It's like discovering an ancient Egyptian tomb full of wonderful treasures!
This is the most insane vintage toy find I've ever seen.
The title of this video should’ve been: “when hoarding goes right???”
lol
Hahahaha! 🤣
@@SargeRedsVintageToys man that’s some cool stuff, did you hang onto anything?
Is it wrong that I felt like crying when I saw that upstairs? WOW. All of the carded Star Wars figures, the boxed toys...the U.S.S. Flagg!!!! That was like the holy grail toy for many kids in the 80s and worth good money today. The people who owned this house were the greatest hoarders I have ever seen.
It was pretty amazing, I'm still sorting through boxes and finding stuff I missed.
I'm just so jealous, I could play in that house all day.
most hoarder houses full of trash,this one about 95 percent can be resold easy even the stove has value..got really lucky.
Yeah, not much trash suprisingly. mostly just cool old stuff I'm pretty stoked its not nasty.
Did some collector die in here? If so...it's kinda sad. Goes to show you....enjoy your collection while you can because you can't take it with you.
I was wondering how he bought the stuff I guess I got my answer 🧐🤨🤔🙄
Very true, I'm in the process of selling all my dad's music equipment. He was never going to sell his prize collection before he passed. I'm glad I'm able to do it for him.
Google Roman's Road
True, good thing he wasn't able to. Look how much joy it brings to others! Haha
A friend of mine had an awesome record collection special printed albums that have never seen a needle never been opened thousands of records never opened, also there was a collection of Hi-Fi stereo equipment. All of this was meant to be his nestegg for his retirement. He also worked two and three jobs so he can enjoy a decent retirement. I think he was only 55 when he died. He never got close to seeing retirement days and his family probably sold everything cheap because they didn't know what it was. Very very very sad. Perhaps it could have been avoided if he had only gone to a doctor in time.
That carded Joe killed me,
It hurts to watch this. I want to find a treasure haul like this so bad I wanna cry!!
I FELT THAT TRUE!!
Omg true! Although I am genuinely happy for them, I also practically lost my mind that I have never found an abandoned house just filled with vintage cabbage patch kids, Barbie and dolls from the 1960’s and 1970’s!! Lol 😫😩😆💖
Perhaps But remember if you find it somebody had to lose it and I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want that to be you
What’s the back story to this house?
You have to wonder why this house ended up abandoned for years but never cleared out.
My guess would be a mental health issue occurred, where someone was institutionalized, putting the property in a legal limbo for a long time until death and next of kin laws occoured
So ... basically ... could be some bodies in the basement. Bad karma no matter how you slice it.
@@professord8888 I don't think there is anything malicious or criminal happening hear... This is just a clear sign of cognitive decline and mental health trauma. Film & Television have sadly demonized house suffering from mental health issues for decades, so we all just immediately jump to worst case scenarios when entering a house like this, when the honest story is far less sinister, but equally tragic. I 'm totally arm chair quarterbacking my thoughts here, but clearly something happened to the person living in this house, where they were buying years worth of toys but not taking basic care of their surroundings.
you can get big money for those brown Kenner shipping boxes!!! Especiallythe boxes that the Star Wars and Indiana Jones figures shipped in.
the barbie airplane....lol. I used to hi jack that with my GI Joes and skate board away
lol, nice 😁
This house looks like heaven for retro video games. I’m a youngster for collecting retro video games only 17 so I don’t see stuff like this often I could just imagine the excitement.
100% there is a ton of retro gaming stuff. I'll be going through it in a future vid 😁
This is insane, the find of a decade 😱
So i just found this video. I have to know the back story to this house!!! What when why and how did all of this get to this house. Stay in the house. And come into ur possession. What did these people do for a living?!?!?!
I found your channel because of Curiosity Incorporated. You have an incredible find there.
Thanks, and thank you for checking us out!
@@SargeRedsVintageToys Same! Been watching Alex clear out a hoarder house on Curiosity Inc. channel.
What a score! All the Joes & vehicles I wished for as a kid! 🤩🤩
@@utubepunk Its a walk back in time for sure!
same here, came from Curiosity Incorporated
Ditto
As soon as I seen the door with the bumper stickers I was like "Holy Crap they're in Detroit" I had so many of those myself from WRIF back in the 80s lol.
