  • Today we are back at BOOKOFF SUPER BAZAAR and spending a bit more time going through the 110yen (75¢) section.
    Also checking the ornaments, vases and ceramics as usual…all the types of items I thrift for resale and for the home.
    Estimated prices are noted in USD($) (exchange rate in 2024) to help convert into your own currency.
    By the way the lovely blue glaze Kiyomizu-yaki vase sold today, the day I posted this video!
    Love that kind of synchronicity!✨
    Thank you so much for watching and hope you enjoy the content🥰
    - Regular BOOKOFF branches sell books, comics, sometimes DVDs, CDs, LP records.
    - BOOKOFF SUPER BAZAAR branches tend to be bigger and sell clothing, shoes, bags and anime-related figures.
    - Then…you have the mega large-format SUPER BAZAAR stores that also handle household items, furniture, electronics, musical instruments, sporting goods, baby goods, art, jewelry and more!
    Make sure you check the branch info on their website before you go! There’ll be icons of what kind of products they sell listed under each branch.

    Lovely finds. Thanks for sharing. Found my first Kokeshi doll at one of my favorite flea markets here in NYC. She’s a “Sayonara” Kokeshi with a scroll that culminates in a pretty swirl of fabric that wraps as if she’s wearing a kimono. I love her but you’d be shocked to learn that I had to pay $15 US. Worth every penny to me as they’re not quite as common here as they are in Tokyo. Could it be the start of a collection? Yes, indeed!

    • @tokyotique
      @tokyotique  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Thank you so much for watching and for your kind comment Nancy! Your kokeshi sounds beautiful. Actually that's a pretty good price for a kokeshi so don't feel bad! Usually they are closer to that price (second-hand) in vintage stores here too. The flea markets and some of the thrift stores have the super good deals!😊Love that you're starting a collection🎶
