Picked this up at a Garage Sale today. Cannot find anything on it. Its a Board Game, the box says it was manufactured in 1982 on the side. All the pieces and parts appear to be in and in great shape.

Any art people know if this is worth anything. I figure it's just a regular poster, but the bottom saying picasso in cursive (yes it's printed) found one similar at an estate sale listing, but no price.

Very rarely are prints like that worth any premium. Sometimes there will be one that was released at a particular gallery event or something that makes it more desirable, but usually they are just mass produced for gift shops

Pretty much what I figured. I was just surprised with the size. Maybe 40"x60"
I did manage to find a Meade 884 Tripod that is used for high end telescopes. Grabbed it for $15 and right now have it listed at $200

Go the each of the school's athletic department site and search for the golf coaches/assistants. Pick one about three down from the head coach and send them that picture, asking if they are familiar with that logo. The lower tier coaches are basically minimum wage interns and will usually go out of their way to help with stuff like this. I've never had an email like that go unanswered.

RobDerhak · 09-28-2021, 08:28 PM

Love it...Tennessee actually has a guy that is in charge of their golf facilities...I reached out to him, thanks for the tip...kind of surprising the Vols have more coaches than Texas...guess times are tough since ruining a 2nd conference down in Austin

I never thought about it that way, that's a really good idea!

EDIT: Also I believe that the hat logo looks like UT Austin and not UT Knoxville.

My reasoning is that Austin's T is flat on the bottom and Knoxville's has curve to it.

Just part of today's 70 dollar haul. That's about 50 card backs.

Tennessee guy didn't reply. Texas guy replied that night, said he didn't think it was either he thought it was a Family Crest (no chance IMO).

I'm gonna list them as Tennessee

I really dont think it is Tennessee. They have not worn UA at all in the last 15 years or longer. They wear Nike now and Adidas for a long time before that. Plus that T on the hat is cut off and looks off.

It is a good feeling when you finally sell something you've had listed for 14 months! I've got my inventory locked up for q4. Lots of games and toys

Nice pickups!

Hess687 · 10-04-2021, 07:23 AM

For those with a Chase Freedom credit card, the quarterly 5% cash back bonus these next three months is any purchase made through PayPal. It's an easy way to make an additional $75 back from all your shipping label purchases if you still have your PayPal account connected through eBay.

Just an FYI.

Do same through pirate ship and the cubic rate they offer is often 1.00 to 2.00 cheaper than on ebay shipping

callou2131 · 10-04-2021, 11:34 AM

Grabbed a sony dvp-cx995v 400 disc changer for $25 yesterday. Works great! Should get $200 to $300. I just hate shipping big electronics.

Hess687 · 10-04-2021, 06:20 PM

Guy messages me last night on a $225 item he bought on September 16th and says he hasn't received his item yet and wanted to know where it was. I check tracking on both eBay and USPS website and it says out for delivery with sig confirmation on September 20th. No one there. Notice left. Tried again on the 25th and USPS told buyer to reschedule delivery by October 4th or it will be returning to me on the 5th.

I tell him all of this last night. I check tracking today to see if he picked it up today. Nope. Looks like it may be coming back to me.

My question is, on an item worth $225, don't you think you'd keep better tabs on it if you paid on the 16th and it still had yet to arrive in over two weeks? At least check tracking. The information is all there for you. Just go get your item.

And Ebay will side with you if he opens a claim. Friend of mine had it happen on a 500.00 item after it was returned he opened a claim with Ebay. Ebay ruled with him. He blocked and refunded him minus the shipping cost once he got the item back.

Found this freaky toy at a sale for 50 cents. Anyone know what it is? The red thing in his hand is a hatchet

Other than using google lens, if you just find a company name on the bottom, just put that into eBay, that’s how I find not only what an item is I have, but at the same time find out what it’s worth.

Signed books used to be an easy find for me...have a 4 row barrister filled with signed books and a couple rubbermaid tubs filled with dupes........lately it is harder to find I noticed my Savers now have signed books up in their cases so I guess they are checking....did find a Jim Kaat and (like my 10th) Ed Hearn over the weekend

Always down to trade dupes for dupes w/ other signed book collectors...anyone can shoot me PM if you want a list
