READ THE BEEKROCK THREAD!?

Did I do something wrong?
I saw that you posted in that thread, so I guess that you did see it.
You could write a book about searching houses. You could call it...
AARON'S EXPRESS.
:D
 

WoW!!!!!! Don't forget the obvious places, in sofa and chairs under the cusions, also under all drawers as people use to tape paper money and coins there. Keep us posted and happy hunting....... :D
 

Wow, Aaron. Great adventure...with pics to boot! Thanks so much for sharing it with us. We're excited for you and extremely envious for ourselves ;)
 

A cousins wife just died. he came from Columbus Ohio to visit me last month. Said he's moved out of his big old house built in 1891 and has put it up for sale. Even though it's more than 800 miles from me I asked if I could metal detect around the house.
He said that a neighbor had already done that.
he said this guy turned his detector on and walked slowly up the stairs. Getting a good signal under a wooden step he convinced my cousin to take up the board. The signal persisted. After cutting a large hole in the stair case he "discovered" a ceilng light to the room below.

When you laugh hard it hurts
 

Wow Arron...what treasure hunt you could be in for. Don't let any of the other realitives just start throwing stuff away. I have seen that happen. Some people that aren't into "old" stuff think you should just get rid of all the junk.
 

If and when you do start selling on eBay,make sure you give us your username.Maybe post it in the eBay treasures section on this forum.I know i'll be looking and bidding when you do.Truly an unbelievable find of a house. 8)
 

Updates!!!

Here are some of the newest finds! I feel like a pirate!! Haha


First item is a VERY small pistol, about 4? long! It says ?North American Arms? on it. Any idea of the age? Also, I KNOW it is loaded, but I do not know how do unload it. I will bring it to a gun shop.

Second is a Smith & Wesson ?32? ?CTGE?. No other details on that one!

Here is a HORRIBLE idea! It?s a PEZ dispenser? and the candy comes from the barrel! Let?s just put guns in our mouths! Haha

I?ll keep everyone posted!
 

Here are some toys:

Pic one is of some cars.

The clear one is a Schuco 1005. It is the rarest color and min perfect (NOTHING wrong) shape. It is a wind up car.

The red car is also in perfect shape, but is missing the pole you would push in the back to make it shoot across the floor!

See the little red buggy? That is a pristine (no wear anywhere) 1967 Hot Wheels Hot Heap. Even the bottom looks new! Fresh from the package? 40 years ago!

The 3 blue and one green are unknown Tootsietoys, all the same.

The white truck thing and the red truck thing are Matchbox. White is No.61, red is No.35

Pic two is of some plush? well, technically I guess, but they sure aren?t soft! I know nothing about these except what you see.

Hi,
The North American, you unscrew the knurled screw under the barrel, and take out the cylinder to remove the bullets. They made these in the late '70- early '80's.

WOW! That PEZ gun is rare!!

I don't know if it's true; but I've heard that eBay actually started as a Pez trading site.
Good luck at this house; sounds like it will keep you busy for quite some time ;)
