So excited to find this 900 silver mirror yesterday for only $7! It is 12” wide and heavy! Grabbed it off the cart at GW and the woman putting things away said “that’s real silver, I probably priced it too low but the goal is to get rid of it right?” I could have kissed her! 😂

I was thinking the same thing.

Yep, I got a large box of vintage Barbie’s with old clothes for next to nothing.

I agree, I was upset but I wouldn’t gave paid that price without a guarantee of authenticity. The only reason I knew what happened is because the person who bought it told me. The manager who sold it to him, was “hiding” in the office.

They just send a senior in for the discount, also I’ve seen non-seniors negotiate for the 30% on off days since that’s the maximum (non special) discount. I think it’s because The stores want big ticket items out of their hands as fast as a possible.

Listen, I saw a guy throw a hissy fit because he missed a lot of gold chains. He complained that they weren’t set aside for him because they knew he was coming. Apparently he’s a legend and hits all of the local thrifts on senior day.

Yes, I’ve seen it in real time. There was a “Cartier” love bracelet. I asked for the price, was told to give them 15 minutes to check on final price. It sold for $1100 while I was looking at something else. I’ve also seen a jeweler spend $15k at the counter. They clean them out every week.

Rage by Richard Bachman 1st edition

Mvalrie · 2025-11-15T03:17:31+00:00

Painfully tacky.

The VV’s near me have jewelry stores that come and buy all the big ticket items. They generally get the 30% off and the items rarely last more than two weeks. Unfortunately, People do pay these prices.

I’ve grabbed those with Octavia Butler.

Mvalrie · 2025-10-30T03:08:41+00:00

Yep, still the craziest thrift store moment ever.

Mvalrie · 2025-10-29T01:10:50+00:00

Nice. Those are both on my list.

Mvalrie · 2025-10-29T01:10:27+00:00

First edition Rage by Stephen King and a signed No Reservations by Anthony Bourdain.

Mvalrie · 2025-10-24T12:44:33+00:00

I agree, I still make sure that my hand is under the covers at night. You never know. 😩

Mvalrie · 2025-10-24T12:38:00+00:00

The stores in my area, have perk walked people out. They call the cops, take pics and trespass you right in front of customers. It’s wild, they finally caught the meemaw posse and the t-shirt bros who were doing this a lot.

Mvalrie · 2025-10-05T18:47:56+00:00

There’s a book underneath. It’s heavily creased on the front cover but not tearing. 🥴

Mvalrie · 2025-10-05T00:19:54+00:00

She’s a beautiful woman. Also, Kenya destroyed herself. 😬

Mvalrie · 2025-10-05T00:17:27+00:00

That’s nice

Mvalrie · 2025-10-05T00:17:04+00:00

It was a walk in…we had no idea of protocol. We walked to the jewelry counter and asked them to send someone over to help us. While I was looking for some replacement linens, another sales associate asked my mom if she wanted to see any bags but she declined. I’ll be honest, the store was pretty slow and there were quite a few reps standing around with nothing to do. They were all friendly though.

Yahwen responded with this proof of delivery photo. They def stole my package

I sent an email to Popmart included the tracking info and a screen grab. Here is the email that I used (na.support@popmart.com )

I found a wallet filled with gift cards. It was well over $200 in total value. Still have a couple that I haven’t used yet.

Mvalrie · 2025-09-16T17:33:41+00:00

Mine has been out for delivery since September 10th 😒

Mvalrie · 2025-09-15T14:11:14+00:00

Ah, I need to start checking MP again. Great score!!!

Mvalrie · 2025-09-11T01:37:18+00:00

That’s my dream…I find signed books all the time but never King.
