 She paid five bucks for this at an estate sale and took a best offer of $2,000. All right, here's another one. She is like a plush Bolo finder. My goodness. Hey, Bolo Buddies, thanks for watching. It's for online, little pony. Amazing, right? All right, let's get started. Hey, Bolo Buddies, thanks for watching. All right, in this video, we are gonna talk about the best December Bolo's. A Bolo is an item to be on the lookout for, an item you can hopefully buy low and sell for a profit. I'm gonna tell you where they got it, what they paid for it, and what it sold for. These come from my Facebook group members and my Bolo Buddies YouTube members. I posted this in my Facebook group, which looks like this, and this is my Facebook group. So if you're not in it, definitely go join it. And anyone is welcome to participate in this collab, we'll call it. So we're gonna get started here with some big money Bolo's, items as resellers that we need to be looking for. So the first item, 1987 Ventures. And she is a Bolo Buddies member, and that is her YouTube channel. And she said, this is one of the many items from one of my, one of our many private vintage toy picks. So approximately one to two dollars into it. It sold for full asking, plus shipping on Mercari within about a week. Also, $10 more than what I had it cross-listed on eBay for. So she had it on eBay and Mercari, and it sold for more on Mercari. And it happens, you guys, for sure. This is a South Park Beefcake Cartman action figure. And she sold this for $65 plus shipping. The next item she sold is, she said this was thrown in a box under a shelf of hats and gloves at a church thrift store. They had a sale going on that week before Christmas. Fill a paper bag for $5. I threw this in there and the bag was packed full of dolls, vintage gloves, clothing, and other stuff. So paid 50 cents, listed at high at 75 and took an offer in a few days for $50 plus shipping. And it's a vintage Mack Truck Bulldog Hood Ornament. And this is what it looks like. And this is the next one for Tracy. When I say they're a Bolo Buddies YouTube member, that means that they have joined Bolo Buddies memberships on my YouTube channel, level two to get perks, which means they get a mention in this video and a link, a clickable link down in the description of the video. So you guys make sure that you go and follow these YouTube channels, check out their eBay stores, it's all linked down below. All right, so she said, got this at a thrift store for 50 cents, had it listed for almost a year. It's sold at full asking price plus shipping minus 10% off sale we were running. It is a John Burke's Book of Old Time Fiddler tunes for Banjo Ampsco with record. And this is what it looks like. The next one, I bought both of these at the same estate sale for $10 a bottle. I knew eBay is cracking down on fragrances, so I tried to only buy ones with the box. One sold for 102 and the other for $64. Yes, if it is not new in the package from what I have been told, you are not allowed to list it. Here is a full video on what I found out about listing perfume on eBay. I will try to remember to link it down below, but if not, you guys can search Bolo Buddies for that. So it has to be new. So she sold this Lotter for Men cologne in the box for $64 and this Chaps Ralph Lauren natural spray cologne for $102 and this is what it looks like. Yeah, somebody said that they're supposed to be new with the original box. I used to sell tons of vintage perfumes, but I don't dare anymore. eBay sellers are getting a three-day suspension without a warning. Yes, and I talk about that in the video. And she said, yes, I know one of these had some volume loss, but both had original boxes. So I decided to gamble. That's what she said. So sometimes with perfume, there can be some evaporation, but I'm gonna say if it shows that it is not completely full to the top and you're not 100% sure that it is brand new, that I would not risk it. But that is me and everybody can do what they wanna do, but watch the perfume video. Okay, I picked these vintage 1950s Made in Japan Santa mugs at the Goodwill for 79 cents each. I had seen lots of vintage Santa mugs all over Instagram this season. So I knew I'd do okay on them. I had them at $99 and got lots of offers, but none were great. Dropped the price down to $84.99 and accepted a best offer of $75, bought and sold within a week. I think I could have gotten more, but I knew with Christmas approaching, I wanted to get them out quick. I bought seven and sold six. The last one was a little cracked, so he gets to stay here. So she kept one of them for herself. And this is what it looks like. They are Santa mugs. Always, always pick them up. Even if the paint is not perfect, I have done well with those. I mean, a lot of times, if there's little paint chips and missing paint, they're not gonna sell for as much, but you're still gonna be able to sell them for a profit. This one comes from the Rebel reseller. And oh my goodness, you guys. She said, this is one of her best sales ever on eBay. And if you guys are not following the Rebel reseller, why not? She's incredible. This is her YouTube channel right here. She paid five bucks for this at