ANOTHER great day at the sales. Stopped at an estate sale advertising sterling an hour early to find I was #19 in line, got a ticket, was told to come back at 8am. Thankfully I drove around and stumbled upon another sale that had literally just started. Grabbed a handful of jewelry for $1 and I knew I scored big with that one. Ran back to the estate sale to find they already let everyone inside! Oh well... I went in to find a table with sterling priced at market value. I went to the kitchen to see if the organizers "missed any sterling" and if the 30 people already there missed it too... Somehow amazingly I instantly spotted sterling in a box of misc kitchenwares marked "3.00 lot". Grabbed a German beer mug and paid the cashier the $3.25 for it all and left happy. Stopped by a church rummage sale on my way home and scored a few more pieces of jewelry and 2 records.
I SPENT EXACTLY $5.00 TOTAL AND GOT THE FOLLOWING:

-Merrily We Roll Along Musical Soundtrack LP HALF SPEED MASTERED Audiophile Pressing - open in shrinkwrap
-Merrily We Roll Along Musical Soundtrack LP HALF SPEED MASTERED Audiophile Pressing - STILL SEALED
-2 butter knives/cheese spreaders marked "SSMC Sterling" (handle scrap value only)
-cheese server marked STERLING (handle scrap value only)
-"DANSK" Torun knife rosewood handle
-Forschner Victorinox Carving Set
-"Shultheis Pils" marked West Germany .25 liter beer mug
-pair of TAXCO earrings #328
-DU PONT tie bar/clip marked 1/20 GF 12K with what looks like a diamond in it
-2 chains marked ITALY 925 (1 of them is suspect for being fake)
-2 rings marked 925
-circle pin sun design marked 14K 3.4 grams!

Your carving set is Rosewood, your Torun knife is Teak. Nice finds.
Dig's I am glad you knew that cause I don't know wood... it all looks the same to me..lol I guess the Teak Knife is the one I think is badas.... looking
 

Nice going Ben! The melt value on the earring alone is more than $120! Nice going!

You should do what I did. Set up a free website and add the webstore app. I am making an extra $25-$50 bucks per week with just the camera mount. I bet you could score several hundred per month if you did!

Take care!
