hey
Me and a few friends have 2 shops we sell out of. We have 4300 SQFT on 1 side and 6900 SQFT on the other and are opening a 37k SQFT store (Think antique mall) We buy/sell/trade I use Blowout to trade cards,comics and so forth but I thought I would put it out here for the other stuff ![]() We look for the odd,unusual and hard to find Metal cars/toys (no hot wheels or small die cast cars) Older Coke related products (Crates are a fast mover for us) Older Cola products (Dr Pepper,Crush,Pepsi,etc) Vintage/Colored Glass(Jars,bottles,etc pre 1960) 1975-1990 Toys revolving around super heroes,GI Joe,etc as well as Vehicles.(He-Man,Gobots,transformers) 1968 and lower bakelite toys,celluloid toys,metal toys and odd balls Zippos from 1982 and down Storm kings with localized advertising (EX:Rays Concrete Kalamazzo,MI) Kalamazoo lighters 1921-1936 Lunch Boxes pre 1980 Lunch boxes 1981-1995 with thermos only ..no thermos, no interest ![]() Random,odd-ball folk art Comics Confederate items (Buttons,sabers,Shackles,etc) SOME Taxidery pieces...we have REAL strict laws here in GA ![]() Vinyl 45 and 78 Signs, metal and other (Coke,Miller Light,ford,snapper,Cigarettes,etc,etc..Signs that are metal and older that look cool on the wall :P ) I mean, if it's man-cave, we sell it, we buy it and we trade for it ![]() Anyway, keep me in mind if you are looking for any man-cave stuff and if you are looking to sell some stuff.

Oh it is a man or Boys dream
![]() We get people who just come in and touch everything ![]() It's all fun for us. The issue is we PRICE it by how we buy it and we don't use guides. If there is a discrepancy we let the customer pull up ebay,get a consensus of a price,then we offer 70% if it is something that we know will sell or feel that sells. Most other stores I know use ebay for lowballing and a price guide for selling,so we get a LOT of repeat business ![]() Again, it is all about fun. You can't get rich being fair where vintage is concerned and we understand that so we just use this as our Cave away from Cave ![]() I will tell you, the oddball crap that comes through here is amazing. I purchased a crate of Lorillards snuff that has a tax stamp from 1919. 24 bottles,full and I LOVE that kind of stuff. Dont have any pics on the comp,but here is what it looks like EDIT:Wrong Image
