Overlooked at the Bins

 

So I went to the Bins and spent 55$ when I spoke sharply to myself about NO MORE SOURCING. I went in thinking I would choose judiciously. But in a matter of moments that notion went out the door. I found such fabulous stuff that was overlooked by the other sellers and flippers. 

These skates are a BOLO. More or less, kids are skating more and at the skating rink. I picked up two pairs that the African delegation did not want. They were there in force and the bins must have just been changed out when I arrived. They were attacking the shoe bins like I've never seen before. They were filling baskets and totes with shoes then taking the shoes to their "stations" and ruching back for more. I am done with shoes. I am able to move them, but it's slow.

They left behind the skates. Practically brand new and sell preowned on Ebay in the 80$ range.

Then this beauty

 This is the back. Its an Apache coat. They are on Ebay for over $100 preowned.

I picked up vintage sheets still in their packaging circa mid 1960's.

A cool cowboy hat.

A ton of polybags! I couldn't believe no one grabbed them! I mail so many things in a polybag!! 

And the list goes on, expensive coctail dress, a vintage carry on luggage piece for cosmetics and jewelry!, stuffed horse plush with tag still attached. I have not had much luck with plushes but I still pick them up!, an embordered shit, and a Santa Fe t-shirt that has a hippie VW on the front (super cool).

This is why I can not resist the bins.
