Terms & Conditions

We accept Cash, Credit Cards, Venmo and PayPal - We do not accept bit coin, IOU's or shiny beads (baked goods on the other hand could be used to barter on a case by case basis- obviously as it is pumpkin spice season, those will carry greater value). (WE CANNOT HELP LOAD LARGE ITEMS, no seriously. We are very bad at it, the last large item we helped load resulted in a 12 hour emergency room visit so it's just better for all parties that we are not involved with moving heavy things. We are not responsible for any accidents (except our own see previous item about loading). All items sold as is, where is, all sales are final.

This one is a doozy!

The house was built in the 1950's by our clients father!  So besides great little 50's house features, like actual walls separating rooms, hallways that can fit more than one person in them at a time, and the legit best turquoise laminate countertops in the kitchen I've ever seen (seriously if you buy this house and pull out that countertop I will haunt you until your dying day - yes even while I'm alive), the stuff we've found here is gonna blow you away.

Now I know people usually don't bother to read this part, they just skip straight to the pictures and let me tell you I am guilty of that too but I'm just gonna give you a bit of a run down of the things we've got in store for you for anyone searching specific keywords:

Magnalite - Yes we have a whole bakers rack full.  Yes it is the old good stuff.  And yes it all looks as if it has never been used a day in it's life.

Corning Ware - We've got the usual, Spice of Life and Blue Cornflower, even a little bit of the Country Festival but also patterns I'd never even seen before but am now obssessed with - Floral Bouquet and Pastel Bouquet.

Pyrex - We've got a full Cinderella Butterprint set (FULL DISCLOSURE: There is a small chip on the underside handle of the largest bowl - Yes, I know it's there, yes I did price it accordingly.  We've got a great snowflake dish perfect for any holiday potlucks this season and even one cheeky little Flamingo baking pan.

Fostoria, Anchor Hocking, and Fire King are all over the kitchen and dinning room.

There is a plethora of mid century pottery:

McCoy planters, California Pottery and Miramar serving pieces, Jaru vases

Uranium Glass, Depression Glass, and Milk glass pieces - not to mention some gorgeous Lead Crystal

The most stunning freaking Blenko Hand blown decanter I have ever seen in my life.

Murano glass clowns, fish, chickens and one elephant.

We've got all the metals too - Silver edged glass pieces, gold toned serving ware, and brass figures and pots

Hand painted china, breathtaking Mid Century lamps, and funky barware pieces. 

I know it's late in the season but there are some really great outdoor garden items, concrete statues, cast iron pieces, brass planters.

There's even stuff for the men folk - we've got a pair of longhorns that I'm not even sure will fit in a regular size vehicle, Cool beer steins, vintage soda bottles - hell we've even got China with a pattern your husband will love, no seriously, it's got fish on it.  Like it's fancy china but it has fish on it.  An oh yeah, we've got another sale some sports stuff - baseballs, gloves (like good ones, there was a minor league player in the family so these are like serious gloves here I've been told) oh and baseball cards.  Yes.  More baseball cards. (Also basketball and some football)

We haven't even gotten to the furniture yet.  

Some of the most incredible Mid Century/Art Deco Bedroom sets I've ever seen.  These pieces are works of art y'all.  

Did I mention the lady liked to sew?  Not only do we have a few (4 at last count) sewing machines, but she also made a lot of her own clothes.  So we've got some awesome handmade vintage pieces along with some great store bought vintage pieces.  She love to accessorize too so we've got vintage belts, jewelry and purses for any outfit you can put together.  (seriously the purses are kind of insane)

What else?  Really cool old books, Oh!!!!  There's a lot of vintage Christmas stuff - some things I have never seen!  But we've got the regular stuff too - Shiny Brites (some in the original boxes) even some christmas lights.

I haven't even gotten to the garage yet - a full 4 car garage with fun stuff I haven't even seen yet cause we're still pulling it out.  

So you know, you'll probably find something if you come on by.

