		<description><![CDATA[My 5 favorite finds for the week of Oct. 5. Includes prices!!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’ll give you the story that goes with each item, what I paid for it at a local estate auction, and how much I got for it on eBay. Maybe you have some cool auctions in your area and you can do this too!</p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img title="snoopy great pumpkin" src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/0/3/7/8/2/0/webimg/303394879_o.jpg" alt="Snoopy garden flag" width="400" height="341" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Snoopy garden flag</p></div>
<ol>
<li><strong>garden flag</strong> with Snoopy and a pumpkin: I bought an entire box of not new garden flags for 1.00 for the whole box. I sold many of the flags at a flea market for 1.00 each. I kept a few that I thought were nicer and that had a holiday theme. I recently listed 3 “fall” ones on ebay and the Snoopy one sold for 33.99 (I was hoping for about 5.00).</li>
<li><strong>rhinoceros costume</strong>: I have a lot of  costumes on eBay right now because I bought over 50 costumes at an estate sale for 1.00 each. I also got some costume parts and pieces for 10/1.00. These were all new-in-the-bag costumes. This rhino costume had an original price on it of 24.99 and I sold it for 16.40 so everyone got a good deal!</li>
<li><strong>Cinderella costume</strong>: This was a very nice quality costume that
<div id="attachment_62" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-62" title="cinderella costume" src="http://www.everythingvintagesteff.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/cin1-150x150.jpg" alt="cinderella costume" width="150" height="150" /><p class="wp-caption-text">cinderella costume</p></div>
<p> I bought a few months ago and put it away for this time of year. I had to wash it since there was dirt on the skirt but it came right out. It was not new but it was in like new condition (after I washed it!). I paid 1.00 for an entire box of clothing and this was in the box, along with a waitress costume, and 2 others (that I also sold). The Cinderella costume sold for 12.06.</li>
<li><strong>brown leather women’s jacket</strong>: I bought this at an auction last year and paid 2.00 for it along with 2 other leather jackets for 2.00 each. They all fit me (yea!) so I wore this one for a while and then decided I didn’t need it any more. It sold for 15.50 so someone else also got a great bargain!</li>
<li><strong>Sears catalog</strong> from 1966 fall/winter. I paid 2.00 for this and sold it for 13.01. It was in good condition with a little wear. This was an average price for the 60s. I also had a 1970 one that I did not sell, so I am going to list it in my <a title="my eBay store" href="http://www.everythingvintagesteph.com" target="_blank">eBay store</a>. If I ever find the Christmas Sears catalogs, I will snatch those up because they can sell on eBay for up to and over 100$ depending on age and condition.</li>
</ol>
<p> Hope these examples help you find some bargains or help you price your own JUNK!</p>