My husband said the same thing
@Sean O’ Deli Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch!!
That aircraft carrier is worth a good bit
15k
You could sell everything in this house on eBay for years. The Coleco arcade games could go for $1K easily.
Wowwww I just can't believe how much amazing stuff is piled up!! It's absolutely mind blowing!!
It was crazy, I really lucked out on this one :)
It's sad how families act after a death. Some want to cut ties like this Treasure trove. Other times it's straight up greed.
Quick story..
I used to collect Good to Mint condition vintage Spray paint cans and little vintage pint size cans, especially the art deco paper labels..
Anyway I did work in a recent widow's home. In the basement was the Motherload. The all time Mother load. The husband had the most rare Rust-oleum & Krylon cans in mint condition all from the 60s-80s.
Everything has a subculture. Off the bat I saw RARE colors that go for $500 easily. Like 1981's Icey Grape from Krylon. Guy had 3 of them.
In total, I'd say there were an easy 200 cans and 50 little pints.
I asked the widow off the bat. She laughed, and said it's old paint. Take them all. If you want to leave me a couple bucks go ahead.
I went to my work van to start making room. I was ECSTATIC!! I come back, I was going to give her $150. She said sorry to give you bad news but my son called me to ask if you were all done yet with the job. Then I mentioned the cans. He said he is on his way to get them tonight. He needs them.
I left. He needs them now? What a coincidence. He saw dollar signs. I'm sure he took them to an antique dealer who said they aren't worth anything. That I was a niche collector. And I'm sure the son probably threw it all in the garbage. He was probably pissed off.
The sad part was the woman told me I was the first person in her home since her husband passed 2 yrs back. Her own son hadn't been there. But that day he was coming? Only after I showed interest
How sad for the lady to lose her husband and her son never ever been round to see his own mum but only shows up when you have money 💰💰💰💰💰 to buy all those old toys collection 😁 but one thing is at least you will see the lady house tidy up and all the collection moved out but so many memories of theses toys collection and boxed of cabbages patch kids and other dolls but at least you will find a home for every items from this lady house and I gest her son will take the cash amounts and leave his mum with nothing and she will not see him every again 😭 so sad all this time her son not even bothering with his mum but only come around to take the money and leave againe but all those collections of toys in boxes and seals will fetch few more money as you look like you hit Santa grottoes of all types old toys and know you have them in your hands after visiting the lady's home at one time her son loved her for getting him the toys he asked for but some could have been from his parents collection you don't see. G i Jones dolls all sealed up and Starwars yes those dolls just kneed washing and cleaning dusting the boxes down and people will buy just the boxed as art works and few more treasure hidden all over this house 🏠 toys every were 🤣 😂 beautiful toys you paid $40.000 for the hole lots I bet the son couldn't even wait to stay for bit longer ☺️ depends on how old his mum is and proberly Can't wait to put her in a care home 🏘️ and still not see her but only all about the money 💰💰💰💰💰💰 more cash for her son bank account with all the bank 🏦 notes and I would love to own a big museum full of all those vintages antiques items and lol to book find on how much you can make on theses items I hope you had fun and took you ages to remove and bring them back home or bugs free dust free germs free alot of cleaning to do and to go through all of them 😊 you both look very happy like all your birthday's Christmas as come all at once it will take you back in time and different items how mutch they paid for them old price tags and and see the buyers who bought your items off you some of cabbages patch kids can be rare some of Thier names and hair colour boxes are fine see the dolls names they are sometimes named after famous people but have different head mould number books on them and eyes are different colours and few rare ones and the clothes and shoes yellow dummies some are from different countries and few rare hang tags on the dolls and Thier clothes.wonder what's on TV some old ones if they worked cool if not they will find a home for old types TVs every one Collette's old vintage and antique items lol have more fun finding moor toys dolls and cardboard their bedrooms are full you got Thier in time and plus not dumped all in the skips and lucky you can go inside as some houses can be damaging under the collection of toys big dolls house inside full of toys and dolls 😁 beautiful finds go get Moore 🤗
Same thing happened to me. This women had a nice ford ranger 5 speed for sale for 5k and I was wanting to buy it. It was mint, garage kept, 4x4, 2300 miles on it. She just wanted it gone. I told her I'd be back to buy it in 10 minutes. I had to go to the bank to get the money. Meanwhile her prick son comes outta nowhere and says he wants it. Who hasn't been to the home for like 4 years. I was crushed. I showed her 7500 that I was gonna give her, and she had a look of utter disgust on her face because she needed the money more than her son needed the truck. I left and done a big burnout in front of her son. I felt better a little. But not really
I am willing my Toys to Thrift Stores.
