 Let's talk about some other cross stitch items right now. And as I was doing my research, I learned some stuff. So I think you guys are gonna learn something too. Wait until you see this one brand. I've never heard of it. Cross stitch kits definitely can be a big money bolo and I'm gonna show you what I mean in just a second. Hey, bolo buddies. Thanks for watching. It's from my little pony. Amazing, right? All right, let's get started. They do range from bread and butter to big money. So definitely do your research. What's really great is cross stitch kits right up in the corner of every cross stitch kit. If it's not in the top corner, this is dimensions. So you find it up in the corner. You type that into the search bar along with this one is dimensions, the brand. And you're probably going to find your item. Now, this one, I couldn't find it. And I knew that I had a big money bolo on my hands. This was in a recent video that I did and I had an offer of $125 that I declined. And let me show you this one. You guys probably know that Avon calendars are a big money bolo. They are advent calendars. Advent calendars in general, you wanna pick them up because a lot of them are big money. And if they're not big money, they're bread and butter. And they're usually a quick flip. So this is that dimensions. It is a cross stitch kit. It is not the gold collection. The gold collection are amazing. This is just a regular dimensions kit. It is from 1984, so it is vintage, but it says Advent ABC's Chris Davenport's colorful design makes the long wait till Christmas fun for the whole family, hang special treats, candy or small trinkets from each star, then remove one by one until December 25th. At the same time, children can practice their ABC's. And it's an 18 by 14. So there's the information right there that I just read to you. And again, I could not find any solds on this. So I priced it high, I think I priced it at like 200 plus, but it was on sale 30% off, I believe right now for 175. I turned down 125, but somebody offered me 150. So I went ahead and took that. Now, if I would have waited until closer to Christmas, I probably could have got in the $200 range. That's just me speculating, because honestly, there's no comps. So $150 for this. I picked this up at a thrift store. There's a video on that. It looks like this. If you wanna go check out what I paid for it. Here's what the back looks like. So it's got the thread and it's a kit. It's a cross stitch kit. So let's talk about some other cross stitch kits. And I'm gonna show you some big money Bolo's to be on the lookout for. Let's get started. Okay. So I just shared with you that awesome Bolo that I sold. Super excited about that one. After I didn't accept the 125, I was kind of like, now you get that? Should I have accepted it? But I just, I knew that I could get more. And I really think that I probably could have got more than what I took, but that's okay. I'm super happy with that sale. Let's talk about some other cross stitch. I'm gonna show you some of my items right now. And as I was doing my research, I learned some stuff. So I think you guys are gonna learn something too. Wait until you see this one brand. I've never heard of it. Like we all know about dimensions. And we're gonna talk about that a little bit. Which ones to look for. But this brand never heard of it. And there's a whole bunch that go for big money. So stay tuned for that. All right. Let's get started here. So first off, here is my sale right here. And I noticed that I didn't put calendar in the title. But if you look here, it's not actually numbered. This is an ABC Advent. Okay. But it works the same way. But it's basically doing the ABCs. Okay. So this one, I went ahead and just typed in Advent Calendar just to see what else would come up on the high solds for cross stitch. And there is one that is the Gold Collection Advent Calendar. And this one went for 143.50. So mine was not the Gold Collection and it went for more. But from what I have found, the one that I found is really, really, I'm gonna use the word rare because no comps, people were messaging me about it. I had multiple offers. It was definitely an item that's hard to find. So this one right here is the Gold Collection. It's the Joyous Advent 143.50 and 129.50. Two of those that sold. Now here's one that it says Dimensions Christmas Plastic Canvas Kit, Teddy Bear Advent Calendar. So this is the plastic canvas and it's probably shaped like a tree. That one went for 49.99 on Best Offer. So not really 100% sure what that sold for. Here's another Dimensions. Here's what I'm gonna say about these two. These were put on a buy it now. I personally, anything Advent and Dimensions, I would price higher. But maybe this is kind of the going rate for this calendar, but I typically price up, especially on things that I know people collect and that are in high demand. And if you guys don't know about the Avon calendar, that's another great one to be looking for. It has nothing to do with cross stitch. It's just an old Avon Advent calendar that is big money. So here's a few more of the Dimensions. Just some different styles. These are bread and butter, you know, $35 or less, but still great pickups. If you're at a garage sale and you see these and they're a buck or two, definitely