I own a vintage toy store, but I'll pick up anything I can make a buck on and have been doing so for a long time now. I go to probably 30-50 auctions per year, hit numerous garage sales, antique shows, flea markets, tag sales and scour the internet for poorly listed items.
Some of my better scores have been a game used Tris Speaker bat for $50 that I sold for $9000, a train set for $400 that sold for $7900, a lamp for $3 that sold for $2700. My brother found a vacuform wall hanging of the Universal Monsters Creature From The Black Lagoon for $100 that he sold for $13,000. It now resides in the collection of Kirk Hammett of Metallica.
