This past weeks thrift finds for reselling are.....only three things.
I always check out the holiday section in the thrift stores, you never know what you may find. I found 2 out of 3 of the vintage Homeco Christmas Racoons figurines. These are most likely from the 1980's. I searched and searched the shelves for the other racoon with no luck. I am missing the one holding gift boxes, bummer. I think these will still sell as replacement pieces. I paid just $1 for each one, they do not sell for very much online. Comps were about $4.50 on eBay. I will hold on to these until the fall and list them individually, fingers crossed the comps go up. I will keep an eye out for the third one.
FYI, if your out resourcing and come across the Homeco Christmas elves/fairies or the angels and they are in excellent condition, pick them up they have pretty good resell value.
I picked up a ox blood glaze studio pottery vase for just $2. The potters business card was inside the vase, that rarely happens in a thrift store. This vase was made by Dick Lehman Potter Goshen, Indiana. His pottery resells around $20 on Poshmark and bit lower on eBay. Unfortunately , Etsy does not show sold prices on their website, though you can find them through google lens, when the listing has sold. I will be listing this piece for $24 on Poshmark in the coming weeks.
As you can see, sometimes its slim picking for reselling. I have more time for picking my previous picks and there is a lot.
Happy hunting and have a terrific weekend!