Yes.  This is exactly what you think it is.  For those of you who didn’t immediately gasp, or faint, or jump up and shout Hallelujah, praise the lord! - let me explain.  This is a rotating light wheel that is also a three stand!  Forget about all these old school spotlight wheels, they can only light one side of the three at a time.  This baby lights your tree 360 degrees.  Look them up.  I’ll wait.  The Mid Century pottery in this house was amazing.  Every other cabinet or box we opened was like Christmas morning in the Upper West Side in 1963.  I was enchanted by this plate the first time I saw it.  Nothing in my house is vey….fishy.  The colors are stunning for sure, but like, the fish - I both hate and love them.  The fact that plate is shaped like a fish but also has fish around the plate.  Also it’s a weird shape to serve fish in so it’s not even for fish.  And yet, I still love it.I have no idea why there is a pineapple in the middle of a tray of pink leaves and I don’t care.  I love everything about this.  What would you serve in it?  What wouldn’t you serve in it.  You don’t even have to use it as a server - put it on your dresser and keep jewelry and change or q-tips whatever.  But this thing deserves to be out and used.Good old McCoy pottery.  I’m loving the bamboo.  I’m loving the color, and I’m loving the size and shape.  We’ve got some flower frogs on the porch that would help you make a great ikibana arrangement.This  California pottery  soup tureen, combined with the slowly dropping temperature, has been making me crave soup.  I’ve literally made like 3 different soups in the past two weeks - I’m not saying it’s this guys fault, but it’s totally this guys fault.The wooden tissue box you see here is hand made!  It was also built into the bar before we took it off (shhh…don’t tell the realtor - obviously that would have been a huge selling point.The blue and white surprised me.  After pulling out all the MCM pottery I wasn’t expecting this country kitchen/oriental style but somehow it works.This cobalt is calling your name.  I know it is because it’s calling mine.  NOTHING in my house is cobalt, but you know how little that means when something calls to you.I’ve never seen this Johnson Bro’s pattern but it really is nice - regardless of what the little bear thinks.  Look at his face - who does he think he is, judging me?  He’s a spoon.The lighting doesn’t do this justice.  Great little California Pottery piece.  But seriously in the 60’s why was the dip portion of the chip and dip bowls so small?  Was it to keep people from double dipping?  Were they just cheap?  Will we ever know.This is the Corning version of the Pyrex friendship pattern.  Some of the Corning versions were straight up copies of the Pyrex versions - then there are ones like this that are like….the Frank Stallone versions.This is Floral Bouquet - I have never seen this pattern before and I need y’all to buy it all cause I literally have no more cabinet space for “dishes you’re not even gonna use”.These are Pastel Bouquet - not very creative with the names- I’ve also never seen this pattern before, which led me down a rabbit hole - how many Corning Ware patterns are there and who was buying them.  Cause I’ve literally only seen the same 3 patterns over and over and over and over again.  (The answer is there’s a lot more than you think and no one was buying them cause honestly they weren’t that great)Ahh, here we are, back in familiar Spice o’ Life territory.  Which lets all be honest here, it’s not exactly the prettiest girl at the party, but she stands the test of time. Does any one else want to break into a rousing version of “Spice up Your Life” by the Spice Girls when you think about Spice o Life Corning.  I mean probably not - I’m not sure anyone but me even thinks of Spice o Life Corning.Blue Cornflower - classic.  Simple.  I like it.Besides the fist platter and a lantern on the patio, this was the only other “under the sea” theme item so I don’t even know where this came from.  (If your wondering it is a paper towel roll holder)Trigger warning for those of you with Celiac disease or gluten intolerance.  You have to remember that the 60’s were a different time.  People ate bread.  All the time.  At every meal.  Enough bread that they had specific bowls to put the bread in.This was just prettyThis isn’t the Fostoria pitcher I’m used to seeing.  It’s kind of squatty and… as the kids would say…thick.  Almost like someone grabbed it and flattened it a bit to fit in the cabinet better.Ahhh…good old Anchor Hocking Wexford glasses…or as I like to call them…Grandma glasses - cause everyone’s grandma had them.  If your grandma didn’t have them, you were fancy.I don’t know why they left those two little wire chicken napkin holders all by them selves on the top shelf there.   Maybe they were jerks.More cornflower - this time the Corning version. Whose came first do you think?  The Fire King or the Corning?  Or was it one of those things where they both just randomly decided to put out Blue Cornflower patterns that were similar but not identical.This looks like we just piled a bunch of stuff top of the stove - which we did.  But like…strategically. Fresh-o-later.  It’s one of those things that you know what it’s supposed to do but also if you think about the name - it really doesn’t make much sense.  