When I saw Zod, I just nearly died...
You guys hit the holy grail of toys. Brought back memories of toys I played with as a kid and would love to have again in my collection.
I used to like that ZOD toy my dad gave away the GIjoe aircraft carrier to a neighbor's kid when I was in high school.
I came for the carded Leatherneck.
Wow! You scored the jackpot of toys! That's incredible. 😃
This may be the greatest haul ever lol..everything is awesome. I miss the 80's even more now.
When and where can we see some of the Star Wars and GI Joe vintage toys you are selling?
That’s a LOT of stuff... 😳. My friend has a house like that with literally just enough space to just about walk in!
That’s epic
Sorry for leaving so many comments- just thought of something! 😁 You can prob sell a lot of the other stuff in the house for good profits, not just the toys. The vintage t shirts are worth something, the furniture, everything... people even collect old vhs tapes that have recordings on them, as people are interested in the old tv commercials, especially for toys.
Yep, already have a VHS and clothing guy lined up. Working on the furniture now 😁 comment as much as you like, I love the feedback.
That is amazing my brother gave me 12 star wars in pk from 1977 and i waS thrilled i could not imigine what that feels like wow
It was pretty overwhelming,
I want that clown light cover/shade! Great find/score man. WOW USS Flag boxed. I would probably pass out or die from a heart attack. True Story
WOW!!!! I am 3 mins in and can not believe what you are finding!!!!
Don't know where this house is at but I'm guessing metro Detroit! The bumper stickers on the bedroom door are from a metro Detroit rock station 101 WRIF, THE HOME OF ROCK AND ROLL.....BABY!!
You know it!
Insane Find! So much value in everything in that house.
It's crazy, like walking back in time.
That is like an absolute time warp! I have never seen so much good stuff in a hoarder's home. Doesn't look like much of anything is trash or valueless. I am so jealous. However, I don't even think I would be able to handle that much volume though. It would be so difficult to box it all up and remove it all. Would be fun though! Congratulations on an unbelievable find!
It was pretty overwhelming. I tried to save as much history from the building as possible. i think we got most of it out :)
Lucky you. How much did you pay for that haul?
Amazing.....
HOLY SHIT!!!!! I had so many of those. No flag though. The Verbot is from the Omni Bot collection. His lil bro
BIG TIME SCORE
What a haul, no wonder you sound so excited....brilliant stuff.
Thanks, it was pretty crazy.
no self-respecting Detroit hoarder’s house would be complete without WRIF stickers on a door somewhere. “BABY!”
😂truth
I busted out laughing when I saw that door with the old stickers including a WLLZ sticker.
WRIF Rocks Baby!?! Gotta love 101.1!
have to admit, I was speaking from my own hoarding experience but didn’t see the WLLZ decal or maybe a WABX one somewhere, any others I missed?
Considering the amount of stuff it seems like $40k was a good deal. What would you guess the current market value of that haul is? I'm thinking over $100k.
Heaven. You can have the GI Joe and the Star Wars. That would be so much fun to look through! Memories! I know I'd want several items. Congrats!
Thanks, Faith, glad you enjoyed the video and the memories.
Wow what a find
Something that looks like a dome is on the closet floor of the main floor bedroom..looks like a Barbie airplane that I had when I was a kid, and it was my moms or maybe her sisters....so 60’s I believe...IF that’s what it is , of course. Love to see the inside!
Edit to add: it’s form the year I was born so my memory failed me, was NOT my moms. It was MINE, LOL 1972. Barbie American Airlines Friend Ship. They aren’t rare but SO great to see.
