Could you please provide me with some sorting tips? I inherited over 1,500 brooches, 100 necklaces, 80 rings, 75 bracelets, etc. I do have it sorted by type and stored in plastic fishing lure type containers that hold 20 in each. Should I take one container at a time? Then go like a conga line. Spitshine it. Test stone with Presidium. Test material with acid. Take photos. Conduct price and use research. Write a description. List for sale. Take the next container. So on. I will obviously need to do some in lots. Am I making this too much work? Likely. On a good note... I don't have any untangling shows to look forward to!! I have had a significant health change, and the last thing I need is to leave this chaos to family. Wait a minute! @vintagescott is a expert lister now.😊 Ever been to Canada Scott?

Hi! A new short brooch quiz is available in the classroom tab to all Premium/VIP members. Comment with your answer below and I will DM every person who answers correctly by Wednesday and they will win a silver mercury dime. If no one answers correctly, the FIRST three closest answers will take home the mercury dime MEGA JACKPOT 😅 I had fun making this and I hope you enjoy. If you're out picking this weekend, I hope you wreck shop!! ❤️🐢, Brad/threefortytwo

Click the classroom tab to access. Yard sale season is just about here for us cold climate people! Sharpen up your people skills and get out there! Have a great day, I'll see you tomorrow night on ye olde Whatnots ❤️🐢, Brad

You're at an estate sale and both brooches are gorgeous, colorful, statement pieces and they are both $40. One is Joan Rivers and the other is Heidi Daus. Which one are you buying and why? Both is an acceptable answer but it is a cop-out 😂

I'm getting a better understanding of how this all works! Please like this post if you received a phone notification for this post and whether you are android or ios. Click the calendar tab and find the live call I scheduled for 3/11 at 1PM est. See if you can add it to your calendar? I will try to record the call and post it for any who miss it. I will be adding more specific content and one on one opportunities for people who wish to be premier members or VIP members. It's similar to a Patreon for YouTube, except you will actually gain something, not just entertainment/mindless video content. Send me a DM here if you want help finding access to this. I'm not ready to cram it down anyone's throat, beyond saying I will do everything in my power to make it worth your while. I posted a very basic item in the Classroom tab if you want to see what that looks like. Expect more fun and involved content there!! I'm feeling SO thankful for 190 members in just a couple days and I truly hope you all get something out of this. ♥ Brad/threefortytwo/Orvis