There were almost two of every appliance you could think of.  So she would upgrade to the newer model…but she also didn’t get rid of the old one.Pyrex double boiler - and the good kind of Pyrex, not the new formula Pyrex that you use to bake a delicious pan of brownies only to hear it explode all over the kitchen when you accidentally set the pan on the vent burner of the stove and then everyone’s mad at you cause they can’t even eat the brownies cause there’s no way to tell if there’s glass all in them.This is the chrome Sunbeam mixer.  It’s all sleek and futuristic - like it should be in the Jetsons or something.  I love this toaster.  I have no idea if it makes good toast.  But it will look good sitting on your counter!This is the more utilitarian mixer, still slightly futuristic but more boring, dependable.  This is a Hoover can opener/knife sharpener.  Which is confusing on so many levels.  Who thought to combine those two things randomly?  Something that uses a blade to open metal and also something that uses metal to sharpen blades.  Also who knew Hoover made anything other than vacuums.Old school glass jars - most are either liquor or extract - I hope they never got the two mixed up.  Even more bottles.So.  Many.  Questions.  Bottle cozy - ok first why does a liquor bottle need a cozy?  It’s not gonna keep it warm or cool.  Secondly - Poodles. Why?  Who looked at that pattern and was like O.M.G I need to make these!  Oy, with the poodles already - you know.Need to make coffee for 35 people?  We’ve got you covered.I have no idea if this meat slicer works because I’m not allowed to use most sharp objects - I definitely would not be allowed near a circular spinning sharp object.This is, once again, just one of two electric carving knives.I actually think we might have three hand mixers - but don’t quote me on that. It’s a toaster!This is…I think the third food processor - so we are definitely prepared to process some food.It’s really hard to showcase glass - cause you know - it’s see through.  It’s even harder when you have multiple pieces of see through glass in front of each other - but trust me, these jars are all super cute. Also how did that plastic butter dish last this long without a crack? There are like 4 chopping/grinding things on this shelf alone.  Funnily enough none of them could probably grind coffee beans to use in the drop pot.Honestly we usually take these things out of their boxes to display better but the boxes are kind of the best part of these.  Seriously - look at that seal a meal box!  All of our appliance boxes are like white with a picture the appliance, and the name in big black font.  Look at those colors, look at her hair!  Do I think for one second that lady has ever sealed a meal in her life?  No.  Would I have bought it based on that box?  Absolutely.Please tell me no one was actually using electric knives to cut green peppers.  Like….I can literally tear a green pepper apart with my fingers.  That’s not even a brag, sometimes I do it by accident.See more random appliances.None of these smocks fit me.  Which is extremely rude.I know this is what you’re all here for.  The Magnalite. I have no idea why buried the pictures this far down.  Maybe I wanted you to really work for it.This is 17 quart-er.  Great shape.  You could fit a whole Turducken in this baby.  In fact you should.This is the third largest size - can’t remember what the actual quart size is.  You probably can’t fit a turducken in here - maybe just the ducken.This is the smaller roaster - good for maybe a duck or maybe a chicken, but definitely not both.This would be the second largest the 16qt.  Not sure why they felt they needed a 17 qt and a 16 qt but they must have had their reasons.  This could also fit a turducken- just 1 qt smaller.This is the gumbo pot.  The rules of Estate Sale etiquette say that if you buy this on Thursday you must Bering us gumbo that you cooked in it by Sunday.  It’s practically a law.If you get the gumbo pot, you should probably get this to make the rice for the gumbo.  These are not big enough for gumbo so what’s the actual point.This is the insides of the crank phone - I have no idea if they’re good or bad - if everything is there or not or if it would be useable, I mean there isn’t even a number pad, so how could you dial.  But still it’s pretty cool that all that stuff is still in there.Also it just looks so cute.  Kind of reminds me of Beaker from the Muppets.  Seriously imagine trying to explain to a kid these days that you used to have to wind up the phone, to ask some random lady to call someone for you!!!!We’re taking a poll.  Are these just kitschy enough to be cool, too ugly to be kitschy?  We change our minds every day.These are the fanciest tables y’all.  Solid brass legs and railing (why a table needs a railing I don’t know but it does make it feel fancy).  And the inlay in the top - like it almost feels too fancy to even put stuff on, which defeats the whole purpose of a table I suppose.See look at this freaking inlay!!!!I am not helping you move this coffee table.  That is a solid slab of marble - close to 6 ft long.  I’m sure that it would look amazing in your living room and I really want you to buy it.  