And Glamour Girls... wow.
This is awesome. Have fun!
Cool, I will be doing a vid going through the different collections soon, Barbies are on my list 😁
How much did you pay for the lot, I’m so desperate to know.
A lot!! But he sees the value.
Given that this was just last year I would've been a buyer at $15,000 for the contents of the house with a simple walk through. Who knows what they paid though. Also have to remember this is 6 days work clearing out plus their rental costs if they don't own their own truck or trailers.
omg this is amazing!!!
wow! what a nice video! thx
Just subbed!! I am so jealous of this haul! I have a small retro shop in Connecticut 😊
Thanks, welcome aboard!
That's like a dream come true. I would have so much fun just going through the house with all the retro 80s goodness. Not just the toys, but the clothes, the electronics, house decor, furniture. Everything! Amazing find. Beyond jealous!
It was like walking back in time as you said from the clothes to the toys and everything in between was really a blast from the past.
Same! I'd be checking out what decor & furniture I could use.
ROB the robot! Nice!
WOW! this thing should be in a news!! it's a great big story!!
The box of chin straps possibly go to vintage hockey helmets, I own at least one 1970s helmet with one of those on it. If you find any old hockey gear let me know, I am near Detroit.
I think they go with a bunch of football helmets I found in the house. I don't think I found any hockey items at all.
Unbelievable! Did you ever go into the story of this house?
Its pretty amazing. I don't have to many details on the story of the house but I will touch on what I know in an upcoming video.
please, i wanna know the owners history-- story
I've died and gone to vintage toy heaven 🙌🏾😅 Wow!
That's how I felt, I should be finally done picking it this week. My first 3 week long pick :)
You guys struck an 80s and vintage plastic gold mine!😍
That G.I. Joe patch came with a board game.
Cool, do you know which one?
Alex sent me over. Looks good.
Thanks Jason.
Incredible find ! Congrats! It just makes you wonder why someone who collected these toys and had an idea of their value would abandon them.
Simply amazing!!!!!
Its pretty amazing!
When you have an inventory done, would be interested in a list of the GI Joe stuff found, and a list of prices.
I second that statement.
Tbh if I had all that I would never leave
7:20 - that Detroit radio door. ABX, LLZ and soooo many WRIF Stickers. I had a few of them growing up from various concerts.
Wow crazy awesome stuff . I be in seventh heaven.
I want to see all the Barbie stuff please! So many Barbie treasures you got!😍💕
Will do, they will be in a later video 😁
I know right?! I wanna see the barbie items!!...i'm also wondering if the previous owner
of this house maybe owned a small toy store?
I don't think she owned a store. From what I was told she bought it for the grandkids. Stay tuned for the barbie, we will be going through it in a future video. 😁
Came to your channel from Alexander Archbold live stream
Thanks for checking us out Debi!
Oh wow this is great, so much of that stuff I want ha ha
Wow! Cool stuff! Im excited to see more of it! You might consider an auction for some of the really good pieces. The us flagg is probably worth a lot!
Definitely some cool pieces, it gets better 😁 the Flagg is awesome!
Yea 10-15k easily
Bob Fett toys are probably gonna go up in value now.
Just finished the last episode of the Mandalorian, Fett was pretty awesome in it.
The 3D poster was from Dynamite magazine
Cool, makes sense there were several Dynamite magazines in the house.
Incredible, wow. Congratulations!
OMG! Once in a lifetime score
Alex was talking about you guys. This is a solid subscribe content!
Thank you!
FYI that dinosaur was a mail item. You subscribe to a magazine and you get a piece of the dinosaur a month to put it together.
Cool, I couldnt find anything on it, thanks for the info!
Do you know the year or maker?
@@diefladermause wish I had more info for you. Only reason I know about it is because of my older brother use to be subscribed to some dinosaur or nature magazine that would send pieces of this T-Rex model. This was early or mid 90’s. All I know
The magazine was called Dinosaurs! It was available in '93 or '94. You can find info on it easily enough :)
@@robonintendo I was close I guess 🤣😂 thank you!