pick them up. They will sell. So I always pick up pretty much any cross stitch if I can get it for a dollar or less because it's gonna be at least bread and butter, sorry. This one, I don't know if it's, it kind of looks like it's just the cardboard there. So not 100% sure on that. All right, so let's get into some of these cross stitch kits. If you search, I do wanna show you this, let's go to a cross stitch kit and we are gonna search ended recently, okay? All listings, not just auctions, all listings. And we're just gonna kind of go through here and look at some of the solds. And what I want you to see is prices, sold prices are all over the place. We've got 22 on this one. This is a Dimensions. This is a gold collection. If you find the gold collection, always start them high if you're gonna auction them or comp them out and price, this is my recommendation, price on the high end of comps and put a best offer on it. That is what I would do if there's a few listed. I also recommend getting these items on other platforms because sometimes these items are saturated, let's say on eBay and Poshmark and Mercari may only have one or two listed or maybe none. You may sell it for more on those other platforms. I start my items on eBay and then I use list perfectly to cross post my items to the other platforms. List perfectly, I use it to cross post. Now they do have a catalog where you can list into the catalog and I'm gonna have more information on that soon. But what I do is I just get my items in eBay and then get my items over to the other platforms. If you wanna try list perfectly, there's a demo video down in the description that shows you how it works. And if you're interested, you can use coupon referral code BOLOBUDDIES, all one word to get 30% off your first month. I've been using it since 2019, you guys, and I love it. So here's probably something you shouldn't do is start your auction super low. This one went for $5, but we are gonna go into this. This is a do it yourself DIY diamond painting. They're calling this cross stitch. And again, we're gonna go more into this soon. So stay tuned for that, because this is something that I found from doing this research. So here's a JLIN or JANLIN. These typically do not go for as much. That doesn't mean there's not some out there in the wild that are worth more, but typically bread and butter on that brand. Here's a Bucilla. That's another good brand. This one went for 69, another gold collection. They had it at 49.99. So like I said earlier in the video, it's really easy to comp these because they have an item or a cross stitch kit item number. So it's right up here in the corner, depending on which one you have. This one went for 9.99. I think this looks like maybe a smaller kit. So these are just some of the recent solds. Here's one, a gold collection that sold for 399.99. So those gold collection are definitely big money if I find those. And I missed one at a garage sale. It was actually in my church sale video. Somebody's like, you had a gold collection in your hand and I think it was one of the smaller ones. I have no idea why I sat it down, but I did. So we all make mistakes. All right, let's move on here. So here's one. Another good thing aside from gold collection cross stitch kits to look for are any stocking cross stitch kits. Now, if you can find the gold collection, that's a double bonus, okay? But even if it's just a stocking kit, those make great bread and butter, but some of them can go for 100 bucks even if they're not the gold collection. So look for the stockings. This one is a gingerbread haunted house. So this is Halloween themed, but I also noticed the word sampler. It's right here in the title, the Victoria sampler. Not sure if there's another one that I'm gonna show you that says sampler also that went for big money. This one sold for 153.61. So this is Halloween, it's vintage and it's a sampler. This one here is another gold collection stocking, 162.50. So you've got the stocking. Here is another stocking gold collection, 165.50. Look how cute these are. I mean, they're amazing. Now, this one is just a gold collection dimensions and this one has, the picture could definitely, it could be better, for sure the photos could be better and collections not in the title. I would definitely put gold collection in the title, but it still sold for 182.50 even though it was not a great title and not great pictures. Gold collection right here, 202.50, tender loving care. This one's called and another gold collection. So as you can see, gold collection is a Bolo. And as I was searching, I kept seeing these do-it-yourself diamond art kits. And if you look up here, people are putting them under cross stitch kits. So even though it's not in the title, when I search cross stitch kits, these come up. So what this is, is it's some sort of like little beads or something and you somehow, let me see if I can zoom in here, put these little dots onto a canvas. So they're calling it a cross stitch. I don't know why because it's not cross stitch, but maybe because it kind of looks like a cross stitch when it's done, I'm not 100% sure. But apparently some of these are big money Bolo's. This one sold for 225.50 on auction. And again, the photos are not fantastic. So if you look here, I went