<p>[QUOTE=&quot;evelyb30, post: 11411524, member: 36&quot;]I think most places now get skimmed before we ever see the merch. Even the local senior center did that for a while.&nbsp; The food pantry thrift in the next town was pulling scarves off of the rack while I was standing there, to sell on their web page. (hand rolled hems y&#039;see.) </p><p><br /></p><p>It can still pay to know more than the dealers, and have your eye in.&nbsp; Last year I found a bunch of Manoil skaters and such in a ReStore for $3 for the whole box.&nbsp; Years back now, it was two 18k chains in the Costume pile in an antique store.&nbsp; I think the &quot;expert&quot; dealer thought they were fakes.&nbsp; Paid $50 for my lot of stuff, and flipped the chains for $2000 to a dealer.&nbsp; It&#039;s getting harder and harder.&nbsp; Forget looking at Hoodwill; they phone scan everything, and only put out &quot;good&quot; stuff by accident. Rare accident.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
