yard sale scores

i love yard sales and the boards that come from them. post yours up!

 

i found the no name twinnie this morning in my neighborhood. the nuuhiwa dyno fish showed up last week,

You guys will kill me with this stuff.  I never find $#!t.

here is a g&s paddleboard i found last spring. i wish it could tell me how it got here. i sent it back to a concerned citizen in san diego

I live in Bakersfield - don't find a lot of surfboards at yardsales here.  But my wife (selling antiques collectibles and books is her business) is a hardcore yardsaler, and I'm semi-core.  I've found tons of great tools, including my skil 100, but also routers, bessey clamps, Kreg pocket hole jig, etc. 

Found a book in the trash at one yardsale - they gave it to me for free - autographed by author Teddy Roosevelt.  Got $500 for that one.  Found a surfing book by John Severson - sold it on ebay to a dude in Hawaii - named John Severson!!  Once bought a shoebox full of belt buckles at an estate sale - every one turned out to be a genuine civil war buckle, ebay payed my rent and groceries off that shoebox for one month!   One estate sale they gave me a big stack of wet/dry sandpaper for free! 

The downside is my house is overrun with stuff she sells, to the point I really can't invite anyone over, and she won't let me do anything about it 'cuz its her business.
