Went to a Goodwill this afternoon and normally I'm looking for vintage computers and other quick things to sell but this Annora Spence print lying around.  Picked it up for 19 bucks.  Took only 20 minutes to clean off the grime and dirt.  Whoever owned it had some taste

Who buys "vintage computers" and actually uses them?

They are collectibles nowadays.  I buy them, fix and clean them, and sell them.

How vintage are we talking? And when you mean fix them, what does that entail?

Ok, I'll bite. That painting (looks like a watercolor) is something that a 9 year old could produce. That is not talent

Fine art is another racket abused by the rich. Inflate the value of some abstract piece of shit, that looks like someone vomited onto a canvas, and then create a premium market.

Just a bunch of douches who have too much time and money.

None of this has anything to do with Goodrum, other then he is a moron, who likes art that belongs on a mom's refrigerator.

As previously discovered-you have zero taste or even the slightest clue as to what actual good art is

Someone could take a shit in a bowl and photograph it-and as long it was a low price-you'd rave about it and buy it

It might make it to the foyer for guests to appreciate if it happens to feature diarrhea sprinkles on top of the main turd.

Vince Goodrum, CSN, MFT, HHP, CEO, I am wondering if you can try to look for the original Mona Lisa at a goodwill or house sale.

This is what I do on my spare time...go around to flea markets, Goodwill, yard sales, etc and look for hidden treasures to sell for profit.  I'm actually going back there tomorrow as there may be some more around the vicinity....I doubt that that was the only one there as the original owner prob had more pieces.

I know plenty of people who do this. I have family members who do this; however, they do not resell. They collect antiques. House is PACKED with antiques. You can barely walk. You can't even see the paint on their wall, since every wall is covered with stuff.

Its a very selective market...last finds I had was a Tandy 200 along with some Magnavox Odyssey games still in the box.  Fixing them usually entails some solder work on resistors but usually not much stuff.  Main thing is to clean them.  Sometimes even non working items have a lot of value.  


Just have to know what you're looking at more than the person selling it

Vince does goodwill in your area have these bargain bins of stuff you can buy by the lb?

I ask because I have a friend who does that and buys buy the lb at a very low price since the stuff isn't really sorted. Anyway it's a lot of shit but sometimes there are some great finds. She focuses mostly on looking for high end very lightly used women's clothes.

Maybe you could make a profit using this strategy as well, you seem to know what to look for.