an estate sale and took a best offer of $2,000. So exciting, right? It is an Orcam MyEye 2.0 smart digital assistive reading device visually impaired. Don't know what it does. Don't know what it's for, but that's what she sold it for. Wow. Somebody put, wow. Okay, got in a lot of records on YouTube. Cost of lot was 32 for four records, so less than 10 bucks. Sold in a couple weeks on eBay for $55.75 plus shipping. It had been in my money pile for six months. How many people have a money pile that you go to sometimes and you list things and then they sell immediately and you're like, why didn't I list that sooner? Guilty. However, I am taking some of that big money pile to what not. So if you're not following me on what not, shameless plug right now. Go down into the description and follow me on what not because I'm gonna be bringing all kinds of crazy stuff, all right? This one comes from Mom Knows Treasures. This is her YouTube channel and it is a G.I. Joe Peter Pan Records something. It's some sort of record, but this is what it looks like and Mom Knows Treasures has a YouTube channel and she does talk about records over there. She sells a lot of records and she does really well with them. Me, I'm like, nope. I don't want anything to do with records. It's not my thing. Other people are like, I love records. I love records. And that is what is so fantastic about eBay and selling on multiple platforms is you can sell whatever you want. And because she specializes in that, she's gonna get those sales. I'm not gonna get them because I won't list them because I don't know how. I don't wanna test them. I don't know how, I just, I'm no good at it. So specializing in certain categories definitely will help you, you know, get those extra sales that maybe people are afraid to list in. Like I don't like furniture. I don't wanna do big stuff. So I'm losing out on those sales. So if you specialize in something that's a little bit different than maybe someone else, let me know what that is down in the comments. But definitely go over and check out her YouTube channel and she doesn't just sell records. She sells everything, but she's just really good at records. She likes it. Bought for $1.99 each at local thrift store. So for best offer of 125 plus 141 shipping. Whoa, that's expensive shipping. Use pirate ship and saved a bunch on shipping. These were extra tall, so USPS was crazy high. So I don't know if you guys know, but pirate ship has incorporated UPS into their equation now. It used to be USPS only. So you can get UPS rates over there. And it is an Annalie Dolls from the 1970s. They are 28 inches tall. They're giant standing Santa and Mrs. Claus. $1.99 each. Wow, that's fantastic. Bought a box of books at our Salvation Army. Was $5 for a large box full. I made four lots of books. This lot I took a best offer of 45. I had already sold one for 70 and two more lots to sell. And it says vintage science fiction, sci-fi, paperback books, various authors. So basically what she did is she got a whole big box of books and she parted them into smaller lots to make more money. And I do that a lot with books as well. Like I don't do single books, but if I can find multiple books by the same author or the same subject, I will lot them up. And I will tell you that books do well for me over on Mercari. If you're not selling on Mercari, I do have a referral link down below. You'll get $10 if you join with that link and that's to shop. But if you sell $100 worth of stuff, they give you another 20 bucks to shop. So really, really generous offer from Mercari there. And I was just doing my Mercari what sold, pulling up tabs for it because I'm gonna record that video tonight. And if you sell toys, you have definitely got to get on Mercari because oh my goodness, they just sell, they just do. So, but I love toys. So they sell on eBay also, but okay. I bought three of these Fenton Bird Christmas ornaments for $3 each at a garage sale this past summer. This one sold for $56.99. And this comes from eBay store, both the great and the small. And it is a Fenton woodpecker ornament, snowflake hand-painted and signed. And this is what it looks like. 12 days of Christmas winterberry small plates. These were stored in a mixing bowl on the shelf. I saw them when I was getting rid of stuff. One has a chip, but the rest are okay. Sold on Mercari the first time at the promoted price of $94. But the label pounds were wrong. So I canceled the sale and adjusted the price with the right label. She would pay the same total. The lady never got back to me. After a week, I put it back up and it sold for the original price of $99.99 and the adjusted shipping. I paid 79 cents each at the Goodwill maybe four years ago. But this is what her eBay store looks like. I'll have to see if I can find the Mercari. And she is a Bolo Buddies member. So these are Falscroff, I think is how you say it. Ooh, I don't know. Winterberry 12 days of Christmas decorative plates. All right, let's go on to the next one. Oh, I love this one. This was 99 cents, founded a thrift store. For God, I had it. Listed it on eBay, which automatically lists on Bonanza. Sold in four days. Bonanza, yeah, here we go. Bonanza store is Ray