50 Times People Discovered Such Surprising Secondhand Finds, They Just Had To Share Pics Online
Thrift stores, flea markets, and garage sales are basically new versions of ancient archeological sites.
Upon entering them, you never know what you're gonna find and hours later, it's usually one of the two: either you leave empty-handed, asking yourself why spend so much time for nothing, or come across a hidden gem that makes even those disappointing endeavors worth it.
Interestingly, the Facebook group 'Vintage and weird things you have found' has the best of both. Its 185K members regularly share pictures of their most memorable discoveries, and if they don't inspire you to check out your local second-hand store, honestly, I don't know what will.

When You’re Lucky Enough To Wake Up At 3 Am To Use The Bathroom And Log Onto Facebook Marketplace And Find The Camper Of Your Dreams That You Wanted For Years

There is no way that camper is cheap which means that someone saw and decided they had that much cash on hand in 11 mins... I'm impressed in a 'god I'm poor' way.
Chances are, online groups like 'Vintage and weird things you have found' are going to be getting more and more content. As inflation continues driving shoppers to reach deep into their pockets, many are doing what they can to make or save some extra cash. One of those options is second-hand selling and shopping.
"We purchase 200-300 items every single day," Style Encore at Lake Charles, Louisiana, owner Stacey Buller said. An industry that was hurting during the height of the pandemic is now seeing more business with inflation-propelled costs.

Found This Unique Table While Thrifting. Very Intricate

Funny thing, I'm basically afraid of my own shadow, but I would have no problem having this in my house. I only know these boards from US movies, never seen one in real life and did not grow up knowing/ using/ hearing about them. So, they are just like decoration or some such thing for me.

If it has any chips or cracks lead can leach out, especially with acidic stuff like tea. You can buy lead testing kits for foreign made or vintage products which might have lead glaze and should only be used occasionally, or not at all. Modern decorative items are required to be labelled "not food safe." Anything made in North America since 1971 is lead free, when laws were passed banning lead in ceramics used for food. Even when these gorgeous items were made they were mostly intended for show, not use. Tea can ruin them. I drink tea, not coffee and tea stains horribly. You either have to scour the stains or bleach them which ruins your beautiful China pieces. I wouldn't drink tea from anything so pretty. Anyone who owned this before never drank tea from it, you can bet on that. China cabinet to look at only item.

If it really has lead in it, then probably not. It is a beautiful decoration tough

Look What I Got Today. I Have Wanted A Vanity Like This Since I Was About 12
Ranger Kanootsen 3 years ago
It's wonderful! I can see why you'd want it. I want one now too!!
Fester Sixonesixonethree 3 years ago
My great aunt, Lillian, had one of these in her bedroom. Her house and her "nice" furnishings were a gift from a married man with whom she had an affair. They had a daughter, and the man was very gracious in supporting his paramour and her daughter. Anyhow, the vanity matched a set of drawers, and similar elements were carved into the headboard of a beautiful sleigh bed. The entire "suite" was done in cherry. This is how I remember them. I'm glad you got your vanity - and thanks for stirring up some old memories.

A Book With A Bullet Hole
Published 1896. This is one of the coolest things I've ever found. Not only is it a trove of lost music and poems, it's well traveled, I found it in a dump of a thrift store in Hollywood, and I'm not the only one who has found it interesting. It has many inscriptions one states it was a gift from some store owner to her writer friend and she got it from TX which had traveled from South Carolina. (See below.) And stranger still? There is a freaking bullet hole in it! (The bullet is gone btw.) But why?! I wish I knew. Was it in someone's pocket? At a saloon? In someone's library? Why the bullet hole? Why?!
Edit: I'm so glad you all find this as interesting and charming as I do! I've added more photos for you all to enjoy! Also turns out there was a Sadiee Gollithan who lived in Nashville around that time. What an odd yet cool name.

Someone probably set it up to shoot at it. My brother did this once when he was 18 or so. My parents were away. He set up a shooting range in the boonies with my mother's flower arranging books, he thought they were useless and she 'didn't need them' -- he used an air rifle though, and did it for fun. Then he put the books back in their places. He got into so much trouble when my parents saw the books with the holes in.

Nutshell version: a TV ad from 1999 introduced the idea of teeny little adorable hippos living in everyone's home. We see him wandering around the house, confusing the other family pets as it goes about its business. Of course it wasn't real, which is the whole point of the ad aimed at kids: don't believe everything you see on TV. A mild hit when it first aired, the internet and especially YouTube brought it a new life a few years ago which led to a new version aimed at social media sites.

Of course it wasn't real, which is the whole point of the ad aimed at kids: don't believe everything you see on TV. A mild hit when it first aired, the internet and especially YouTube brought it a new life a few years ago which led to a new version aimed at social media sites.

Resultant egg is similar to a boiled egg . . . . . but subtly different. Definitely worth a try (you'll need some experiments with regards to egg size, timings, egg softness etc.) but the results will be rewarding. You could consider adding some extra little titbits - e.g. bacon (previously cooked), ham, cheese, onions . . . . . your imagination is the only limitation.

Found These At A Yard Sale Today. Was Told They Were Made For Disney. Any Info Would Be Helpful. Any Idea Of Value?
Kylie Mountain 3 years ago
This is just thoughts based on what I've picked up from Antiques Roadshow... but you're going to have to do some research and examine them more closely, even assuming your information was good. I would try to find any kind of maker's mark or label on them as a first step. Questions I would try to answer: What were they actually for? Were they intended as decoration of some sort at one of the parks? Are they some kind of design model for animated films? (Off the top of my head, Kung Fu Panda and Frozen spring to mind, but that's total speculation.) How many of them would have been made? If there were hundreds, your value is likely to be less than if there were, like, three. Can you find any kind of documentation? There's boatloads of Disney collectors out there, but it would likely be tough to sell them without some sort of evidence that they were made for Disney, and that would hurt the value a lot.
Linda Kubiak 3 years ago
Looks like the figures and animatronics in the Prirates of the Caribbean ride. Sometimes specialty items that are created for a specific purpose will not have any makers marks. It's best to get more information from the individual who sold the items and trace back. Sometime written documentation of how you came into these items (the story behind it) can increase the value!
