Post your Garage Sale/Flea Market/Antique Mall Finds Here 59 59

Hit the local flea market yesterday and saw mostly modern drek,coverless Classic Illustrated & beat Dennis the Menace but did manage to find a copy of The Warriors on DVD and got probably the best deal of the day:a BOSE Wave Radio/CD that works great for $10.Sweet!

 

Nice find on the Warriors DVD, but I hope you found the original version! I was thrilled to find a very fancy looking DVD copy (to replace my decades-old VHS) of "The Director's Cut," at a garage sale a few years back. Thrilled, that is, right up until I watched it. Terrible. Completely butchered. They inserted all these comic book panel effects, that completely ruined all the great transitions in the film. Worse yet, they even inserted these ridiculous still panels in some action sequences.

 

I can't go into more detail though, I've tried to wipe the painful memory from my mind.

 

Now, of course, every time I've seen a copy of the Warriors DVD for sale since then, it's always that same terrible cut too. Argh.

I bought all of the Marvel and DCs from this box. About 72 books total. Here are some highlights.

Did you think about just making a $100 offer on the whole box once you saw a few "hits"? (assuming he/she charged you $2 per book you would have come out even further ahead). I find a lot of times people like the clean sweep offer even if its for less money total just to get it sold. Plus there's something about offering $100 that makes people jump..

"No sir, I will not take $100 for the box. Instead pick it clean so I am left with books I cannot sell. Good day."

I can't believe you passed up on that gunsmoke.

DAMN! Those are some nice mid grades!

 

Florida SUCKS for garage sales or flea markets. If its a GA/SA book, you are VERY lucky if its even a 1.0. Even the BA/CA/moderns are pretty freaking beat from the heat and humidity