Nathan RZ09. And she sold this for $41.57. It is a SpongeBob Squidward Tie Beanie Baby Plush. It's a Beanie Baby. A Beanie Baby. $41.57 on Bonanza. Okay, got these in a filibag. Oh, in a bag for $2.99. It also included beds and furniture, which I didn't list yet. I also have another listing for a bunny with a bassinet. Sold on Mercari, picked this up because I watched Bolo Buddies YouTube channel. Thank you. Mercari sold these for $37. And they are Calico Critters. And I talk about these all the time. If you can find the vintage ones, they definitely sell for more. There are critters that look similar, that are called Woodseys. I think those are sold at Target maybe. But those will sell also, but if you can get the vintage Calico Critters, some of them are really hard to find and will bring in a nice profit. So $37 on those. All right, she said Abby did it again. She said, but mom totally messed up. I'll explain more in a second. So Abby's my daughter who's nine and has a talent for finding a Bolo plush. And she just recently started a YouTube channel and it's called The Merchants, Mary Garcia. And I'm gonna pop it up right here and link it down below. Her daughter is thrifting with her. And you gotta check out some of her videos because it's really cool they go into the thrift store together. And anyway. So remember the Sesame Street Grudgetta plus she flipped a while back? The kid brings in good money sourcing from the Goodwill Benz. She's even found a glassy baby in the Goodwill Benz before. Glassy baby's a big Bolo. Well, here's her latest big money Bolo. A limited edition 25th anniversary, Karapi from Hello Kitty Biltamare. She sourced at the Benz for maybe a dollar. He was pretty dirty but nothing a little oxy clean couldn't fix. She cleaned him. She took the pictures. She looked up comps. She listed based off of sold similar and it sold in a week. And she is nine years old, you guys. How cool is that? But here's the kicker. She said, mom put her store on sale and had a 10% off coupon going. I will exclude items from store sales that are the kids unless they say it's okay. And somehow this got included. Poor kid kept declining low ball offers all week knowing that Biltamare goes for 140 plus. She said she wasn't going to go lower than 100. So now mom is out 20 bucks to make up the difference because of my mistake. I'll gladly pay the price to help her feel financial freedom at nine years old. Okay, so it is a Biltamare. This is what it looks like. I've never seen this guy. It's fantastic. And she basically owes her daughter 20 bucks. How funny is that? That's such a cute story. Thanks for sharing. Okay, this one comes from Leo's Treasures. This is her eBay store. She does not have a YouTube channel. She said, I purchased this G DeBrette Prosperity Santa about five inches tall at an estate sale on half price day for $2.50. He sold for a best offer of $50 and the buyer paid shipping. And this is what he looks like. Here's another one. I purchased this box of vintage cross mechanical pencil replacement lead for two bucks at an estate sale. It's just the lead. It was missing two of the original tubes of lead. Sold it for $54.96 in the buyer paid shipping. Yeah, vintage, vintage, vintage, pens, pencils, lead, erasers, you name it, arts and crafts, bam. And here is her third one. I purchased this new in the box Kiss Rock Band Ornament at a thrift store for $1.50. I sold it for best offer of $44.44 and the buyer paid shipping. It's a Kurt Adler Kiss, the Kiss Band from 2011 ornament. This one comes from Bola Buddy's member, Peace of Scrap and this is her YouTube channel. Definitely sub her up. She is a new member and she says, here's one more along the clothing theme. Paid $8 at the Goodwill, accepted a best offer of $131 on eBay. They are UG Australia Classic Tall Amelia, a meal, I don't know. They're boots, size nine boots, there you go. Best offer of $131. All right, this one comes from Cat Feeling Thrifty and it's a pair of, ooh, Wystad, metal candle holders, Sweden Brass Adjustable, very rare. She said that she bought them at a yard sale for $6 and took a best offer of $62.50 and this is what they look like and she is Cat Feeling Thrifty on YouTube, I'm sorry, on eBay, but she's talking about being on YouTube and if you missed my latest, this is my Bolo video where all of my members come together and share a big money Bolo, but it's them talking to you instead of me, definitely go check that out because she actually did a video and I'm super excited about it. This one comes, this one comes, this one comes comes from the Churching King, Scott. Scott has a Bolo for us. He said, this is a Radco cookie jar. Sadly, Santa had a badly broken arm that had previously been poorly repaired. I paid 10, it sold for 265 plus 40 shipping. Unbroken, it would have sold for $1,000, but he still sold it for 265 broken. You gotta love that, right? Oh my goodness, look at that. That would not be fun to ship with all those antlers. You guys know I love to ship Ray Goals. No, no, kidding. Okay, this was a 1930s quilt topper, literally one of the coolest handmade quilt toppers I have ever seen. I was able to provide a little provenance with it. It sold for a best