Awesome video...I once bought from a former Kenner employee! I was in heaven!
Awesome!
Holy freakin cow!!!! What a dream?!?!
Looking forward to the video! Maybe some vintage hot wheels?
Maybe, still digging through the place :)
yup we found 3 cases and a playset at a minimum.....not sure the contents tho
@@3103montekev Im looking forward to an unboxing soon!
I'll be doing a separate vid going through some of the cases stay tuned 😁
I don’t know how much of this you’ve thrown out already but those home recorded vhs can have value if they have commercials on them to CZcams channels that rip old commercials and upload them.
We grabbed them.
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing your journey. David
Glad you enjoyed it!
guest stars make the vid :) lol can't wait to share this hunt with everyone
Great picking partner my friend :)
Who on Earth in this day and age leaves that much prime 80s toy loot just laying around?!?!
this guy died alone and unloved and the reason these guys are picking through his stuff is because he probably died in that house......people shouldn't value plastic over living a life....over the course of the next decade...we're going to see more of this...because those collectors/hoarders are getting older and dying
@@imperialpresence3331 I see nothing but sadness in this house. 😕
@@saturncrush i was raised in a house like this...and my parents made sure i knew that their piles of crap were far more important than i ever was
@@imperialpresence3331 2020 just shows that we as a culture are much like your parents.
@@imperialpresence3331 I was thinking the same thing. People who never marry or have kids just die alone with no one to check on them. This guy probably was lonely and we can’t take the toys with us when we die. If he did die alone in that house I personally wouldn’t want those toys.
Ok I need help with the name of a toy. It's a toy that I always had as a kid. I could never find it online. but as I was watching this video I saw it. it's been a very long time since I've seen it but there it was in the video. at 8:45, inside the closet, there is an orange and black ramp thing on the right. there were I think two versions of this, a motorcycle one and and a race car one. you would put the cycle or car on the track. there was a ball bearing on the bottom that allowed it to speed down that track. I've always wanted to find one again just I can't remember what it was called. maybe you guys know since it pops up in this video.
I'm not sure, ones I unpack the box it's in I'll see if I can figure out what it is.
Oooh! So that’s why you were digging in those boxes! I hope we can find it for ya!!
Wow, you landed on the ultimate toy gold mine!
What a dream pick!
I came to watch this video from Curiosity Inc...
Cool thanks for checking us out.
They had a BIG silver dollar find today. 🤑
Who lived there??
Even I know the value and importance of some items you've shown in just the first half of this video.
That's an amazing find. And everything looked in pretty good shape. Well done!
Thanks Keith
i used to have those frogger and ms pac man table top games.but sold them years ago.i even seen a snoopy speedway i used to have.i should buy them,
I had the Pacman one as a kid, they were so cool.
"Sports cards don't have much value" LOL WHAT!?!
This feels really off to me, just the concept of walking through someones else's memories for a dollar...Or am I wrong and this is a dealers ex haul?
Agreed it is off and the people walking around celebrating their pilfering of someone else's hobby is pretty disgusting.
@@DeckardBR09 They bought it, they didn't pilfer it. Unfortunately it looks like the previous owner passed away and the family sold off their stuff. Better these guys who will appreciate it than someone who wont.
@@wildstarr Agreed, I've seen a few comments like this, I think people are jealous, I know I am lol
Great content🔥 we in the studio here completely enjoyed the footage of finds here !! 💥
Crazy come up ⬆️
pure goldmine, start with the vhs tapes are gold, the org toys classic, envy u
I have a lot of VHS watching in my future, I'm hoping for some cool OG commercials :)
That door covered in WRIF stickers.......Baaaby!
Yeah its pretty cool, hoping to repurpose it in the shop.
This is bringing me back many memories; I had most of this stuff.
Awesome, it had the same effect on us.
The USS Flagship ALONE was worth the buy! The MASK Rhino IN THE BOX! Awesome!
Yeah, that and the carded Star Wars stuff caught my eye from the get-go
I had that same clown light cover in my room as a kid. Didn't bother me, but creaped the hell out of my little brother he wouldn't sleep under it...lol
I don't blame him lol 🤡😂
What an awesome find.
