    Sarah Coventry is old jewelry from the 50s thru 70s. Older pieces are worth $. Be sure to check them out! Money money money.
    Good score!
    The small metal figures from Germany are sometimes worth more than you know and old Halloween items are extremely worth $.
    You can learn tons from dealers at antique stores. But ... be careful if they make you an offer on the spot. That means they are worth more and the dealer wants them. Always get a few different dealers opinions. That's how you can learn the fastest and most reliable way of what items are worth.

      Actually, the accent is on the first syllable: BUL-a-va. Watch and clock maker for many decades. We’re very popular in the 40s, 50s, 60s. After that, it became an ordinary brand. However, they made a wide dollar range of products. Bear in mind that I was born in ‘51 and still have a few of my dad’s Bulova watches. Thx

    Sarah Coventry made costume jewelry that was sold in at-home sales parties you invited your women friends to for a girl's night out. Like Tupperware parties but with jewelry.
    Bull-a-vah is how you pronounce Bulova on the clock face. The company made wrist watches too.
    IF that picture frame is curved glass, those can go for a good amount of money. People buy them to put old pictures of relatives in the frames. Just an FYI to help you out.
    Miss Shops a lot has a UTube channel and Christie is a reseller too. She resells women's purses, jewelry, perfumes, clothing. You can learn a lot from her about some vintage items. She has been going through jewelry jars lately that she has purchased from Goodwills or the Salvation Army stores in her area. I think she is in NY state.
    I hope this helps you out and I cannot wait until part 2 of this storage unit is posted. You never know what you'll find in a storage unit. Sometimes junk, sometimes good stuff. Exciting!!!

    Some of the old secretary desks like that can be worth a bit of money. Yours is beautiful and once you fix the leg, might be worth more than you think. This is a great storage unit. I think you will find a lot of good sellable items in it too. Buying storage units is very addictive. Once I bought my first one, I was hooked. I wish sometimes that I could still do them, but my health won't let me anymore. But I love watching you two discover the hidden treasures in the ones you buy. Keep it up and know that sometimes, they aren't as good as other times, but Grimes Finds just knocked it out of the park again. Of course, he is willing to pay up for units that look promising and he travels to find them too. Have a blessed weekend. I hope you find some amazing things as you continue digging in this unit.

      @KillingMachine96 Před rokem +1

      Hi Guys, love the channel. Now, as the student of a Furniture Whisperer, I have to agree 100% with Owen. The secretary looks like money. Claw feet and the look of the wood are making me feel it's old. Like valuable old. Advice time: don't half-ass the leg repair---it's a load bearing item and you want to make it look like it's never been broken. Second, the topper. Inspect it carefully, it was flopping. Some pieces have the topper as a removable option so check it over before you decide if you want to permanently secure it. The little key lock---they tend to look like crap but try a little Brasso on it. My cabinets' handles and drawer pulls were almost black. Until I took one off, polished it with Brasso and now they're all gold. Lastly, ask around to furniture restorers for a good wood cleaner. I use Murphy's Oil Soap, not super expensive but makes it look good. This secretary could be worth as much as a used car and I don't mean three figures. Antique furniture--one piece can be worth $1500-2000. Great find.

    OK the curio cabinet/desk on the low end would be $300. To $400. You need to look online for these to find the approx year. They can range up to $1,000s. All depends on year it was made. They also always have a skeleton key for the lock.
    Don't sell yourself short on antique furniture. Please do research. You can make $. To quickly get a price on it take good pictures and go to an antique store and talk to any dealer that knows antique furniture. They will always give you the best information.

    That first mirror is worth a lot and is an antique and the wooden bear seat is definitely vintage! ( : Oh wow, the singer 9/10 scissors are very nice and also the craftsman tool! ( : That wood piece with a mirror is absolutely gorgeous. The maker's name would be under one of the drawers. ( : Cool desk! ( :
    Bulova is a fantastic well made clock! ( : $200 on the low end, I would say more like $500! ( : That cacti pic is really cute! ( :
    OMGGGGGG! Kayla! It is the Brooklyn bridge! That is something else! ( : Vintage too! ( :
    Wow, the stained glass panther is really cool too! ( : The electric scooter should sell for a good amount, I would think! ( :
    Woah! You guys made out like bandits on the figurine! ( : Awesome! ( : Baseball cards too?!! Holy moly! You guys did great and it is sooo fun watching you guys open everything! ( : You found the jewelry box, Julian, was hilarious! ( : The 2nd jewelry box is filled! ( :
    I think you did great so far. I know a little about jewelry. Myom and mother-in-law had a lot of costume jewelry which is worth money. I have several brooches my mom researched that were $75.00 each! So, nothing to sneeze at! ( : My MIL's jewelry was from the 30's and 40's and Italian crosses from Italy are usually 18k+ gold! ( :

    My Mom just got a desk like that but hers looks like a hundred years older because the glass looks all melted and full of air bubbles. We also got a Victrola from the same antique shop full of records but has a problem with one of the drums.

    One note about moving antique furniture, best not to scoot pieces on the floor. Pieces are often dry, the legs can get broken off.... just like that one. Even if the pieces has wheels, take care.

  • @grumpyiwegianpodcast3505

    Your Back Heavy piece with the glass door that was up against the wall is called a Security Judging from the looks of it I say that one is from around 1920's to the early 40's maybe and Valued at around $375 to $550 the market on these really fluxiates depending on condition, wood used and location and buyer market available. it looks like a nice piece. 30 years ago they were an easier item to sell vs today. Good Luck!

    Regarding those 35mm slides.... Kodachromes are the best ones because the colors are vivid and they don't degrade like cheaper film does. Also, photographic slides of vintage airplanes and trains are popular and can bring good money.