offer of 375 plus shipping. I paid 15 for it a private pick. It was listed 10 months. So he priced it really high at almost $800, took a best offer of 375. So with rare and unique items, one of a kind, you can go ahead and price the item really high. I do that all the time, but if that offer comes along and maybe it's been sitting for a little while, you have to decide what do I have in it and do I wanna take the offer? And in this case, he said, I'm gonna take the offer. So $375, so that was a great investment. All right, this one's a little bit hard to see. This is a bundle sale, but I still think it qualifies as a Bolo. This is all hunting clothing. It was purchased in an auction when a company called Six Sight went out of business in 2020. Melody and I bought 600 plus pieces for $1,800. This sale includes six pieces for a total of 325 plus shipping, about 50 per piece. We've sold over 400 pieces in the last two years for a gross of $15,000 to $20,000. Cha-ching King is a Bolo finder and he also over on his channel does a lot of videos for beginners. And it's really funny because there's so many videos out there that teach for beginners, but for some reason his are hitting the algorithm, probably because they're really good. So go check out Cha-ching King, especially if you're new, but if you wanna learn about big money Bolo's, he's also got those as well. So a wide variety of videos. Here is the picture, it's kind of hard to see, but I've never heard of Six Sight, so it's S-I-X-S-I-T-E, all one word. And it was a clothing bundle. So, hi Courtney, I am a new member. My eBay store is Palm Beach Vintage Hunter. I started selling on eBay in mid-January of this year. I have a couple of items to share. I found a FAO Schwartz Wolf Plush at a local thrift store and I recently talked about realistic plush in one of my videos. She said I paid a dollar for it. I saw that this particular wolf was very rare and none were currently listed. I listed it for $445 and had multiple offers overnight. I took an offer of $395. She paid $1 and turned it into $395. That is crazy. All right, so this is what it looks like right here. Wow, that's fantastic. Palm Beach Vintage Hunter, nice score. All right, here's another one. She is like a plush bolo finder, my goodness. All right, she said I found this Annalie Reindeer at a Salvation Army family store. It was pretty rough and very old. I did pay up a little for it since I knew it was original. She paid $12 for it. She sounds like me. I paid up, I paid $12 for it. Oh my goodness, I'm so cheap. I'm like, if it's not a dollar, I don't want it. No, I'm kidding. Okay, kind of. I do like to source cheap. But anyway, I couldn't find anything on this one or even anything similar. I just took a guess and listed it at $385. It took about a week to get an offer for $250 and I took it. And that was Palm Beach Vintage Hunter again. It's fantastic. Not, oh, this is mine. I'm like, that sounds like something I would say. I put not my biggest bolo, but I had someone ask me to do ornaments with, ask me if ornaments with dates sell. And the answer is yes. This one came out of a thrift store mystery box sold after Christmas. So it could have been someone who was taking down their tree and they broke it and they needed a replacement. This is one of those, I mean, it's from 1995 and it was after Christmas that it sold. So that is the only thing that logically makes sense in my mind. And I love having things that people need. That is why I like to really list old toys and vintage items, ornaments that have dates on them because someone is looking for it. Somebody ordered a plush lovey off of me the other day and I put it up for auction for $44.99 and it only had one bid. But I imagine this person would have paid like $600 for this thing, okay? But she won it for $44.99 and she sent me a picture when she got it of the new one next to the other two that had been just like so loved on that they were disgusting. And the new one was just like, so bright and vibrant. And I think I pulled that one out of the bends, but it just goes to show you that people are looking for things. And it's nice that we as resellers can bring these things to people. So anyway, the funny thing is I sold this ornament. It's a precious moments ornament, Baby's First Christmas from 1995. I sold it for 32, 24 plus shipping. And again, it's not my biggest bolo, but because it was kind of relevant and somebody had recently asked me, I went ahead and showed this, but would you not believe it? I was at the Goodwill Benz and I found the exact same ornament. Exact, I'm almost certain it's exact. And I'm like, are you kidding me? So I have another one to list. I gotta find it, it's somewhere in a bag. But yeah, I'll just hit sell similar and I'll be good to go. I'm on Facebook, so I'm sharing these for her. Yard, Sales and Dreams has been a long time member of my Bolo Buddies YouTube channel and she does not have a Facebook account. So I told her I would post them for her. So this is Yard, Sales and Dreams on YouTube. Definitely go and sub her up, but she did it real nice for me. She put everything in the little photo, so it's ready to go. I'm just gonna read it to you and pop it up. Paid a dollar to garage sale for this vintage bingles hat. It has a unique strap. The bingles are doing well the past two years, heading to the playoffs again this year. I have no idea about any sports. So vintage bingles apparel have increased in value. Excuse me. Sold it on eBay for full asking price of $99. Here's her next one. This antique stop sign. Oh, I was like, that doesn't make sense, but I was just reading it wrong. This antique stop sign base was purchased at a yard sale for 50 cents. Sold on eBay with best offer for $200. 