  • This Place Is So UNDERRATED It's Disgusting I Shouldn't Tell Anyone About This Place, but that's just not how I find my own success with what reselling means to me.
    Thrifting To Resell at the local Boulder Highway Swap Meet beats every one of my recent trips to goodwill and savers in one trip that comes at a price dealing with high heat temperatures, digging through mounds of who knows what and sometimes vendors not being open for business. But in return those who are there have exactly what I'm looking for, glass, beautiful precious glass worth a lot of money.
    I've noticed I know more vendors than I do thrift store employees. The vibe is much different. Swap Meet and Flea Market Vendors get to know their customers and what to look for that we want to by compared to thrift stores that get so much more items for free. Each have their pros and cons and sacrifices that change from season to season.
    This swap meet $30 haul is valued at nearly $1k.

    Not so fun fact: 53% who watch my videos are not subscribed. Your support is much appreciated and helps reach a wider audience to help places just like this Swap Meet and the Vendors running it.

      Welcome and thank you Nancy. Do you resell too? My friends are moving to Florida. Eventually I plan on visiting them and others who resell out there. Plus I have family there I’d like to visit.

    I love watching you stretch your wings!! I remember the first video you were in and I thought "I like this guy". Now, I just want to hug your neck, as we say in East TN.
    I'm 62 and I love seeing new resellers coming in.

      The majority of the vendors have amazing deals and great welcoming attitudes. There’s one vendor that sees a GoPro and freaks out with me and that’s just me walking by so I don’t bother.

    Hello Sonny!
    In cleaning house, so to speak, I unsubscribed to your channel. That was silly because I enjoy your energy in seeking out the best pieces for resale. I also love glass pieces, the artistry of them, and know little about the monetary value. Your added information on values of items you have looked at helps those of us make better choices. Perhaps in glass art and life in general!
    Thank you Sonny! Best wishes to you and your family and all that view your channel! 💛

    • @SonnyLasVegas

    Love the reverse painted glass round sphere shaped item. It is a Japanese design and it usually sit on a wooden sphere stand with or with out a light. You can get the sphere stands very inexpensive. If you have a stand it would sell between $50 - $95. The lattice vase was a fantastic fine. Thanks for bringing us with you. ✌💗🕯

      Broadacres open Friday at 4pm, Saturday and Sunday 6am-4/5pm. Many vendors leave by 3-4pm. Boulder highway swap meet open Friday-Sunday 6am-2/4pm. The times fluctuate due to the heat vendors leave early.