But I’m not helping you lift it (honestly I don’t think I even could lift this and I wouldn’t want to embarrass myself - you understand)This is a really horrible picture but I just wanted to show off those gorgeous Mid Century legs.We have absolutely no idea what the purpose of these drawers was.  They look like they should come apart but they don’t.  It looks like there’s a lock in the top drawer, but it’s not.  Do I still want them to just put random stuff in.Did you know that Scrooge McDuck earned his first dime shinning shoes?  Just think of it, get you this shoe shine stand and one day maybe you can dive into a silo full of gold coins.  You would most definitely die - but what a way to go.I’m obsessed with this guy.  It looks like he’s in the middle of a quiet panicked scream.Black Forest Cuckoo Clock.   I’m not actually sure if it Cuckoo’s but does it have to?  Not when it looks like that.This is the china I was telling you about!!  The fancy West Germany Fine China Company - making fancy china with North American game fish.  China even a dude would like.There is an entire shelf of this carved onyx, but these horse head bookends are my favorite, the perfect lines, the colors.  Also this picture looks like the elephants have come from far away to pay their respects.  Oh my God, well, if the elephants came to pay their respects the Bassett Hounds are straight up snubbing them! I didn’t realize Bassett’s were so hard core.Even more horses but also we’ve got some tiny donkeys and an even tinier Scottie dog, plus the tiniest bird.Originally I thought this was a dachshund, but then looking at the Bassett Hounds, it could possibly be a Bassett, but honestly it could be whatever you want it to be.This is hammered Aluminum  - Basically when you wanted to look fancy but don’t want to bother polishing the silver (or maybe you don’t even have any silver - bless your heart) You would bring this to parties or pot lucks or church functions.Not sure why but I felt like lining up all of the elephants by size.  It’s quite satisfying isn’t it.This is an old game table.  Basically you can spin the top 90 degrees and then open it and you go from a 2 person table to a 4 person table. Perfect for a game of Bridge, or Cribbage, or Cannasta, or Pinochle, or Gopher ,or Whist, or Egyptian Ratscrew (One of those card games is made up and spoiler alert - it’s not Egyptian Ratscrew)Look at the little wagon.  It’s so cute.  Imagine that on your Thanksgiving table, piled with like rolls, or fall veggies, or napkins.This chair is very ugly but very comfy.  So it evens out.Even if Egyptian art isn’t your thing, I do recommend reading all the tags on these, just for a laugh.Why do all old beer advertisements have clocks on them.  Who is worried about the time when they’re drinking beer?  Was this before the “it’s 5 o’clock somewhere” era?  Did they just sit around waiting for the clock to hit 5 before ordering a beer?  Anyway.  This one is super cool and it works.Sale PictureI told you there was a set of longhorns that probably wouldn’t even fit in a regular car.Check out that little bear climbing the tree in the back there.  He’s so cute.This is sort of like…a hodgepodge of things we didn’t have anywhere else to put.  What even is a hodgepodge?  Hold on I’ll look it up - ok it’s from a Middle French dish called hochepot  which was a mixture of whatever you had on hand.If you are bigger than a toddler please do not try and sit in the toddler chairs.  You hips might not lie, but they can get stuck and trust me it’s not easy to pull them out. I just love this guyI don’t know what the obsession was with birds on the wall in the 60’s and I don’t care cause I love it.This enamel bowl was found in the garage covered in grease.  And look at it now.  Unfortunately for you we’ve had to tack on a cleaning fee so it does raise the price a bit but it’s totally worth it.This trunk is in pretty good shape.  There is even a keyI love these tables.  Like what was the thinking behind these?  You know how sometimes you need a table but you don’t always have the room for a table?  What if you could make the table smaller?  Not much smaller mind you, just a little bit smaller?  Doesn’t sound too exciting?  Well what if we made it look pretty so then it’s like art?  She liked her glass.  And she liked her silver.  So is anyone surprised that we’ve got a lot of silver rimmed glass?This is the fancy version of the hammered aluminum - you only bring this out for the most special occasions.  Like Arbor Day.This is fancy water pitcher you would use with the chaffing dish at your very fancy Arbor Day party.This dish is obviously too large for Arbor Day but it wouldn’t be out of place on your St. Patrick’s day table full of potatoes.The silver on these carving knives is so thin it’s ridiculous.  These are my favorite of the silver rimmed crystal.  But seriously, who looked at Crystal and was like “how can we make this fancier?  I know lets add Silver.”Bud vases are fun.  Cause you know sometimes you just want the one flowerAnd here’s my sister Clara - she was dropped on her head as a child and thinks she can taste color.You know what these things have in common?  They ‘re all tiny versions of bigger things.  A tiny oil lamp.  A tiny pitcher.  A tinier pitcher.  And a tiny vase.  Who doesn’t love tiny stuff.When it comes to Sake, you should make sure you’re on the rice side of history! - I’m sorry that was horrible.  It wasn’t even my joke.One of these things is not like the others.
