Sunday's Picks... A Leica Camera and Tea Time at the Tiki Bar

I have been real busy at work this past couple weeks. I even forced myself to work on Saturday this week, lol. So all my finds came from today. I didn't take a picture of everything but here is the most of it-

First is the jewelry. Included is a ladies Guess watch, and an Alex and Ani Capricorn bracelet. The sterling silver finds include a nice heavy 55+ gram bracelet and a lapis lazuli? pendant, five pairs of earrings and a sterling Leica Camera tie tack or lapel pin (too bad it's not the actual camera). Total sterling weight without the pin or the pendant is 94+ grams. Here are some photos-

I also found some collectible "AKU AKU" Tiki mugs. Don't laugh, they are worth $50 each all day long. I got 4 of them.

And here is a set of 3 Paragon tea cups and saucers with butterfly handles.
Prices are varied on these ranging from $50 for a pair to $300, go figure. Now I see why people will list something with a crazy price. Sometimes crazy people will buy!

Not pictured is a vintage Pan Am tote bag and sealed deck of cards and a vintage Dan Marino Rawlings jersey. Two brass inkwells, both need TLC. A new coffemaker for the house. A couple perfumes and colognes tops it off.
I spent a total of $47 on everything pictured plus another $15 0n the items not pictured.

Nice picks. I need to find better stomping grounds :)
 

Nice finds, Dig!!!

I was hoping that you found a real Leica camera. I've only seen one real Leica out in the wild, and they wanted way too much for it. I think that model was selling on ebay for $200, and the estate company wanted $300...and someone bought it within the first few minutes of the sale.
 

Boy you hit it out of the park with bases loaded.

Yeah, I have only seen one in the wild too. Unfortunately, the guy in front of me snatched it up for $40. This was a couple years ago. The guy that got it is a friend of mine and my biggest competition. I'm always looking though. I think the pin should be worth $20 to someone who is into Leica's. That's what i'm gonna list it for anyway, we'll see.