50 cents into $200. Wow, buyer drove from Indiana to Kentucky to pick it up. It's a rare antique vintage original stop sign base. Wow, 50 cents. Wow, that is so cool. Bought this CP doll, cabbage patch doll, for $20 at an indoor yard sale. Sold on eBay auction for $177.50. I ran an auction because I wasn't sure how high it would sell. It is Justmar Spain Cabbage Patch Kid Girl Red Hair Green Eyes. Being made in Spain made it more desirable. All right, this one comes from Flippin' Hot Fines and here is her eBay store. She said, purchased at my local thrift store for three bucks. Sold on an offer for 60. I could have held out for more. I just wanted to move inventory fast as I had a large amount of inventory to store. It is a Mallorba. Oh boy, defeat. This is what defeat looks like. Mallorba Seterres Boutique. Probably said that totally wrong. Custom and embellished, 60 bucks. All right, the Bulldog Shop. This is her eBay store and wait until you see this big money Bolo. Biggest sale in my five years as a reseller. A neighbor was moving into a retirement center and I have been selling his books and pottery collection on consignment. When picking those up, I noticed this kit literally in the trash pile. I said, I thought it might be valuable and asked if I could sell it on consignment. Had a 10 day auction on eBay starting at 500. Sold for $2,124 with shipping and sales tax. Buyer was all in for 2,379 and left positive feedback within hours of receiving it. What a relief, owner and I profited 900 each. It was in the trash. How thankful do you think that person is? Wow, that is awesome and great eye. Okay, here's another one from the Bulldog Shop. I purchased 20 boxes of old books on an online estate auction for $415. I donated the dud books to the Goodwill and kept the 100 books that were worth selling. So I spent about $4 per book, $4 for this book. Research price on Worthpoint sold on Etsy for 350 plus shipping. It's Edgar Allen Poe, Tales of Mystery and Imagination 1919 Suede Leather Antique Book. That is fantastic. All right, I purchased this doll and this is also the Bulldog Shop. I purchased this doll and 12 other similar ones at an online estate auction for 35 each. Researched them on Worthpoint before buying. I like buying batches of the same kind of items, makes listing and shipping easier. Sold on eBay for a best offer of 175. It is a Vintage Lindsay Antonia, Antonia, I don't know. Felt doll, 20 inches, pink dress, Italy hand-painted and that's what she looks like. All right, this comes from Lola's Trunk Treasures who also gifted me this awesome owl necklace. It's trifari, you guys, it's crown trifari. How cool is that? She bought it for me from Donatella Badalino's YouTube auction and I just love it, love it, love it. And it's an owl, if you can't tell. It's an owl and I love owls. So thank you, Laura, I appreciate it so much. But this is Laura's Bolo, Lola's Trunk Treasures on eBay. Purchased for $5 at a local thrift store, sold for $94.99 and buyer used 20% off $50 coupon. So final sale price was $75.99. After tax and shipping, they were all in for $90.89. It is a vintage Bucilla felt applique Christmas tree skirt, definitely a Bolo. Here's another one from Lola's Trunk Treasures. Purchased complete set of Elise Dinsmore books, 28 books total, all the same time, Goodwill, rare to find a complete set all at the same time and I actually did this two times this month. Paid 51 for the set and sold in a matter of days for 160. Buyer used 20% off 50 coupons. So final sale was 128 after tax and shipping. Buyer was all in for $149.43. And this is her next one. Purchased 20 vintage Vogue patterns for $0.25 each at an estate sale in November. I took a best offer for this one for $79.99. It's a Vogue pattern, you guys.

She said, pick these up as part of an estate clean out, got a dollar into each of them and took a best offer of 35 plus shipping. They are 1993 military mountain men, mighty heroes, land blitz and night shark. Sorry, it's really small, hard to see, but that's what it looks like. Ooh, this next one. Paid $1.50 at a local thrift store and sold for full asking price of 53 plus shipping. This is also AEG's Estate Treasures. And she does estate clean outs and she's hoping to get reseller boxes in her eBay store. So make sure you're following her. This says, Betty Spaghetti doll and accessories. Yes, I have sold Betty Spaghetti, definitely a Bolo right here. Founded the Goodwill for $5. Listed for 98 and accepted an offer of $82. Buyer paid shipping. This one comes from eBay store, horse and hare curiosity shop. And she has an incredible eBay store with like just, I don't know how she finds these things.
