<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 147477, member: 23&quot;]So many yard sales bill themselves as &quot;Estate&quot; sales that I usually ignore it.&nbsp; My son called and told me about one yesterday.&nbsp; The house was one of the oldest in town - late 1700s-early 1800s.&nbsp; Awesome view of a pond.&nbsp; The antiques were the real thing and priced well beyond my purse.&nbsp; The company running it also wouldn&#039;t deal.&nbsp; The prices were max, so there was no opportunity for a dealer to buy for resale.&nbsp; I saw all the usual folks there and very few were buying.&nbsp; I&#039;m sure they&#039;ll send anything not sold to auction.&nbsp; There was lots of glass and china, primitives, furniture, some books, samplers.&nbsp; I did manage to get two books - one is the collected history of the towns on Cape Cod.&nbsp; It must weigh 10 pounds.&nbsp; It was marked &quot;Quaker Bible&quot; and marked $15.&nbsp; I brought that to their attention and they said $10.&nbsp; Sold.&nbsp; The other one is a history of Milford, MA with a bunch of what looks like very old personal letters stuck in the back.&nbsp; Another $10 and I&#039;ll check out the letters later today.&nbsp; I also got two mint crock covers for $3 each.&nbsp; Yay!&nbsp; I needed covers for a couple of crocks and they&#039;re hard to find.&nbsp; And that was all I could afford.&nbsp; Most everything else started at $100 and went up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
