    great video. I am 26 and I have loved antiques for years. watching storage hunters got me into buying and selling antiques. I love the treasure hunt too and the history that comes with the items haha

    Thanks for sharing. I was wondering how you got your start. I love researching and searching for treasures. I started out in jewelry. I do sell a lot of clothes but my most interest is in paintings and pottery. Learn a lot watching you. Your passion for what you do is so genuine. Always enjoy hearing from you. Take care.

    I got into antiques years ago but I encountered ONE MASSIVE PROBLEM. I like to keep a lot of antiques for myself so I always have a cash problem. I find antiques more addictive than sex and drugs :) Really.

    Hi. I found this video very informative a really motivating. I’d like to see a further video on how you structure and run your business (sole trader/Ltd. company) and the advantages of both, business incomings, outgoings to be expected, how you work out what is profit, what sort of things can go down to running the business and how do you decide how much you pay yourself and more importantly when. I think many would appreciate this. No specific numbers of course, but maybe ideas of percentages etc. Keep up the very good work, great videos. Thank you.

    You have just described my life here the last few years! I love my job! I love the treasure hunt. I love my freedom! When you described your day driving to anywhere you want to in search of antiques and then stopping to have lunch in a garden, sounds perfect! I so wish I had a mate that worked with me. The only thing I miss is sharing this part of my life with someone. It is nice to see and meet someone with the same interest. Too bad we live so far away.

    You said the first book you bought was a millers and they aren't great, so for someone that is a beginner looking to get into antiques do you have some book recommendations that helped you in the beginning? Thanks for the video.
