mary was talking to Sam Wainwright
Alex, I was just there a couple of months ago. My son lives in Little Flock. It’s just a couple miles from the Antique Flea market. I love going through it. I’m such a fan of you and Melissa. So weird that you were in my part of the world. I’m so happy you were able to visit your niece and see the Arkansas beautiful hills. Enjoy
There is a Homestead Mall here where I live and I love going there and seeing it all. Spend hours just walking around and looking at all the good stuff. Thanks for sharing and have a great day
You have a better eye than I, and I'm sure the camera is not picking up all the detail, but I thought the china head doll was a repro. I really thought it a 1970s repro before you looked at the price.
Really looked repro. Almost impossible to tell on video, but the $18.00 price was so low, it seemed like there was a box full of copies to replace it. 😂😢
@@mackeymintle66 Agreed. One thing about price. People don't always know how much something is worth, and the pricing reflects that. But in this case, I do think it says repro.
@@historybuff7491 agreed. If you have a rented space at an antique mall, you have probably heard that dolls are collectible. 😜🤘🏼 I don’t mean to hate on the seller, because it almost feels like they’re charging an excited new collector, or a gift buyer who may not know any better… the price is still reasonable at $18 Just as a decoration piece. The tag may even said “new” or something that may lead the reader to understand that it’s not a secret treasure… I have way too many opinions about buying and selling… decades of searching and picking.., I guess thats why I started watching this channel at the Potters house era.👌❤️😎👍
I love watching your videos. Sometimes you find things that I remember was in my miemas house when I was a kid. I love going to antique stores. We have 3 really good ones here in Tulsa . And one in jenks .I love going too. You mentioned when you had your store ...I'm guessing you don't anymore.
When I had booths at Antiques Malls they usually had a sale every February or March and each vendor posted their own discounts. I always checked the bigger discount booths first and quiet often found some really good deals.
Hey man, one of my buddies has a booth in there wild to see it on youtube. I have a case and a booth in tontitown arkansas probably 20 minutes from there over at country classic antiques. You should check it out! The owners are great people.
Hi Alex, I've been subscribed for a while now and I really enjoy your videos. I know you tape ahead, but if you are still in or near Bentonville, Arkansas, I'm up in Joplin Missouri. I'd be happy to direct you to a few REALLY big antique stores we have up this way, as well as the Bonnie and Clyde hideout house here in Joplin. Also, I understand if you don't want to meet up with some random subscriber lol. Let me know if I can help, and take good care!
I buy Burl Ives. Decades ago he was my introduction to folk music and have recently upgraded by LP collection to CD's (yes, I know many would consider that a downgrade! LOL)
i miss the op shops i live out bush now so no close shops,but when i lived in sydney op shops made me money every day,so i enjoy going shopping with you m8 thankyou.
I liked the old maroon Missouri license plate there. They changed to white with blue lettering about ten years ago or so. When I was young, you got new plates and number every year, so the year was embossed on it. That had the renewal stickers, so somewhat later.
So funny to see you walk through that mall, I have been there many times, the last time was about four weeks ago. It's okay, some genuine antiques, some nice collectibles. Overall, meh. Just my opinion. I've been doing antiques for 25 years, so not much impresses me anymore. I would recommend Brass Armadillo in KC MO as well as Metcalf Antiques in Overland Park KS.
It's great if you don't mind paying those prices. But you are shopping in the high-end antique malls. I live in Arkansas and there are far lower-priced malls for the same items around here.
Alex, if that was a million dollar painting, you would go straight to the owner and tell them that they had it priced too low. I’ve seen you do that before, I think with a Picasso. Lol. You’re a good guy. ✌🏻🤍🤞🏽
I'm not really a glass collector, but I paused the video at that same spot to zoom in because I thought I caught sight of some Candlewick. Pretty sure I did spot piece in the back. That's the only glassware I do collect. Whenever my husband and I go on a trip where there are antique/thrift shops, I'm always on the lookout for Candlewick. Sometimes I come home with a piece or two, which serves as my souvenir. But I don't like to pay too much.
While watching your video, I was surprised how you didn’t understand that the individual who had items in the 50% shelves was just for that dealers items. Also the Victorian style doll for under $20 was a reproduction. Sorry, I’m amazed that since you once had a store; you lack an understanding on pricing. I found myself frustrated watching you walk around and describe items. Sorry. I’m an antiques collector and seller and have been for some 40 years and even I don’t know everything. We learn every day and never become an expert in all things We live in Northwest Arkansas and frequent all the stores you visited while there. Homestead is a nice antiques store. We have bought many items there and the owners are great people. None the less, at least you took the time to be a CZcamsr and upload interesting videos. Something I haven’t invested the time in. So, that’s good on you 😊
I love walking through antique stores. Always see things that bring back memories and realize how old l am.
Best line in the whole vid:
"If I decorated my house in a different way, I'd probably put something like that in there."
🤣🤣🤣
Burl Ives is the snow man on Rudolph the red nose reindeer show we see every year at Christmas!!

