I'm also thinking of selling all the unembossed milks at a neighbors yard sale soon. What should I ask? I was thinking a dollar per 1/2 pint(2=pint, 4=quart, 8=half gal.) is that too much? Or just 1 dollar increments?
Hey Josh, I always sell the halves for $2 because they are more popular......Ummm....Rarer. The pints and quarts for $2 because they are common......Ummm......Not as rare. The half gallon for $4 because they are bigger and rarer. That way those peps that think they would look cute in their kitchen filled with beans will snap them up and I don't have to store them any more.
Use Ebay hipe at yard sells and the flea and pepole will buy more. A little history, a little excitement, a little salesmanship = a little-o-cash and nothing to bring home.
Thanks alot. I've always just collected, but I need to get rid of alot of stuff. My old collection is being replaced with rarer/cooler stuff, and alot of things I have doubles(except SS Cokes, sorry cap)[]. I found pieces of one I haven't seen before the other day, but still only 2 in my collection. I've got alot of common meds and other oddball cork bottles that are post 1900 that I no longer have room for. Thought of making some displays, like a shadowbox to sell using smaller bottles like meds. We'll see what happens. Thanks again.
Excellent picture of the amber beers. I think outdoor lightning is always the best for taking pics of bottles. I must say too that they are very clean!
Hey Josh, I've found if you sell at yard sales you can sell bottles as decorator items,a collection of meds + inks for a mans study or den,jars and food bottles for a kitchen window.And food storage.
You get the idea