into this seller's feedback and look, diamond art. Let's see, diamond art club, diamond art club, diamond art club, 140, 250, 251, 130, 122, 162. Let's look at this one right here. 251 on this one. So definitely if you see these out, look them up. Looks like they have a barcode, but this is not a scannable barcode. So you are gonna have to put love at its darkest, do it yourself, diamond art kit and search it that way. But those were all solds and over $100 for these. Here is the other one that I was talking about that says sampler. Morning has broken sampler. And this one sold for $264 in auction style. And it looks like somebody has written on here. So this one is it, it says new. I was gifted these from an estate and I will be listing many items over the next week. Most items on are open and have original price stickers. I don't know. Looks like someone wrote on it, right? Okay, the next one here is Nan's boutique, just Nan, okay? Pay attention here. This is, because I didn't know this, Nan's boutique. Delightful decorative details. This is just a detail. How many of you would have walked right past this? Just Nan, you see it right here? Just Nan. And it's a tassel. This sold for $74.11 plus shipping. Now are you ready for the cross stitch kits? $98 on this one. This one's called Just Nan. Right there, Just Nan Harmony. Let me know in the comments, did you know about this brand? Because I did not. This one sold for 98. Just wait. To be continued, Lady Scarlet's Journey by Just Nan. This is another kit, okay? It looks like this one comes with some extra pieces. This one sold for $109.50. Scream House by Just Nan. So this one kind of got your Halloween theme. 127.50. Christmas Workshop by Just Nan, okay? And these are a little bit fancy. They come with some extra little things inside the kit. 172.49. Here's another one. This one is called Merry 15 by Just Nan. Again, a Christmas themed item. 202.50 on this one. And it, no pins. It's missing the pins it looks like. Here's another one. Cross Stitch Silver Needle, 2009. Just Nan, Merry 15, $368 plus shipping. And you can see right here, wonderful kit. Thank you so much, $368.00. This item was paid for. So if you are in the listing and you wanna know, did the person actually pay for the item? This is one way to check. You go into the feedback. And it looks like this person sells a lot of Cross Stitch. You put in, like, let's just put in Just Nan. And you can see here, $368.00. Here's one that sold for $57.42, $47.00 and $113.00. So that's their sales just on the Just Nan. Let's go in here. And let's go to Sellers Other Items. Let's go over to Sold. And let's search highest first and just see what else they're selling. It looks like this is, Needle, Needle Smith is the name of the store. So, oh, look at this one right here. Here's another one. Tea with Honey, Just Nan, 250. Fancy that Santa's Workshop. Cross Stitch Chart Cardstock, 191.26. Fancy that Tom the Toymaker. Fancy that. So here's another one. Fancy that must be a good one. Let's go in here and see if we can look at what the packaging looks like because they have it zoomed in. And this is one that I don't know about. Okay, lookie there. Fancy that. There is another one that I have never seen before and probably would not have, I probably would have picked it up if it was cheap, but I wouldn't have known that it would be a big money bolo. So, and I don't know if they all are, you definitely got to do your research, but here's another one. Fancy that, 152.50. The Plantation Sampler. Again, sampler seems to be like a word that's important that goes, when sampler's in the title, some of those go higher. Here's some more fancy that. So, wow. Definitely glad we came in here and looked at this. So this is another great way to research. Here's the JustNan. This is, looks like just the one piece there with my needle. 50 bucks on that one. JustNan. All right, you guys, I don't know about you, but I definitely, definitely learned a lot from researching the cross stitch kit. So I sold that kit tonight and I'm like, you know what? I wanna show everybody that this sold. And then I was thinking, you know what? Let's just kind of do a little research and I'll record it and kind of share with everybody what I find. And I actually found a lot of stuff I didn't know. So I'm super excited about that. I have done other, I think I did one other cross stitch video, but it's been a while ago. So this is an updated version. If you would like to see more videos like this Bolo category videos, I have over a hundred. And I have a whole playlist and it says category videos. If you wanna see more videos just like this, check that out. And my channel is all about Bolo items. If it's your first time here, I would love for you to subscribe. Bolo means be on the lookout, be on the lookout. Items to be on the lookout for, items you can hopefully buy low and sell high. That's what I talk about. I do also have a new series called, do not sell these items. And these are items that have been removed from eBay or people have gotten suspended. They are Vero's items, do not list. So check out that series. I think I probably have five, six, maybe seven up already and more to come. And thank you for being here. Leave me a hat emoji if you made it this far. And thanks for watching.