It’s always fun to go antiquing with you, Alex. Thanks!
I love walking through the stores in my hometown with you!
That candle stick phone was like the one in Andy Griffith show in the sheriff station. The old wooden wall phone was in It’s a Wonderful Life when Mary was talking to Sam Wainwright
This is my favorite place for vintage vinyls. Found some classic 60's & 70's records here.
I'm thinking you might have been channeling James Stewart from It's a Wonderful Life! Good impersonation. That phone was inspiring 😂
Alex , I enjoy the hunt, the search.
Always enjoy when you share th knowledge , the history of an item……..thank you, Wally
Gah, I sure miss going to places like this.
Thanks for taking us all along for the adventure. =-D

It’s me. I’m buying Burl Ives 😂 and I am throwing him on at Christmas and making everyone listen to him 😂😂
There is a Homestead Mall here where I live and I love going there and seeing it all. Spend hours just walking around and looking at all the good stuff. Thanks for sharing and have a great day
Yes, I would invite people over and throw on my Burl Ives album. They may not stay long, but I'd do it.
Thanks for the tour! 🙂

Doesn’t matter what I am doing you’re videos come on and I am watching

Great video 😊
Had to chuckle at your Burl Ives comment - he is certainly a niche artist! 😄
Grandma bought him because they were in a movie together.
Love Burl lves.

The “parlor lamp” @ 4:15 is a Gone With the Wind lamp.
Welcome to Arkansas! You should’ve ventured down to Fayetteville and visit3d 410 Vintage. The place is awesome!
You went kind of fast, but I thought I saw a picture of the Dionne Quintuplets.
There are lots if places here in Missouri if you head up 65 hit Ozark and Springfield. 😊
Those lucite chairs are fantastic ! But it’s so hard to find them in perfect condition . The ones I see are always scratched up .
I live in the area and have never gone in there. Wish I could have met up with you. Canadian to a Canadian.
My parents have an old phone on the kitchen wall still. Their house is well over 100 yrs old.
You should check out Samaritan shop in Rogers if you’re still in town!
You need to look at the pocket knives. They are hot right now. Worth $$$$.
Drive up to Cassville, Mo. we are 45 minutes away from Rogers, Ark. Great thrift stores and flea markets.
I love Burl Ives
lol, my parents listened to Burl Ives.
I'd buy one of those Mobile horses, because... horses...
So funny to see you walk through that mall, I have been there many times, the last time was about four weeks ago.
It's okay, some genuine antiques, some nice collectibles.
Overall, meh. Just my opinion.
I've been doing antiques for 25 years, so not much impresses me anymore. I would recommend
Brass Armadillo in KC MO as well as Metcalf Antiques in Overland Park KS.
Don't forget to look for vintage comicbooks.
I am going back to work so I will be able to buy the Captain America
It's great if you don't mind paying those prices. But you are shopping in the high-end antique malls. I live in Arkansas and there are far lower-priced malls for the same items around here.
Lol Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks! Your going way back. I had the album Last Train to Hicksville.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was wondering if those soldiers were a chess set
Those “lucite” chairs are from IKEA. I have 4 of them 😊
That Merry Mushroom canister is in high demand right now! I tried to pause and zoom but couldn’t read the price on that one
You should check out eureka springs Arkansas
You could use the incomplete phone to call up fish still. 😅
Lol...I used to karaoke a little bittie tear let me down. Burl Ives 😂😂😂
Alex, if that was a million dollar painting, you would go straight to the owner and tell them that they had it priced too low. I’ve seen you do that before, I think with a Picasso. Lol. You’re a good guy. ✌🏻🤍🤞🏽
I could spend an insane amount money in these places if I could. Lol
3:30 that's 100% the kind of glass I would spend thirty minutes going over.
I'm not really a glass collector, but I paused the video at that same spot to zoom in because I thought I caught sight of some Candlewick. Pretty sure I did spot piece in the back. That's the only glassware I do collect. Whenever my husband and I go on a trip where there are antique/thrift shops, I'm always on the lookout for Candlewick.

Hi Alex😊
Thanks, but did you get that old thermometer?
That was Dwight from “The Office”
Burl Ives😁
Just keep digging, Alexander.
Did Melissa and the kids meet your brother yet?
We did and he’s amazing ❤
@@MelArchbold oh good!!! Hopefully there’s a video😃 which I’m sure there will be!!
Did you buy the thermometer ?
It would be interesting to know if these places would take payment over phone or website and that they would ship.
Did you get the gas station thermometer, Alex?
They were coffee pots not teapots.
Did you ever flip that motorhome????
So Alex will you get reprimanded for the copywrited music in the background? 😮😮
So you didn't buy anything?
there is a lot of good stuff that does not fit in the cases.....yes?

You are moving your phone way to fast, do not like it.
Didn’t see anything interesting. Goodwill has better stuff 😅
